Paradise

Laura and Tom are very friendly and accommodating. We arranged to see their horses and had some great conversation. Their property is beautiful and was able to do a short hike. The lake is gorgeous, unfortunately we didn’t get to use the paddle boats as it was raining but it was a super peaceful clean place to stay.

Our stay was fantastic! We spent the entire day on the lake, and it was relaxing and completely amazing. Bring your tackle and fishing rods - the fishing was great! Laura and Tom were SO helpful and responsive which made the whole experience phenomenal!! I would highly recommend this private lake getaway.

Tranquility

We had a quiet and relaxing stay. The property was very beautiful. We felt at home immediately, we were welcomed by the owner when we arrived and made to feel welcomed. We even were able to watch wildlife grazing from one of the windows!

Lovely dwelling and property

My wife and I stayed at Rippling Waters for two nights in early August. The cabin is a lovely, luxurious getaway for two, with an airy living room, wood floors, well appointed kitchen and modern furnishings. The extensive property has several dwellings, including a barn, where Laura, one of our hosts, graciously showed us her three horses--a treat! We took a lovely fifteen-minute hike up a hill to a beautiful overlook and peered down at morning mist shrouding the town of Delhi, a ten-minute drive away. There's a completely private lake on the premises. We didn't take advantage of the canoe, kayak or paddle boat, but I did go for a couple of nice swims--avoiding weedy spots. The lake is a bit murky and the bottom not the best for wading barefoot Tom and Laura, our hosts, were particular about greeting us at check-in; arranging this required our sending several text messages beginning the day before our arrival. Once we'd sorted out the check-in, Tom and Laura were eager to give us very helpful information about the surrounding area, local restaurants, etc. Overall, our stay was pleasant, hospitable--and even memorable.

Great Stay

When we were looking for a quiet place to spend a few days, we came across Tom and Laura's "Rippling Waters". It is 400 acres of nature in all its splendor, with a large spring-fed lake as the focal point. Needless to say, we were quite happy with our decision to stay. Tom was very pleasant upon our arrival, and gave us helpful suggestions regarding restaurants and other activities in town, including the farmers market. After spending three nights, we found it difficult to leave. If you are looking for a quiet, peaceful, and relaxing few days, we heartily recommend staying at "Rippling Waters".

About the host

Hosted by Tom and Laura

We moved to the country to change the rhythm of our lives. The peace and quiet of nature has opened doors for us to explore our artistic side and live a healthier lifestyle. Our dream retreat is a private 400 acre sanctuary nestled in the Catskill Mountains of Upstate NY. The house and property were landscaped and designed by us and includes miles of trails lined with old stone walls. The retreat family includes beautiful horses, 2 adoring dogs, peacocks..... Hiking, swimming, fishing, canoeing, and horseback riding, are some of the activities that inspire each day....Winding down with a pen or a paintbrush or a meditative reflection along the waters edge.... Sipping homemade wine by the fireplace as the moon reflects upon the are just a few of the many joys that brought us here. Come and be inspired too!
