Historic Home near Cornell campus
We really loved the home, especially it's location as it enabled our son to walk to class and return to spend family time within minutes. Amenities were great, as we cooked and appreciated the sugar, oil and such as well as cooking utensils. We did struggle a bit with the furniture, as both the couch and kitchen chairs were relatively uncomfortable for any extended period of time. We're recommending to the owners that they upgrade these, after which this rental will be tip top in our opinion and our go to for visiting our son during his time at Cornell College!

Visit to Cornell
We brought our daughter up to see Cornell and found this gem that let us really get a feel for Mt Vernon. It was exactly as described. And nice to be able to make ourselves breakfast in the morning. To be close to campus - literally across the street - this is very much worth it.

Nice place and great location.
Stayed here to visit our son at Cornell College. The property was as advertised, clean, and a very short walk to campus. It was perfect for our short stay.
