We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at their beautiful B&B. Marcus couldn't have been more accommodating and Elin's breakfast were awesome! Their historic home was so fun to stay in. We were close to the many hikes, falls and wineries along the lake. Great vacation!

My wife and I felt at home during our stay. Your place is beautiful and the staff was very friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed our breakfasts on the front porch every morning. Hopefully we both get to see the legendary E Street Band in 2024 🎸

This beautiful old home has been converted into a beautiful historic in. We’ve stayed there several times, in fact we got married there! It’s always in pristine condition. Spa services we used is only the registered massage, but it was excellent too. The staff are unbelievably perfect. The food is exceptional. I would recommend this to anybody! It’s worth a visit to go and see it for yourself.

This property is wonderful, the staff are welcoming, friendly and incredible. Hot water, excellent water pressure and well equipped for plug ins. The breakfast is homemade and fantastic! The service is 5 star and unmatchable. Can’t wait to go back. Cycling, wineries and fantastic food options. Fell in love with Idlwilde and Watkins Glen

Lovely gracious comfortable stay. Room 14 was large with beautiful view. Air conditioning worked well and bed was amazingly comfortable. The house common areas and grounds are fantastic. Wonderful big porch with many comfy chairs and view of lake and well maintained gardens. Great breakfast and coffee (delicious veggie quiche, sausage, cantaloupe wedges, potatoes- changes daily) Owners and staff go above and beyond too!!
