What a fabulous hotel! The room, Jacuzzi tub, firepits, views, restaurant food, service... everything was top notch! We loved the location for checking out some of the nearby falls, towns, and restaurants. The Gorge is a 7 minute walk from the hotel and well worth a visit! Highly recommend this hotel!

fun glamming for the first time!! the down comforter and hot water bottles kept me warm in the bed on the first cool and rainy weekend of the Fall. the bathrooms are modern and convenient. the property is located next to the Watkins Glen international raceway where I was racing and is minutes to downtown Watkins Glen. The tent was cozy and there were fire pits and wood for nice fires. the owner stays on the property and is very attentive to your needs.

    The Vintage Grand Prix weekend at Watkins Glen was on our bucket list for several years, and it was very much worth the wait. The Friday events included the vintage race through the downtown, and it was amazing to see all the old race/sports cars thundering down the main drag. The historic recreation of the technical inspection of the pre-war cars at Smalley's Garage was the highlight of Friday's events. It was awesome to be able to walk the stunning falls in the morning, browse the shops in the afternoon and view the vintage race at 6pm. The array of bars and restaurants with so many cuisine choices was quite amazing for such a quaint business district.

    Beautiful town that we are planning to visit again in the near future. We felt our weekend stay was too short. There is more to enjoy that just the gorge and waterfalls at the State Park (which in and of itself is a great experience). We stayed at Lakeside Resort which is top notch. Watkins Glen has several restaurants which are high quality. Even the cafe of the State Park served delicious sandwiches. Several vineyards are accessible from village. Corning is also close by and the Museum is worth a visit.

    Even in winter, the waterfalls and lake are beautiful. Expect most of the main trails to be closed, so plan a few extra things to do. Walking around the town and shops, walk along the lake at state parks, visit Corning Museum of Glass, ski, tube or ride a mountain coaster are all within great distance!

    Watkins Gen is a small town but has everything in walking distance from food, drinks, shopping and State Park and is a great place to stay after touring the wineries of Seneca Lake. I always stop in Columbia Sportswear Company, a neat store with tons of clothing selections. Two recommendations for places to eat Jerlando's and Thai Elephants.

    The state park is exceptional, we were there last year, but didn’t have time to do the whole length of the gorge trail, so had to come back. Loved it both times. Staying in Watkins Glen just made it easy.
