Beautiful house and view of the lake

We had an amazing graduation weekend at this property. Super clean and the beds were very comfortable. Plenty of space and seating. It was a 40 minute drive to Cornell but it was definitely worth the commute. The host was very responsive and accommodating. Thank you!!

Charming house for lake front getaway

This house was so charming, with beautiful views of the lake in the fall, and lots of beds for a group trip. Perfect location for being close to town, local hiking, and all of the wineries. Julie was a super helpful host with lots of recommendations for things to do in the area. We had a great time!

Fabulous option for a stay in Watkins Glen

Our group of 5 had a wonderful 4 night stay. Julie is a fantastic host who is extremely communicative and responsive. The location is quiet, but easily walkable down to the resort and the town. The house is a gem with several terrific indoor and outdoor spaces for lazy mornings or intimate evenings overlooking the South end of the lake. The house is well-equipped with the location of everything you need clearly labeled, and lots of information posted with options for activities / things to see. Highly recommended

Beautiful Property

Julie was extremely helpful and organized when I was planning our girls trip. She gave countless suggestions for activities! When we arrived, everything was labeled and clean. There were lists of suggestions in the home for drivers and activities to do while staying. One of my favorite parts of this house was waking up in the morning to a beautiful lake view. Overall, we had an amazing stay and I would love to visit again! I appreciate all the help and tips from Julie. I definitely recommend this beautiful home and location for a vacation.

Girls Trip

Had an amazing week staying at Julie’s property in Watkins Glen. The house is near town and you can even walk there which was an added bonus. Julie was a great host and very responsive. My only minor complaint was there isn’t a ton of sitting room in the living room for our larger group of 7 women and the dining room chairs could use some updating but other than that the home was beautifully decorated and Julie has made an amazing effort to make sure we had all the things we needed throughout our stay. Highly recommend!

The perfect place!

This little slice of heaven has so much cool history! It makes it even sweeter that Julie opens her home for others to experience. She knows how to host and make you feel right at home. Everything is clearly labeled to find. It was super clean and we appreciated having shampoo and other toiletries available for our use. The views off the front deck are spectacular! Some of our group rose early to watch the sunrise. We didn’t use the fire pit but it’s so cozy on the deck that we decided to skip going out to eat in the second night and just enjoy. I did reach out to our host while there and she was very prompt and sweet on her responses. This is a fabulous place that we look forward to visiting again!

Amenities, Charm and Comfort at the Heart of Seneca Lake

Our hosts provided a well stocked, functional home in a quiet setting on the south shore of Lake Seneca. With four bedrooms, two sitting areas and scenic outdoor space, we had plenty fo room to spread out and relax. The kitchen and bathrooms are well stocked, and extensive information on area restaurants, wineries and other attractions is provided on "the information wall". Lisa was in touch throughout our stay. This was a fun and convenient base of operations which we highly recommend.
