Wonderful place to stay!

My husband, daughter and I had a wonderful stay! The house was clean and spacious. We loved drinking coffee in the morning with a fire in the fireplace. My daughter had a blast outside on the swing set. The kitchen was literally a dream. Jeff was easy to communicate with and very accommodating. We are originally from New Fairfield and it was so great to find such a perfect property for our family that we plan to return to for our next visit!!
