Inn on Columbia

We recently went for an extended weekend trip and were very happy with our stay. The location is quiet and peaceful, yet just a short walk from the downtown area and its conveniences. The owners were personable and provided quality feedback and recommendations on locations to visit based on our questions and tastes. The morning breakfasts were absolutely delicious and homey. We were so thrilled with the quality of the food every morning. Everything was clean, uniquely decorated, and you could feel the owners' touch in the construction and layout. If you're looking to do a couple's vacation in the area, then this is a fantastic and unique destination.

The breakfast alone is worth a visit! Perfect location to access downtown commons and quick drives to the top nature areas and Cornell campus. This was our first visit to Ithaca and we will definitely return!

It would be hard to top the breakfast or owners conversation. Great for a weekend get away.

We had a great stay at the Inn on Columbia. The breakfast was wonderful, including fresh fruits and scones, and our host had an excellent selection of books to browse through. She was also very helpful with recommendations for restaurants and activities. The room was quiet and comfortable and the bathroom was clean and spacious. Thank you!

Did not really intend to reserve at B&B but glad I did. The Inn is very clean and tastefully decorated with countless thoughtful touches. I had complete privacy. Easy check in and in/out. Breakfast a sumptuous feast with all the variety one could desire. Madeline is a gracious host, warm and friendly in perfect balance.

Very personal style of hospitality by the owners Madeline and Kenn

Great hosts, nice place, quiet and close to downtown! We had a very nice stay.

Stayed in the Carriage House for four days and it was wonderful! The breakfast was superb (thanks Madeline!), the mix of architectural elements was incredible (thanks Kenn!), and the hosts and their pets were lovely. It really and truly felt like being in someone's home. The staff was so nice, and if we lived on the east coast, this would definitely be our regular getaway pad! Everyone was warm and inviting, and very welcoming, but not intrusive. The Carriage House was so comfortable and was like having your own little modern cabin with all the trimmings in and around it. I'm just sorry we were so busy with wedding guest obligations that we didn't have a lot of time to just relax on the property. I can understand how Madeline and Kenn have so many repeat guests for they are excellent hosts and good, caring people! If we are back in the area again, this would - without any doubt - be our Number One choice for accommodations. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Everything was perfect at the Inn on Columbia. We stayed in the gazebo and loved it. With a fireplace, spa tub and comfy bed, the gazebo is a must stay. We were met by the lovely Madeline who introduced us to the Inn. The Inn is in walking distance to a great restaurant and the commons. The architecture is amazing thanks to Kenn. Breakfast was superb, a fluffy egg soufflé, fruit and nice company with another guest. Highly recommended.
