Excellent location, everything in Watkins Glen is walkable. Also close to many wineries. The property had a great view of Lake Seneca and was very well kept. It was perfect for what we needed.

This is a well kept, older home in a nice location. The host was very attentive and helpful. The bunkbeds upstairs are sleepable, but definitely at the end of their life. Pull out couch is damaged and not good for sleeping. Otherwise, the beds are very nice and the accommodation is quite satisfactory. We would recommend for families looking for lodging close to town.
