Perfect for exploring
Property was well furnished and convenient to local places, including the Gorge. The Gorge route wasn’t yet open for the season, but was able to hike the North Rim. Lakewood winery was amazing!

A great escape!
A wonderful place to stay, close to town and all the Watkins Glen and Seneca Lake activities. The apartment was clean and cozy. The only complaint I have was the bed wasn't super comfortable, but the couch was! I would definitely stay here again.

Would stay again
I wold have given 5 stars if it wasn't for the check-in process. Only got door code a day b-4. Also 3:00 is a late check-in, but they were finished cleaning by 2:30 which helped a lot.

Bright & clean suite between the lake and Watkins Glen State Park
Bright and clean, close to the lake, the park, and many shops and restaurants. The washer and dryer were a bonus, being on a 2 and a half week road trip.
