About this cottage rental
Relax and enjoy life in a beautifully simple tiny house! Clad in cedar and bathed in sunshine, this 8-sided artistic retreat invites travelers to re-connect to nature. The Octagon at Climbing Vine Cottages is only 12 minutes from downtown Ithaca but a world away on 16 acres of field, forest, orchards and gardens. The Octagon sleeps 2 on a full-size, decadently comfortable, memory foam bed. The kitchen is equipped with all of the basic essentials including a small fridge, induction cook top, and toaster oven plus cooking supplies and utensils. Dine in simplicity at the glowing walnut bar counter overlooking a wildflower field. Basic dining supplies are provided as are local, award-winning Gimme coffee, local honey, tea and olive oil. Melt away stress in the claw foot bathtub featuring a Victorian faucet and hand shower below the greenhouse window brimming with houseplants. The toilet and hand sink are tucked away providing privacy in this one-of-a-kind dwelling. Step through the sliding glass doors to a private grass lawn and perennial garden for picnics, sun bathing and star gazing. Internet is fast and reliable, capable of video conferencing, streaming, etc. The Octagon works well for travelers needing to work from home.
Our grounds are resplendent with flowers, herbs, fruit and vegetables at the 2 orchards and numerous gardens. Our property borders a nature preserve especially noted for its spring wildflowers and featuring many incredible waterfalls. We're also only 5 minutes drive from both Treman and Buttermilk Falls State Parks.
We have hosted travelers for 10 years at our nearby Yurt (also listed on VRBO) and we look forward to offering the Octagon to travelers seeking peaceful respite, great adventure and a wonderfully memorable vacation.

6 / 10Average·Jun 2022
I realized that this would be in the middle of a field, but did not realize that there is no closet, the bathroom is in the space without a door and there is no shower, just a tub with a hose shower head and no curtain to keep water in the tub... It was definitely more rustic than I realized, but there are beautiful flowers around the octagon and the property is well maintained. There is a grill & picnic table - very nice for a rustic experience.
