Great weekend in Watkins Glen
We really enjoyed our stay at this property. Our group was seven adults, and the layout of the house was perfect for our group. Originally, our group was supposed to be bigger, but the house would have easily accomodated everyone. It's rare to find someplace with 2 king size beds! The house was clean and everything was as expected. Located in downtown Watkins Glen, it is in walking distance of everything downtown which was one of the main reasons we chose it. It's location gives you easy access to the wineries on Keuka, Seneca, and Cayuga Lakes. We go to the Finger Lakes a couple of times a year and now that our group has grown, we will definitely visit here again!

Four Days in Watkins Glen
The apartment was very clean and spacious with two bedrooms upstairs. The location was convenient to beautiful Watkins Glen Stare Park and an easy walk to restaurants. Communication with the owner was easy, and we liked that breakfast items were left for us.

Watkins Glen Gettaway
The house was perfect for us!! Clean & comfortable. Perfect location which was our main reason for staying here. It's a 3 minute's walk to the State Park gorge and close to Main Street shops and eateries 5-10 minute walk . Travis the host was very diligent in responding to all our questions. We would definitely stay again!!

Nice location
Easy access to park and commercial district. Somewhat basic accommodations but clean, tidy, and quiet. Plenty of dishes and towels. Note for anyone with dogs (we didn't bring ours): the stairway to the upper floor is hardwood without any grip, so dogs might have difficulty climbing up.

Happy
When I first saw and book this house I was under the impression that it was one rental and I would have the entire house to myself. But it is set up like a duplex sharing a front porch. And that’s the only negative thing I can say. The house was clean, well furnished, wonderfully located and it had an inviting feel. 10/10. The host provided a breakfast and snack bar with coffee, tea, bagels, yogurts and bananas. It was delightful. Very happy I will be back.

We had a wonderful stay over Thanksgiving weekend! The house had everything we needed and enough room for everyone! The two units was great for two families with pets and children. Walking distance to the lake, state park and downtown. A wonderful weekend had by all.

Perfect !
I could not be happier with the Madison Guesthouse It was extremely well equipped with everything you could possibly need..including paper products. The beds & furniture were very comfortable. All the rooms in the house were very clean. The washer & dryer worked well. We never heard our neighbors in the other unit. Yes..there are quite a few stairs but I am 74 & had no problem. It’s a very short walk to the Glen. Lots of restaurants & shops are a short walk & you can even walk to the lake.I loved that recycling is available at the house. My niece & her husband stayed with me a few days. We all agreed we loved it & could find nothing to complain about. It’s the perfect place in Watkins Glen. If I could I would give it 12 stars !

Seems Like a Diamond in the Rough
Had a girl's getaway. Location is perfect. You can walk to the park and many shops and restaurants! Big plus. Communication with owner was wonderful! The breakfast foods and coffee that were left for us was perfect! We had something to eat the morning after our arrival. The house was roomy.Seems like the owners are updating a bit at a time. It had pretty much the basics we needed. Could have been a bit cleaner. Was a bit dusty and musty smelling. Some dishes seem to be put back not so clean. But, that was probably from the previous guest. Grill worked, but could be updated, was a bit rusty. We had to put our steaks in a pan to cook. Overall a good house in a great location!

Fabulous location and comfortable home away from home.
Very nice unit in a fabulous location. Less than 3 blocks to the entry of the Glen/Gorge in one direction, and about 7 blocks to the harbor and the iconic pier house. Travis is great to work with, and provided all amenities for a very comfortable stay.

Great place!
We had a great time on our stay. The house perfectly accommodated 2 families with kids and small dogs. The house was clean, the breakfast foods were much appreciated, and the separate laundry facilities for each apartment were awesome! The house is perfectly located in town and within walking distance to restaurants, shops, and even the Watkins Glen State Park! Highly recommend!

Great Finger Lakes Vacation
We enjoyed our stay at this guest house, plenty of space, and nice food for breakfast. Accommodations met or exceeded all our expectations. The house is walking distance to the state park waterfalls, and perfect for walking the town or Watgins Glen, down to the lake Seneca. The beds were comfortable, and the AC was good. We look forward to another visit to the region.

Excellent Experience
Super close to the local park that has waterfalls and hiking up stone stairs. We went to the restaurant at the marina for drinks and a HUGE pretzel with dipping sauces. The Chinese restaurant was just across the street, as was Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream Shop. A Walmart was a short drive, as well. Inside the home the owner had some bananas, blueberries, bagels, butter and cream cheese waiting for us. There were plenty of towels and the beds were comfortable. The water pressure was good for showers and baths, and the street was fairly quiet with close parking.

Our house was only a 3 minute walk to the entrance to Watkins Glenn. The house was clean, linens and breakfast foods were supplied, and delicious. Our wine tour was only 15 minutes away. Madison House is in an excellent location for a Watkins Glenn, Seneca Lake vacation.

We enjoyed our stay at your place, it was very clean and cozy and in a great location....close to everything. The only thing I would suggest as we were wine drinkers....maybe having a few more wine glasses in the house but everything else was fabulous and we will definitely be back. Thank you for your hospitality.
