This completely renovated guesthouse has all the perks of being at home and is uniquely situated in the heart of the Finger Lakes. The guesthouse includes accommodations for six, has a fully equipped kitchen, a master suite with a soaking tub, three stone patios, an outside fire pit, a six-person hot tub, washer/dryer, and three acres of charming, wooded walking trails. This location is so picturesque that you have to see it to believe it!

Connected to the Catherine Valley Trail, this is a great option for nature lovers. The property is centrally located between Ithaca, Corning, and Elmira. Watkins Glen International is less than five miles away and the Seneca Lake Wine Trail begins 3 miles from this location.

Beautiful and peaceful getaway
The property felt like home from the minute we arrived to the unfortunate task of having to leave. My wife and I loved the location, so close to town and attractions but far enough away to only hear the sounds of nature.

Great location, great property to enjoy Finger Lakes
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.

Relaxing getaway
This is an amazing property in a great location to the wineries. The house was immaculate and the owner was quick to respond to any messages. The best part was relaxing at the end of each night in the jacuzzi. I highly recommend this property to any one looking to spend some time in the Finger Lakes.

PEACEFUL STAY
The place was exactly the way it was shown on VRBO website and very clean. Quiet neighborhood with a family of deer that came to visit in the morning. Close to restaurants and attractions. The owner has a book on the kitchen counter with all sorts of brochures for family jaunts and wine tour for the adults. The scenic waterfalls trail at Watkins State Park is spectacular.

Relaxing and comfortable stay
We had a great stay for our first trip to the area. The house was exceptionally clean and perfect for our family of four. The front porch was relaxing in the morning for that first cup of coffee and at night with a glass of wine as the sun sets. The house had very nice amenities and having a hot tub was a bonus. The location was convenient to Watkins Glen State Park and other hiking areas along with a cute downtown. We definitely recommend staying here and hope to come again.

A Quiet, Immaculate Hideaway
Great little house in a quiet, lovely location. The place was immaculate, with comfortable furnishings and lots of nice small touches. The bathrooms were especially nice, and with excellent water pressure, compared to most rental properties. Photos are accurate, but the house is even nicer than it appears in them. Highly recommended.
