Perfect location
We initially stayed for hiking Watkins Glen state park, but a short walk brings you to all the shops and restaurants. The location was just far enough out of the main st that it was peaceful and quiet. I'd definitely recommend

Bedrooms were small, air conditioning was sub optimal, one bedroom was split into 2 and had little air conditioning, power was lost but that was due to a thunderstorm. Beds and pillows were a little uncomfortable and the beds can’t comfortably fit 2 adults

Perfect weekend stay
We loved our stay at this property in Watkins Glen. It was very well located for us to be able to walk downtown with our dog and get a good feeling for the area. We walked through the gorge, had a boat ride on the lake, went apple picking and saw the glass museum in Corning. The house is well equipped and very comfortable. We especially enjoyed sitting out on the back patio with the fire to keep us toasty. The hose is spacious and we are already considering coming back soon with our son and his girlfriend.

Getaway with spouse
Lovely casual weekend away with my husband. Nice quiet neighborhood and close proximity to activities in Watkins Glenn. A spotless, cozy cottage with lots of artsy, holistic touches and everything we needed. Very old and quaint but with very new appliances . Lovely patio…. quiet and private. If I visit Watkins Glenn again, I will definitely stay here!

A perfect house for a perfect week!
Such a nice, welcoming house! Everything was clean and well organized. The kitchen was exceptionally well stocked and the linens were plush and plentiful. We especially enjoyed the covered patio area out back with the propane fire pit—it was the perfect way to end the day, sitting outside on the cool evenings, sipping wine from the many nearby wineries . The location was ideal—within walking distance to town and even to Watkins Glen State Park. This was our first trip to the area—we plan to return and hope to be able to stay in this home again!

Wonderful Weekend
We had a wonderful weekend stay at this house. It was perfect for the four of us. The connected bedrooms helped my girls be close to us at night. The house was in the perfect location. It was close to the town and lake for visiting there. We loved how close it was to the national park and it was a short and easy trip to the raceway. Great house to rent!

Shawna does a fantastic job of making this home warm inviting and very clean. The location is walking distance to town and watkins state park! We loved being able to walk out and about. We were also able to bring our dog and that made the vacation even more enjoyable as he loved being outdoors and walking everywhere with us! THANK YOU Shawna!

Very nice, well appointed house with everything we could ask for! Quiet neighborhood with lots of nice, quiet streets to walk our dog and chat with neighbors. Conveniently located close to downtown, and central to many things to do. We would definitely stay here on future visits to the Finger Lakes!

Very convenient to many Finger Lake Wineries
Great outdoor space. The Kitchen is very spacious, and the host was kind to leave some coffee and tea selections. This was just the first part of our vacation, so the three nights was great for relaxation. The washer and Dryer were really convenient too. It's close to Watkins. Super great access to all the wineries we wanted to go to, from Watkins to many wineries around Keuka, even to Montezuma at the top Cayuga. If you are there on a Saturday, check out the Wind Mill, a great market that is only open on Saturdays. A great new place for us this trip was Tabora Farm & Winery, in Dundee.
