Perfect Escape!

We stayed at Antler Ridge for our anniversary weekend with our family, and it did not disappoint! The property and home are BEAUTIFUL! The fire pit was perfect for a late night card game. We had a small glitch when we checked in but Marty was quick to address it and none of our plans were affected! Thank you for sharing this gem with us!

Wonderful stay

From the start of booking all the way through checkout, the property manager was responsive. The house was the cleanest I’ve seen at any property I’ve stayed at and the host provided all essentials as well as games and much more. I enjoyed my stay here and I would suggest booking here if you are staying in Watkins Glen.

Weekend Getaway

Overall, this property was beautiful to stay at. The location was secluded so we had our privacy and there were plenty of space and rooms for all of us. Our favorite part, was the wrap around deck and the seating area by the fire. It was a perfect weekend getaway and would recommend! There were only a couple window air conditioning units so if you plan to stay in the summer with a lot of guests make sure to pack some fans!

The perfect event setting!

My husband and I renewed our vows for our 25th wedding anniversary, and we used both the main house and the party house for the event. We comfortably slept 13 people in the house, and hosted about 30 people for the event itself. There was plenty of space in the party house to host the reception, and we had fires every evening with the plentiful wood that the hosts provided. Overall, this was a perfect venue for our group!!

What an amazing house location and host

The house was great for our family reunion! The wrap around patio and fire pit was the focal part of our trip. The location was 7 minute drive to the state park and 3 minute drive to the tip of the lake. The house was spacious and clean. Cheryl was our main contact during our stay...was absolutely wonderful. She was so helpful with reccomendations it made us feel so comfortable with the area. Thanks again!!

Great Location

It was a great place to get away with the family. Plenty of space to move around. We spent a lot of time on the decks. The creek was so helpful to get relief from the heat. The beds were not the most comfortable and the sheets would not stay on . That was why i gave 4 stars and not 5.

Great Stay

My friends and I recently stayed here for a long weekend. Cheryl and Marty were wonderful, greeting us upon our arrival and gifting us with two delicious bottles of wine from a local winery. The house was spacious and comfortable with plenty of seating both inside and outside for our large group. The bed I slept on was very comfortable and the rooms had so much storage and closet space! They also provided everything we could ever need at the house! It was stocked with enough plates and towels for a small army so we never ran out! I highly recommend this listing if you are looking to get away for the weekend with some friends! Thanks Marty and Cheryl for an amazing stay!

Perfect for large family gathering

This was a fabulous place for a large family get together. It was as advertised. We especially enjoyed the ample space, including a large basement where the kids could play their favorite games. The only downsides were no washer/dryer (though the manager said they would make a laundry room available in the coming months) and no internet. Fortunately our mifi devices worked so no harm. Management was extremely responsive when we had questions or an issue. We would gladly stay here next time we visit the region.

We will return!

We are a group of friends/daughters ranging in age from 30 to 75. This was the 14th year for our wine tour. This house was perfect for us. The deck space was beautiful and we used it at sunrise and sunset! The only issue we had was that there was no internet or tv service. There was a router but we couldn’t get it to connect. There was Direct TV but it would not connect either. Overall, we were very happy with the house. We will return!

Great house in a beautiful setting

Sixteen family members, including kids and a baby, stayed at the property. The house is convenient to everything on a beautiful and quiet hillside just a mile or so from town - a 5 minute drive or 20 minute walk. Some of our group actually pitched tents on the grounds, but the indoor sleeping arrangements were adequate. The kids enjoyed the downstairs bunk room. (Be aware that the bunk room sleeps 8, but 4 of the sleeping spaces are upper bunks which are a tight fit even for children.) We hope that the landlord will be able to replace missing screens on the porch, and have some window cranks repaired. All in all, it was a very pleasant experience for our family reunion.

Great house, beautiful setting, exactly as advertised

This house served as home base for a weekend gathering of friends. It would also be perfect for a large family gathering. The setting is very private and quiet. The grounds are beautifully tended. There is a large fire pit/grill outside and the porch is huge with plenty of seating for all. The interior of the house is well kept, though the decor is a bit dated. That certainly didn’t matter to us. Kitchen and bathrooms were all fully functional. Kitchen was stocked with basic tools, bathrooms were well stocked with towels. Note that the house doesn’t have wifi but does have a couple of TVs. We didn’t rent the additional party area, though we did peek in the windows and it looked great. Overall, I would highly recommend a stay here!
