Excellent Getaway
I stayed here over the holidays with my family and we had a fantastic experience. Matt was extremely communicative and a true pleasure to deal with. The house was beautifully designed, spacious and clean. The kitchen was well-equipped with anything you could need for cooking, and a great outdoor deck with grill! Overall it was a great experience and I can't recommend it enough!

Best VRBO I've ever stayed in
I've stayed in many places and I think this was not only the best VRBO, but better than our own house! The sheets are super soft, the cookware is better than ours at home, the house is super clean and spacious. Matt was very communicative and helpful - including mailing back my jacket I left there! If you want to really relax I can't recommend it enough!

Connecticut Retreat
This was my second visit to this well appointed and charming house. It is located in a very pretty wooded area and has a gorgeous garden. I found it to be convenient to Ridgefield, North Salem and Danbury. Overall it is just super and enjoyed by me and my friend for cozy dinners at home and for exploring hiking trails and horse properties. The host Matt is the best!!!

About the host

Hosted by Matt Farnsworth

Host profile image
My husband and I run our company in NYC and this house has been our saving grace for the last 4 years! We are now having to travel more in the summer, but finally decided to share the love with others. We hold the house very dear to our hearts and are only interested in renting to people who take care of things and are respectful of others things. if this is you we are more than happy to have you! Also we are here to answer any questions.

Why they chose this property

What is amazing about this house is that it FEELS like you are in the country a million miles away from it all, however you are truly only a 5 minute drive to Whole Foods and the mall! You just need to leave the secluded private paradise down the long gravel driveway and you will be back in civilization within 5 minutes! It is truly a paradise for us as we live n NYC and didn't want to feel like we were on the road or had other houses nearby.

What makes this property unique

Privacy, beautifully decorated and well maintained. Gorgeous gardens designed by Camilla Designs. Five minute drive to Danbury Mall and Whole Foods, 10 minutes to downtown Danbury and downtown Ridgefield. ACT Connecticut and Ridgefield playhouse also present Broadway Caliber entertainment in Ridgefield.
