Explore the Finger Lakes and make this renovated schoolhouse with an outdoor igloo as your basecamp. Nestled in the countryside, you'll find absolutely stunning views with surroundings that are peaceful and quiet. A perfect escape for couples and friends that is dog-friendly too, you're within minutes of the Seneca Lake Wine Trail, the gorgeous Watkins Glen State Park, and the renowned WG International Racetrack. Want to simply relax at the FLX Schoolhouse? It's the perfect for that too!
While we do not live on or near the property, we will be available via phone and text during your stay. We also have a property manager that lives locally who can assist at any time.
â€ïž Why we love it here? The FLX Schoolhouse give you the perfect mix of a peaceful stay with the most stunning views (you'll love the sunsets off the deck and stargazing at night from the outdoor igloo) while being in the countryside yet not too far from everything.
Best of all, upon booking, we will provide you with an interactive (great for accessing via your cell phone) guidebook that lists out everything you need to know about the home and the region as well as our TOP 10 places to eat, drink, play and explore! We lived here and vacation here too! We give you all of the local tips and our past guests have loved it!
