Vacation rentals with beach access in Tompkins County

The location is great—right by the lake with stunning views. The apartment was clean, cozy, and well-equipped with everything we needed. The host was responsive and made sure our stay was comfortable. Highly recommend this spot for a peaceful getaway

Three of us stayed at Peggy’s place for a weekend and my only regret is not booking for longer! The location is a dream—right on the lake and only a few minutes drive from the farmer’s market and other must-see places in Ithaca. I hope to come back!

A small, cozy apartment with a spectacular view of Lake Seneca. The location was perfect for visiting wineries, breweries and taking in the foliage. We found the apartment to have all that we needed and was neat and clean. Mr. Lester lives above the apartment and he made sure we had all we needed and gave us our privacy. Kimberly was quick to respond whenever we had a question. Although this was a small apartment for the four of us( 2 couples), it was the perfect spot to rest for the next day.

David & Debby are wonderful hosts! We had a cold and rainy weekend for our stay, but their cozy home was just perfect to keep us warm and snug. Comfy beds, squeaky clean, and such a beautiful view. We will definitely be back!

Copper Barn was a great fit for my partner and I. Close to the lake, bars and restaurants. Newly renovated and comely decorated — it felt just like home. Gorgeous bay window, cute low bed, shower fit for two. We had a quaint and cozy evening after a long day of hiking. If you check out Seneca Stag bar, get the bbq brisket sandwich. You’ll find a hardy omelette at the diner across the street from there in the morning.

I can’t say enough about how wonderful Peggy’s boat house is. This is my second time staying here and I have never stayed at the same ABB twice. This time I brought the kids because I wanted to share the beauty of this place and Ithaca and I knew they would love it. Sitting on the dock fishing and enjoying the views on Cayuga lake is so peaceful and relaxing. Peggy is a very welcoming host and keeps the place very tidy. There are so many things to do. Ithaca Falls is a very short drive away. Buttermilk Falls is a bit further away (not much) and is a beautiful hike. Great restaurants are nearby. I love the area and would love to come back someday.

The studio apartment is spacious, well appointed, private and so artistically adorned. Lake views abound. Being the early riser with my dogs I thoroughly enjoyed sitting with my morning coffee under the covered private porch listening to nature’s morning music. Dan was very attentive to our needs and all details for his place as well as local places of interest. My husband was equally impressed with the TV set up again not a bad seat in the house. He could watch his sports from the bed or the couch and still have lake views to boot. Our trip was early spring as everything is preparing to blossom. I can only imagine how great of a stay summer and fall would be here. Looking forward to our next visit.

Above and beyond what we anticipated...the view, the private patio, and the comfortable and clean cottage were delightful, as well as the hosts!!

We had a wonderful few days at Marshall’s place. It was the perfect winter getaway! The house was just as described and pictured in the listing. The view is incredible! It was very cozy and perfect for our family. My boys enjoyed the hot tub and the games provided, as well. All of the details provided in advance left us with no questions! Marshall also periodically checked in with us and even extended our check out time. We had a great time and would love to come back at some point in the future! Thank you Marshall for opening up your home to us. We truly enjoyed it.

Martha's place is lovely. Adorable cottage in a great location. It's a short drive to town for restaurants. stores and parks. The lake is so beautiful and peaceful, a quiet little spot with a beautiful view. It was exactly what we needed, and a great view to relax by. The kitchen was nicely equipped also for preparing a few meals. Thank you for sharing your cottage.

Great spot right on the water overlooking Cayuga lake. we enjoyed beautiful sunrises and moonrises from the porch. It's also only 5-10m from downtown Ithaca, and 5m from taughannock falls, 15m from Cornell. Seneca lake wineries /breweries only 25m away. Property extremely well appointed: not cluttered, but still enough kitchenware, bedding, games, etc. The elevator via the driveway is great (and a fun quirk!) but I might recommend using the lower lot (via Ithaca yacht club) for bigger unloading/loading. we also enjoyed evening walks to the IYC kids park and nearby waterfalls. Glenwood pines also only a 5m walk (or 1m ride) for a quick bite. overall highly recommend! Cayuga nature center/treehouse was also close and fun for kiddos.

Wow! What a nice place! Close to downtown Ithaca and a short drive to Cornell. Best part of all: gorgeous views of Lake Cayuga and access to the lake. We loved it! Many Ithaca AirBnBs are dark and dreary. Not this place! It was bright and beautiful. Be sure you can navigate steps effectively, because you’ll need to take many to get to this AirBnB. The benefit is that this place is quiet and secluded. Thanks for the great stay!

Amy and Valerie were very kind and helpful to us. Beds were comfy, make sure you look at photos to know what to expect.

Wonderful home and location. Wished the weather would have been nicer the weekend we were there to take advantage of the lovely lakeside accommodations. Was very easy to get to Cornell and downtown for our functions. Hope to stay again! Thank you.

Dominic's place was awesome. The house was excellent and our kids (12, 10, 8 and 6) had a blast. The location was centrally located for all the amenities Ithaca has to offer (restaurants, breweries, waterfalls). We would for sure come back for another stay.

This place has a sweeping lake view from a bay front window, a patio, both queen bedrooms, another patio and the dock. the picture don't do it justice. The dock has a picnic table - if you're not using it, you're missing out! There's two single person kayaks and a double kayak, as well as a a stand-up paddle board, which makes this place an amazing value and are close enough to Ithaca (about a mile) that you could reasonably paddle to a landing at Truman Marine Park or Stewart Park. This place is down approximately 90 steps - pack light.

Another great ski weekend at Greek Peak! The shuttle directly from the house to the mountain is unbeatable. I love that every house I stay in at Greek Peak has similar charm, and this one is no different. We loved being able to fit our group all in one spot, with plenty of room to hang out, cook dinner, and play games after a long day on the slopes

Lori was amazing at communicating with us about some issues we had leading up to our visit. We had a wonderful time and enjoyed every minute of our stay!
