We stayed in the off season, and were pleasantly surprised at how great this property was. Perfectly situated between wineries and breweries. The room was clean and updated. Also- the bed was very comfortable. We will be staying here again!

This was our second time at the Diamond and we will be back! The room was spotless, the bed very comfortable and the room had everything we needed. As an added "bonus" there was live music and the bar upstairs was open. All of the staff we interacted with was great, including Sara the owner. We would recommend the Diamond for anyone visiting the Finger Lakes.

Staff was helpful, easy check in. Was able to upgrade easily. Lay out and view of the lakes was beautiful. Everything was fairly clean, found hair in the shower but other than that nice. Just what we needed for a get away. Would go again actually! Close to vineyards

We stayed in the Graphite room with our four-legged best friend. The room was spacious and had everything we could need. We had a fantastic view of the lake from bed. We are avid birders and this location has plenty of wildlife, with many nearby trails. There is great proximity to the breweries and wineries on Seneca Lake. We had brunch on location - it was phenomenal! Cappuccino and Eggs Benedict with the beautiful Seneca Lake view. Would come back again!

Rating: 2.5–3 stars This property sits in an absolutely beautiful location with stunning views of the lake and the hills to the west. The sunsets are truly incredible, and the overall atmosphere is quiet and peaceful. The front yard has a lot of charm and potential, though the grass was noticeably overgrown during my stay. The experience itself was unusual. I was greeted briefly by someone who handed me the key, but after that I didn’t see a single staff member, and there’s no real reception area or on‑site support. The lobby area is large, open, and clean, but it feels more like a shared space than a staffed hotel. My room was clean overall, but the bedding was disappointing. The sheets and pillow had an odor, and I found hair on them, which made it feel like they hadn’t been properly changed. The room has a lovely large window ledge where you can sit and enjoy the view, but the paint was peeling noticeably. This place definitely has potential, especially given the location and the quiet surroundings. I agree with other reviewers that it’s more of a 2.5–3‑star experience—an upgrade from camping or a basic motel, but not quite a full-service hotel yet.
