We had an amazing stay. The house was clean and very spacious. Close to the beach and lots places to explore nearby. We loved watching the horses at different times throughout the day. We look forward to staying again.

Loved the farm life environment for the kids and the dog. Great place for casual family time and a half hour drive to Lake George. We will definitely book again next year.
6.0 / 10.0Average·Aug 2022
Pros- nice home, beautiful property, nice bedrooms, hosts 10, good games available to play, kitchen well-stocked. Cons- the kitchen was infested with mice, and also a squirrel. Mouse droppings were all over the kitchen. I caught 4 mice in just a few days with traps. Electronic mouse deterrents were in place, but were ineffective.
