Mr Ed's Cabin on 27 acre Horse Farm Hot Tub & Stream

Well, I only met my host briefly as they know you want to just breath the fresh air and the peace and quiet, in fact, when I pulled up and said I have to pay you the rest for the stay Tim said... don't worry about the money now, get settled in... When I left, I left the balance on the table, guess he saw in my eyes I'm a regular down to earth guy. They have a policy of no dogs on the bed, my dogs are spoiled but I brought some large sheets that I threw on the bed and shook them out in the yard each morning as not to have hair. There was pots and pans, silverware, glasses, etc., a coffee machine (thank god) plus some condiments. I brought my own food pre-cooked so all I needed to do was heat it up. The only BAD thing I could say is (1) front door needs a screen door, would have been nice to keep it open, get the air in without letting the bugs in or one of those screens on a pressure rod; (2) I didn't see a broom, if there was one I would have swept as my dogs track dirt in, I took off my shoes but does no good when in socks and dogs are dragging in dirt, a small broom and cheap spong mop and I would have been glad to clean up; and (3) the toaster over needs to be replaced, works but SLOW LOL, but then again, I was in no rush LOL, stupid complaints right.. I brought some bug candles and had them lite outside by the door at night just to keep them away... hey... its the woods, bugs are part of that experience, can't complaint about that, its nature... but a screen of some sort (seasonal) on the front door would have been really nice. The yard(s) are fenced in so my dogs were safe if I let them out, He ask that you keep the front yard clean as I certainly complied, except dum dum me, I left my bag of garbage in the cabin and forgot to take it out when I left and put it in the appropriate cans "sorry guys". In all, I give it a 9.5 out of a 10.

We had a great 5 day vacation. Mr. Ed's cabin is a comfortable, clean studio with many quaint decorative touches. It has a porch and small fenced in yard. The farm has chickens, bunnies, horses and a goat and is quite near to Mohonk and Minnewaska State Park. We hope to return soon!

Friendly hosts, nice property. Fire pit and hot tub are a must! Watch out for enthusiastic goat

We needed a place to stay in the area of the "Gunks", as my husband was doing some rock climbing all day on the Saturday. Me and our 2 dogs were just along for the ride. I'm not sure what I expected. We were only there for 2 nites, so even tho I didn't really like the place, I survived. Mr Ed's cabin is a small one room cabin. And we were fine with that. We've stayed at many rented places over the years. It doesn't have to be big. Even the set-up inside was fine. My problem laid mostly in the fact that the place wasn't clean. It felt like no one had stayed there for quite a while or even looked in on the place. There were dead bugs and cobwebs in a few places. That doesn't say to me that it's been cleaned recently. Sure someone came in and made the bed. Altho, I can't even say for sure if the sheets were changed between guests. Most times, freshly changed sheets smell fresh. These did not. So either they were not changed at all or they were changed a long time ago and lost the fresh smell. There were a few live ants on the kitchen counter and one in the bed as well. While yes this place is on a farm and there's bound to be a few bugs from time to time. It's the cobwebs, live ants and dead bugs laying on the floor and a big mosquito dead in a cobweb that was a turn-off. The whole place could use some sprucing up outside as well. Also the tv didn't work. Yes there was one, but it wasn't hooked up and was missing a power cord. We asked for a cord and were eventually brought one, but there was no way this cord would've worked for the tv. Anyone could've looked at it and known that. Well almost anyone. Since I was at the house/cabin all day on Saturday, without a vehicle, it would have been nice to relax and watch a little bit of tv. But again, only there for 2 nites, not that big a deal. It seems to me that if "hospitality" is your business and you're renting out places, that you'd make sure they were clean. Use a vacuum cleaner, clean up the cobwebs and dead bugs. I'm not a prude, I live in the country and deal with this kind of thing all the time. I just don't enjoy dead bugs or live ants in my house. That was my main problem with Mr Ed's Cabin. And such an easy thing to take care of. If you don't mind that kind of thing, then by all means, stay there.

With chickens and horses and a goat and a hot tub and a river and plenty of grass to run on, our family, and especially our young daughter, always has an excellent time.
