    Watkins glen state Park, Havana glen Park both have amazing scenery and waterfalls. The state park is definitely a two hour plus hike all around and is worth every step. Havana Glen is a very short walk can be done in 30 mins however you are walking right alongside a gorgeous multi level waterfall. The town itself is gorgeous and clean very quaint and boutique like. The harbor front was absolutely stunning with endless views of Seneca Lake and a gorgeous boardwalk to take in all the views. Highly recommend Lakewood Vineyards when driving along the wine trail. Everything is so close together from the parks to the wineries. Watkins Glen is truly a magical place . Recommend a minimum of two days to explore the main attractions at a leisurely pace

    Very nice, clean town. Felt very safe walking at night.

    Very nice, clean town. Felt very safe walking at night. Trails at the Glen were very nice walking, very scenic. Make sure to inquire about trail closures though. Gorge trail closes early November but South rim was closed for maintenance this time.

    The Gorge trail is something you need to see.

    The Gorge trail is something you need to see. You can take all the pictures you want, but it doesn’t portray just how mesmerizing it is. We went early in the morning and hardly anyone was there and we were able to take our time and enjoy it, but by the time we headed back up the gorge, it was crowded. If you are staying in town, and looking for a good restaurant, Jerlandos Italian restaurant is a great option. Very reasonable prices and the best garlic bread. If you like the old motor courts, then you’ll like Gorgeous View Motel. Very basic room, but clean and has a microwave, fridge and coffee pot in the room. Driveway up to the room is a little sketchy, but you have a nice view of the lake from your porch. After you visit Watkins Glen, a few miles down the road in Montour Falls is a waterfall right in town. It’s worth making a detour to see it

    There are so many wineries! One could spend days just visiting wineries. The town is quaint. Lots of restaurants to choose from. My only disappointment was that i didn't have time to see the falls.

    There is a huge variety of experiences available in Watkins Glen, from hiking, boating and swimming, to shopping and dining. Hiking the state park is an awe-inspiring experience, and dozens of wineries nearby offer tours and tastings.

    Absolutely spectacular. Biucket list place to visit.

    Absolutely spectacular. Biucket list place to visit. We spent all afternoon hiking in the Glen. The waterfalls and trails are beautiful. Get the shuttle pass. Start at the north lot and hike down then use the shuttle to go back up and do the rim trails. Use the shuttle to go back up again. The ice cream at the north lot is excellent. Wear anti slip hiking boots. everything is wet. Try to go on a non race weekend. It was a little crowded and of course not everyone is polite. People can get crazy with their selfie sticks. Defintely wirth a trip. Great little town and jump off point to do the wine trail around Seneca lake.

    The receptionist was friendly, efficient, and accommodating. She gave us excellent advice about visiting the state park and how best to walk the Gorge Trail, as well as the location of local eateries. Our room was clean and comfortable, just right for our stay. We really appreciated the eco-friendly soap and shampoo dispensers in the bathroom, too. The location of the motel was perfect—just a short walk from Watkins Glen State Park.

    Breakfast was perfect - Dining with the other guests made it really special, talking about our days ahead, and getting to know people from all around the States, as well as the hosts. Watkins Glen, and Lake Seneca - are excellent places - Wineries, Breweries, boat ride, as well as hiking on the trails kept us busy during our stay. Really enjoyable stay

    The staff are very nice and accommodating! Pets are welcome! The room itself is clean and smells good. The motel has a pool, a cute gazebo and rocking chairs! They had breakfast (coffee, muffins, danish, donettes). The view from our room was nice. We can see the Seneca Lake. Location is nice, not too crowded and 5min drive to Watkins Glen downtown.

    We went to Curleys for breakfast, which came recommended, and it was great. It was located right up the street and had great food and service. The location of the Colonial Inn and Creamery was close to restaurants, shopping, Watkins Glen State Park and the lake. The bed and bedding in our room was like sleeping on a cloud, very comfortable!

    The hotel is located on Seneca Lake with prime access to all the shops and restaurants in Watkins Glen. The state park is within walking distance. We stayed in the Commodore Suite and loved the balcony, spa tub and gorgeous view. The room service was fantastic. Don’t miss the Harbor Burger. Great stay. Great staff. Worth every cent.

    Location was OK. You could walk to downtown in a pinch but the street in front of the hotel is literally the main street in town and traffic is bad. Many transport trucks as it's the only easy way for them to get through the town and many of them do not respect the non-use of compression brakes meaning it is very noisy at times.

    The location in Montour Falls is very convenient for a visit to Watkins Glen State Park, roughly 2 miles north. Across the street from the motel is an entrance to a rail trail hiking/biking path that leads right into the city of Watkins Glen.
