Enchanted Valley View, Unit 1

The views are awesome from the decks and the sunroom. We only stayed one night but were happy with the place. James was very friendly.

The owner was very nice and accommodating.  Everything was what you would find at your grandmother's house.  I am the type of person who believes everything has its place.  I don't believe a rental needs things like a junk drawer. There were piles of papers, bags of bags,  a broken lamp in the corner, extra chairs and tables in the 3 season room.  You couldn't walk around without hitting a chair or table, etc.  It was obvious the owner cleaned the place, but things were missed like the refrigerator and I felt like I had to clean everything before I could be comfortable.  There were ripped chairs, comforters were ripped, stained carpets, pieces of 2x4s, a Christmas decoration behind the TV, books in piles in the sun room that had fallen over on the floor.There was no air conditioning except for the bedrooms. The refrigerator didn't keep up and we ended up throwing our food away at the end of our stay. The handle on the refrigerator broke off and was not replaced. There were handles on closets that were broken. The door in one bedroom put a hole in the wall and someone shoved plastic bags in the hole instead of going out and getting a circular thing for the wall and a door stopper so the doorknob wouldn't hit the wall anymore.The front step seemed dangerous - loose and wobbly. The kitchen cabinets were very messy. Nothing organized. Extra pieces of laminate floor in the cabinets that curled up. This place had an awesome view. Needs upgrades and deep cleaning.

Very spacious. Sunroom is great. The view was magnificent. Will stay again.

Kitchen was fully equipped beautiful view

We really enjoyed the stay here spent a lot of time in the sunroom looking at the beautiful view , loved looking at all the artifacts and learning what they were it was like stepping into a museum, no complaints was an awesome spot to stay for my birthday! Would stay again!

Views were absolutely amazing! We loved all the antiques and enjoyed looking through the photo albums and scrapbooks. Owner was great with communication if we needed anything. We will definitely stay again!

House was large and we had plenty of room. We loved the sunroom overlooking the valley and saw deer everyday. Check in was easy. Nicely decorated for the holiday.

We had a great short stay. Beautiful site, very roomy, wouldn’t hesitate to book again.

As they say, location location location. Come for the view, stay for the view. Jim is a welcoming and gracious host, the house is warm and homey, and to be honest, we spent all of our time in the sunroom overlooking the valley. Looking forward to being able to stay there again next time I visit Watkins Glen

Beautiful and peaceful....this home in the country was spotless, and offerred absolutely everything we could possibly need. Spacious, incredibly stocked kitchen......and country views for miles. Our dog was so happy to romp in the gigantic grassy property, and we all enjoyed the sunset visit from 8 deer

The house and property are beautiful and truly made for a very comfortable and cozy stay. The views are fantastic and the house was the perfect getaway space for a long weekend exploring the Finger Lakes. Jim was a wonderful host! He communicated everything we needed to know for our stay effectively and is very kind for opening his family home to travelers seeking a quiet and peaceful retreat. We enjoyed all of the unique decor and family history that can be seen throughout the home. We had a wonderful stay and hope to visit again someday!

House was beautiful and fully equipped. Views were stunning. Communication was perfect. Would definitely book again.

After reviewing the posting as an entire house it wasnt clear this was a converted duplex. So there was just a stair well connecting the units and clearly no noise mitigation between floors. Also on the nights the lower unit was not rented the owner/property manager stayed in the unit. I would echo previous reviews: bee infestations on both porches, garbage from previous renters was still outside and cans full, while not filthy, the unit was not clean, very poor water pressure, broken furniture, previous renters food left in the fridge.The view was very nice...but the windows were very dirty.

Loved the decor and the family history!

Beautiful scenery, gorgeous views! You don’t want to miss out on the views from the decks on this home. The home is welcoming and cozy. Plenty of room for families or friends. And fun to walk around reminiscing at some of the antiques and memborlia. Will be back next fall!

Jim was a great host: very communicative and welcoming. The unit has amazing views of a beautiful valley and surrounding hills, which can be enjoyed from the decks or large sunroom. Sunrise was beautiful. Even though the property feels quite rural, it is close to the village of Watkins Glen, the state park and Seneca Lake, making it an excellent location with lots of activity options and places to eat. There are lots of interesting pieces of art, antiques and other historical knick knacks that are really fun to look at. My dog was obsessed with sitting in the sunroom and watching deer down in the field.I could have stayed a few days there, just enjoying how peaceful it was.

An amazing house with a specatular view. Great location. Everything you needed in the kitchen.

Cute enjoyed looking at the antiques. It was like being at home.

Great place to stay, beautiful property with excellent views right near Watkins Glen racetrack and good access to the Town. Would love to stay again!

The place and accommodations were great- loved it and worked well for usOnly issue was the noise from the party in the house below usKept us up till 2 in am - not Jim's fault but was a true inconvenience for us

Had a wonderful stay. Jim is very nice and accommodating. Antiques galore made it feel so homey. View was amazing!!

Great place, did not want to leave. The views and decorative design was unique and welcoming. Picture is of sunrise from deck.

The place has gorgeous views of the mountainside. There are plenty of patio doors that allow for cross ventilation and help you remain cool. I wish we could’ve stayed longer.

The house is well equipped and has a great view. It is a bit dated and needs some repairs to the interior in one place or another.The 6 of us had a great stay.

Choose the location because it’s dog friendly. Glad we did! Beautiful location. Perfect getaway spot!

Had a great stay at this location. It had everything that we needed. The view was absolutly stunning. The host was responsive. We had a wasp nest outside of our front door and I texted him to let him know before we left for the day. When we returned in the evening the wasp issue was resolved. We would stay here again.

Almost felt more at home here than at my place . Jim was responsive and accommodating and made our stay super easy. Stayed here for almost 2 weeks and couldn't have been more comfortable. Large kitchen and living areas made our holiday stay comfy and cozy. And the view was spectacular, the quiet hills over Watkins with clear skies.

A beautiful vrbo. Close to the lakes and wineries! The view was incredible.

We visited to enjoy the Deck the Halls winery tour around Seneca Lake, which was wonderful. We brought our three dogs along, who all enjoyed playing in the snow and the space of the home. We loved the sun room and the view out those windows. A great house for a peaceful, family-friendly stay.

we loved our quaint weekend in Watkins Glenn! The unit was so lovely and the host was very responsive to any and all questions we might have had. The view from the house is beautiful and you get to enjoy it from the two different porches! We will stay here again on our next visit for sure

wonderful view and area, so close to all activities and the towns. Host was very prompt in communicating. We were in a very comfortable home!

The view was beautiful. We arrived in the dark and we were not able to get a hold of the owner to verify we were at the correct home(we had been told it would be unlocked and lights on. It was unlocked but no lights and we didn't want to be walking into the wrong home). We weren't there long, the view was amazing but the beds were VERY VERY uncomfortable, which was disappointing as we had been traveling all day long. The shower was like none other we had ever seen. Directions on how to get the water to come out of the shower would have been helpful. We did get to chat the next morning with the owner and he apologized for the lack of communication. He was very nice. Our stay was short and uncomforatable.

The view was stunning.

As described, great communication and will definitely visit again.
