The house was very welcoming and clean. The host was excellent with all the instructions and recommendations she left. This location is perfect if you're looking to be able to walk to the state park or into town to explore. The morning view from the living room is absolutely amazing. I highly recommended this place, and hope to stay there again in the spring.

The home is perfect! Lovely view from the den window. Kitchen was fully stocked; I especially appreciated the coffee/tea bar and the popcorn and spices. Very clean and comfortable. Walking distance to Watkins Glen gorge trail, Seneca Lake marina and the main street with restaurants and bar; short drive to the racetrack. We would definitely stay here again!

This place was perfect for us. We had planned to spend a lot of time outdoors, but the weather was extremely warm, so it was nice to have a comfortable space to relax in. There were lots of nice little touches around the house. The owner really thought about everything we might need. The queen size bed was very soft and comfortable. I appreciated the "mood" lighting around the place, as I am adverse to overhead lights and bright lighting. The overhead lighting was there if we needed it, but it was nice to be able to use the under-the-counter lighting at a dim setting when making my morning coffee. The living room also got a great amount of natural light from the large window that looks out over the town and hills. It was just a few minutes walk to get to any of the stores or restaurants we wanted to in town, and it was just as close to the entrance to the gorge at Watkins Glen State Park.
There's a nice workstation available in the corner of the living room.
I thought this shelf in the bathroom was such a great idea. It pops up if you need it, and you can put it flat again when you don't.
