Finger lakes family vacation.

We loved the area and the property. 10 minutes from Watkins Glen and Seneca Lake. Everything was exactly as advertised. The guest house is a little closer to the main house than I had expected, but it still felt very private. Would absolutely stay again.

Home base for Watkins Glen and wine trail

The property is a great home base for accessing Watkins Glen and the Seneca Lake wine trail. It was clean and comfortable for our family, and the hot tub was a nice bonus after a day of hiking. Would definitely recommend this place for exploring the area.

Our second time staying here and it's really great. Clean, well stocked kitchen, comfortable, private, 7ish minutes from WGI, right on the Catherine Valley Trail.. My husband and I ended up using both bedrooms since we don’t do well sharing queen beds, but the beds are comfortable. Hosts are super responsive, replying and bringing us more propane within 10 minutes. We highly recommend this property.

This property was perfect for 2 couples. Features included split floor plan, modern, comfortable furnishings, well-appointed kitchen, and location close to Watkins Glen. The 6-person hot tub was a great bonus, which we really enjoyed after some great hikes in the region.
