I was really happy with this house. The kitchen had plenty of flatware, cookware, plates, and cups. The beds were comfortable, ample dining space, comfortable couch-all 5 of us fit to watch a movie. The neighborhood is quiet. Thereâs a playground a few blocks away that I walked to with my kids. The people we encountered were very friendly. I felt safe. Thereâs a bunch of restaurants in the area & a grocery store. Itâs super close to Watkins Glen state park. The backyard is very large. I wish I had thought to bring a soccer ball for the kids to play out there. The Wi-Fi was great. I would stay there again.
Location was great for walking to the lake and to Watkins Glen State Park. Also an easy drive to Ithaca. House itself was spacious, but a little extra cleaning around windows would be helpful to allow windows to be opened to enjoy the fresh air. Property manager was very responsive with a maintenance request.
Awesome accommodations for Race weekend. So convenient to town. Close to bars, restaurants and local sights - but on a nice quiet street. Couldnât ask for more!
Flip House. Surface Clean but needs improvement. Sofa was dirty we found food and a vape pen under the cushions. The bathrooms needed a good bleaching. The grill and picnic table should have been cleaned.
This house is spacious and has 5 queen-size beds in four bedrooms. It's also located very close to a Walmart and downtown. But it's also an older house that has some issues. It's not as clean as we'd hoped, and none of the beds have mattress pads. It only has minimal amenities. The property manager is very responsive and quick to resolve issues. It's OK for a short-term stay.
Girlsâ weekend for wine tasting! The house was perfect for the 4 of us. Everyone had their own room. The house was clean and smelled good! We loved that the beds were made and everything we needed was provided in the bathrooms and kitchen. We definitely enjoyed hanging out talking in the evenings on the comfy couch. Wonderful home in a great location!
Place was clean and spacious like described, walking distance to Watkins Glen State Park, restaurants and bars. Minor issues going on but speedy response from host. I would stay here again!
The house was within walking distance to state park, shops and restaurants. Even though the house has been redone on the inside, there were a few issues. The water/ice maker on the fridge were not working and the front steps were slightly dangerous. Bedrooms were spacious and beds comfortable. I would say the house was "bare bones" as far as amenities go, but we only spent 2 nights so it was OK for us.
The house had everything that we needed. Location was great! Could walk to Watkins Glen State Park and to restaurants. Short drive to several wineries. We had a great time!
The place was nice for what it is. Older house that has a nice renovation. Great location, restaurants and stores only a few blocks away. Great coffee. Shop just around the corner. Friendly people and quiet neighborhood.
The house itself was really nice. Disappointed because it was not clean. You pay a lot of money to stay in these homes and you would think they would be clean. Floors were filthy and spider webs everywhere.
Overall the rental was fine. Location is awesome. Quiet neighborhood and super close to everything. The kitchen is lacking some things so if you rent, make sure to bring absolutely everything you need.
As others have indicated, seating is an issue. If you have more than 6 adults, there isn't anywhere for everyone to sit and play games or even talk. Unfortunately someone had broken 2 chairs so we didn't even have 8 chairs around the table to eat together.
Communication with rental management was quick and easy. Just have appropriate expectations, it's clearly an older home that was remodeled for a rental.
Generally clean and comfortable. Our group loved the location. The good thing is...if you need anything Walmart is next door!
There were 10 of us,and we all had a comfy stay. The house is in a great neighborhood very close to everything you need. We did a lot of hiking, biking, kayaking and restaurants. There's also a Walmart 2 min away if you need to buy foodstuffs. We didn't spend much time in the house, just the nights. And we've noticed how quiet it is at night. We didn't cook either, so hard to judge the kitchen supplies,but breakfast places are so close,we didn't even want to bother about cooking.
For those who want to visit just Watkins Glen State Park, it's 3 min away!
All in all, we loved our stay and hope to be back!
Great location especially for the lake and park. The area was beautiful. The host Courtney was very nice and helpful. I would just suggest having a mop available, washer and dryer. The house had enough room for the family. There were also food and other stores close by some within walking distance.
All in all it was a great location and very convenient for what we wanted to do. The front porch could use a little TLC, but it did not have any impact on our trip.
We stayed here for race weekend and it was okay. The house is great if you are only sleeping here. 5 queen beds but not very comfortable. There was a living room with a sectional but aside from kitchen table no additional common space. There was 1 TV in the house which was tough with kids. Also the backyard is very large and flat but there was no outside seating besides an old picnic table. I feel like there were a lot of misses here. The large room upstairs was very hot even with fans. I probably wouldnât stay here again.
Upon our arrival we thought we were arriving at an abandoned property based on the condition of the yardâŠ.extremely tall grass or shall I say a lawn of weeds. Someone scalped the lawn midway during our stay leaving all dead clippings on the yard. Overgrown landscaping infringing on sidewalk. Weeds growing in cracks of sidewalk. Front porch appeared to collapse at any moment from deteriorating wood.
Interior⊠no central heating and cooling. You needed to set the radiator cooler to 60 degrees in order to cool all rooms thus freezing you out of the central located room. No mattress pads on beds and poor fitting sheets, and sub par bath towels.
We would never stay at this property again and would NOT recommend!
Enjoyed our stay. Easy access to wineries on both sides of the lake. Four bedrooms provided plenty of space for group of 7. Good size kitchen and family room. Kitchen could be a little better stocked with kitchen wares I.e. more pots/pans, pitchers, carving knives, etc.
