**Log Cabin * Hot Tub * Private Pond * 23 acres * 4.6 miles from Bethel Woods**

The property is really nice, with a private pond and wooded surroundings. Although a light rain fell for most of our 48 hour getaway we still managed to spend a lot of time kayaking and barbecuing under the eaves. Unfortunately we could not eat on the deck but the indoors is so spacious and welcoming that we really didn't mind. Between a side trip to Bethel Woods (the site of Woodstock and it's great museum) and a more than adequate supply of books and games we always found something to do. Bill greeted us at the door, showed us around and assured us that he would be available should we need him. We would definitely consider a return trip.

A beautiful home tucked away just enough to make you feel like you are deep in the wilderness, yet close enough to restaurants for when you want to pop back into civilization! Fully stocked, well appointed and very clean home. Has everything you would ever need. Do a lot, do nothing. Very peaceful. We loved walking the trails around the property, sitting in the hot tub and of course, roasting marshmallows around the fire pit! Wonderful weekend. We'll be back.

It is an incredible property and the hosts had everything prepared for our arrival. The house is warm and welcoming. Our favorite part was sitting on the couch in front of the fire place, playing music and just talking. To say we were comfortable is an understatement. We cannot thank you enough for opening your gem to us for our trip. Thank you!

A dream come true!!!!

My party of 6 adults had an amazing experience staying for 2 nights at Bill & Julie's Moonrise Pond. I won't bore you with the convenience of the home in relation to Bethel Woods and other great communities, such as Calicoon. What separates this property from others is the thoughtfulness of the owners. Bill and Julie are already one step ahead of their guests with regards to having a great time. They truly went above & beyond. Many reviewers have touched on the big selling points: the lake, the hot tub, the fire pit, luxurious queen size beds and more. Those features certainly were as described & wonderful. What sets Moonrise Pond apart are the little details, availability all necessary cooking supplies...oscillating fans in every bedroom...crystal clear instructions about the Wifi & all other electronics...the piano being perfectly tuned...texts from the owners with local tips...slippers of varying sizes to wear in the home. You will never need to run to the store for "that 1 thing we forgot"....Bill already knows you forgot it and he's provided it. Thanks Bill! We cooked 3 full meals and the kitchen was better stocked with utensils than the home of Bed & Bath & Beyond's CEO. We also really enjoyed walking the various trails behind the house, playing badminton in the yard, and the automatic fire place in the living room. After a weekend at this home, there are absolutely zero "con's" to mention. Bill and Julie have truly thought of it all! We loved our stay and hope to return soon for a drum circle.
