The Inn at Houghton Creek

I was in town to watch my son pitch for the Genesee Rapids. This was the closest place to stay. I will definitely stay here again! The Staff was super sweet and the place was very clean. Its a cute place. It's peaceful, warm and welcoming all in one. I loved the smell of the sheets when I went to bed!! The bed was super comfortable!! Great place to stay. I will definitely recommend to anyone going to Houghton.

The beds were comfy and the staff kept everything immaculate. The hotel even has some artist pieces on consignment which I purchased. Parking is free, a huge plus considering they are on campus. And lots of little extras. Ex. Provide boutique lotion and diffusers in the room. The toiletries provided were high quality. Towels and sheets soft like they are still new. Coffee pods available all times and breakfast nook had locally roasted beans in the single serve freshly ground to order coffee maker. Highly recommend this local.

This place has poor management!!! I called on the afternoon of July 4th, and was told they had one room left - Rm 19 on the first floor - with two queen beds. I made a reservation, verified my credit card info, and was told that the front desk would be open until 11 pm. I was visiting my relatives at Rushford Lake, and my cousin was going to split the room with me. When I got there at 10:30, the woman at the front desk said they gave my room to someone else, and that I was switched to a room on the second floor with a single king bed. I was not happy because this messed up my plans, so I left. I don't think it's cool to take a reservation over the phone and then change it without notifying the guest ahead of time. When I first called, the woman told me they had one room left (Rm 19), so it didn't make sense that they were trying to switch me to another room. In all fairness, I think if they're going to do that to someone, they should offer them a discount.

We stayed at the Inn at Houghton Creek on a short getaway to Letchworth State Park. The Innkeeper was polite and friendly. The check-in and check-out process was quick and easy. The location is well situated for the South entrances to the park. Our room was dated but clean, and the bed was comfortable. My only suggestions would be a few updates to the room and public spaces. The air conditioner in our second-floor room was old and extremely loud. The building itself does not benefit from a central air conditioning system. The window screens had some holes in them, and the sashes were difficult to open. The door lock on the exterior door was sticky and wouldn't release my key. It took a little force on my husband's part to get it out. The lighting in the back stairwell was dim and made seeing the steps a bit difficult in the evening. The bedside lamp needed replacing or at least re-bolting to the wall. The bathroom fixtures could also benefit from an update. The country charm is definitely there; it just wants a little more updating to be country great.

Pleasant clean inn at good value. There’s not too much choice for dinner restaurants locally so we would go to next closest town Fillmore, next time, for dinner. Breakfast snacks provided (cereal, yogurt, granola bars, fruit) with tea/ coffee were appreciated. Letchworth park is quite close with lovely hikes which is main reason we stayed here.

Very helpful and friendly staff! Nice amenities and very clean. The best location for visiting Houghton University. We’ve stayed many times over the past four years and it feels like coming home when we visit. Also love the music played in the lobby area!
