I believe this is the 5th time we've stayed at Bee Cottage. We are so happy to be able to visit and stay in such a lovely well cared for property. We come up every year to spend 2 weeks visiting with family, and we look forward to this trip every year. Shirley and Rich have made a cottage that feels like home and we hope to return for many more years. They are the best hosts ever

We enjoyed our stay at the Bee House. Comfortable bed, beautiful views and fast internet! Would recommend a bigger TV and better couch setup so more than one person can enjoy. Otherwise, it exceeded our expectations.

A lovely light-filled space. Very comfortable & private. We loved our week here in this special & well designed cabin with a deeply personal touch in Shirleys pottery, musical instruments, & art work. Lots of wild life around & books to identify. Several outdoor spaces to sit & read or watch the birds. Yoga mat provided for early morning session on the balcony. We enjoyed evenings around the fire pit or by the creek & just a few minutes drive to the charming little town of Trumansburg.

We had a lovely stay at the Bee House. The house was very clean and spacious. We loved the large picture windows and enjoyed the view of the grounds. Shirley is a great host and was incredibly easy to communicate with. I would definitely stay at the Bee House again next time I am in the Ithaca area.

The Bee House was a peaceful, pristine little house, perfect for our short visit to see our son at Cornell. A 15 min drive to Cornell and right near the quaint town of Trumansburg with so many great dining options, the house was in a perfect location. Shirley keeps an impeccably clean house- no shoes allowed which is how we live at our own home. Beautiful wood flooring, cozy bedrooms, and nice layout. tons of light and views from the walls of windows overlooking the running creek behind the property. Shirley makes gorgeous pottery and leaves a little gift for guests. It was just such a nice little place -we will return!
