A group of 13 of us spent a weekend at the house and it could not have been more perfect. Plenty of space and accommodations. Super functional space and extremely easy process overall. Would definitely rent again.

It has a lot of character and tons of space, plus the property it's on is beautiful. I was only there for two nights with my group but we all loved it. I'd love to come back in the summer when I can use the pond!

A very roomy home to stay; it's about 15 minutes from the nearby restaurants so it's recommended to prepare a meal (or two.)
Great Location, Great House!

Quiet and Lovely Home in a great location - 12 mins to New Paltz & Kingston, and 6 mins to Rosendale but feels like a world away from everything. Plenty of room for my family of four to spread out and unwind. Would definitely return!
