Nice and quaint, great mattress, a little cramped with some freeway noise
The check in/out process was super-simple. The communication from the property manager was nice and cordial. The TV/couch area was a little cramped and the freeway noise was noticeable, but the bed mattress was one of the most comfortable mattresses that I have ever slept on. That bed was probably the highlight for me. We used the place as a sleeping spot as we traveled/explored the area and NYC.
Quick weekend getaway close enough to home but far enough to not be at home. House was clean and property manager was very easy to get ahold of if needed!

About the host

Why they chose this property
I fell in love with the quiet sleepy town of Rosendale. There's so much sightseeing, hiking and antiquing in the area. It was a welcomed retreat from NYC. I found this old horse farm by chance on my travels and fell in love. Right now one of the cottages is for rent but over the next several years I plan to open the doors of the other cottages and host some fun events.
What makes this property unique
1.5 miles away from the Trailways bus stop in TIllson this is a perfect getaway from the bustle of Manhattan.
The skies are so open and beautiful at night. There's virtually no light pollution. A sea of stars above your head to enjoy while lighting a cozy fire in the custom made firepit.
Many mornings I've seen deer walking past the firepit as it lies on a deer path.
