The property lived up to the pictures posted with the listing. Only property issue was the deep grass, making us pass on the fire pit given the rainy weather. The hosts were invisible. I did not receive any pre-arrival information (like check in information) & had to make multiple calls to gain access to the property. Same for check out - a couple of lines in the property information binder. I attempted to ask questions pre-arrival & did not receive any response. The property was removed from vrbo so I couldn’t dbl check amenities.

We don’t believe that the cleaning crew completed the laundry sheets and towels were not ready. One of our folks ended up doing four loads of laundry to get the place ready. Mainly sheets and towels

The home is stunning. The location was perfect. The view was picturesque. The vineyard next door has a sound cannon on the property line (to scare birds from the grapes) and it goes off every 2-3 minutes starting at 6:30am until 7:30pm (I timed it). I don't know if this is all year, but this definitely ruined our moms weekend away where we were all looking forward to sleeping in and napping and resting since this was a getaway from our kids. I was disappointed not to see this on the listing. I would stay here again if I knew when the cannons run (no idea if it's all year or just grape picking season).

I had my bachelorette party in the Finger lakes and needed a place to accommodate a large group. This house was perfect! Great location and plenty of space. My only complaint/negative review would be that we did have an issue with the water not working when we got to the property. That said, the host came and got the water running within an hour or so of our arrival and we didn’t have any further issues the rest of the weekend!

The layout worked well for our group- large kitchen and porch were a bonus. Great access to many vineyards. Hosts were easy to work with. Definitely recommend. Appreciate that they are transparent about the busy road in front. It does get loud.

Fantastic stay. Very roomy with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The views were great. Centrally located with vineyards, breweries, and restaurants. Close to Watkins Glen.

We had a wonderful stay after a few hicups. The local area was without power shortly after we arrived. This was not a problem since we had planned to go out for dinner. When we returned power was restored but we did not realize that it knocked out the well pump. When we woke up the next morning we had no water. The owners we quick to respond and come and reset the pump and water was restored. The house had everything we needed for six adults. The view was outstanding and the fire pit and wood was a wonderful bonus. Would stay at this location again.

This is a very nice place in a convenient location. Jason is a great host and was very responsive. We contacted him with an issue and he immediately sent a maintenance person to take care of the problem. Definitely would recommend.

Our family attended Cornell's graduation and stayed at this property. There were 8 adults, and it was perfect for us all. Cozy, but plenty of room to spread out for conversations, games, drinks, etc. Beautiful view of Seneca Lake. Wineries all around, some within walking distance. We enjoyed the fire pit out back at night. I would book again!

We loved this location and enjoyed the house tremendously

Was a great location - enjoyed all the wineries nearby and hiked in Watkins Glen State Park. Communication and response time could be faster but our issues were eventually resolved.

This is our second stay as a family of siblings at this home. It is very comfortable and had a homey feeling. The house was well equipped for our stay. Everyone had a wonderful time. We will book again. Thanks

We spent a great week at this highly desirable home. The location is great. The lake view is actually better than the pictures show. The house was large, clean, comfortable, and well equipped for everything we wanted to do. The front porch was perfect for morning coffee! We would gladly stay here again.

This was the perfect location with wineries in walking distance and a gorgeous view of the lake!

This was the perfect spot for our couple's getaway! There are so many cozy spots to sit for coffee in the morning and plan for the day, a beautiful well-equipped new kitchen to make a meal, wonderful porch for afternoon wine and apps. The location is perfect with wineries so close, and a short 10 minute drive to Watkins Glenn, where we took an evening dinner/blues cruise to see the sunset. We also did the Watkins Glen Falls hike which is just a short drive away and a must-do! The beds were comfy, the cabinets seemed all new with pots, pans, glasses, cofffee and coffee maker, spices, etc, all you need. We enjoyed a few wonderful fires at night (wood was provided which was great!), so quiet and peaceful. I highly recommend for a friends or family getaway, especially if you enjoy wine!!! Although this is on a main road, there is very little traffic. Communication was also great and arrival directions simple. We hope to be back!!

The good… Beautiful views Roomy. Well laid out. Nicely decorated with plenty of seating areas and lovely artwork. 4 of the 5 bedroom were fairly large. The 5th had a futon and a chair but good for 1 person to stay comfortably. Two would be tight. Lots of extra pillows and throw blankets, though the upstairs linen closet was a bit of a mess. Nice master bath with updated double vanities and shower. New gas grill, though it hadn’t been cleaned from the previous renters and took quite a while to scrape off. Fire pit - with firewood supplied Nice washer/dryer and some detergent Plenty of glasses Provided plenty of toilet paper & a roll of paper towels Front sun porch was really nice with great view … sadly we couldn’t really take advantage of it with the heat wave. Air conditioning worked well for the most part. There was a leaking prob in twin bedroom which wasn’t rectified while we were there and we were using all bedrooms so no alternative. The not so good…. Flies - prob killed 10-15 the first day ( I get people moving in and out but it did seem excessive). Dishwasher was broken during our entire stay so we were never able to use for our party of 10 so that was a chore I hadn’t counted on - informed owner right away and he said he’d prob need to look for a “new” one at Lowe’s so I’m not sure if it was already a known issue. Need a few more chairs to accommodate 10 in the kitchen together Not enough utensils (5 butter knives, 10large forks, 6 small forks, 7 small spoons, 12 large spoons ) Need more of the larger coffee cups (had 4) and the others were way to small for our coffee drinkers. No cutting board Not a single dish towel which I informed the owner about right away especially since we had to do all dishes by hand…but since no response -I bought one at Walmart and left it for the next renters Crumbs in some bottom cupboards (toaster) and beneath stove Microwave dirty inside No garbage bags provided (welcome sheet said there would be some under the sink) Definitely need more washcloths (there were only 2) and more bath towels. There were 8 of the soft bath towels plus 3 scratchier white towels (found in the laundry room) for our party of 10. Instructions said Garbage was supposed to go in the bins in the garage but couldn’t fully access the garage Lighting above dining area and throughout house in general was pretty dim Need a shower caddy in upstairs bath for toiletries.

The grass was up to our knees and we were there 3 days until someone came and mowed the front (back was never mowed around the fire pit). We didn’t have any water when we got there and the locks were not set for us, both of which were resolved quickly. The house was not clean. There was bird poop and dead flies in the enclosed porch. Cob webs in the corners of the rooms, and a piece of glass was found in one of the beds. The house itself is big and at a great location but it needs a deep cleaning. The only reason I gave it a 3 instead of lower was that the owners son tried very hard to accommodate us.

Location was great. House was well kept and large enough for 10 comfortably. The grill didn't work and we weren't aware there was a bird cannon next to us. Not a great first impression with that bang. Overall it had everything we needed for cooking and entertainment.

The photos do not justify the size of this home, as it is much larger than presented. Home was clean and bright with fantastic lake views. Heads up you might hear the well pump which was loud and alarming one late evening. I was clueless what it was until I asked a relative to help determine source of the noise. I was disappointed the owner responded 14 hours later, otherwise communication was very efficient and helpful with the owner. Water pressure varied in the upstairs bathroom shower and vanity faucet so I would suggest using the downstairs shower for better pressure. The area is beautiful.

Weekend get away to a gorgeous area. Very convenient to wineries, town of Watkins Glen. Lots of room in house for gathering and sleeping. Have already recommended to friends!

Thoroughly enjoyed the stay. Been to many vacation rentals but this was beyond a doubt the most well appointed. Every piece of furniture was comfortable and there was space for all. The mattresses were phenomenal. I wanted to move in just for the night’s sleep. There was a large kitchen and eat in table that accommodated our family meals. The view and the fire ring were a plus for all ages. There were enough decorative items to make it feel homey, but no clutter so you could find you own items. Because we came from many directions we had many vehicles, but there was plenty of space. We had berthed a boat, but had to pull it out for the last night and the owner gave us good info on where to park it so it didn’t cause a bottleneck. Just a caution if you have dogs. The vineyards nearby use air canons to scare wildlife. On the first day when unloading our dog almost took off. All in all a pleasant and comfortable stay. Definitely 5 stars.

The house was very nice. View of Senaca lake was amazing. Jason was very nice. Another successful trip to NY. Everyone loved Lawson Place with views and close proximity to wineries. Thank you Jason

Lawson's Place was wonderful. The house was clean, comfortable & had a great location. We could walk to 2 incredible wineries. I highly recommend this vacation rental!

we were literally seeking shelter from the hurricane damage and came upon this listing. An easy commute from northern Jersey. The house is exactly as pictured. Spotless. All linens, towles, and kitchenware were good quality. Plenty of condiments and cleaning supplies. Plenty of room for 4 adults and 2 dogs - who enjoyed the large yard. Directly across from Lake Seneca. 10 minutes outside Watkins Glen. Wineries galore. Great Amish Kuntry Market about 15 minutes away had everything you could need and all locally fresh. We really enjoyed ourselves!

The photos do not give this location justice. Plenty of space for my extended family of 10 and my furry friend. View from the front porch each morning was amazing.

This house was amazing! We came up for the fall foliage and winery experience. This house was the perfect location. It was so clean and updated, yet had the charm of an old home. The spaciousness allowed us to comfortably accommodate 9 people. It had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. There were many memories made this weekend! Thank you!

More character than the pictures show. Very clean, functional and relaxing.

Fantastic

Our son was getting married at Climbing Bines, and we wanted a centrally located home to gather and relax prior to the wedding as we were all out of town guests. We were delighted with the size and space of this home, affording plenty of private bedroom options as well as open spaces for playing cards and sharing meals. Plenty of cozy areas for quiet conversation away from the group as well. Excellent wine tasting options nearby as well as easy drive to Watkins Glen for a family hike. Short drive to Penn Yan for groceries and necessities.

The house was in wonderful condition. We had 8 of us stay comfortably. The location was excellent in regards to touring around the lake

Everything was very clean and comfortable. Very nice property and location. The only issues were that the heat was not on when we got there and it took hours to warm up. It was snowing out so it was cold. Our group from georgia and Maryland were absolutely chilled. The fireplace was not set up to work for the season so there was no relief there either. Other than that our group was comfortable. The individual heaters in each room were very welcomed as us northerners liked the bedrooms a little cooler than the southerners.

I only heard excellent things from the house.
