Two
couples
staying more than four nights in Trumansburg may want to consider the
apartment as an alternative to the bed and breakfast. It is more
economical and, if you are "foodies," you can avail yourselves of the
local farmers markets (in Watkins Glen, Ithaca, and Trumansburg)
farms, wineries, roadside stands, and Amish stores to collect the
makings of many
fresh meals during your stay.
Quiet
historic village
neighborhood with three-minute walk to post office, bank/ATM,
restaurants, clubs, laundry mats, bookstore, Gimme!
coffee
shop, a short drive to the grocery store, and the TCAT bus 21 to Ithaca
Commons and Cornell campus is available at the bottom of the hill.
Desire:
quiet folks sensitive to B&B operation.

trips to Scandinavia Deirdre's father fished for salmon and her mother
painted. At right is a Van Atta oil painting of a train station in the

Antonio, Texas. Van Atta
painted in the 1940s while her first husband (Deirdre's father) was
stationed in Texas
during the Second World War. The mirror is by Mary Reynolds, an Ithaca
area artist. We have another of her mirrors in the Bradley Room in the
bed and breakfrast. At far right is the door out onto the upstairs
