Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Schuyler County

We had a very positive experience during our stay. was as advertised and clean. no issues checking in. check out instructions seemed straight forward. the house had some charming accents, had great view of the lake, and had its own small private waterfall which was very nice.

What a beautiful place to stay! Quiet, peaceful, and the views were outstanding. The home is extremely clean, well-organized, and comfortable. Its age adds to its charm. Samantha was friendly, responsive, and helpful. Would definitely stay here again and recommend to others.

This space is absolutely incredible. Exceeded all of my expectations for comfort and tranquility. Spacious and stunningly curated. I will be booking my next stay immediately! Cannot recommend enough.

Wonderful home surrounded by a beautiful area! We felt right at home with plenty of space for all. Pool, hot tub, pickleball, and playground kept us busy when not checking out Watkins Glen. We definitely could’ve stayed longer to explore more! Highly recommend!

Great place, very clean, and nice town

What a great stay for a quick weekend getaway! Anything you could think of and some was accounted for. You can tell Christine really cares to make the experience special. Will definitely be back!

Shawna was very responsive and easy to communicate with when needed. The house was cozy and comfortable, and we felt right at home! Easily walkable to downtown Watkins Glen with plenty to do and see! We would absolutely stay here again 😊

You can't stay here, because we live here now! :P We couldn't have asked for a better stay to celebrate our 10th Wedding Anniversary, back in the place where we got engaged & honeymooned, and later lived for 5 years. Sarah and Jeremy's place was the perfect home away from home with our toddler, which is all one level and very family friendly. We appreciated having the bathtub & the darkness of the back room when the curtains were pulled made for great sleep for our little guy. The front and back yard is safe and far back from the main road. An extra bonus is the amazing art by Jeremy throughout the home. The kitchen has all essentials and starter items. The house is a short 15-minute-drive from some of our favorite places including Trumansburg (Gimme Coffee, Main St Market, Sundrees), Hector Wine Company, Grist Iron, Watkins Glen State Park, and 5 minutes from Overlook Coffee. We also enjoyed the short commute to the Ravine Trail and other Finger Lakes National Forest trailheads.

Heather was awesome, she met us personally to transfer the keys and show us how everything worked, especially the tv as my husband was hanging out there while I attended a conference. The apartment was spotless, Heather anticipated our every need and even left us a snack since she knew we had traveled a distance to get there. I already plan to stay there again for next years lace conference!

We had a fantastic stay while exploring Watkins Glen and Seneca Lake! The location was perfect—super close to all the main attractions and with easy access to highways for getting to and from home, as well as nearby towns like Corning. The space itself was cozy and just right for a couples’ getaway. It was clean, quiet, and well-stocked with essentials like toiletries, towels, and linens. Having a dishwasher and washer/dryer was a big plus, and the smart TVs were easy to use during our downtime. There’s also a Walmart just a few minutes away in case you need anything last minute. We truly enjoyed our time here and would absolutely stay again on a future visit. (My husband wants to give a special shoutout to the candy jar lol) Thank you for a great experience!!

i would definitely recommend to all my friends to stay here... perfect location to bring the family

Our stay was very wonderful,peaceful,clean.This property has beautiful views of the lake and surrounding area. This place has a beautiful view of the sunset!! You can see the beautiful stars at night and feel that you can touch them! There’s so many winery’s, brewery’s and distilleries to choose in a short distance. The owner is very responsive on any questions you have. I highly recommend renting this place! Brian and Vicki, NJ

We throughly enjoyed our time at Ron’s place. It was close to downtown, Watkins Glen State Park, several wineries and breweries. It was a short drive to Taughannock Falls State Park which in my opinion is a must see. We will definitely be back.

Doug's place was amazing and we would definitely stay here again if we ever visit the area. It was perfect for our family of four and our dog. It was so clean, very well stocked, extremely comfortable, and easily accessible to Watkins Glen and surrounding areas. We could not have been any more satisfied with the accommodations and Doug was super kind, responsive, and friendly. Thank you, Doug, for a wonderful stay! Highly recommend!

Great location. Easily walkable to restaurants, bars and shops. Parking was easy. The place was extremely clean and comfortable. Host was very responsive and friendly. Two bedrooms were on opposite sides of the condo allowing for nice privacy. Would definitely stay there again!

Jen was a great host, friendly and accommodating. Everything was as described. When we arrived there was a bottle of wine waiting for us which was a very nice gesture. I'm a tea drinker and there were many different kinds which I appreciated. My favorite spot was the dining room; a room with lots of natural light where I enjoyed breakfast with a book. The only negative thing was the tenant upstairs was very active throughout the night making it difficult to stay asleep. The location of the house is fantastic, walking distance to the lake and most restaurants. Our favorite was Seneca Harbor Station with views of the lake. Most upscale is the hotel restaurant. The Watkins Glen Park is simply magnificent! We loved the Atwater Vineyards for their spectacular views. Definitely recommend taking the Scenic Byway to the Lodi Point State Park which is amazing. All in all we had a very enjoyable time!

It is a very quiet place, with an excellent view, around with a touch of security and peace. Everything is very clean, its comfortable beds, and its spacious living room is a nice place if you don’t want to go out. We are a family of 4 where we have a lot of fun. Thank you for the attention in the chat upon our arrival.

Tobiah was a fabulous host. He answered all questions promptly and was very helpful. We had a small gathering of family, coming from far apart and the condo was wonderful! It worked beautifully for our needs. We loved the view of the lake off the balconies-- especially with a full moon reflecting on it! The condo was well-appointed, with everything we needed. It was a very comfortable setting and close to hiking, wineries, and water activities, as well as cycling along the Erie Canal. The condo's location, a short distance between the towns of Naples and Canadaigua, made it easy to run an errand or go out eat. We highly recommend Tobiah's waterfront condo!

Lovely space with beautiful view. Felt safe and peaceful. Kitchen thoughtfully equipped. Great nearby hikes. Very helpful and responsive host. Unfortunately the home owners association has forbidden access to the beach and the lake for renters and guests on weekends--you can't get thru the gate to get down there--you can only look at it from the balcony. But an excellent property besides that.

Rachel’s place was phenomenal! It was clean and cozy, and perfect for a quick escape from NYC. It was also close enough to be right in downtown Ithaca within minutes. I will definitely be back again!

This was a repeat visit and another great experience! The apartment was perfect, super convenient to our events and we again appreciated the convenience and excellent fare of the Rye and the Garage restaurants. THE place to stay in Elmira!

This Airbnb was everything I needed and more! It was so much bigger in person than it looked in the photos—beautiful, super clean, and really cozy. It made the perfect peaceful getaway. The location was ideal too—close to amazing wineries, just about 30 minutes from Watkins Glen State Park, and not far from a cute Main Street with great food and shops. Whether you’re looking to relax, explore, or do a little of both, this spot is a gem. Highly recommend!

A quiet rural setting only about 13 minutes from Cornell. A very good value for the money. I would stay again.

We were in Elmira to celebrate my mom (born and raised in Elmira) who passed on 12/21/24 and was laid to rest at Woodlawn Cemetery. Our immediate family (from Ithaca, Indiana, and Illinois) stayed in the 3 apartment suites and we were so happy to have homes away from home! The apartments were beautifully appointed, in a great location (close to everything) and having the restaurants-Rye and the Garage-right downstairs was amazing, delicious, and convenient! Thank you for a wonderful stay during a solemn but important occasion-you helped us put the fun in funeral!
