Great Little Fall Getaway

The Carriage House was very nice, clean and well appointed. It served as a perfect home base for us as we explored the area. The owner provided a lot of little extra touches that made our stay that much more enjoyable! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience for our first visit to the Finger Lakes!

Absolute gem!

We had the perfect stay! First visit to WG to celebrate our anniversary over a long weekend. The carriage house and property was simply idyllic. We were so happy to have been able to find this home that also permitted our dog. All of the furniture, including the bed, are super comfortable. The hosts provided cheese and crackers, wine, beer, OJ, muffins, coffee and creamers upon arrival. They really have gone above and beyond with all the touches to make guests feel comfortable. If this is available, don’t hesitate another minute to book! It has everything you could want.

Theresa sets a new standard for “clean.”

This may have been the nicest VRBO stay we have ever had. Theresa’s Carriage House was just lovely all around. It was in very nice, quiet setting with sightings of the local animal neighbors, a beautiful view of the lake, yet only three blocks away from the charming downtown/village area. Theresa was a fabulous host who communicated clearly prior to our arrival and quickly answered the few questions we had while staying there. We very much appreciated the welcome gift she left for us. We had everything we needed for a continental breakfast the next morning and wine and cheese and crackers for an evening in. The rental unit has been thoughtfully and beautifully done. Every time we used something I thought we must have been the first guests—everything was so clean. Convenient to the town, the State Park, Corning Museum, and Geneva where we attended a family event. If we visit this area again, I would love to stay at the Carriage House again. Thank you!

Carriage House

Exactly as described. Location was perfect for daily outings to explore downtown, wineries, Itchaca, Geneva, and state parks. Hosts were quick to respond to any questions. The goodies in the fridge were a pleasant surprise! Everything you need is at this cottage. We saw a family of deer each morning walking through the park-like yard. The view was nice and we even saw a rainbow over the lake after a rainy morning. Definitely would stay here again.

Summer road trip getaway

Lovely, quiet cottage in a serene setting, close to everything. This cottage was perfect for the two of us for a few nights stay. It has everything you could need. Very comfortable bed and awesome shower. The snacks and bottle of wine upon arrival was so welcoming. Host is great and even checked on us to make sure we were alright and had what we needed during a crazy storm. Would definitely stay again and would 100% recommend.

Sweet Spot in Watkins Glen

We had a lovely stay! The carriage house is fresh and clean and has beautiful, rustic accents where the original wood beams peek out along the ceiling and walls. This location was quiet and has a pretty view of the lake. We enjoyed having a place to stay close to so many local attractions. We were comfortable and pleased with its cleanliness. We would absolutely book again!

Cozy Home

This cozy cottage is nestled away on a dead end street away from busy main street. However, you can walk into town. I will say it is a very steep hill so we decided to drive. The cottage quaint and Theresa has stocked the kitchen with local wine, cheese and crackers, muffins, water bottles, coffee and creamer etc. She thought of everything! After a long drive it was a welcome surprise. We loved our stay and would return again

Cute carriage house

Very charming and cozy. The carriage house is at the end of a dead end street so although it is on the owner’s property, it still feels very private. Lots of deer in and around the yard. The walk to town is only about a half mile, but it’s a bit steep on the walk back up. The house itself was exceptionally clean. Decent size bedroom, bathroom and living area. The vaulted ceilings throughout make it seem much larger. The kitchen was set up for basic cooking. The house has a counter top oven and hot plate rather than a range. Not a problem if you plan to eat bigger meals in town. The only suggestion we would have is to have a smaller frying pan. The hot plate is perfectly fine for making breakfast but with a large frying pan, it was difficult to use both burners at the same time. Would definitely recommend and we would love to stay here again if we are in the area.

Stunning

You couldn’t ask for a more beautiful place to stay, the view of the lake is just as stunning as sitting atop of the hill at any winery. The amazing thing is you are only a minute from town! The guest house is charming, clean and is designed and decorated with a creative eye. We can’t wait to go back!

A great get-away

This was an awesome place to stay up the hill from Watkins Glen. Cozy, cute and quiet. The view of Seneca Lake from the fire pit area was beautiful. Very relaxing location. Snacks and wine found on our arrival were so appreciated. The walk up and down the hill was a little challenging but helped us wear off the calories gained down in the village. Would highly recommend this property!!

Annual Grapehounds Weekend!

We have been visiting Seneca Lake for a few years every July for the annual Grapehounds event. I found this lovely gem of a place right outside of Watkins Glen. The Carriage House was adorable. Clean, well decorated and Theresa the host even stocked the refrigerator with some essentials! Linens were provided as well as soaps, shampoos.etc.., in case you needed them. We had a wonderful stay! I’d highly recommend for a couple to get away, relax, visit wineries, go hiking or whatever else tickles your fancy!
