This a unique property with very good energy. It is very clean and the bed is comfortable. Jennifer was delightful and brought us wine, cheese, crackers and salami - a wonderful treat to share with our guests. The kitchen was well appointed and we made pancakes and eggs for our family that we visited. All were very interested to see inside the property. I would stay there again in an instant!

This small house feels like a writer's retreat, with greenery all around and a beautiful book-lined room to sit and read in. Lovely place.

This property was very unique. From the first step in to the last step out the owner delivered. From the quality of the bedding/linens to the impeccable WI-FI the experience was "Like No Other"

The property, neighborhood, and overall general area are all absolutely beautiful. Such a comfortable and cozy spot to come back to after visiting Watkins Glen and many other of the must-sees of the area. Definitely a historical piece to the neighborhood of which this property is located which makes it even more special. Jennifer, the host, is just remarkable. Will go out of her way to accommodate your every request and need. We will definitely be back :)

Lovely retreat and good base for the Finger Lakes
This was a truly lovely and quiet property - very well appointed, classily and distinctively decorated, complete with fresh flowers, welcome goodies in the fridge, and basic pantry items. A wall of books made us want to just stay in and read! Lovely walking neighborhood and easy access to Corning and other Finger Lakes attractions - including glider rides from Harris Hill, hiking at Watkins Glen, campus gawking in Ithaca, and a multitude of wineries. Attentive, friendly and fascinating, but never intrusive host! Would return in a heartbeat.
