The hill to get to the property is crazy. The room was dusty but otherwise clean enough. I rented the room for the bar and breakfast. Breakfast is not what you think it is, prepacked muffins and coffee. The bar closes off season because it is not attached to the hotel. Beautiful view of the lake from the balcony.

We went to visit Watkins Glen state park. The inn did the job but I wouldn’t stay here again. Room wasn’t super clean, shower was pretty yucky. Shower tiles were falling off. Loud cars going up and down the hill all night and early morning. Like I said, it did the job but never again.
