A Real Gem

This beautiful accommodation was exactly what we were looking for. We walked less than a mile to the Homer Center for the Arts for a wonderful concert. The personal touches, including snacks and water waiting for us upon arrival, were very much appreciated. Enjoyed our coffee on the outdoor deck in the morning as well. We will definitely be back.

Great Stay in Homer!

Check in was super easy. There was a lot of space for my wife and I to space out from our two boys. We were up there for a baseball tournament at the Lumberyard. Lumberyard was a quick 10 minutes away.

Great place for a small family

The location was in a quiet spot and within walking distance to several restaurants (Dunkin Donuts, Hobo’s 281 Bar & Grill, a pizza place, and two ice cream shops. The Gutchess Lumber Sports Complex is only a short distance away for those who have baseball players and for those looking for some fun, try Shipwreck Golf (has both indoor and outdoor mini golf) which was fun for all ages. The VRBO was located in a very safe neighborhood which allowed me to go for my morning runs without any concerns. This place was the perfect size for our needs. We had a great stay and slept very well. Both my husband and son appreciated the bottles of water and snacks that were left for us. Bob and Mary made it feel like a home away from home. We definitely will request this place again in the future if we are ever in the Cortland area again.

Spacious property

Clean, very spacious, and mostly quiet. Communication with the owner was easy. There's a nice deck off the second floor kitchen that's a pleasant place to enjoy the view of the fields and hillside behind the property. The location next to a sizeable, 24-hour gas station may create issues for light sleepers.
