Leslie was so friendly and helpful, and the care she puts into making her guests comfortable is unparalleled. She left literature specific to our needs and interests on the bed, made a beautiful breakfast (pictured, but also included bacon and muffins), and recommended future places to visit the next time we are in Upstate New York. We also took advantage of the picnic lunch for our day at Seneca Falls - we left with full bellies and fond memories of our stay. We can't recommend Besemer Station enough!

As an alumna of Ithaca College, I like to return to Ithaca often. The Inn on Columbia is my go-to…read moreplace to stay, and, when my niece also enrolled at IC, it became the go-to spot for my brother's family, too. The Inn is a unique collection of houses and rooms close to downtown Ithaca - walking distance! Upon arriving, I'm greeted by hosts Madeline and Kenn--and the most amazing smells from Madeline's kitchen! Between the local apple cider and the amazing breakfasts, I tell myself calories don't count at the Inn. Some things to note: -Kenn is an architect, see if you can get him to talk about the history of building the inn -The Inn is dog friendly!! -Snag the gazebo is you're wanting some privacy -Bring hiking boots and explore the nearby trails -Book early... there might be times you can be spontaneous, but for big weekends (alumni/reunion, commencement), the rooms book up WAY in advance

As good as it gets! The owners, Ken and Madeline were such wonderful hosts and very resourceful…read more Madeline prepares the daily breakfasts, which were so delicious and nutritious (e.g. waffles, frittatas, homemade granola, fruit, etc.). Breakfast offerings change daily and she uses the freshest ingredients; I'm super picky and every option sounded scrumptious. It was hard to choose just one! HIGHLY recommend the Gazebo room; it is a standalone room situated towards the back of the property and is very private and romantic. The decor is simple, yet elegant. It includes an oversized jet tub, spacious bedroom and bathroom and mini fridge. There is also a fireplace in the room and is stocked with lavender toiletries. My boyfriend and I appreciated the attention to detail in this room. We will absolutely be back! Madeline and Ken were happy to recommend activities and restaurants as well. There is a lot to do in the area and I cannot wait to visit in the fall. Parking off-street, wi-fi, delicious cookies and juice served in the evenings, beautiful grounds and the list goes on. You will NOT be disappointed with this lovely bed and breakfast.

Thank you to Brie & Matt for an absolutely perfect event! Our event was held on their meticulously manicured lawn & gardens.

The farm setting and the eclectic art throughout the home make this a really interesting place to stay. Highly recommended.

Remove room air conditioners to decrease street noise in non-summer months, open the front entrance to the house rather than the side door and provide at least a part time innkeeper presence.

My husband and I stayed at the Candlelight Inn near Ithaca in June 2011. We only stayed one night…read more It was nice and included a delicious breakfast that gave more food than the two of us could finish, including baked goods, fruit, milk and coffee and tea and juice, and scrambled eggs with some veggies and cheese mixed in. We were asked in advance if we had any dietary restrictions, and there was no sense that special food requests would be any imposition. Rather, the owner seemed very concerned with making sure we had the best experience possible. We had a two room suite, as it was the only room with a king size bed available. (My husband rolls around too much for us to share any bed smaller than a king.) The suite had a second bed in the other room of the suite, a comfy twin size I laid on while watching TV. The cost of the two room two bed suite was favorably comparable to a single room at a niceish hotel. The decor is...aggressively quaint, very kitschy, but unobjectionable. There was also free wifi, not super fast, but perfectly adequate for checking email and other light use. The wifi is unsecured, so you won't want to do anything sensitive over it, like banking. Couple fairly minor downsides-no elevator, which isn't a huge deal in a two story house, but I don't think they had any first floor bedrooms, so I don't think the location is handicapped accessible. Also, we weren't told at check in that the pool was part of the property (we thought it might be a neighbor's.) Had we known, we definitely would have made use of it. Overall, this is definitely a good option if you're staying in the Ithaca area!
