Great short stay

Anne's property is very clean and convenient to town as well as some of the best local wineries! It's close to the main road so you hear traffic/trucks on the 3rd floor but not in the main bedroom area so it worked out well overall. I would stay again and hope to when back in the area!

Great Stay as Always

This was our 4th time staying at this property. We always enjoy our stay. We never have complaints. Dan & Ann are always accommodating. Even though we come during the off-peak season, the location and area are a good place to get away from the hustle and bustle. We enjoy the beautiful view of the Seneca Lake, and the comfort of home. The kitchen was fully stocked with utensils, and pots and pans, that allowed us to cook as we needed. We will be back.

Great Location

Nice place, with a beautiful view of the lake. Lots of stairs, which is kind of the nature of the beast with this kind of condo. Plenty of room for my wife and I and having access/use of the garage was a great perk. Location is fantastic too - begin walking around Watkins Glen by literally stepping out the door.

Wonderful spot for peaceful vacation

If your looking for a place in Watkins Glen look no further as this is the place you want to stay. Centrally located in town this can be a walking vacation as for as things to do in town. You are also located on the main roads that go north for Wineries and other attractions. The place is spotless and you have a deck off main living area that you can enjoy cup of coffee each morning and watch the sunrise. So Relaxing and peaceful. It is extremely roomy and comfortable. Everything you need is here as well as 2.5 bathrooms and washer & dryer. The owners are so friendly and pleasant to deal with. You are also stones throw away from all the lake cruises that are available to you. We did the sunset cruise one night that was so peaceful and informative about the lake and surrounding area. We also attended the Corning museum of glass which was really fun to do. Walked around the town of corning as well. The wineries along RT 14 are so nice and friendly as well as extremely picturesque. So nice just to sit and take in the scenery. We attended Lakewood, Fulkerson & Shaw wineries. On our last day we drove to the north end of the lake and went to Geneva. There is a state park there called Seneca Lake Park. Beautiful grounds to take nice walk as well as little beach which for people with kids there is a splash park right next to the beach. Along our stay we had some bad weather one day and lost power for couple hours but owners gave us lanterns to use during the night.

Fabulous family vacation!

We had a lovely time with the kids here! Dan was a very responsive host. There were many activities to do with the kids nearby- several state parks, beautiful hikes, a boat ride, a local creamery up the road, and a swimming area at the lake (at Clute Park) right around the corner! During downtime, it was so relaxing to be right next to the water. And the view of the fireworks on the Fourth of July from the property’s patio was a fan favorite! Would definitely stay again!

Great long weekend getaway

The hosts were great with communication and recommendations! Although the townhouse has many flights of stairs, it was very spacious, had comfy beds and beautiful views. We were in Watkins Glen for 4 days which was just the right amount of time to hit some wineries, hike two state parks, go to a local creamery, kayak and go to Corning for glass blowing. Would recommend!

Race Weekend

This is the second time we have stayed at the Watkins Brewery Rentals for long weekend during the 6 hours of Sahlens race at Watkins Glen. The unit is very clean and well equipped. The location is perfect and is walking distance to the village as well as Walmart and Clute Park beach if you have your walking shoes on. We plan to stay again next year.

Friends vacation

We have stayed in these properties for several years now. Usually 4 to 8 of us. In various townhomes. This year we had 108 friends had one on the far end away from Watkins Glen. I have never had any issues but this year 108 did not seem as clean as the other units from the past. Cobwebs at bottom of kitchen cabinets, looked like blood on a pillowcase and I assume a dirty towel left on back of bathroom door.

Flawless as always

The views are amazing, the beds are comfortable, kitchen is well equipped. Location could not be more perfect. I’ve stayed at lots of local rentals in the area which were filled with uncomfortable furniture and consistently unaddressed rodent infestations. I’ve stayed with WGBVR three times and don’t plan on ever going through the headache of staying anywhere else.

Convenient and scenic

This has to be one of the best places to stay in Watkins Glen. Easy walking distance to most in-town attractions and restaurants. Plus you have a beautiful view of Seneca Lake. The property itself was clean and as advertised. Check-in was easy with passcode from owner. Use of the garage to park our car added to the security.

Perfection

If I could give more than 5 stars I would. It was like a second home for the few days we were there. They thought of every possible need you could have and it was at your disposal. The view was amazing even despite the bad weather we had. It was perfect for our family of three, areas we could come together but also spaces to be alone and cozy. Wish we could have stayed longer.
