This was our second visit and we had a great time . the hosts were very good getting back to us ! The house had everything we needed . Only problem was the deck area by the hot tub , bbq and fire pit was not cleared of ice and snow , there was just a small path to walk on . Other than that we really enjoyed this charming 3 fireplace farm house !!

Always a pleasure

We have stayed at Grey Hill Retreat multiple times over the last couple of years and always have a great visit. The home has everything we need and even though the cold and snow kept us off the deck and out of the hot tub, we still had a great time.

Winter getaway

We had a great time at the house , it sits on a hill with great views of the Catskills. Even though it was very cold outside we were very comfortable in the house. Three fireplaces and a hot tub made it warm and cozy.

This was our 4th trip back and this has become our home away from home. We have everything we need- a very well appointed kitchen, hot tub, grill and king size bed! We’re pretty simple when we travel and this home has it all. Always immaculate and comfortable with everything in perfect working order. We love the pond in the summer and fireplace in the winter. We always feel at home at Gray Hill Retreat!

Great location for a weekend with girlfriends.

The house was spacious and clean. There is so much space for relaxing inside and plenty of outdoor seating. The kitchen was well stocked for all our cooking needs. The spa was clean and easy to use. It was great to sit outside and enjoy the scenery.

About the host

Hosted by Bonnie Thomas

Host profile image
My family resides in New Jersey and have loved spending time at our "Country House" for many years.

Why they chose this property

Sadly we lost our father this past year and rather than lose the property we decided to keep it in the family while sharing it with others.

What makes this property unique

If you're looking for quiet this is the place to be. Neighbors are very spaced apart.
