We visited here to hike at Watkins Glen and also to break up the drive to Niagara Falls, and did not regret staying here. The property overlooks the lake - there is no lake access but there are nice trails that run to a creek and waterfall that makes for a nice hike. Rocky, the owner's chocolate lab, is such a sweet dog and we enjoyed having him around. We stayed in a room with a balcony that overlooks the lake, and it was nice in the evening to sit with a beer or wine and enjoy the view. The staff at the in-house restaurant was also very warm and attentive.

5 HUGE STARS!!! We had an absolutely incredible stay at Naturlux and Resort! From the moment we arrived, the owner made us feel so welcomed – her hospitality truly sets the tone for the whole experience. The facilities were immaculate, top-notch, and full of thoughtful touches that made everything so comfortable. The vibe of the resort was perfect – relaxed yet upscale. The rooms/tents were spotless, the beds extremely comfortable, and the entire place was pet-friendly, which was a huge bonus! The location is ideal, with so many fantastic restaurants and activities just a short distance away. Whether you’re looking for relaxation or adventure, this place has it all. I can’t recommend it highly enough – I’ll definitely be back! We love you Dawn ♥️
