Family-friendly vacation rentals in Elmira

We really enjoyed our time at Randall’s lake house! It has a beautiful view of the lake and is an easy drive to downtown Ithaca. Randall was very responsive and provided very clear instructions. Highly recommend!

We very much enjoyed our stay and the home. Meg was very responsive and helped us with any questions or needs we had during our stay. The house is just as advertised, clean, comfortable, kitchen was well stocked. Two minor issues: bed pillows were thin and hot tub is on the small side for 4 average sized adults. View was exceptional, neighboring houses are not visible from property, so very private. Great place to stay, within 15-20 minutes driving distance to many wineries, distilleries and all the Finger Lakes have to offer. We had a lovely time!

We had the best girls overnight! We loved how secluded and peaceful the house was. The surroundings were beautiful and we enjoy every minute. On the deck it felt as though you were at a retreat. The house was plenty big for the group of 6 we had and it was very clean and tidy. So thankful for all the amenities and how stocked the cabinets were with must haves. Our only complaint was that we wish we had planned 2-3 nights instead of 1. Would looooove to come back and make it a yearly stay. Thank you for sharing your amazing place 🙏

We loved the place,just wished we could have stayed longer. The view of the lake is amazing!!

What a beautiful, relaxing home. i needed a place to relax after a long day of volunteering and this was beyond my expectations.

Lizzie’s cabin is clean, well-appointed and a perfect space to share with friends and family! The VIP of our weekend was the brand new hot tub overlooking the property from a beautiful new deck! Would definitely stay again!

Zachary was one of the most helpful, responsive hosts I have come across with incredibly prompt responses to every text/email. From the moment we arrived we had high confidence all would go well and this is 95% of the game as far as I am concerned. We were a bit concerned upon arrival that street noise might be an issue but it turned out to not be at all.

We loved our stay! So peaceful, a great place if you want a true get-a-way! Our dogs loved the property as well, the hot tub was super private and great to relax in.

Our second time here and we look forward to returning. It is peaceful, cozy, has all comforts of home and is surrounded by great backyard with walking trails that are beautiful. We definitely recommend.

Katherine and Jia's place worked very nicely for my weeklong trip to Ithaca! It's a great size for one or two guests and was very clean. I found the bed very comfortable and appreciated the quiet neighborhood. Recommend!

Our out of state family converged at the farm for a long weekend. The farm was cozy and comfortable. John was attentive yet allowed for privacy. Everything needed was available. We all felt at home, loved watching the many birds at the feeders, and were able to cook all our meals easily and enjoy family time. We had conversations around the warm fire and games at the table. Though it was cold outside, measures were in place to ensure comfortable temperatures inside. We would happily go there again.

We have stayed here several times and always enjoyed it!

The house was beautiful and proximity to the brewery so much fun!

Michele and Andy were friendly, helpful, hospitable hosts, and their farm is beautiful! We enjoyed a relaxing weekend surrounded by their horses, cows, fields and forests. The house itself has rustic, unpolished, handmade charm and is decorated very tastefully. The bed was comfortable, the wood stove was easy to use and helped us stay warm for our winter visit. Michele was accommodating of our arrival and departure times, going out of her way to try to help us adjust plans to match the weather. She was also very helpful in providing restaurant recommendations and information about the area. We highly recommend staying here!

A great outdoorsy and rustic place to stay. Clean with good vibes and relaxing views. Very friendly cats. Outdoor shower was clean with its own heater and had decent water pressure. At night small lights were blinking like fireflies so you could find your way with beautiful ambiance. I would certainly go again here.

Everything there are were perfect, but in one room the blanket had so strong smell of baby pee(

Gratitude and Grace is an escape from the ordinary. Its a beautiful unique property in the country that was just about perfect for me and 7 bridesmaids for my low key Bachelorette. The grounds are lovely and well maintained, as it is normally a wedding venue. The inside of the mansion is eclectic and vintage. Ron is very nice and accommodating as well. Some things i may improve: Soap was watered down in all bathrooms Beds werent exactly comfortable, they seemed very old. Hot tub was just nice, It didnt get very hot though and the water was a bit cloudy The most comfortable bed is in the tiny rennovated garden shed. Although peaceful, we did have to request it be opened so we had the 8th bed as advertised. 2 girls had to bunk up together the 1st night, no big deal but would have been nice to know the 8th bed wasnt automatically available. The 7th bed is a fun loft with a ladder above a king sized bed. It was cute, but the bed was very uncomfortable so no one wanted it.

We loved this place!! There was so many amenities that we weren’t able to use because we weren’t in the house a ton as we were in a wedding, but boy did we miss out on them! We had a perfect stay and would absolutely stay again if we were ever in the area again. No complaints at all!

A great rustic getaway! It was great being between cayuga and seneca lakes - everything was a 20 min drive to see beautiful falls in every direction, great wineries/cideries (finger lakes cider house had amazing food to go with the cider), great restaurants (stonecat and elf in the oak) and Ithaca Farmer's Market (must see - so plan a Sat or Sun there). Sunsets were fabulous from the porch and over the fields and the hens were a joy to experience - so cute - and the gentle Q was so good with our cautious rescue pup. But the best part of the stay was Carey's hospitality - tending to every need and providing great suggestions of things to do/see tailored to our interests and giving us a true taste of the area - with local fresh eggs, fruit, wonderful baked bread, granola, cider, wine, cheese, baked goods and the best yogurt ever! We didn't even miss the tv (during football and world series even)!

One of our favorite AirBnb experiences! This place was perfect for our family to get together under one roof. Joan and Leo were very pleasant and easy to communicate with and were extremely flexible with our requests. The home was beautifully decorated and we were able to have great family dinners in the huge dining room! The amenities were many which made for a fun, relaxing and enjoyable vacation. Highly recommend this place and hope to come back to stay again!

We had a fantastic stay at Deborah's property! The location was perfect for exploring the Finger Lakes, and the house was cozy and accommodating for our group of six, plus our dog. It was also infant-friendly, which made our stay even more comfortable. The hot tub and games were definite highlights, adding to the fun as we traveled from Canada to connect with family. Deborah's communication was excellent throughout our stay. I highly recommend this property!

A great place in a great location! This was perfect for our three day getawa.! We enjoyed several state parks, Ithaca Farmer's Market, Ithaca Commons and, of course, Purity Ice Cream...all within a scenic 20 min drive. I had fun with the piano (Charmingly just slightly out of tune and janky. Good for Beatles jams, not so much the Beethoven.) The hot tub nice for our hike-tired legs. I want to come back in the summer to see how these lovely gardens bloom!

WE LOVED THE PLACE! Carrie and John were amazing hosts and their wonderful RV elevated our experience and memories that my boyfriend and I will be sure to cherish for a lifetime. For those of you wondering, a bathroom (toilet and shower stall) is located in the RV, however we preferred their bathhouse which was within easy walking distance. Kitchen is fully equipped with basic necessities such as utensils, pots, basic condiments etc. We appreciated the availability of an outdoor gas grill and gas stove that were fully functional. Also it's worthy mentioning there is a fire pit fully stacked with an ample amount of firewood [and a hilly-billy pool which we didn't get to enjoy due to weather]. For those who are planning on a day trip for Ithaca's beautiful scenery, the Buttermilk Falls State Park is about 20 minutes drive; and 15 minutes drive to the nearest Dollar General store should there be any last minute shopping. Overall, Carrie and John were very responsive and accommodating, hel

Gorgeous retreat, perfect size for our family with nine adults and three grandkids. Tons of space and sleeping choices that we didn't even use. Planning to return during warmer weather to enjoy the inground pool and to linger on the front porch to watch the stunning sunset.
