About this property

Lovely Cottage That Is Completely New With All The Luxuries You Would Want!

This lovely cottage, Golden Glen, is a gem for relaxation and quiet in a perfect setting of serenity. It sets on the edge of 2200 acres of NY State Forest and lush woods. The back looks over a ravine with a stream, complete with a small waterfall. The inside is deluxe with a beautiful living area and fully equipped kitchen, 2 comfortable bedrooms decorated beautifully and all of the amenities of home. The living room is all part of the great room which includes the kitchen and dining area. There is a large gas stone fireplace for cozy evenings. The stones were all collected from the stream and surrounding woods.
The bathrooms are spacious and feature walk in tiled showers. Then there are the amazing porches!! The favorite spot of everyone is the screened in porch that runs the entire length of the back of the cottage. It is comfortable and the setting is completely surrounded by nature. There is even a hawk that has made her nest in the top of a tree near the house!! She has been there for a couple of years. There is a deck off of the upstairs bedroom that is a great place to star gaze on a warm night. The washer and dryer completes the efforts of the owner to make this a true home away from home.

Golden Glen is only 15 minutes from the quaint ski town of Ellicottville, NY. The town has great restaurants and small shops and Holiday Valley Ski Resort offers year round activities. From skiing and winter activities to summer golf and zip lining for the more adventurous.
Bring your bicycles in the summer or your cross country skis or snowshoes in the winter or your hiking boots year round, as the stare forest is full of groomed trails. Or bring your books and just relax and enjoy your surroundings.

We are only 12 minutes from Ellicottville, New York which is a quaint little ski and resort town. You can ski in the winter or golf in the summer. There are world class restaurants for fine dining and wonderful shopping.

It is the perfect place for solitude or a romantic getaway. I hope you will come and enjoy this special place on Golden Hill!!

Golden Glen is pet friendly. Just check the Pet Fee box when you book this amazing cottage in a magical setting!!

We had a great couple night stay that was very relaxing in a last minute booking for a birthday. Host was good with communication and check-in and check-out were very easy.The home is nice and secluded and very clean. We especially enjoyed the back screened-in porch where you can enjoy a chorus of bird song from the ravine. Of special note we had fox and Barred Owl calling at night. The beds, and really all the furniture, were very comfortable. We brought a meal to cook in one night and had adequate cookware to do so. We will definitely be back as we loved the area as well.

Weekend Escape

This was such a peaceful and comfortable place to stay for family weekend getaway. Close enough to the restaurants and activities in Ellicottville, yet far enough to check out for awhile in beautiful surroundings, both inside and outside the cabin.

Magical Mountain Weekend

Golden Glen is one of the most darling and enjoyable places we've stayed. Everything is exactly as pictured, even better probably. We had loved being there sitting by the fire after hiking in the snow. Bette is a wonderful communicator. Would love to return!

Great to be back again

We had another wonderful stay at the cottage and truly appreciate the peaceful atmosphere both inside and out. The space had everything we needed to stay comfortable and cozy, especially with the weather in the teens, including great internal temperature, fireplace and bedding. The snowfall made it even more magical! Can't wait to return again. Thank you so much!

Great quiet getaway

Bette was such a great host and allowed us to change our reservation due to a family situation. The cabin was classy and stylish but sooooo quiet and wirh nothing but nature around. The back porch was great for reading and the upstairs deck had the best stargazing. We loved and needed the getaway! Highly recommend!

Great getaway!

Wonderful place to stay. No neighbors, sitting on the border of a state forest. The screened porch looking over the woods with a babbling brook was heavenly. The level of thought and detail in this place made for a great stay.
