“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.”
