My wife and I had an absolutely wonderful time here. The view overlooking Watkins Glen and the southern tip of Seneca is just marvelous, and the large, well-maintained back yard was just perfect for our dog. Our hosts were friendly and communicative. We have our fingers crossed that this place will still be available next summer!

My husband and I spent a peaceful, relaxing weekend here. The cottage was comfortable and had everything we needed. It was very close to downtown Watkins Glen and the scenery was absolutely incredible. Our only regret was that we couldn’t stay longer! We enjoyed ourselves very much and will definitely book again!

Would 100% stay again. Great views, quiet location and possibly the most comfortable mattresses we've ever slept on in a rental property. You can't tell that from a picture but they were the best.Thanks for a great getaway!
