COUNTRY HOME Fenced Backyard, 1 mi. to Town, Kids & Dogs OK!
This lovely spot is just over a mile from the Woodstock Town Green, situated on a small road, nestled into a hillside, where you can watch the leaves change during the day and enjoy a cozy wood fire at night. A real feeling of privacy. Lots of room inside and out for relaxation. The grounds are an interesting combination of lawns, rock gardens, expanses of wood decking and stone work, sheltered nooks, and patio spaces—all designed informally around a fantastic in-ground heated salt water swimming pool. (Pool season is approximately from the end of May through September 15..)
We are only minutes from the main venue for the Woodstock Comedy Festival and the Woodstock Film Festival. And this is a perfect spot to relax and watch the leaves change.
The yard is fully fenced in, making it a great place for children and/or dogs (For insurance reasons we cannot accept Pit Bulls, Rottweilers, or Dobermans). The fenced portion includes the pool area, so supervision may be needed during the open-pool season.
The house is a two-level bungalow dating from the late 1940’s, with Arts & Crafts-style inspiration. The inside is airy and light filled thanks to several sets of French doors and sliding panels that lead to outside. The eat-in kitchen is vintage, with updates for modern cooking. It is serviceable to the Thanksgiving dinner level , and it is lovely for cozy coffee klatching. The spacious, open living/dining area has a cathedral ceiling and wood-burning stone fireplace.
There are three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Two of the bedrooms have queen-sized beds, and the third has an antique brass double bed. The third bedroom/study, upstairs, has a cathedral ceiling as well as a spectacular view. The house sleeps 6 adults comfortably. (If there are children, it may be possible to accommodate them on the pull-out futon couch—please discuss this with the property manager.)
The house is stocked with the essentials you need to enjoy your stay. For the inside: soft sheets and towels, many pillows, firewood, plenty of cookware, plates and utensils, TV, broadband, a game console, books and DVDs, washer/dryer. For the outside: grill, pool toys, picnic and lounging furniture, hammock, and even a few sleds!
For those who like to ski, Belleayre Mountain is only 30 minutes away.

Can’t stress enough what a great location this house is in. Secluded yet close to town. Beautiful house. We saw a lot of wildlife. Can’t wait to return.
We had a wonderful stay in this adorable house in Woodstock. The weather prohibited us from enjoying the outdoor space, but it was warm and cozy inside with all the amenities we needed.
The fenced in yard was wonderful and the pool was toasty warm. The location was perfect. We were able to tour Woodstock, Sleepy Hollow and Bethel Woods Center for the Arts.
We had a great stay at this comfortable house dring the film fest. Super convenient location, nice accommodations and room to spread out and relax between and after films.
We had a wonderful time at our stay here in Woodstock. We had our two teens and dogs with us and it was perfect. The dogs were able to run and explore in the fenced in yard and we all swam in the pool which was nicely heated. The communication was also great. It was wonderful to be so close to town too!
This was my very best rental on VBRO…. It was clean and charming with a fabulous swimming pool!! My grandson age 17 and my daughter loved being here too!! Robin was very helpful….Thank You!!
Very chill, rustic, unfussy. Great pool surrounded by woods. Very dog friendly. Quiet and private but minutes from town and hiking trails. Great home base in summer weather.
Peaceful, so quiet.
Private, surrounded by trees on a hillside.
And convenient to “downtown” Woodstock.
The fully fenced in yard is great if you have a dog, and the pool is so relaxing. Our second time here, we love it!
Robyn was just a text away for any questions, and we loved this beautiful house with comfortable beds and the most delightful pool! Thank you for a restful stay for us and our elderly corgi, who had a festival of smells to enjoy in the fenced yard.
Location near woodstock was very nice, in the middle of the woods. Nice area. House is a bit old, upstairs bedroom was good, downstairs was a bit old. Great kitchen though and the pool was very nice and a good size.
Our family really enjoyed the house. It was a nice break from the city. The house was clean and comfortable. The area is very quiet and serene. The house was equipped with everything we needed to cook and clean up. The pool was really great. We loved that we were able to take our dogs as well. A nice detail that we loved was the fact that the host left two dog treats for our dogs.

Great house, will definitely come again
My husband and I played hookie and spent two weekdays here. It was really wonderful. We loved the house. It was so warm and comfortable. We could really relax here. We stayed in a lot, cooked mostly at the house, but we did explore Woodstock one of the days, it it was nice that it was so close.
The great room was, well, great, and we took full advantage of the fireplace. We both caught up on wome reading we'd been wanting to do. We will certainly be back.

A terrific location, close to town (even walkable if you don't mind a hill), but felt "away from it all." The home has character, is lovely, clean and comfortable, with very nice views and setting.
If I have one criticism it's that, for the summer season, the patios and pool deck could have been spruced up a bit: planters and pots with dirt but no flowers kind of scattered about, half-rusted iron cafe set, unused and discarded tools placed randomly, and un-swept bluestone patio all gave an air of neglect. But it was not enough to deter a very enjoyable stay.
This is definitely one of our newest finds. Loved this home and all the accommodations..great for relaxing stay. Loved pool and the fact it's heated is a plus. If I could add anything is that it would be nice to have lights by the pool for night swimming. We went out and bought some battery led lanterns and hung them around. Did not take much to make it what we wanted. The beds are great and sheets are soft. Kitchen is awesome loved range. So much so I am out buying the same one. You will not regret staying here.

What makes this property unique
Real privacy, but only about a mile to town. The fireplace in the great room is beautiful and welcoming during the cooler months; the saltwater pool is refreshing during the warmer months. The house is spacious and comfortable, a wonderful place to unwind and enjoy Woodstock and surrounding areas. Children and dogs can have a fabulous time, too, in the large fenced-in backyard.
