Minutes away from pick your-own orchards, restaurants, art centers, bike paths, and trails. 30 min drive to zipline/ski resorts. Only 2.2 hrs from NYC, 30 mins from Albany.

Our 4 BR, 3.5 bath rural getaway is a cherished home that we are happy to share with other conscientious families.

MAIN LIVING AREAS:
A bright, open living room overlooking verdant grounds welcomes you. You’ll find separate sitting areas for TV, reading, or group activities like puzzles, cards, Monopoly, chess, Scrabble, etc. Bluetooth speakers are available to stream your own music, enjoy the use of our turntable, or enjoy a night of karaoke! Powder room on 1st floor. Dining table seats 8.

KITCHEN
We enjoy preparing meals in the chef’s kitchen with a large island that seats 6 and a separate window seating nook that everyone just gravitates towards. They say the kitchen is the heart of the home, and this kitchen is easy to love! Outdoor meal set up is easy with direct access to the deck.

Planning a celebratory meal during your stay? Let us know in advance and we can refer you to a private chef who can provide an exceptional at-home experience with dishes tailored to your preferences and even take care of tidying up the kitchen to give you more time to relax and enjoy. (Cost of private chef services are handled separately and directly between guest and chef.)

2nd FLOOR:
4 bedrooms, 2 full baths (En suite Master bath features a shower and a jetted tub), and laundry/workroom occupy the 2nd floor. 3 rooms feature comfortable chairs and desks that facilitate remote working.

BASEMENT:
Serious ping-pong matches have been had in the basement! A full bath with walk-out access to the deck and pool area allow for easy clean up after a swim.

OUTDOOR SPACE:
Enjoy the rural views from the open deck while enjoying meals on the outdoor dining area, or simply nature watch. You may see small painted turtles peeking through the 3/4-acre pond surface, white egrets, herons, ducks, and geese. Relax or have a good workout in the 40-ft in-ground pool (open from Memorial Day weekend through Sept.) and replenish with food you can prepare at the Tiki bar with a gas grill. We invite guests to walk along the low grass to enjoy the open grounds with a succession of blooms and a wildflower meadow in progress. Please note there is no swimming allowed in the pond and children must be supervised.

For security purposes, we use outdoor surveillance cameras to monitor the front door, basement door, car port, pond, and pool area.

We are constantly sprucing up our home and continue to add more furnishings and amenities. Please don't hesitate to contact us with any questions!
