Host Travis was very responsive and helpful when asked. Great location walkable to amazing state park and the many downtown restaurants and shops yet quiet. House was clean and perfect size for the four of us. Loved the little food extras and the little front and side porches! The steps were manageable even with mobility/knee issues for one of us and my older dog.

Me and a group of 12 friends stayed here and it was perfect! You truly couldn't beat the location! It's worth every penny to be in walking distance to so many activities and food options! We each had space and felt comfortable. Host was very responding when we messaged.

Very conveniently located apartment on the edge of downtown Watkins Glen. Walked to Tobey's Donuts (great way to start the day!), Kookalaroc's Bar & Grill, Maria's Tavern, Nickel's BBQ and Jerlando's. The State Park is a couple of blocks away and a wonderful hike! Nice and quiet location, nicely stocked kitchen with the bonus of having some pre-stocked snacks when you get there! Very nice washer & dryer if you need to do laundry, comfy living room, nice size dining room for the four of us to spread out in, bedrooms upstairs were good sized, would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting to come hang out up here and relax! Travis was great with communication, responded quickly, and was very helpful. WiFi was good with plenty of speed for all of us to be online doing things without lag.

Location was ideal for spending time downtime or near the park. The unit we stayed in was the not the original unit that we booked due to a booking error on the host’s end—which the host addressed as well as they could through communication on the matter. The unit was clean and well-stocked and we were grateful for the breakfast items they provided, even though our travel group preferred to partake in some of the downtown eateries. We would definitely book here again!

Fabulous location and comfortable home away from home.

Very nice unit in a fabulous location. Less than 3 blocks to the entry of the Glen/Gorge in one direction, and about 7 blocks to the harbor and the iconic pier house. Travis is great to work with, and provided all amenities for a very comfortable stay.

Great place!

We had a great time on our stay. The house perfectly accommodated 2 families with kids and small dogs. The house was clean, the breakfast foods were much appreciated, and the separate laundry facilities for each apartment were awesome! The house is perfectly located in town and within walking distance to restaurants, shops, and even the Watkins Glen State Park! Highly recommend!

Great Finger Lakes Vacation

We enjoyed our stay at this guest house, plenty of space, and nice food for breakfast. Accommodations met or exceeded all our expectations. The house is walking distance to the state park waterfalls, and perfect for walking the town or Watgins Glen, down to the lake Seneca. The beds were comfortable, and the AC was good. We look forward to another visit to the region.
