This rental was perfect for our trip to NY. We were in walking distance to the Corning Museum of Glass and restaurants. It was a short drive to Watkins Glen where we had a great hike on the trails. Easy check in/out. Responsive host. Overall a good time.
Couldn't be happier with our stay in Corning. This charming place truly delivered on everything as advertised, and provided us with a cozy home away from home vibe. We especially enjoyed being able to spend time in the evenings relaxing in the she-shed or by the firepit in the backyard; And the proximity to the Museums and Market Street's stores and restaurants was ideal. to the Museums and Market Street.
The apartment was very clean, just as listed. It was the perfect quiet place for me to get some writing done. Thank you for hosting! I will book again.
I brought my best friend to Corning to visit the glass museum. This house was a short five minute walk from the museum. We felt safe in the neighborhood and all of Corning. Having an off street parking spot was very beneficial with the alternating side parking on the street. This quaint older home was very comfortable for two adults. Our host provided anything we would need in the kitchen and laundry. Bedding was comfortable and crisp white. Our host was responsive to the one issue we encountered. Don took excellent care of us during our stay with great communication!
Clean, quiet and close to everything. Provided all that we needed. Very comfortable beds! Nice touches throughout. Easy to communicate with owner. Perfect for our needs.
The property is as described. Roomy for 2 of us. Everything is clean. It is an older home with character but is updated and modernly furnished. The TV room in the basement is great for stretching out. Don was very responsive to the one concern we had during our stay and resolved it immediately.

When renting the property you get the first floor and basement of an older home that was restored in 2020. It was very quiet and comfortable! Cute decorations and easy check in. We would not change a thing!
The apartment is even nicer than the pictures. We especially enjoyed the shower/large bathroom and TV room. It’s in a great location, we walked to the museum and downtown.

The property was a very short walk to the Corning museum. From there you could take a shuttle to the historic section/Market Street. It was a short drive to Watkins Glen. The property itself was clean and bright. The bed was comfortable and the linens/ towels were in great condition. We were able to enjoy the backyard and the off street parking was an added perk. The host was responsive and checked in a few times during our 3 night stay to ensure we had everything we needed. I would highly recommend this property and would stay here again.
Very clean and easy short walk to glass museum.
Air conditioning kept the place cool and nice movie theater room in basement.
Would definitely stay here again.
We were a group of 4 people. All of us felt comfortable and loved the cleanliness of the unit. The size is just enough for 4 people. The kitchen is adequately furnished and Don had stocked it up with basic supplies. The bathroom was clean. Overall, we had a pleasant experience. The host was great and stayed in touch throughout.
We came to see the Museums, and LOVED how close we were to everything. The house is beautiful, and the kids loved the built in bunkbed in one of the bedrooms. It was super easy to check in and the owner is super responsive with any questions you might have.
Cannot say enough good things about this charming apartment! Very comfortable for our family of 4. Comfy beds, comfy living room. Well-equipped kitchen. Squeaky clean bathroom. Best of all, though, it is a quick walk to the Corning Museum of Glass, where we spent an amazing day. And if it hadn’t been raining for our entire vacation, we would have loved to walk over the pedestrian bridge to town for dinner / shopping. We visited in December (plus, that never ending rain!), so did not take advantage of the lovely porch or backyard, but can see how that would be great fun.
Without a doubt the quietest setting we have ever rented in! We never heard a peep from any neighbors. Don's beds and linens are so comfy. Convenient drive to downtown and Watkins Glen. Best Burgers EVER at Mooney's. We cannot wait to return!
Our host was 5 stars. Felt very safe and secure. Comfy beds and crisp linens.
Loved the quirky-ness of the older home. I grew up in one and it felt very homey. But the quirky raised tub that hat to be stepped out of was scary. A bar was installed but the step down was still awkward.
This beautiful 2-bedroom apartment on the first floor of a cute victorian house was perfect for my husband and my sister and brother in law's stay. Plenty of sitting area in the living room to play cards, fully stocked kitchen and soft fluffy towels. Perfectly located a short walk from the Corning Glass Musuem. Highly recommend.
Living area was comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed. Property was very clean. Very convenient to be able to walk over the pedestrian bridge to restaurants on Market Street.
The apartment was clean, well-equipped and perfectly located for getting to the Corning Museum and Studio. Don is a very responsive host, and is quick to return messages.
This was my second time at 88 Gorton, and I hope to be back next year.
