Log Country Inn Bed and Breakfast of Ithaca0

Firstly, the hosts make you feel as though you're visiting your family, rather than merely performing a business service. The vibe could not have been any cosier. My room (The Polish Room) was perfectly appointed, lovingly decorated, and felt like a modernised take on Old World charm. It felt more like a château and spa at a ski chalet in the Tatras than a B&B near Ithaca. In addition, the food was beyond superb! Just smelling the food would have been worth the price of admission, but of course you do get to eat plenty as well. It was as though my grandmother had cooked for me (though the presentation was admittedly far better than that of my grandmother). Also, there is plenty of room in the public part of the house to stretch out, read a book, chat with loved ones by the fire, and so on. And the property itself is very charming. Finally, I will definitely return. Honestly, I couldn't imagine having to stay anywhere else around Ithaca. Even if everything I had to do during my stay was in the city of Ithaca, I would still stay here; the drive is lovely. Don't even hesitate; book it now. Cheers!

There's nothing I didn't like. Perhaps just the fact that I wished I could've booked a longer stay!

This property is in a beautiful country setting, taking winding backroads to arrive. It is 20 minutes from the city/town so you are still somewhat close to activities but far enough away for it to be quiet, serene and peaceful. It is clean, newer, and the breakfast cooked for you by the owners is extremely divine tasting and a wonderful experience. We were completely comfortable and relaxed in our room for our weekend getaway. We love it here and will for sure be back again.

To be fair, on the website it does tell you in one of the rooms with the jacuzzi that it is sulfur water and is said to have healing properties which is why it is used; respectable. However…the sulfur smell is/can be a tad overwhelming in the room and I don’t think either of us were expecting it to be that harsh. We still had a completely relaxing time, however if you have a hard time with the smell of sulfur water, that specific room might not be for you. But the other rooms do however have filtered water.

Breakfast was incredibly filling! One day we had quiche and another day we had blintzes along with fresh vegetables, jams, pastries, and fruit. Coffee is brewed nice and strong. Wanda personally attends to you and even chimes with a little fun conversation. Location is completely rustic. It is so dark and quiet at night that if you happen to wake up in the middle of the night you might forget where you are. We did not stay in the main house but rather in the secondary residence just perpendicular to the main house. We were able to bring our 65 lb. dog with us at no extra charge (dogs are only allowed in the secondary home but allowed in the main home at breakfast time). Wanda loves dogs!

This is not so much a negative but more of a candid mention: the secondary home is a very old school/original cabin and does not have modern fixtures. Think of you grandmother’s home from the 1960’s with original bathroom, kitchen, towels and bedding. Since it’s not updated, it might not be for everyone but it IS retro-charming and very original. Everything is in working order, shower has good pressure and is hot, and the mattress is firm. Water has the sulfur smell but that’s the spring water for you that reminds you that you’re in the country.

A lovely property run by lovely people in a lovely location. We spent one night here on our way to the East coast and it did not disappoint. Our room was comfortable and relaxing. One note, this room had water from the sulphur springs which might not appeal to some-but it is very good for one's skin! The spa tub was so nice. The room/property was very quiet. Breakfast was included and prepared by Wanda, the owner It (the blintzes) was/were delicious!!! We highly recommend this property!

The building is new construction, of an old design with modern conveniences. The artistic style and furniture made everything remarkable. We enjoyed the waterfall, right in our bathtub. Amazing place, but even better were our hosts. We loved Ella's potato pancakes and great coffee, interesting conversations with Thomas , and Wanda's library and colorful gardens.

Everything. It was perfect. I enjoyed hearing the owners tell about the history of the cabin. The attention to detail was over the top.

My only recommendation would be to place 2 bottles of water in the fridge in each suite. I needed to take meds and had to find it.

Our stay at Log Country Inn was fantastic and exceeded all expectations we had. The stay was financially reasonable, the grounds were beautiful, the hosts were wildly kind and breakfast was delicious! Meeting the cats and dog were a big highlight for us, not to mention a jacuzzi tub right in our room!

Lack of blinds on the windows in the Polish Room.

Breakfast was amazing and cooked fresh! The land and location soo gorgeous! The room was very clean and had a nice boutique feel. The owners are extremely nice!

Call to confirm your stay - the owner prefers pen and paper reservations. Ask for anything you need (better pillow, gluten or dairy free options) they’re very accommodating!

The property was beautiful. There were beautiful gardens everywhere you looked. The cabin was recently done and looked stunning. The inside was just as beautiful as the outside with hard wood floors, air conditioners in every room, and beautiful wooden ceilings and walls.

Nothing.

Peaceful and serene atmosphere; super friendly hostess; lovely guests; thoroughly enjoyed the family member who arrived from Poland! He was delightfully funny and social!

The well water smell coming from the shower and sink in our room was overpowering.
