1 Bedroom Apartment in Trumansburg
EXTRA CLEANING PROTOCOLS
Since the COVID 19 outbreak, we are taking extra precautions to keep our guests safe and making every effort to ensure a worry-free stay. We offer self check in, and have instituted extra cleaning protocols with extra cleaning and disinfecting on high-touch surfaces.
This cozy second floor apartment is next to Taughannock Falls State Park, which is home to one of the outstanding attractions of the northeast - 215' Taughannock Falls, which plunges past rocky cliffs that tower nearly 400' above the gorge. This is the tallest free-falling waterfall east of the Mississippi (33 feet higher than Niagara Falls). The location is perfect for outdoor activities and adventures including hiking the gorge trails and the Black Diamond Trail (which runs from Trumansburg to Ithaca along a former train route), biking, birding (we are located in the Cayuga Lake Basin), wine tasting, swimming, kayaking, stand-up paddle boarding, boating, and fishing. Hiking the park's rim trails provides dramatic views of the gorges formed by the ice age. Minutes from the Cayuga Wine Trail and the Seneca Lake Wine Trail, which includes scenic wineries, distilleries, cideries and breweries. There are great restaurants nearby, many featuring free live music. Only ten miles to Ithaca and to Watkins Glen, and directly across the road from beautiful Taughannock Stream that flows into the waterfall. Wake up to the cheerful sound of songbirds and fall asleep to the soothing sounds of the stream across the road. Peaceful surroundings and beautiful gardens. And the night sky is perfect for stargazing!
Newly renovated smaller second floor apartment in owner's country home. Clean, cozy and comfortable, perfect for 1-2 people. The bedroom has a new queen size mattress, solid Amish-made oak dresser plus air conditioner. The cheerful sunroom/dining room has a cypress wood table and chairs (handmade by local Amish craftsmen) and looks out over the trees and expansive grounds and gardens. We call the apartment the Eagles Nest, since it sits above the magnolia trees and overlooks large silver maple and black walnut trees and several flower gardens. Our yard is 100% organic- no pesticides or herbicides. We have native plantings to attract the birds and the bees and butterflies. Several songbird and hummingbird feeders are always in use.
Inside there's a fully equipped kitchen with refrigerator, oven and range, coffee maker, toaster and microwave. In addition there's a newly tiled bathroom, a den with a loveseat and chair and 36" flat screen DirecTV with 150+ channels and second air conditioner, a walk-in closet, and high speed wireless internet connection. Linens, towels and soft cotton bedding and blankets are supplied, and several Metropolitan Museum of Art reproductions hang on the walls. Close to the quaint village of Trumansburg which offers boutique and art gallery shops, excellent restaurants, a large grocery store and liquor store, pharmacy, natural foods store and deli, pizzeria, bank, beautiful public library, used book store, vintage bowling alley/restaurant and laundromat.
There is also a new outdoor seating area with two chairs for our guests to enjoy a morning cup of coffee or an afternoon aperitif.
We provide a Welcome Book for guests which highlights recommendations for locally owned businesses and restaurants. Sustainability related amenities include solar panel energy, recycling, and eco-friendly LED lighting. The historic house was built in 1850 and formerly owned by Robert Moog, who invented the synthesizer, and who invited many famous musicians to the home, i.e. the Beatles and Emerson, Lake and Palmer. The house is included in a documentary about the life of Bob Moog, called "Electronic Voyager".
Regretfully, we are not handicapped accessible. Please note that for those with physical limitations, there are stairs leading up to this second floor apartment as shown in the photos. They are lit up with multiple solar lights to increase safety at night.
