About this property

Beautiful Fingerlakes Farm Home minutes to WGI, located on Vintage road course.

Beautiful Finger Lakes Farm Home minutes to WGI, located on the historic road course.

The Sycamore House is a year-round rental located at Watkins Hill Farm on the historic Watkins Glen Grand Prix Course. A serene setting just minutes from Watkins Glen International (WGI), downtown Watkins Glen, Ithaca, NY (34 min.) and adjacent to Watkins Glen State Park. We offer a full-service home equipped with a gourmet kitchen and plenty of indoor and outdoor entertaining spaces with spectacular views and ample parking. We are a small working farm meaning there might be a few cows in adjoining fields. You will feel right at home here while enjoying easy access to everything Watkins Glen and the surrounding area has to offer from this central location.

Beautiful house
Staying at the Sycamore was great. The online pictures don't make it justice. Not only did we find everything to be perfect but we alsa had the nice surprise to find snacks, condiments, oil, apple juice, a botle of wine etc...all courtesy of the owners. Liz was very nice to drop by in the morning to give us some tips on the area and answer the questions we had. The location is great, very close to the state park which is gorgeous. Thank you Liz for making our stay a great experience.

Another incredible stay
This is the second time we’ve stayed at this wonderful house. The host could not be nicer and more accommodating. The house is super clean and very charming. Will definitely stay again the next time we are in Watkins Glen.

Excellent property
Of all the VRBOs we have rented, this is one of the best. The house was all appointed. The porches and patio were charming. Even the cows next to the property wrte delightful. We had 7, and were very comfortable. Highly, highly revving.

What a gem!
Whether visiting Watkins Glen or attending an event at the race track, this is a perfect home in a perfect location. The owners are fabulous to work with, the house is beautiful, they went above and beyond to make us feel at home. It has a well stocked kitchen and bathrooms with mini toiletries in case you forgot something. They were so sweet they added some specials items for our welcome.

Fantastic house in the perfect location
We absolutely loved everything about the house. It’s super clean and extremely nicely decorated. All the furniture is in perfect shape. The kitchen is incredibly nice and well stocked. The host could not have been nicer and was very helpful throughout our stay. Definitely planning to stay again.
