Clean & Convenient location

This was a very cozy and clean guest house. The owners were very attentive and prompt in communicating with us when we couldn't access Vrbo's online messages (error - try again - for 2 days). The house is very conveniently located in the town - close to coffee, food and shops.

Excellent experience!

The Guest House was very clean and exactly as pictured. It was a comfortable stay indeed! We loved being within walking distance to the park and downtown. We also enjoyed spending some time by the fire pit in the courtyard in the evenings. The hosts made "checking in" a breeze - there really wasn't anything to do but follow the instructions and enjoy!

Location!

The apartment was a short walk to the Watkins Glen gorge. In fact everything we needed was walkable or a very short drive. The unit was comfy and well appointed. One of our favorite stays ( and we travel a lot). Our host was very helpful and responsive.

Passing Through

We chose the property as an option for a place to sleep for a few nights while we passed through NY to MA. The place was perfect for a few good nights of sleep, and was great for a wind down in the evening after being out in the heat and humidity all day. We loved that there was so much within walking distance (shops, places to eat, parks, hikes, etc.). We strongly recommend to any visitors taking the Lake Trolley along the Seneca Lake Wine Trail. That was our favorite day spent!

Perfect Location

We stayed in this delightful cottage July 3-5. It was the perfect location for walking to Watkins Glen waterfall hike and any stores or restaurants downtown. It was a central base for my husband and I to drive and visit wineries on both sides of the lake. The air conditioner worked well, the room was clean, and room was well-represented in pictures. There was a TV, gas fireplace, and bicycles to use; however, we never had time to use them. We enjoyed our time there.
