The house was perfect for our family. The front porch view of the lake was great. We could walk to all the stores and restaurants and of course the harbor. And only a short drive to the wineries. Our second time in Watkins Glen for the Grand Prix festival and it was so fun! We would definitely stay at this house again!!

Excellent location so close to all that Watkins Glen has to offer. Sitting on the porch was a highlight- but it can be noisy with the busy road in front. The home had everything we needed. It is like going to your grandma’s house- comfortable but a bit old fashioned.

Great location! Comfy, charming house.

Nice place, lots of original charm. Beds were comfortable, it had everything we needed. Upstairs was very dark and isolated from the rest of the house. Parking was tricky, had to make an awkward u-turn to park out front, but we got the hang of it. Location was great! Could walk to town and wineries close by. We enjoyed it!

We had a great time and my kids are already asking to go back. We loved walking down to the harbor and seeing boats from the front porch. A big memory was watching the 4th of July Fireworks from the backyard! Very cool!

Lovely views and convient location

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Watkins Glenn. A lovely home with all the amenities. An easy walk to downtown with shops and restraunts. Views of the lake. My favorite was sitting on the porch watching the water. If you like wine, there are many wineries located around the lake. I highly recommend visiting Watkins Glenn and staying at this property.

About the host

Hosted by Dawn Sevilla

Host profile image
When I was growing up my parents took us to Watkins Glen and we hiked through the gorge. I really enjoyed the waterfalls. Many years later my husband and I came back to celebrate a wedding anniversary. We walked through the gorge and it was as beautiful as I remembered it. After the gorge we stopped at Lakewood Vineyards and had our first ever wine tasting. That was about 15 years ago and we have been coming back ever since. We are always finding something new to do in the area. There are so many festivals and events that there are some we are still trying to find the time to attend.

Why they chose this property

What we enjoy about the property we have is the location. We are not in the center of town but rather just on the edge of town. We have a lake and harbor view, and are close enough to town to walk to restaurants and town events.
