The apartment is very nice and has a lot of supplies and thoughtful touches. I would not hesitate to recommend it. I did not however get the check-in instructions automatically and had to follow up several times before I received those. Te anpartmn itself is very central within Watkins Glen and has an easy walk to local restaurants and the state park.

Just Perfect!

We wanted a place close to the restaurants and shops in town, and this was the perfect spot. We were minutes away from all that Watkins Glen has to offer, but it was still quiet and peaceful. The property is nicely equipped with everything you might need for a relaxing visit to this beautiful part of NY.

Girls weekend

This property exceeded my expectations. Much more spacious in person with no detail overlooked. Truly felt welcoming and at home. So close to shops and restaurants, but quiet and peaceful. Perfect for a fun girls weekend in a new area. Already want to come back with the family and explore even more.

Getaway

This was a quaint property in the Finger Lakes region. It was clean, there was coffee, towels, toiletries and everything one would need for a long weekend getaway in an area with beautiful scenery and close to nice museums The Rockwell and Corning Museum of Glass. I felt the temperature should have been adjusted to a comfortable level for check-in, but it did heat up quickly. Me and "guest" had a great time :)
