Our family had the most amazing time at this wonderful expansive and beautifully decorated home. There were so many exciting games to keep them all busy all morning and evening. Leah was always available for any questions. She keeps adding more to the details of the home. It was so well stocked with linen, bedding and towels and was super clean, cozy and decorated in the most vacation beautiful way. The yard is beautiful too, both front and back and we enjoyed seeing deer around the neighborhood every evening. We'd love to come back again!

50th Birthday Gathering

This house was perfect for our group, there to celebrate a 50th birthday with friends and family. Close to Bethel Woods for an easy trek to a concert, and the next day to visit the Woodstock museum. The open kitchen/island and the large dining table were perfect for family style meals and games. The area is beautiful, and walking down the road brought amazing views! The fire pit was a great space to gather and stay warm. Just an awesome stay, and Leah was an excellent host!

11 of us guys in our 40s met for a college reunion. Thank you thank you thank you Leah for a marvelous house! The description and photos were accurate. No issues with any indoor or outdoor amenities. Plenty of yard space for lawn games. Loved the Mortal Kombat arcade machine & indoor basketball hoop. We pulled out the trundle bed mattresses so 6 of us could comfortably sleep in the bunkbed room. K-cup coffee machine was excellent. Lots of kitchen supplies to help. Door lock process was smooth. And through it all Leah was so wonderful with communicating. Thank you!

Awesome Spot for a Friend Getaway

My group of friends and I have been planning weekend long get togethers at random vrbos and other rentals for a couple of years now and this one was a fantastic stay! The space was incredible and we had plenty of room to eat, sleep, and play. The hot tub was also incredible! The weather didn't give us a lot of options in terms of excursions but we took an hour long drive to Walden to check out the Angry Orchard cidery and it was well worth the drive. The property is also super close to the original Woodstock site which was worth the visit! Leah was a very thoughtful and helpful host and we would absolutely come back!

Mid Winter break & birthday

Our second stay at the Retro Ranch (first was a winter break during the pandemic) and, as usual, what a great time. Spacious, stylish and very comfortable, the retro ranch was the perfect three day holiday weekend locale for our daughter’s birthday. Friends & family loved it. Leah is a wonderful host who is super communicative and has a property manager to help if she’s not available. Can’t wait to come back in the summer for a show at Bethel Woods.

Celebrate back in time!

Our family got together at the Retro Ranch to celebrate my wife's retirement and the house bacame a major element of the entire weekend. Plenty of room for our 12 adult group to have meals together, hang out on the kitchen or the TV room, or by the fire. You are in a secluded location , yet very easy access to many local attractions that fit a variety of interest. We did like to be back to enjoy the Sunsets! Communication with Leah was excelent and was very responsive to our inquiries. We enjoy places that looks impresive and welcoming at the same time, the Retro Ranch is very much that.

Space for days

The space is even larger in person. We greatly appreciated the really bright colors. Definitely a little room for improvement, but for what we needed (Clean space with plenty of room to stretch out) we couldn't have asked for a better space. Property owner was great with communication even though I didn't notice she was checking in with us until much later. I guess that's a sign that their directions and information ahead of time was really good! Definitely plan to rent the space again in the future.

Beautiful and relaxing property!

The property is gorgeous! We came with a family (with little kids) and a bunch of adults as well and it was awesome for all age groups. One of our friends said "I saw the pictures and thought it can't possibly be that beautiful, but no, it's even prettier in real life!" Down to every last detail. Even the microwave and knives match the decor. 😉 The fresh air is amazing, beautiful quiet area. We brought quite a few activities to do once we got there but the space lends itself to chilling and relaxing around the fire that we didn't end up needing any of the activities we brought. There's a game room, two areas to relax on the couch and chairs near the island. Not to mention Leah is the perfect host! super helpful and responsive! 10/10 would go again

A wonderful quarantine safe break from NYC

We had a quarantine safe getaway from NYC complete with everything we needed. Leah was such a gracious host that she ordered food platters and serving bowls for our holiday dinner and had it delivered to us. She truly made sure that whatever we needed was on hand. Our children explored the neighborhood and enjoyed daily runs and spotting deer. They spent time outside around the fire pit eating smores and chatting. Plenty of movies to watch and tons of space to sit, eat and fellowship. Leah’s home is super clean. Our group all currently work remotely including the kids. We chose the home specifically because of the fast WiFi and thankfully it delivered! Also, the mattresses were very comfortable- memory foam I think. We would definitely return. We were a group of 7 and felt like we had tons of space for more guests. Thank you Leah for sharing your lovely home with us!

About the host

Hosted by Leah

Host profile image
I have a tremendous passion for renovating and designing homes. It's even more enjoyable to be able to share these homes with others by offering them as vacation rentals. I truly love hosting people and it's my goal that every guest has an amazing stay.

Why they chose this property

This house was purchased from an auction and it was stuck in a 1965 time warp. It had great bones though and I recognized right away that this was a quality built custom home. It's also very large, especially for a one-level house, and sits on an extremely secluded 20 acres of property. I knew this house was a keeper as soon as I saw it. As for the design, I decided to work with some of the cool 1965 features that were inside the home and a few choice furniture items that were left behind from the previous owner. Aside from that, most of the interior of the house was completely renovated to brand new condition in a modern style. It still has some 60s flair blended in with that modern style which makes for a fun, casual but classy setting.
