About this property

Charming 2 Bed backyard guesthouse close to Peekskill, WestPoint, & trails.

Newly remodeled 2 bed/1 bath backyard guesthouse with a patio, small porch, and yard. It includes a patio table that gets lots of sun (umbrella included), a small play area for young children, and a full-sized picnic table in the yard that sits under some trees.

Two TVs with Prime, HBO max, Disney, and Netflix, as well as games, books, and puzzles for your enjoyment. Close to Peekskill, West Point, Bear Mtn, Harriman, Appalachian Trail, & Hudson & Croton Rivers.

The Cottage is a separate dwelling that sits in our backyard in a residential neighborhood that is in a suburb of the greater NYC area. Living on the property enables us to quickly manage issues that may arise and try to make ourselves available for any questions about the area, etc. To allow our guests as much privacy as possible, a privacy wall was added.

Please be aware that we have a poochon who likes to let guests know that he is there. Although we keep him on a leash or in a gated area, at times he has gotten out. He's very friendly with kids, and kids typically love him.

Also, one of our neighbor's chicks grew into a rooster. We have no control over the animals of our neighbors. To counter the noise he might make while guests are trying to sleep (and to help promote sleep for our guests), each bedroom has a white noise machine or fan that should drown out the majority of any noise. If you are very sensitive to noise, however, please consider bringing earplugs.

Excellent stay at the cabin
The property was clean, excellent condition, and up to date. Had everything we needed for our stay. Including shampoo, soap, plates, snack, and so much more. They thought of all the things someone would need if they forgot anything. It was cute little cottage and was perfect for my families stay!
