Thank you for looking at our historic carriage house in the middle of the quiet Fall Creek neighborhood in downtown Ithaca.

During the academic year our apartments are filled mostly with hard-working Cornell doctoral students, but during the summer we provide hospitality for neat and respectful short-term travelers visiting Ithaca or the surrounding areas.

Our two carriage house apartments have fresh bedding and towels, sterilized between visitors in our heavy-duty enormous washing machine and dryer, which are also available for use during your stay. We have new pots and pans and dishes, and of course a coffee maker. Our on-site manager lives in the first floor of the main house on the property, and makes sure your stay is pleasant.

This year we have new induction stove tops, a great new way to cook! We are using real stainless steel now, not non-stick pans. No more flaking pans!

Apartment A (this listing) has 4 bedrooms, with 2 queen beds and 2 full beds. We have ceiling fans in nearly every room, and multiple window air conditioner units are installed for hot days. We do not have central AC, so some areas of the apartment may be warmer than others on the hottest days.

There is a full bath and a half bath, and a family room that separates the upstairs bedrooms.

Apartment A was designed to be my own home when I lived at 811 N. Tioga St. I like wood, and we created all kinds of unusual wood features in this warm and homey abode. The kitchen-living-dining room is 40 feet long, with wood flooring, wood-covered walls, and wood shelves and beams. The upstairs has wide plank pine from around 100 years ago, recently refinished.

A giant commercial restaurant sink with built-in stainless steel counter space make cooking easy while you visit. We try to provide everything you need, including decent, recent pots and pans! Of course there is a dishwasher to wash the dishes we provide.

We hope you will choose us, and after you leave we welcome your honest review of our property and performance to help future travelers.
