Tompkins County: hotéis boutique

My wife and I stayed at Jes' place for three nights. The house is is gorgeous, with the rooms impeccably decorated and furnished. All furnishings supported the heritage of this magnificent historical mansion. I had reserved the smaller room for our stay, but Jes was very kind to upgrade us to Room 2, a very large, well-decorated room with a beautiful and very comfortable king size bed. The bathroom is very large with two separate sinks and a large shower (and separate bath tub). We took advantage of the downstairs rooms, where there are comfortable chairs for reading or just relaxing. There are beverages available to have while relaxing. I highly recommend Jes' place if you're looking to stay in the Trumansburg/Ithaca/Cayuga Lake area. You will feel very at-home and not disappointed. Make your reservation early to try to get Room 2!

We loved our stay here. Conveniently located to different parks and hiking we wanted to do as well as to downtown Ithaca. The room was charming and had everything we needed.

I'm so impressed with everything with this place!! just stayed for one night but wished I stayed longer!! had ny doggie with me and this place was so dog friendly even had supplies and treats for him and for us!! snores and Firestarter!! I will be back for sure!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Grayhaven. Our room was clean and comfortable. Alexis is a wonderful host. She was thoughtful with providing everything necessary to ensure her guests have a pleasant experience. We will definitely return and will be recommending Grayhaven to friends and family.

Honestly one of the most beautiful and peaceful this far of places I have visited, the room was not big but it didn’t feel cramped and it was very neat. I loved that they had a record player, and even without thinking it I had bought some in Ithaca thinking where I was going to play them not knowing they had one in the room already, so that was a good addition to their room. I definitely recommend staying here if you have a city life, their back garden had a fire place with hammock to lay on, that’s the best bit if you go with more people because they give you logs and s’mores to make on them which I think is awesome. 10/10 do recommend

This place is adorable. I stayed in one of the cottages, and it was just right for what I needed. Super cute decor- beautiful grounds. The bed was very comfortable as well. Alexis was an absolute sweetheart. I feel like I have friends in Ithaca- and plan to visit again. Thank “y’all” for making this Texan feel so welcome. ❤️

Great little spot. Quick drive to Ithaca. Everything was as described plus a few extras. There were some friendly neighborly pups and we discovered a communal looking fridge down the hall which was nice for storing drinks and snacks while we stayed outside of town. Would recommend and visit again. Definitely would have loved to visit the restaurant if we had more time there

We stayed in a room at 16 Elm for our anniversary. The room and house were exactly as described - beautiful, clean, and quiet. The location was great, perfect for walking to get a cup of coffee in the morning. It was convenient to the wineries, Taughannock Falls, and Ithaca. We took advantage of many of Jes' suggestions for things to do and places to eat. We would definitely come back here and highly recommend 16 Elm to anyone looking for a romantic retreat in the beautiful Finger Lakes!

The Bespoke room at 16 Elm was a beautiful stop on our way from NYC to Niagara! The home was absolutely gorgeous, a convenient location to exploring the local Finger Lakes region, and it was a peaceful retreat after a few very busy days in the Big Apple. My husband and I both remarked that we’ll have to make another trip here just for this area alone! Also, Jes was so thoughtful in her local recommendations and room amenities…everything was perfect! (And as a side note, the lavender sage latte at Gimme Coffee just down the street is divine!) Thanks so much, Jes!!
