Hands down the best VRBO we have stayed at! Very clean, a kitchen that was well equipped, a lot of extras such at an outside pizza oven, hot tub and such great woodwork and decorating inside this home. Games and area for our granddaughters to have space downstairs too. A true treasure!! They even left us cider and syrup as a welcome gift. A

Family Thanksgiving

My children, grandchildren, and I thoroughly enjoyed our Thanksgiving stay at this beautiful home. It not only had the necessities, but it also had many extras like houseplants, an aroma diffuser, all the lotions and soaps we could use, games and activities, etc. There was plenty of kitchen equipment for us to make Thanksgiving dinner, pancakes, pizza, etc. And it is beautiful!

Beautiful, Well-Built Home

We very much enjoyed our stay at Cayuga Hill Homestead. The hosts communicated promptly and left thoughtful check-in gifts and notes. Everyone who used the kitchen remarked on how well-outfitted it is. The house as a whole is well-appointed. Children especially enjoyed all of the board games, the foosball and ping pong tables, and the soaking tubs, Unlike many Vrbo homes, this house looked and felt new and luxurious. We hope to return in the future.

Another Great Stay!

This was our second stay at the Cayuga Homestead! Despite the rainy weather, everything was excellent. We enjoyed the TV on the main floor and watched many movies and relaxed. Kids had fun playing games in the basement. Kitchen had everything we needed and we took advantage of the waffle maker this time. What a hit! Excellent communication from Daura. Highly recommend!

Amazing in Every Way

This is easily one of the best vacation rentals we've ever stayed in, with so much to offer – it's incredibly clean, comfortable, and charming. Daura and Jamal are fantastic hosts and have thought of everything. From the thoughtful notes, to the multiple well-placed refrigerators, to the throw blankets near the many couches and chairs. Not to mention the sound machines in every bedroom. The house itself has a lot of character and we marveled at the architecture. As others have said, the kitchen is very well stocked, which we took full advantage of. We also really enjoyed the hot tub, which was very well maintained. The views are beautiful and despite being remote, there's a great pizza place only 10 minutes away (Covered Bridge Market & Pizzeria – highly recommended!) We really couldn't have asked for anything more – this place is one of a kind.

This property is amazing! It had everything we needed, plus more! Our group was three adults and our collective four kids...ages 25-29, coming in from Oregon, California, Pennsylvania, New York, and New Orleans! We all enjoyed everything it had to offer. We appreciated that we could be out all day and then come back and chill, cook dinner, and spend the evening together. It is a little remote... you have to plan for a little drive time, but it is beautiful and peaceful, and worth the drive. We loved waking up with the birds and the meadows. The setting is really stunning. We would definitely recommend it and hope to be back!

This property was everything we could have hoped for for a relaxing vacation week. The beautiful scenery along with the hot tub made for such a wonderful week and with the game room as well it had everything we could have wanted for my family of 4. A great week and we would love to revisit again sometime in the future!

We are in the area quite frequently, and will absolutely rent again and will not hesitate to recommend this place for family and friends. Great find!
