Perfect stay for a large group

Wonderful Family Reunion

The house was perfect for our family reunion - group of 12. Charming, clean, updated historic home with everything we could have possibly needed. Wonderful outdoor spaces for relaxing, grilling, eating, and roasting marshmallows around the campfire. Communication with Nicole was excellent. Great location 10 minutes from activities and shops in Watkins Glen.

Family gathering in the beautiful Finger Lakes

A charming and comfortable property located right in the middle of lake Seneca. The house is only 10 minutes from Watkins Glenn but feels like you’re completely surrounded by nature. If you are a wine lover then you won’t be disappointed with the location of the property. There are more vineyards, breweries and distilleries than one can visit in one week. For the kids there is a beach, park and play ground just a 5 minutes drive away. Our family of 12 was well accommodated and there was room for all. We especially enjoyed having dinner outdoors by the barn then followed by a fire pit under the stars. We will definitely be back!!!

Fantastic place to stay

We had 15 people come to the Farmhouse for a family reunion. The kids enjoyed exploring the yard, we all had more than enough room to spread out. We had cookouts and made s’mores and even saw baby foxes playing in the side yard. The house is beautiful inside and out. The kitchen has everything you need. The house is situated on a street that had at least 8 wineries, 2 breweries and 1 distillery. Everyone had a great time!

Family Gathering

My two siblings, their spouses and 4 children, our parents, and my husband and I thoroughly enjoyed this beautifully decorated and spacious home. Breakfasts at the big kitchen table, cookouts on the back patio, lawn games in the back yard, and kids' after-dinner theatrical performances with the front porch as a candlelit stage made for a rare and memorable whole-family gathering. The beds were amazing, everyone was very comfortable and able to get their own space when desired. And I loved the artistic touches. To bicycle, we put the bikes on the car and found some desolate country farm roads not far away. To swim in the lake, we headed to a few different parks. The NY State Parks free parking card was greatly appreciated, and we saw every waterfall in the area! We had a fun daytrip to Ithaca (for lunch at Moosewood and used book and record shopping), especially enjoyed the gorgeous Forge and Damiani wineries, the Hideaway, as well as Two Goats for beer. The views from all of these spots are absolutely breathtaking. Thank you Nicole & Jonathan!

Gathering Hill the Perfect Place to Gather

The pictures don’t disappoint. This is a large beautiful antique home. Just bring your suitcase. All the amenities are here and then some. We stayed the whole month of August. The upstairs bedrooms are air conditioned. When the weather turned unseasonably hot, it took one text message and the owner was there with 2 air conditioners for the first floor. The whole house was instantly cool. We enjoyed this home inside and out, celebrated 2 birthdays, enjoyed s’mores around the fire pit, used the grill, played games in the grass. The area offers so much for all ages and we took advantage of it all. Nicole and Jonathan are the perfect hosts.

Perfect house for relaxing by the lake

Beautiful and cozy farmhouse, just as pictured. Walking distance to a few wineries and breweries which was very convenient. Gorgeous views of the lake! Plenty of seating for our party of 12 indoor and out. Mattresses were extremely comfortable, and furniture was well kept, and everything was in working order. The house has it all from a fully stocked kitchen to condiments, oils, etc. which were available for our use, plenty of extra pillows, blankets and towels, and bathrooms fully stocked with shampoo, conditioner and body wash. We loved the fire pit, outdoor dining area, front porch, small porch dining area, and the well kept lawn and gardens where we did morning yoga. Our only minor complaint was some little things and dust in some areas throughout the house and under beds when we arrived, so we ended up picking up a bit and cleaning the inside of a few kitchen drawers. Otherwise we had a perfect stay and would definitely stay again!

As beautiful as advertised! Plenty of room for friends and family. An excellent vacation spot; especially, for those looking to get out but keep it, "COVID-friendly." Close proximity to vineyards and lake access is a bonus. Don't forget to walk around downtown Watkins Glen. Quaint little down with plenty of shops and restaurants to check out. Also, local vendors for renting kayaks, paddle boards , and motorboats!

We were two families spending four days together. This property was perfect for us! The house was very well maintained, 5 bedrooms were well appointed, and a well stocked kitchen. It is very close to the city of Watkins Glen - plenty of restaurants, grocery stores, parks and water activity. More than a dozen Vineyards within a short driving distance to chose from.

What a beautiful place!

We stayed for Memorial Day weekend to celebrate our son's college graduation. Our family couldn't stop raving about how lovely the property is. We had 12 adults and everyone had a comfortable bed, fluffy towels with antique furniture and art in every room. The large eat-in kitchen, dining room and large living room comfortably housed a graduation party. We enjoyed using the outdoor firepit and admiring the lovely spring garden complete with serenading spring peepers. The farmhouse is within walking distance to 2 wineries, another plus! as well as 10 minutes to Watkins Glen. I would highly recommend this property. Lisa, Needham, MA
