“Couldn’t be more happier about our stay. My partner and our dog stayed in the Lake View Cabin and were absolutely blown away. The view is incredible, we could see a waterfall across the lake! The cabin was very spacious and clean, also equipped with everything we could possibly need during our stay. We were so happy to have found a dog friendly place, and the owners dog Rocky (I think that’s the name) was very sweet whenever we had the chance to see him around the property. The check-in process was easy and the lady who helped us check-in was very friendly. We can’t WAIT to come back, thank you for making our trip so special.”

“Awesome little Brewery in the finger lakes region. Best French fries In THE WORLD!! Amazing bartender. We enjoyed bingo and the fantastic Upstate IPA! Made suggestion for hook in bathroom for coat/pocketbook !!”

“My husband and I both a a turkey melt and soup. I had the sweet potato and ham soup and he had the chicken tortellini. They were excellent. You could tell the soup was homemade. The place is clean and the staff was friendly and attentive. Great place for families.”

“Love this place great food and decent prices for the quantity of what your gettingVegetarian options: They have lots of veggie itemsDietary restrictions: Healthy optionsParking: Not alot of parking availableKid-friendliness: Good atmosphere for kidsWheelchair accessibility: No stairs easy to get inside”

“Sandwich and soup were pretty decent. Certainly, it has an old-school feel to it. It appears a little cold though. The indoor lighting had several burned out fluorescent lights that gave me a murky feeling. I also wasn't expecting all the drink choices to come in a can or bottle.”

“Got three dozen wingsPlainMango habaneroAnd sweet and sourI was missing a plain wing but aside from that they were goodShe gave me some of the house made blue cheese. I don't like blue cheese normally but it was really good too. Out of the flavors I got, sweet n sour def was the best”

“Highlights: service, wine, local ingredientsLowlights: taste and cookMy partner and I have been trying to go to Graft for a long time. We drove 45 minutes two separate times, after checking their website and Instagram just to find out they were closed on days they were listed as open.We gave up for about a year, and finally was able to make it in last night.The restaurant is small with only three tables and bar space. It is cozy and cute. They have an upstairs but we did not see it.We love that all their ingredients are farm-to-table and my partner who had been several years prior was excited to take me. The first thing he mentioned when we walked in is that the menu seemed to be "whitewashed" which we found to be disappointing. In his past experience, he loved that the chef's Dominican culture was really represented in the food. Now, you would not be able to recognize it from any other American menu.We ordered a wine and started continued to enjoy the company we were with. The waitress was funny and attentive, with a perfect amount of awareness of when we needed her, but not consistently interrupting conversation.Unfortunately when we got our food we were a bit disappointed. The scallop appetizer was tasty but over cooked. We also got oysters, which were okay but I think could be more fresh. While not near the ocean, I have had oysters in this area that I enjoy much more.The bread was amazing and is from my favorite bakery in the region, Wide Awake.For food, we ordered the Arctic Char, Tuna special and the dry aged steak. The arctic char was dry, the tuna dish was very one note and SUPER salty, but the worst thing was the steak.It was ordered medium rare and was WAY over cooked. It was very dry and hard to chew through. All the seasonings on everything seemed to lack depth.Lastly, we ordered all of the desserts and none of them were that good. Rice pudding was not the right consistency and very sweet, the cheesecake was sour and the other chocolate tasty was just okay.Overall we had a great time, but were pretty let down by the food, especially for the cost.”

“Remarkably good food. Solid pasta and salad options. The grand prix salad is weird but somehow it works. Possibly the best canoli I've ever had. Friendly staff and fast service. Highly recommend if you're in the area.”

“If you blink you will miss it!!! Cutest little diner located on the side of another building on the main road in Watkins Glen that serves mostly hot dogs and burgers. Very friendly older gentleman will greet you with a smile. Check it out when in town!!”

“We had a wonderful meal suggested by our waiter. The comfort of sitting right next to the fireplace while enjoying a bottle of wine was undescribable. I will return!”

“Stopped here for a quick lunch as we passed through Watkins Glen on a road trip. The food was delicious! We got a cheesesteak, two cheeseburger subs, and the Rachael sandwich. Everything was fresh and made to order. My kids really enjoy the subs! The fries were also really good! Definitely recommend for a delicious deli style lunch!!”

“I love Arby's if you go to the right one. Most of the have happy hour from 2pm to 5pm that gives you soooo many choices for $1!! But make sure you check first the one in Whitney Point NY doesn't have happy hour anymore.Kid-friendliness: The kids love going here and the toys for their meals are interactive. They arnt just toys you usually have to build them which I think is awesome.”

“Delicious wood fired pizza made to order; by hand! We were hungry after after hiking the Watkins Glen State Park so we walked down to the Colonial Inn for their outside pizza! Ordered the Margharita pizza and was not disappointed! Waited about 20 minutes since there was 3 pizzas in front of ours - but totally worth the wait. We took it to go and ate every piece. $17 for the whole pie and it was cut into 4 pieces. It was just the two of us so it was the perfect size and amount.We will be returning tomorrow for the ice cream portion!”
