We absolutely loved our stay! The hosts were wonderful, communication was perfectly balanced, responsive without being overwhelming. The property itself was spotless and surprisingly spacious. The hot tub was the cleanest we’ve ever seen at a rental, and the fire pit area was clearly well cared for, with plenty of properly cured firewood provided.The thoughtful touches really set this place apart, freshly baked bread, eggs, and veggies from their garden made us feel so welcomed. We’ve been hoping to find a “regular” spot we can return to again and again, and we’re happy to say we’ve found it. Truly top-notch in every way!

Myself and 4 of my closest mom friends wanted a place to stay near the wineries for a mom’s weekend away. This place was perfect. There was plenty of space, comfortable beds, and we enjoyed the hot tub for sure! It was a nice touch from the owners to share fresh sourdough bread, eggs, and veggies from their homestead. Definitely recommend this location!

Mother/Daughter Getaway

My 2 daughters and I have been under a lot of stress lately and I wanted to find a peaceful place for us to get away for a weekend. Just needed to rest, relax and reset. 'Thyme Away' gave us exactly what we needed. Our hosts Holly & David were wonderful. They left us homemade bread and farm fresh eggs and even went a step further by getting me gluten free muffins after I told them that I had celiac disease and unfortunately couldn't enjoy the homemade bread. Beyond kind. We loved our stay!

The most beautiful sunrises!

David and Holly's place was perfect for our weekend getaway to visit our son. They had thought of every convenience... a wonderful assortment of coffees, farm fresh eggs, and the most delicious homemade bread. They even had disposable slippers for going to and from the hot tub!! The house was centrally located for all our sightseeing and was very peaceful. My favorite part had to be the beautiful sunrises every morning. We will definitely book again.

Beautiful Retreat

We loved our weekend at Thyme Away. I was there with friends to celebrate a 40th birthday and the home was perfect for gathering together for good food and relaxation. We really enjoyed the backyard with the fire pit and hot tub. The kitchen was well supplied for making meals. The location was good for visiting wineries and breweries in the area.

A little disappointed.

The owners were very responsive and got back to us in a timely manner. We read all the reviews and were looking forward to our stay. The wineries were within a few miles which was nice. What was disappointing, is that there was a ton of vegetation that was overgrown around the home. Some of the vegetation was covering the entry path into the home. The inside of the home was nice, but due to the fact that the form of AC was window units, we were killing flies throughout our stay. Another concern was as we were relaxing in the early evening, a mouse ran across the living room area and climbed into one of the vents. The area in the back was also overgrown. Much of the paint on the stairwells was chipping off. In our personal opinion, we just felt very "dirty" dealing with all the flies and a mouse and felt it could be cleaner.

Hospitable Hosts & Hot Sauce

From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed into our home away from home. David & Holly had a happy birthday banner hanging in the main room and left a heart shape of rose petals on the master bed as an anniversary surprise! There was a loaf of fresh baked bread in the kitchen and farm fresh eggs in the fridge. Both were so delicious and we enjoyed them each morning for breakfast. There was a little hiccup with the hot tub being at temp upon arrival, and our hosts were gracious to provide us with extra goodies of homemade hot sauce and an additional nights stay. That meant a lot to us! They get EXTRA STARS in our book for going above and beyond. The property was nice with a fire pit and wood on the back patio. The hot tub was clean and provided necessary relaxation. We enjoyed having Alexa to play music for us throughout our stay. The kitchen was fully stocked so we could prepare meals at the house. There are many wineries, breweries, eateries and other places to visit within a short distance of this VRBO. Highly recommend Bully Hill winery, B6D Distillery and The Switz restaurant. We will likely be back again in the future and want to THANK our hosts for being super awesome!

Perfect Romantic Getaway! ❤️

This was the perfect place for a Romantic Getaway! A beautiful home, with a beautiful view - topped off with fireplaces, a fire pit and a hot tub! The quiet, private locale allowed the best opportunity to step away from a hectic life to focus on each other. There is an adorable Alpaca farm around the corner for animal lovers and a short ride to the finger lakes to explore. The gorgeous Watkins Glen is also nearby! The home baked bread and fresh eggs waiting for us made us feel more than welcome. I can't recommend this home enough. With its lovely decor, amenities and luxuries provided - it truly is the ideal getaway!

The property was clean, the landscape of the property and surrounding area was beautiful. We loved to watch the sunrise in the mornings from the back door.
