Staying at Frog's Way has been an economical and convenient bed and breakfast the two times I have visited Cornell University in the last 6 months. The proprietor Elan is a pleasant and straight forward gentleman, making the stay in his home comfortable and enjoyable. If you are sharing space with other guests expect that you must accommodate others for... More

Our time at Frogs way was very healing. Coming from NYC we are used to the hustle and bustle and Frogs way gave us the chance to clear our minds. The quiet and comfort of the B & B, plus the organic and eco friendly environment (and the ability to continue to compost while traveling), were other perks of Frogs... More

The bed and breakfast experience here at Frog's Way had pluses and minuses. The pluses are that the Lavender Room, which I stayed ,had a super comfortable bed and a stunning night-time view as well as day time view. The room was packed with wonderful books on sustainable living and poetry and crafts etc. The room however, had a musty... More

Thank you for making us feel so much at home during our stay at Frog's Way this past weekend. We both wish we could have freed up more time to explore EcoVillage's trails, gardens and fields, and perhaps spend a bit of contemplative time with the wonderful library you provided. We thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast selection and helped ourselves to... More

It is by all means worth coming here to have a unique experience of living like locals in an eco village. The breakfast in B&B Frog's Way consists of delicious home made local products and it is self served. My only concern was that the breakfast nook is very tiny, especially if there are strangers in the other room, and... More

I appreciate our guest taking the time to review Frog’s Way on 11/6/12 and would like to address her concerns about the “tiny ...breakfast nook… especially if there are strangers in the other room.” Starting this summer, in response to this concern, we have highlighted for guests the option of dining in the adjacent common room. It has a table... More

my entire extended family totaling 13 adults stayed comfortably at this home that included a magnificent view of the hills of Ithaca, large bedrooms, diverse reading materials everywhere, large dining room and awesome kitchen. We rented this home to attend a wedding nearby and hosted the pre-wedding dinner party for 19 people with ease. Great home, great location, great owners.... More

We loved staying at The Frog's Way. It would not be for everyone but for us, it was perfect. The hosts are gracious and welcoming, the community is inspiring, the view is spectacular and the food is delicious. We are a family of five and we rented the entire lower floor for a week. This meant we used the living... More

I came across Frog's Way when looking for places to stay in the Ithaca area. The EcoVillage is a unique, beautiful and peaceful place. The B&B is small--we shared the space with a family of four that was using the other room--but well organized and the kitchen is stocked with delicious organic and local goodies for breakfast. Visitors are invited... More

We stayed at Frog's Way during a college tour at Cornell. We loved the idea of staying in an Ecovillage and the B & B lived up to the concept! The room was comfortable and well cared for and the organic breakfast and homemade granola and yogurt was delicious. We woke up to a beautiful view of multiple Goldfinches outside... More

Frog's Way B & B, located inside EcoVillage Ithaca, is by far and away our favorite place to stay when we come to see our granddaughter in Ithaca. The price is right for rooms that are lovely and comfortable in all seasons. In winter the radiant heating under the floor works wonders against the outside cold. We loved coming in... More
