The property was very beautiful and so was our room. Only complaint was the bedframe was pretty squeaky anytime you changed sleeping positions. Other than that, the mattress was a lot more comfy than other hotels I've stayed at.
Excellent accommodations. Friendly staff. Lovely surroundings. Facility and grounds well maintained and quaint.Excellent location for the wine tour, town, and Watkins Glen State Park. I would recommend this Inn highly to anyone
The historic home and property were beautiful and clean. Marcus was attentive and made our visit very pleasant. Short walk down the hill to the waterfront. Close to Watkins Glen Park - a must see!
Stunning mansion, beautiful grounds, spectacular breakfast, and a bed nearly as comfy as the one we sleep on at home! Marcus and Elin are an absolute delight and make you feel like family when you’re there. Their dog, Stella, is also the sweetest thing and will make sure you feel welcomed upon arrival.
Can’t wait to come back next time we’re in the Finger Lakes!
