We spent a great week at the property in Watkins Glen. Everything was exactly as advertised and is in a perfect location to explore the Finger Lakes region. We really enjoyed sitting on the balcony and watching all the activities in the harbor, armed with an appropriate beverage of course. The Host, Ann, was delightful and was very available if we needed anything. We would definitely stay at the property again.

Location is perfect! Great views of the lake and marina. Within a short walk to the main marina, and walking distance to restaurants, coffee shops, breweries, and ice cream shops. Watkins Glen is a nice town. The home is spacious and had sleek furnishings. Decor is sparse which contributed to some echoing. There are stairs within the home, just be aware. The master suite is roomy and had a large closet space. The second bedroom does not have storage space. We loved having access to a garage. A note about some of the exterior sounds in other reviewers' posts, there is a horn/whistle that sounds at 7:00 am, 12:00 pm, 12:30 pm, and 3:00 pm. We didn't find out the origin but based on the times, seems like it aligns with a work whistle. We encountered the train only twice in the stay and one day was at 1:00 pm and the other day was at 9:00 am, neither time were during sleeping hours. The host communicated everything we would need to know ahead of our stay, is very friendly, and takes great care of the property grounds. We enjoyed our stay and would be interested in this property in future visits.

Had a great stay. Condo was spacious, spotless, and right by the water. We were able to walk everywhere- did not use our car at all. Took the wine trolley, hiked Watkins Glenn State Park and kayaked Seneca Lake. The accommodations and area did not disappoint- would definitely return.

Marvelous Watkins Glen Apartment

Whenever we visit Watkins Glen, we always stay at this marvelous apartment. The location is perfect - a few minutes' walk to all the town's attractions, restaurants, shops and the magnificent gorge. The owners, Ann & Dan, are so easy to contact and, having met them in person on occasion, they are lovely people. If you are staying in Watkins Glen, this is the place to stay!

Last minute get away!!

We have stayed at this location multiple times to date. It is in a great location (easily walk about town), the owners are easy to communicate with and quick to respond to questions and/or issues (of which there were none). The view of the lake and mountains is beautiful. We can't wait to our next get away and stay here.Jim and Judi

I knew there were train tracks nearby but I didn’t realize they are right out the front door. And the train went by at 7am on Saturday and shook the whole apartment lol Views are great and the unit is clean and well stocked.

Weekend away

My husband and I met up with our friends from out of state for the weekend and stayed here. This property is within walking distance to all of the downtown restaurants and very close to Watkins Glen State Park. The home was perfect for two couples to share. We loved having the balcony to look over the lake. The place was very clean and communication with the host was 10/10. They even gave great recommendations for transportation to/from wineries and activities to so. Would definitely recommend this place to a friend!
