Nice place

We had a nice stay. Everything was good. We weren’t in the house much. We were out most of the time so I can’t really comment too much on the house as we mostly just slept there.

Excellent Place for a Gathering of Close Friends/Family

I would stay here again. The wooded setting is pleasant and the property is nice and has a real homey feel. It is small but sleeps a good number due to multiple beds in a couple of the rooms. I was there with a group of (8) friends from college who know each very well and this set-up worked perfectly for us. Six cars fit easily in the driveway. Short drive to downtown Schenectady restaurants and stores. The self-check-in/out worked easily - although it took some persistence to get the information from the owner. Otherwise, everything was ideal and came as advertised. Lovely little place.
