Visit to HWS

My son was visiting HWS. This property is right next to campus. It is exactly as advertised. Communication was easy and the property was very clean ( my favorite ). There was some college kid noise on Saturday night but that added to the flavor of a college visit. Would stay again.

Great place

Great stay, the place is great and comfortable, Karen is a good communicative house. Nice location, walkable. You'll get some student noise on party nights, but nothing that's a big deal.

Close to college!

We came to Geneva to attend an open house at HWS. The house was right across the street from the school and close to a variety of restaurants and vineyards. Communcation was great and check in/out was easy.

Geneva

The house is in a great location, close to the Waterfront, and restaurants. We are a 65+ group and we had to take it slow on the stairs, would have appreciated a handrail on the right side on the upper stairs. We loved the character of the old house and a nice neighborhood. We will keep in mind for our next Finger Lakes Vacation.

Clean and cozy with great access to geneva downtown area.

We were staying a couple of days to attend classes at the Cornell Agritech center. The location was perfect and we were able to walk to classes and all the great restaurants downtown.

Finger lake region

We visited several wineries, had a great time, the place was convenient to shopping, stores, etc. we are an elderly couple, so the stairs were a challenge, but we loved the house!

Great home base for a wedding weekend

We had our wedding in Geneva and this was our home base! It had everything we needed with a spacious living room area where we got ready and comfy beds. Very quick walk to the local coffee shop and convenient to drive to the nearby wineries. Highly recommend!

Cutest house ever! Just what we were looking for.

A small older home that was perfect for my husband and I. Our host Karen had all the basic supplies needed from coffee to spices to 4 trays of ice for cocktails! Mattresses were very comfortable. Bathroom quite small but shower strong and hot. Geneva is a beautiful city on the lake with lots of great restaurants close by. Will definitely return.

Eclipse Get Away

Stayed in Geneva for the solar eclipse. The clouds did not cooperate but we enjoyed the close distance to town and the grocery store. Visiting the local coffee shop was a pleasure. Spending the weekend reminded me of my college days. The owner treated us great! We hope to come back!

Great long weekend

We spent 3 nights in Geneva. This home was in a great location. It was a short walk into town and to the lake. The neighborhood was quiet and safe. The home was very clean and spacious. Thank you for being pet friendly. This was our first vacation where we brought our dog. He could go to all the wineries and we had a great time. Geneva is centrally located to go to attractions on both sides of the lake. I would recommend this home to anyone visiting the Finger Lakes.

Watkins Glen/ Geneva

Good location! We enjoyed our time in the FLX. The house met our needs! Only 1 bathroom, which we knew it would be, but it made our family of six to be thankful that we have more than 1 at home. We enjoyed the lake, the college, nearby grocey, coffee shop, and most of all the drive to Watkins Glen and hiking the state park!

Perfect HWS Rental in Geneva NY

Rented the house for college graduation stay of 3 nights. Priced way better than a hotel and got to experience college aged neighbors lives. Walked easily to graduation but house has a parking spot off street. Owner was so kind to let us do a last minute late check out. Clean, old village style house yet modern inside. Walked to downtown so I could have a few drinks. Loved it!!!
