Boxwood Cottage, sleeps 8, nestled in the woods

Boxwood Cottage is a restful, peace-filled cottage tucked in the woods, just off of the Seneca Lake Wine Trail.  Located along a small rural road, but within easy distance of the west side of Seneca Lake, the Wine Trail, and Watkins Glen, this cottage offers both quiet spaces and easy accessibility to the Finger Lakes.

After you enter through the gated entry at the end of the lane, you'll follow the driveway as it winds back in through the trees and along the fields.  The cottage is set back in a clearing in the woods, with sunlight filtering through the trees and the sounds of birdsong.  Sit in the yard or around the firepit and enjoy the quiet breezes in the trees or take a short walk along the mowed paths through the wooded areas.

Stepping in to the home, you'll fall in love with the comfortable and cozy decor and living spaces.  The Kitchen, Dining room, and Living room are all one open space with a small sunken room--a great little office space--is just a few steps down from the Living room.   The Kitchen has a large island with bar stools, there is a Dining table for sit down dinners, and the Living room has cozy seating with a couch and several chairs (Fireplace is not useable).  The sunken office area has a bar and bar stools, a great spot to sit with a lap top and watch nature out the window while you work on vacation.

Going back the hallway, Bedroom 1 will be on the left.  This bedroom has a queen bed with an en suite bathroom located two steps down from the bedroom.  Bedroom 2 is at the end of the hallway, on the left as well, and has a Queen bed.  The second bathroom is located directly at the end of the hallway and has a tub/shower.  On the right is the third bedroom with 2 Queen beds and another en suite bathroom with a tub/shower.

There is a large mudroom/entry room and laundry off of the Kitchen and this separates the main living areas from the garage, which has been turned into a Family room/Game room.  This family room space is large with sitting areas, games for the family to enjoy, and a table that can be converted into a small pool table or small ping pong table.

If you are a nature lover, you'll enjoy sitting on the deck and watching the birds, deer and other wildlife that wander into the clearing.  There is a firepit on the side yard for cozy campfires in the evening, while you stargaze through the trees.  We are sure you'll love the quiet peace that wraps around Boxwood Cottage and we invite you to visit!

In town for an event

Private! Room for 7 or 8 people comfortably. Plenty of parking. Plenty of indoor and outdoor space. House is well appointed with essentials for cooking and cleaning. Condiments and seasonings are up to you to bring. Would live here if they would sell it to me!

Chocolate and Wine weekend

Beautiful home, pictures are accurate. Comfy and cozy for 3 couples with private bedrooms and bathrooms. Would love to come back in warm weather to enjoy the outdoors. The Valentine cookies in the fridge was a nice surprise.

Wonderful vacation stay

Beautiful home, very clean and updated. If you are looking for secluded, this is your place. We loved it! It was cold and snowy when we arrived, so we weren’t able to enjoy the outside area, but I would love to come back sometime when the weather is better. Plenty of room for 8 people and 3 bathrooms were a big plus for us. Big kitchen, didn’t use the game room, because the garage is not heated, but it sure looked fun. We were there for the Seneca Lake Deck the Halls wine event, so we were gone during the day anyway.

Great location

The location of this home was perfect! At the end of a private drive but close to Watkins glen and many local attractions made our stay great. The home was very clean and plenty of features that included 3 bedrooms and 3 baths which gave each of us a bit of added privacy.

Lovely time at Boxwood!

Stayed at Boxwood for a long weekend and it was fantastic! The home looks exactly as it does in the pictures. It was decorated beautifully and felt like a home I could live in. The beds were comfy and the showers were so relaxing! The property feels very secluded and it was nice to sit outside with the fire pit just appreciating nature. The hosts were responsive and easy to communicate with. The home is about 20 minutes from Watkins Glenn State Park. You can find wineries within 10 minutes in either direction of the home. Our favorite was Three Brothers about 40 minutes away. Highly recommend a stay at Boxwood!
