We made a last minute reservation for the upcoming weekend and chose this apartment based on the description and reviews. I assure you, every word of it is true! The apartment is newly renovated, everything is clean and new, including the furniture, and well stocked with linens and paper products. I only had one question prior to arrival and the property owner answered immediately. The location is so convenient, just minutes to Seneca Lake and Watkins Glen State Park. I would also add that it's super quiet at night, even though it's on a main road. So, if that's a concern, don't let it be...we didn't hear a thing from the road at night. We didn't bother using the fire pit because we were so tired from the hikes, but it's there in a beautiful, quiet backyard and I got to see the deer passing through on their trail in the morning while sitting on the patio. Also, the HVAC system worked perfectly, with each bedroom having it's own control, as well as the main living space. Another reviewer mentioned something about the taste of the water....it's municipal water, and they also have a filtered tap through the refrigerator, which I have at home, so it tasted exactly as I expected it too, but just noteworthy in case you're used to well water. I would stay here again, without hesitation, and I recommend you do too!
