We were in the area for a wedding, and it was what we needed. We rented two homes- and these were right next to each other.They had this great Sauna - and the owners were very responsive.
Great weekend had by all. This was the perfect getaway with grandkids. Loved the game room, hot tub, dock for fishing and steam room. The house was well stocked with towels and the kitchen had everything you’d need.
Friends got together for the NY Sheep and Wool Festival. Everything was clean and comfortable, and we loved sitting on the dock and going out in the kayaks.
I absolutely love this cottage and would happily stay there again. It’s honestly even better than it looks in the pictures. I stayed here with two friends for New York Sheep and Wool- we enjoyed the kayaking and the sauna particularly, but everything about the house was so inviting, calm, and beautiful- kudos to the owner or the property manager for keeping everything in such great condition. Lots of thoughtful details- like coffee and even extra toothbrushes. A!
We only stayed two nights but thoroughly enjoyed ourselves! There were games for the kids and plenty of beds for our crew! There is a wonderful animal sanctuary 5 mins away and we visited New Paltz, Kingston and Woodstock as well because they are all short drives from the house. We will definitely be back! Thank you for having us!
The cottage was easy to locate and the outside was graced with beautiful trees and potential outdoor activities. The indoors was inviting and tastefully decorated. We planned to prepare most of our own meals and were thankful for kitchen appliances, including a hot air fryer, that were modern and worked well. Cupboards/drawers were stocked with a variety of ceramic dishes, adequate pans, and utensils, etc. We loved the sauna and its wonderful cedar aroma as well as the hot tub. The beds had very comfortable sheets, blankets, and pillows. The bathrooms were top notch and included everything we needed, including an abundance of towels. We packed light so we were thankful for the clean and updated laundry room in the basement. There is a great selection of indoor and outdoor games/activities.An impressive detailed informational book created by the hostess included everything from information on how things worked to emergency info, to her contact & property info as well as tourist sites and grocery stores in the area. The cottage is located on a dead-end road so plan on driving to your destination.Some areas outside could use some sprucing up but overall we enjoyed our stay and, if in the area, would not hesitate to stay there again.Thanks to our hostess for a job well done.
