ICE CREAM at "The Hop" near Binghamton University

Go back in time to this 1950s home with modern touches. Enjoy soda drinks and ice cream sundaes at the soda bar, or in the "outdoor café" on the heated front porch. Practice your Jitterbug to the music and lights of the juke box, which has bluetooth capability, or can accommodate your favorite CDs. Relax and stream a movie from your own favorite private movie account in the living room or any bedroom, all equipped with smart TVs. The kitchen and dining room are fully equipped to prepare a holiday dinner. Or have a picnic in the backyard or at the park up the street.
This home is a great place for a family vacation, with enough spaces to enjoy alone, or all together. Meet around the soda bar or in the comfortable seating in the living room, sit out on the enclosed heated porch, enjoy a meal in the roomy dining room, or make your meal outside on the patio on the BBQ and enjoy the spacious back yard and patio seating.
The driveway has two parking spots, one in front of the other.
This home is less than ten minutes from Binghamton University, and approximately 10 minutes from UHS/ Wilson Hospital or Lourdes. Shop at Wegmans or one of the two Walmarts in town for groceries, eat out at the authentic international restaurants or one of the many chain restaurants found within minutes on the Vestal Parkway, or relax and have food delivered from one of the close-by area restaurants.

UPSTAIRS: two bedrooms with comfortable queen beds, walk-in closets, and memorabilia that will take you back to the TV shows, music, and household items of the fifties. One queen room has an adjoining door to the third bedroom with bunk beds and throwbacks to being a kid with Howdy Doody, Roy Rogers, jacks and dominos. All bedrooms have their own TV where you can stream your favorite movies from your own private accounts. Upstairs there is also a spacious closet with plenty of towels, as well as bedding for the futon couch in the living room. The full bathroom has a tub with shower.
DOWNSTAIRS: There is plenty of seating on the two couches in the living room, as well as at the custom soda bar surrounded with black-and-white-checkered tile. The two café-style tables on the heated front porch are a great place to have your morning coffee. The dining room comfortably seats six and the china hutch holds serving dishes for your holiday meal.
The coat room has a place to remove your shoes, hang your coat, and grab a board game from inside the bench seat.
The kitchen has a full set of pots and pans, casserole dish, cookie sheet and rack, and plenty of dishes for eight people. You will also find a refrigerator with a freezer for your ice cream, an electric stove, a dishwasher, a microwave, a Kurig coffee maker, and a toaster. Off the kitchen is a half-bath with a stackable washer-dryer.
The covered patio is a wonderful place to spend an afternoon BBQ while playing in the back yard. (The garage is not for guest access.)
We hope that you feel refreshed and relaxed after your trip back, and that you will want to return again.
