Spacious 4-bedroom house with outdoor entertainment spaces in charming Colden

I grew up in Buffalo but now live on the other side of the state. However, most of my family is still in western New York. This property was the perfect place for my children, grandchildren & I to stay while visiting the area. The house was obviously built many years ago but there have been many improvements. We loved the open shelves with lighting under them in the kitchen. Except for the bathtub in the downstairs bathroom – an antique one – the bathrooms are updated. The upstairs bathroom has a fabulous walk in shower. My 2 grandchildren were very comfortable in the “kids” room. There are air conditioners in all of the bedrooms & the upstairs ones were used because it was quite warm when we were there. I was happy in a downstairs bedroom with an open window & the ceiling fan running.We didn’t spend much time inside. However, when inside, the large windows allow you to stay connected to the outdoors. The grounds are spacious & you feel like you are in your own world up the hill & in the woods. There's lots of wildlife to observe.The most outstanding feature of this property is the pavilion. We had a family reunion while there & the pavilion was ideal. It has electricity, a sound system & an under counter refrigerator plus a giant table as well as a smaller one. There is also a large enclosed fire pit. And with the expanse of grass, we were able to spread out & set up lawn games with room to spare. I can't imagine a better setting for a gathering.

The house was unique - an old farmhouse that had some updates. The property and house were a perfect retreat to return to at the end of the day's adventures!

Lovely home with plenty of space and everything we needed, from firewood to kitchen supplies. When we weren’t skiing, we chose to return to the comfort of the house rather than dining out. We were able to enjoy all our meals together and play games by the fire. Our hosts responded quickly to our needs, making sure the driveway was plowed after it snowed. A perfect spot for a family trip!

This was our second year staying at this beautiful home! Our family enjoyed the beautiful scenery and cozy atmosphere that this home brings. Our grandchildren enjoyed the outdoor playground complete with tire swing, while the older family members cozied up by the fireplace! The beds were extremely comfortable with each bedroom zoned for individual comfort. The layout of this home is perfect for family gatherings. We can’t wait to return next year!
