If you like the outdoors, hiking, canoeing, kayaking, this is a great place to go. Our family of 5 adults recently vacationed here. The home was clean, had a full kitchen with all the cooking utensils necessary to make all our meals, an adequate supply of bath towels, comfortable beds, and a large screened in porch in the back of the house. There is a large washer and dryer available, so you can pack light too!

The property has blazed walking trails for easy morning walks. We hiked several beautiful sections of the Appalachian Trail, canoed and kayaked at Silver Lake state park, and baked bread at the King Arthur Baking school.

A friend recommended a book titled "Take the Plunge" (you can purchase this in the Woodstock book store) which outlines many remote, clean, water holes to swim. We hiked to one and had a wonderful afternoon swimming, and having a picnic lunch.

We spent our evenings playing board games, toasting marshmallows, star gazing and listening to the moose calls in the distance.

There is no TV here, (which we knew before hand) but there is wi-fi to get netflicks programs.

We chose to prepare most of our meals at the house, and enjoyed relaxing on the porch afterwards with a glass of wine and good conversations.

There are several markets in Woodstock to get fresh meats, produce and local products.

We had dinner out once, at the Worthy Kitchen, (after our day of baking breads), which did not impress us. They make you wait on a long line (45 minutes) to order your food, then you must find a table, (we had to clean our table before sitting down) and then the food took another 45 minutes for it to be served. 3 of us ordered burgers, and each of them were served differently, 2 had 2 patties, one was missing cheese, another missing tomato. The chicken was dry and tough. They serve locally crafted beers in small 10 once glasses and charge as if they are full pints. And, they poured it full of foam, so you basically get about 6-8 ounces of beer after the foam settles for $8. Our advice is to go to the Woodstock market, buy freshly ground local beef and grill it at the house.

This was a beautiful family vacation, and we all a wonderful time relaxing, unwinding and and enjoying each others company and the many outdoor activities available.
