Really enjoyed our stay at this comfy cottage. Easily slept a family of 3 with plenty of room to lounge around. It's an older cottage, but the owner has added a lot of neat touches that make this a nice place to stay in this area.

Not for a winter stay
The house has tons of animal hair. I realize it’s pet friendly but it didn’t look the the place was cleaned before we arrived. The driveway was snow covered and there was no salt to put down. There are extension cords everywhere running the lights. There were no baking pans and no steak knives. The bedrooms had no heat. When we spoke to him he asked us what we wanted him to do. We said we wanted a heating guy to come out and he said that wasn’t happening and we could run the fireplace all night to supplement the heat. That was not acceptable to us
The yard, hammock and large porch were very comfortable. The wiring of the house made us all rather nervous- so many multi plug outlet splitters, a wires cut on the exterior of the house, some built-in lights not functioning. The kitchen is unevenly stocked: no colander to strain pasta, no veg peeler. But coffee and oil etc on hand, which is nice. A bit tricky to work with.
Property was quaint and clean. Beds comfortable. Property was nice for a short stay. while a microwave was included, it did not heat food. Also, the washer and dryer did not function; the washer shorted before it even began load sensing. The washer was plugged into an outlet adapter which buzzed when electricity was applied. We understand that when the house was built, electricity was non existent, but the retrofit seems a bit haphazard. There were MANY extension cords powering desk lamps & fans around the house. While lighting was plentiful, the house was lit almost exclusively by table lamps.
It was an awesome stay. So close to the mountains. Gorgeous home and very comfortable

Very nice cottage and big yard. Very clean and safe. Close to a great outlet mall as well. We used it to visit our cadet at West Point and would highly recommend.

Great stay! Cottage is perfect this time of year, nice and cozy with everything you need! It was easy to get in and easy to check out. Lots of seating and hang out space both indoors and out. Great linens so I got a great night's sleep. Location is super convenient to Bear Mountain and Harriman State Park as well as the outlets. There is some minimal lighting in some areas, but very easy to deal with.
This property and rental exceeded my expectations by far! The pictures do not do justice. Has everything you need and more to have a perfect stay. Everything was clean and it felt like home. Me and my sister stayed here 3 nights and did not want to leave. The property is beautiful! I read the reviews before coming here and I have to say there were two things said, that there was no microwave and not enough lighting. The host immediately got a microwave and updated the lighting! I found that so cute. Everything you need is here. They even have a toaster over that can air fry.This place was so cozy. We wanted a cottage experience and that’s what we got! A number of blankets and pillows.Host responded right away. I wish I lived there! Will definitely be a regular customer here! 😃. Thank you so much for a great experience!

The property had difficult lighting which was not helpful for someone who doesn't have great vision. Things were difficult to find or reach in terms of lighting m
Great property for having a dog friendly environment. However, it is on a very fast traffic street so be careful not to allow a dog or young child out by themselves.
If you are looking to shop, great property. If wanting to relax not so much.
The house is two stories with 2 bedrooms and one bathroom on the 2nd Floor.
Beautiful home and property and great host. The house is a bit cluttered with knock nacks and slightly difficult to find space for your own belongings and bathroom assecories like cosmetics and tooth brush and outlets.
Great weekend Getaway ! Our host Frank was attentive and answered quickly any questions we had. The place is so peaceful and relaxing and the porch and outdoor eating fantastic . Not to mention the idyllic setting of the hammock relaxing there was just what was needed.
We look forward to returning 🤗😊

Not impressed with property at all. Not clean, old and smelly, no central AC, doors didn’t close. Very small place.
We really enjoyed relaxing on the front porch after a busy day out. Beds were very comfortable. So nice to be able to sit around and visit, instead being in a hotel, sitting on beds. We did miss having a microwave to use. Very nice and affordable.
