We enjoyed ourselves very very much, especially in the mornings on the front porch with coffee graciously provided by the owners. Beautiful views. An additional full size bathroom would make this property a truly ideal location.

Beautiful view of Lake Seneca
We enjoyed our stay at this property! Very clean accomodations as well as added touches in the bathroom in terms of toiletries. Things you might sometimes forget like; hair ties, makeup remover, q-tips, cotton balls, etc!. Nice to also have a coffee maker in the main bedroom !

We had a wonderful stay in Watkins Glen and Jill was a pleasure to work with. The house was a perfect set up for our two families (4 adults and 5 kids). We really enjoyed the fire pit and appreciated the extra things (nice cookware and the "forgot something" stash in the bathroom with toothpaste, mouthwash, etc.). House was conveniently located next to Watkins Glen State Park all of the other attractions. We loved it and hope to visit again!

Long weekend get away
We had a wonderful time in Watkins Glen. The location of the house was very convenient to everything. We were very happy to have been in WG before the rush of the season. The house was perfect for our needs. Jill made herself available and was a great communicator. My husband left his wedding band at the house and Jill responded promptly and helped to get it shipped back to us.

Fabulous family retreat!
Very cozy, county chic, well stocked (kitchen utensils, bathroom amenities, linens/towels, Very clean. Super kid-friendly: games, puzzles, books, play nook. Great view. Outdoor firepit and eating area looked great although weather was not warm enough for us to use it. Host was extremely communicative: friendly and responsive. Close to so many activities (we loved Corning Glass with the kids, Watkins Glen hiking).Overall a great spot we would highly recommend!

Beautiful sunsets
We had an excellent stay at the farmhouse. The view of the lake and the sunsets were incredible. It was a great setting for both kids and adults. We had fun exploring all of the waterfalls and the wineries in the area. Jill was a responsive host and made sure our stay was as comfortable as possible.
