"There is a nice front porch to have your coffee and always a nice breeze off the lake in the back yard for cocktail hour!The best part is that the Harbor Hotel and the water front bar - The Lucky Hare, are within a very short walking distance. Every now and then a train goes by slowly , adding to the charm. You can hear the engineer blow the whistle, so you have time to watch it go by. This is our 3rd year"

Gorgeous views from charming headquarters in the heart of the Finger Lakes

10/10 Excellent
"The place was very clean and in walking distance to downtown Watkins Glen and the gorge entrance. We walked all over town and had breakfast at the several coffee shops. Stopped in and had beers at the small restaurant/bars and shopped. Very friendly town. We especially like the hot peel and eat shrimp at Kookalaroc's. Delicious!!! During the day we drove up to Geneva and Hammondsport just to see the countryside. We are not wine drinkers but if you are, this is the area to be! Many winery's all along the lakes.I did try to reach the owner a couple of times before we arrived but got no reply until the morning of our arrival. No big deal everything went very well. We did meet her mother who was very nice. I would recommend this place for sure."
