Stay a night at our tiny Hobbit House

We are close to Syracuse NY, Jamesville Beach,and Tully. You’ll love our place because - Well, its a Hobbit House :). Very cozy 12 by 12 cabin set in the back of my land right where the woods start. Small cabin good for a couple and maybe a child or two but no more than that. It has an outhouse. If this is sounding too basic or off the grid then please don't book! :) because that's exactly what is. But you also get to say you stayed in a cozy little hobbit house.

Studio for two only.

An open-concept studio apartment, which means that it has no interior partitions or doors separating the different areas. The space is continuous, integrating the bedroom, living room and kitchen in the same spacious and functional environment. The bathroom maintains a certain privacy in the shower and toilet areas, thanks to its design and layout, but it does not have an access door, maintaining the open and modern aesthetic of the complex. spacious for two guests.
