This place is fantastic! Scott is excellent to deal with - very pleasant and quick to respond to any questions. The location is so pretty and peaceful and the cabin was so cozy with lots of extra touches that made it feel homey. We went to a concert at Bethel Woods/Woodstock and the location was super convenient. Would definitely rent this house again!

We had the perfect stay with our pups! The place was super cozy, clean, and had everything we needed plus more! The host was extremely accommodating with the check in and very responsive when we reached out with questions. Our pups loved the dog park that was only a 5 minute drive, the reservoir nearby, and the hiking trails. I don’t think I have ever seen them so happy which of course made us super happy! We also really enjoyed the backyard, the porch, and seeing all the wildlife! Also the grill was fantastic! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Thank you so much!
