We adored our stay at this property! You’re primarily paying for privacy and amenities- fires in both an indoor fireplace & an outdoor pit (with some wood to start you off), hot tub fully prepared & rearing to go, game room including PAC machine, pool table, air hockey, & more, and a GORGEOUS & fully equipped kitchen! Property has the perfect level of privacy- tucked up in the woods off of the road (up a slight & unpaved incline) and it features a PRIVATE POND! There’s even a picnic table and 2 benches by the water. This property would be perfect for a large gathering and also a great choice if bringing children. In warmer seasons, there’s even a heated above ground pool! Has large deck with grill and tons of seating. There are 3 large comfy couches for ample seating in the main area & 2 huge couches in basement, an 8 person kitchen table & plenty of seats along the island, 2 stand up showers, 2 toilets, & a separate bath, 2 refrigerators, washer & dryer (with detergent provided), multiple TVs, and plenty of parking. The owners are very thoughtful and almost everything you could need is provided! I really love how they send a list of everything included in the property so there is no guess work as to what you need to pack. They were extremely responsive and helpful during all communication. Additionally, we loved the area of the property! There are many great restaurants that are easily accessible, as well as a couple grocery stores and other sights. Excellent property!

Such a sweet touch to provide some s’mores!

Gaming room that walks out to hot tub & fire pit

My family and I, along with our baby, stayed here for a week. There was plenty for space and the environment is very relaxing. It has the feeling of being tucked away but a 5-10 minute drive gets you to town or to shops and restaurants. It’s easy to drive past it though, wish the house # was further out so it’s more visible. The house is pretty old so sometimes the wires would trip. Not a big deal but happened about 3 times during our whole stay. There were a few dead bugs (it’s in the middle of the woods so not surprised about this) and crumbs of chips inside the house when we first got there, and the bedsheets were stained and old. Natalie and Bob were great - very responsive and nice. We had a nice time just hanging out on the balcony and had fun playing foosball and pool in the game room. Quick drive from NYC for a nice r&r with family - we enjoyed our stay and would go back!
