My friends and I stayed for one night to attend a concert at a local casino. As soon as you walk in you could tell the owner took great care of the property! It was clean,organized and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. We would definitely recommend to stay and we all wished we did stay longer!
This was a clean, comfortable home with a great location for the wedding venue we were attending. Found a wonderful restaurant and area was easy to get around.
We were celebrating Christmas with my family and needed an extra location to stay. The house was cozy and there was even a tree there to greet us. It was the first time our children spent Christmas away from out house, so the tree was appreciated!
We chose this house for our stay following a wedding at the Hayloft, and could not have been happier with the choice. The house is beautiful, very well maintained and the owner Michael was fantastic to work with. We would absolutely choose this property again, and recommend to anyone staying in the area. Cheers

This property was clean, cozy and has plenty of room to enjoy...the bed I slept in was comfortable. I would definitely recommend this home if your in the area and need a place to stay..
Absolutely loved this home! Very quiet and serene despite being on a busier road. Short 10 minute drive to Hamilton and one of the cleanest places I have stayed. Adorable little home with everything you could ask for. Owner even left us a welcome note and there were mints in a bowl when we walked in!
For a house being on a 2 lane road, it was surprisingly quiet!! The house was clean and lovely. The beds very comfortable and also clean!! I loved having my morning coffee on the back porch and watching the rabbits and woodchuck. The host was great and easy to get in touch with. I would definitely stay here again
Very clean and accommodating property. Had some fluke troubles with check-in but thankfully the host made everything right. Truly enjoyed our stay and would recommend to others traveling in the area
Don't hesitate to book this property for your stay! Plenty of room, spotless, and a great host. Our family attended a wedding in the area and the location was perfect.
Thank you again Michael.
A great location we stayed at with our friends! We were celebrating our mutual friends wedding at the Cannery and the location could not have been better! The house was clean and perfect for what we needed! Thank you for letting us stay!
My husband and I, kids and grandkid were in Vernon for a family reunion. We found the house comfortable, clean, well stocked and welcoming. Location was perfect for us, just 2 1/2 miles from our reunion. The parents of the toddler appreciated the access to the washer/dryer at the house.
Check in was very simple and easy. Host was helpful before we checked in and while we were there, answering any questions and giving guidance. The house was nice and cool with AC, atmosphere was very cozy and welcoming. Had so many immensities available, it made our stay super convenient. Was the perfect size house for my family.
We needed an overnight place to stay for a wedding with family. It was perfect! This is a very clean and cozy home with easy parking for 3 cars and very close to the turning stone casino. Love the coffee station amenities, and the toiletries were spot on. The beds were comfortable with fans available if we needed them. Would definitely stay here again!
This home was perfect. I have difficulty traveling, as I am not a good sleeper. I travel with my fan and a weighted blanket. This house had ceiling fans in every room, fans to plug in, a variety of pillows and televisions in two of the 3 bedrooms. It is designed for any type of traveler. It was minutes from Turning Stone Casino - we were attending a concert there. It was well stocked. Such a sweet place. I am hoping to travel there again for more than one night. If you're looking to be in/around Vernon, NY. I highly recommend Terrapin Station!
Finding and getting to the place was very easy and convenient a very short drive from where i live and very close by to the casino and other very good restaurants near by and dont forget how close it is to sylvan beach very nice.the stay was very great and relaxing and has very large space for the house with the three bedrooms and 2 bathrooms even tho i thought the bathroom where the kitchen is was very small for my yaste but very convenient when having more then 1 or two people in the house.the living room and bedrooms top key point blank on everything that you needed for a house full size kitchen with a full size refrigerator and even a dish washer i like that it came with a washer and dryer really convenient. no complaints on my end at all everything was great thank you very much for everything wish i could of stayed a little bit longer for at least another few days but had to get back into town to get back to reality to work and everyday life.i would very like to thank the owners for a wonderful time and a really great place to stay.i will be definitely telling others about this website and this location for others to hopefully enjoy as much as i did.thank you so much for letting me stay at your home and thank you very much for everything ang your great hospitality.i will definitely look into this home again when available to hopefully rent out again someday when possible.thank you so much
House was very nice. Clean. PLENTY of amenities. It was literally 3min down the road from the venue of my daughter's wedding. Almost exactly half way between my kids homes too. Was bitter cold most of the time we were there but didn't notice it at all inside the house. Would definitely stay again if the right circumstances arise. VERY happy with the whole experience.
