We spent two months at this property on Sleepy Hollow Lake and found it to be a peaceful and scenic retreat. The lake itself was the highlight-beautiful views, and well-stocked with kayaks and paddle boards. The home was comfortable for long stays. While the kitchen was small and lacked pantry space, we were not permitted to use the pantry which is necessary for longer stays. The kitchen was adequately stocked with necessary utensils but needs additional lighting. There was some deferred maintenance, but nothing that significantly impacted our stay. One drawback was no trash pickup. We were required to drive about 10 minutes to dispose of trash and garbage at the local dump using specific yellow bags. During the final two weeks, we experienced a yellow jacket issue inside the home. The hosts were responsive and tried to help, but resolving it would have required us to vacate, which wasn't feasible. We didn't feel a strong connection to the town of Athens itself, which lacked the charm of nearby communities. However, we enjoyed the local farmers markets, travelling to Hudson, and golfing at Windham Country Club. One additional treat for us was having our grandchildren visit-plenty of space and activities to keep everyone engaged.

We went for a long weekend to celebrate a family birthday. The house was the perfect size for us and the weather was still warm enough for us to enjoy being outdoors.
We hope to return in the summer!

We did love use the kayaks and the pools and beach. There were wasps near the dock which spooked the boys 6 and 8.

We absolutely loved our stay at Catherine and Steven’s beautiful lake house. This is not your average run-of-the-mill vacation rental. A stay here is more like visiting a close friend or family member. Every room in this gorgeous house is impeccably and tastefully decorated. All the living spaces are perfect for a family gathering. The kitchen is the center of activity and is fully equipped with everything you might need. In addition, the outdoor areas have beautiful views of the lake and the surrounding hills. And even on a rainy day, we found a place to gather the family in the basement living area, with a lovely outside covered deck. We can’t wait to return!
