Cozy comfortable apartment with a kitchen and deck located in a country setting. It was close to the Watkins glen waterfalls. Barb gave us a tour of the barn and the goats, and that was enjoyable.We also had fresh eggs!

Great location and place to stay

The hosts were very attentive and hospitable. The location was out in the county but close to favorite vacation sites. We will definitely return and recommend to others. Any needs we had were met. The kitchen was well stocked and easy to cook in.

We had a wonderful stay! Our hosts, Barb and BJ, couldn't have been kinder. Their farm was very peaceful. BJ gave us a tour of their barn where we met their goats and learned very interesting history of the property. Thank you!

We had such a nice birthday weekend staying at the property. The location was great; we went to the Corning Museum of Glass one day and to Watkins Glenn State Park another. We had everything we needed and when we were unsure about the pellet stove Barb we right up to check it out. On our last day we had a tour of the farm and got to visit the goats which was a highlight of the trip. Definitely would recommend this place.

The hosts were beyond amazing!!! My girls and I enjoyed the tour of the barn to meet the goats and learn about the property with the other guests. I purchased 2 doz fresh eggs to take home with me from the farm. The location to Watkins Glen park & town was great. We will be back again.

Quiet country setting

Wonderful farm setting provided us a chance to unplug and really relax. Centered between Corning and Watkins Glen, the location was a perfect hub for us to explore the area. It was so great to see spring in motion in the valley and hills.

Cozy Finger Lakes area retreat for 2

Charming residence, off the beaten path where farm life is a big part of the experience. The space where we stayed was well appointed and cozy. The big picture window allowed a view of the sunrise every morning. A perfect couple's getaway

⸻We had a wonderful stay at this charming country place. The owners were incredibly hospitable and welcoming, making us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. One of the highlights was the farm tour, which was both fun and informative—a really special experience that gave us a deeper appreciation of the surroundings. The accommodations were exactly as described, clean, comfortable, and full of country charm. Everything about our visit matched or exceeded our expectations, and we left feeling relaxed and refreshed. Highly recommend!

The perfect spot!

We had plans to explore most of Seneca Lake, Corning, and Ithaca. The location of the farm was PERFECT and Barb and Barb could not have been more accommodating. The rental was the best space for us to launch from and gave us room to spread out and enjoy the scenery. Such a perfect, beautiful spot to stay for our honeymoon!

Our room above the barn was perfect, clean, comfy, and included everything we needed for our four-night stay. It has a large window with a view East where I sat with my wife and a cup of coffee and watched the sun rise. Barb and Barb was always available if needed and very helpful in answering our tourist questions. Our stay included visiting Corning, Watkins Glenn, and the Cornell botanic gardens. All were in easy driving distance. My wife and I would not hesitate to stay here again, and most likely we will in that there is much more to see in this area.

We really enjoyed Barb & Barb’s place. Perfect for 2 & quite peaceful & relaxing. We got to enjoy a tour of the farm & hanging out with the goats. It was a perfect location for us to visit Corning & Watkins Glen. The Glen area has several wineries to visit or you could find fantastic hiking trails at the State Park. Barb recommended the Corning Museum of Glass & we thoroughly enjoyed seeing the exhibits & watching demos. Tx for the tip!
