The home is lovely, location takes a little getting use to, the drive. Enjoyed morning sitting at the table with a cup of coffee looking at the mountain peaks.

The cottage is very nicely remodeled and in a beautiful area of Hunter Mountain. The inside was immaculate and exactly as described and pictured. The cottage had nice touches like linens, towels, and toiletries provided. We stayed for the weekend to attend a family wedding in nearby Saugerties. There were a few small inconveniences that I will mention because I do read reviews before I rent places and thought it might be helpful. The property has 3 wall air conditioners but we couldn’t get the temperature below 75. Thankfully it cooled down in the evening so we could open the windows. The main bathroom door would not latch when you tried to close it. I just held it closed with my hand when I used it. The inside was very well maintained but the outside lawn was very high when we arrived. If we had wanted to use the fire pit, we would’ve been disappointed because you would’ve had to walk through high grass and weeds to get to it. There was heavy rain the week before we came so the water was slightly brown due to it being a private well. I bought spring water for coffee and drinking. Lastly, I went to make breakfast and there was only one small frying pan. All the other pots and dishes seemed plentiful, but you will need to bring your own frying pan. Overall, it was a very nice property!

I had a wonderful weekend stay at this lovely cabin! It is beautiful and cozy, all necessities provided. The check in and check out processes were easy, the guest contact was easy to contact and pleasant to speak with. The views are gorgeous, and the neighbors are so kind. Loved being here and definitely plan to come back! Will tell all my friends! Thank you!
6 / 10Average·Sep 2024
Property was attractive and convenient for our purposes, as described. Clean except for bathmats. Good kitchen and laundry facilities. 2 problems: heat did not work and lack of cell service made contacting manager difficult because she did not respond to emails (WiFi was fine). Also VRBO did not allow us to access check-out instructions 15 minutes before the required checkout time, said we had completed the trip.
