The property was charming, we felt like we were home when I walked in. It was Inviting, comfortable, tastefully decorated and clean. The host that we had the pleasure of meeting was very personable and friendly. He gave us a lot of good information about the sights and the entertainment available, along with all best dining establishments which included their very own Blackberry Cafe',. YUMMY homemade fresh bagels daily. Headed back next year, if they'll have us. Thank You so much

Very nice property. As everything was keyless entry, I never met the owners. Breakfast was at their little shop a few minutes walk from the inn. They provided a voucher for breakfast each day to be presented at the shop. Excellent fresh bagel sandwiches.

Thanks to hosts Brian and David for an exceptional long weekend stay in Watkins Glen to enjoy local hiking and Lake Seneca. The location was perfect. Breakfast at the Blackberry Inn Kitchen (cafe) with homemade bagels and pastries was exceptional. And their cheesecake? To die for!

This was not a b&b, it was an airb&b at best. No one to greet us, codes to get in, no door on the bathroom! Just a curtain! No breakfast on the premises, you have to walk to the shop they run to eat with a coupon to cover your breakfast. Room was not great, broken blinds, dust bunnies everywhere, water bottle left over from last guest, no bathroom toiletries, old and rusted shower caddy, crusted shower head, did I mention NO DOOR ON THE BATHROOM!!

Our stay at the inn was excellent for many reasons! The gracious hosts were kind and accommodating, helping us get into our rooms alright. The breakfast everyday was such a treat, a tasty and fresh start to our days in town. We were able to walk to Watkins Glen state park, as well as any number of shops and restaurants, because the location was so convenient -- just a few steps from the main street. Despite the proximity to town, the Blackberry Inn felt quiet and cozy and safe and quite apart from any of the traffic and hubbub happening just those two short blocks over. Our room/s were well equipped, very clean, and so comfy. There happened to be a region-wide power outage from a storm during our stay and were able to find emergency lanterns in the closets. It's all is thought of in advance, and the hosts are glad to help upon request. Just a few quick minutes drive to wineries, the lake, walmart, etc. Wonderful stay! Would absolutely stay again and recommend to others.

Nice but could be improved

The Inn is conveniently situated, so the harbour, the restaurants and State Park are easily walkable. The hosts are very inviting and the service is excellent. Our criticism is the our room could have been cleaner and the garden needs attention.
