West Shore Apartments is a local, family-owned and operated apartment company serving Ithaca since 1967. We offer unique apartments and houses throughout the City of Ithaca and along the west shore of Cayuga Lake, with most properties within walking distance of Cornell and Collegetown or just a 5-8 minute drive to Cornell University or Ithaca College. From single-family houses for groups to apartment communities with up to six apartments, we offer flexible living options, smaller communities where you can know your neighbors, personalized attention, furnished apartments at no extra cost, free Wi-Fi, and amenities that make student life in Ithaca comfortable and enjoyable. Each home has its own character, not a cookie-cutter layout.
