Nice little motel just a short drive to Watkins Glen State Park and local restaurants. The room was clean and comfortable, and the deck area was a great place to relax with a view of the lake. A peaceful and convenient spot for a Finger Lakes getaway!

Great view
eoin, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Simple, clean motel room with some nice, updated touches, including a spacious bathroom with updated retro fixtures (additional shelving or surface space would be nice, but kudos for the numerous hooks). A bit pricey at more than $300 a night, given limited amenities (no pool, sauna, lobby games, or attractions on the property aside from inviting deck space with adirondacks and picnic tables). Big props for the panoramic lake views from the rooms and the stylish restaurant with its fabulous menu and chef (highly recommend the jerk chicken!)
Julianne, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The property has been nicely renovated. Our room had a great view of the lake.

Heidi, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

We loved the stay and the location was great overlooking the Seneca lake. The staff, especially at the restaurant was very friendly and accommodating, the restaurant ambience and food was exceptional. Unfortunately, had to cut short our visit due to personal reasons, but plans to return in the nearby future.

Beautiful property by the lake. Will stay again.
Heajeong, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Nice hotel cabin style with balcony and views of Lake Seneca about 1 miles from downtown Glen Watkins; easy access and nice renovated rooms - there is a restaurant on site and check in is until 9 pm so one needs to make arrangements for late check in. Easy access to the famous state park and the gorge trail. Would stay again if in the area.
Liviu, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The woman who checked us in on her birthday was fabulous. She also worked the restaurant as well. Super friendly and informative. All of the staff were great. There a bonus with a band for fourth of July we didn't know about. Great overall experience.
Sunrise!
