Antonio's house was perfect for our family gathering to celebrate our daughter's graduation. It's a dog-friendly, commodious home with a well-appointed kitchen and a large backyard ideal for badminton and croquet. The house is part of the larger Sleepy Hollow subdivision that has many sporting facilities within walking distance. The development has a suburban character and is somewhat removed from the village of Athens. For our purposes, the house couldn't be beat!

A lovely home. The set up and furnishings were extremely comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked. The backyard provided a perfect setting for morning coffee and deer sighting. All told a great getaway for our extended family of ten.

Excellent space

Great home with plenty of space for a big family. We appreciated the bonus space in the basement as well- was very far (noise wise) from four sleeping rooms on top floor

Thanksgiving with family

This home was the perfect place to gather with our visiting parents, college-age kids, and dogs. We were very comfortable in the living spaces and bedrooms and thoroughly enjoyed the pool table and penned in dog area. The kitchen is well stocked and a pleasure to cook in. Thanks for an enjoyable holiday!

Wedding weekend

Owner was very responsive to all inquiries. The house was larger than I expected, which was great! Loved waking up in the morning to the deer in the backyard. Very very quiet neighborhood. Beautiful setting and close to all Hudson has to offer. Highly recommend this home for your stay!

Beautiful house and location for a family getaway

We were celebrating some family milestones and this house was perfect for 9 adults and kid + dogs. The ample backyard was made for running around annd enjoying the quiet splendor of the area. Inside the spaces are all designed for gathering and the rooms are the right amount of homey and sophisticated. The owner is very responsive and provides all the necessities for enjoying big family meals. Overall, wonderful stay and tempted to make this place our go-to destination for family country travel gatherings!

Beautiful large house in nice lake community

This is a lovely large house with a humongous yard in a nice lake community with two pools and tennis courts in the Catskill-Hudson area. Quiet with neighboring houses in sight but out of hearing. Comfortable, beautiful accommodations with pool table, ping pong, office, large TVs, kitchen, grill—all we could need.

Very clean and large space

The house and yard are very spacious. The house is very large. We enjoyed the community amenities. The only real down side for us was the upstairs did not cool down as well as the main floor. However the owner provided fans in all rooms which helped.

Perfect spot for a group with dogs!

This property is nothing less than gorgeous, and as a group with a few dogs it couldn’t have been more perfect. There is a “dog park” space in the backyard that is enclosed, and a huuuuuuge field area for all the zoomies! Not to mention the house which was incredibly spacious, full of anything we could dream of needing, and completely comfortable. A lot of landlords don’t allow pets but we were so grateful to have not only a space that made the humans feel cared for but the pups as well! We will definitely be back!!
