Pros

Private Buttermilk Trail connects to 70 acres of lawns, ponds, gardens, and forest

Most pet-friendly rooms offer direct outdoor access via private decks

The Upper Tower Room features a unique mirrored conical ceiling with skylight

On-site bar exclusively serves local wines, beers, and spirits

Cons

8 miles distance from Ithaca Tompkins Regional Airport

Limited dining options with only breakfast service at The Bistro

“Nestled near Buttermilk Falls and Cornell University, this inn emphasizes local experiences, from wine tastings to artisanal meals. I appreciate the pet-friendly policies and direct room access to the outdoors. The spa and natural setting also stand out, though some may find the décor a bit dated.”
