Gorgeous View Motel

Super cheap! And it is aptly named, the view is truly gorgeous. Especially when the fog gets going over the water. Very clean, mini fridge in the room, two beds. They have a little patio in front of each room, so that was nice to hang out with my family! Very close to all the wineries and breweries so it’s convenient for that as well! Would highly recommend. The owner here is super nice and came to introduce herself. Very impressed.
X’s and O’s!

Best place to stay at walkins glen. Positively spotless, and wonderfully run. The room has coffee, mini fridge, free snacks, microwave. What more could anyone want or need. The rooms all overlook the lake, w outdoor seating on the porch. Patio area w grill, table, etc. all clean. I won’t stay anywhere else. 10 min to track. Great parking w trailer. Love it. 1 min from town center

My wife and I stayed here for a mid-​week getaway for Watkins Glen hiking + wine tasting around Seneca Lake. We pulled in rather late (around 11:00), only to be greeted by the owner. She showed us to our room and quickly gave us a nickel tour of the area.
The room was immaculate. Probably the cleanest room I’ve been in over the past year. The motel itself is nothing fancy. With just 8 rooms, it isn’t going to be. But, it is in a nice location (about a mile north of Watkins Glen) and is in a prime location for all of the area attractions. If you just need a «homebase» for your activities, this fits the bill quite nicely. Nice owners and very clean, comfy rooms. The only reason I docked the Gorgeous View 1 star is because there isn’t quite enough sound-​proofing between rooms, and we could hear our somewhat noisy neighbors a bit more than we’d have liked.
The view is in fact «Gorgeous» out the front porch, but who has time to sit and look with so many things to do in the area?
