Freaking phenomenal! First time here and it impresses! I mean the location is second to none. Absolutely beautiful backdrop to a laid back but also upscale dining experience. Wait staff is attentive without being overbearing. Food is creative while being approachable. 11/10. Will be coming back!

Great food in an amazing location. Boating to dinner is always a great experience. The chicken sandwich was my favorite.

Nice view of the south tip of Skaneatles Lake. Jen, our waitress, was great. The food was satiating and met our expectations; fresh and homemade, even the bread!

We were hiking in the area (Hinchcliff Preserve) and wanted to find somewhere quick to grab a bite to eat. We were surprised to find this historic gem. It sits on a beautiful, peaceful stretch of land with a view of the very southern tip of Skaneateles Lake. All of the food was delicious: the wings were some of the best I've had, the hush puppies were drizzled with hot honey and butter, the bbq brisket was fantastic... everything is home made and it shows. Our server Wendy was great and made us feel at home. We will definitely be coming back.

Enjoyed brunch today at the Glen Haven. Delicious quiche, homemade muffin, home fries and the fruit was just picked fresh. Also picked up a book from the store set up in the front. It is a new bookstore open in cortland. Very nice friendly couple.

Great spot at the end of the lake. They have a new hot and cold dip each day with homemade pita. Highly recommend the homemade pasta as well! Beautiful lake views and I love it because I can bring my pup with me.

The food here is soooo good. For an off beaten path restaurant the pasta, blue cheese, ranch, French fries, pumpkin pie all homemade and so good. The pizza and wings are some of the best I have had. Wings are crispy and oversized, sauces are so yummy. Everything about my first time going there was definitely 5 stars plus!! My server Wendy was awesome. Very attentive to my order to anything I needed and was very prompt. Can't wait to come back again and again and summer time is a MUST being that it's next to Skaneateles Lake. They have a beautiful front deck that you can eat and drink and I'm sure the views will be picture perfect!! They also have airbnb so if you're looking for a place this is it!! Thank you Glen Haven I WILL SEE YOU AGAIN!! The menu does change with the seasons - just FYI - I looked at menu online before going and when I got there not everything was on the menu, but they had plenty else to choose from.
