Perfect

This was a perfect location to use to be closer to my nephews sporting event. The location was as described and in perfect working order. Communication with the hosts was excellent. The neighborhood is very quiet and there is plenty to do in the area. I would consider staying here again if available and I was in the area.

Best booking I've ever had on VRBO!

We rented this place as a get together for a dinner after getting my wedding dress in Watertown and it was the best decision we made all weekend! From the ease of location the amazing kitchen facility and how open every room was for us to play games and all hang out It was absolutely perfect! Mark and June made the entire place so accommodating for every single person that I had including the two infants and all the adults that were there! Highly recommend staying here especially with how fantastic the communication was between the hosts and myself! 10 out of 5 stars!

Holiday jaunt

Stayed here as overflow lodging since my sister’s place can no longer accommodate everyone. It was clean and comfortable. Owners were helpful and friendly. There is a village ordinance against parking on the street at night; there were no signs, but a neighbor was kind enough to remind us.

Cozy Farmhouse

Our family of 4 (5 including our dog) enjoyed our stay at the Cozy Red Farmhouse. The house was even better in person! Clean and well kept, it also had everything we needed for the 8 days we were there. Kitchen well stocked. Hosts extremely hospitable and easy to communicate with. Fenced in yard was great for our dog. Short drive to food options and walking trails along the Black River. Definitely recommend!

The best property we have stayed at

We were in Carthage for 2 burials of family and so glad we found this. We didn’t want to stay in Watertown. We needed a place to relax and this was the perfect place. It was clean and well prepared. They also had a high chair, portable crib, and pictures of a cow and pig in the living room. The pictures entertained the baby quite often. She kept walking over to them and pointed (especially at the cow.)

Great visit

Communication with host was great. Very friendly and helpful. The house was perfect for our family as we visited with our soldier. It was well stocked with all the necessities plus a few bonuses that other places we've stayed in didn't have. The kitchen was well socked with items so mom could make meals for her family. The neighborhood was nice and so quiet. A park for the young ones was just up the road. Overall was a great place and experience. Will be looking at again when we come to visit our soldier.

Small Town Charm

We loved the property. The home is in a quiet neighborhood. It has a beautiful front porch and back deck, which was relaxing to hang out. The home is clean, well-maintained and spacious. It is very welcoming. There were special touches, i.e. "Items You Forgot to Pack" kit. The hosts were very helpful and responsive. It is located in a quiet small town. It's not too far from shopping and restaurants in nearby Watertown, or for heading to the zoo or Lake Ontario for a day on the beach.

Everything you need

We stayed for a full week and we had everything we could possibly need. Mark and June have made sure their home is equipped with anything and everything you could possibly need while away from home. The house is quite spacious and extremely comfortable. Everything is clean and well maintained. Having a washer and dryer there was a huge plus. Mark and June give you your privacy but are just a message away if you need anything. The neighborhood is super quiet and safe and it's not far from Watertown. If you're looking for a comfortable home to stay in that's spacious and has everything a home needs then this is the place to stay.

Absolutely perfect home

My family and I stayed at this location for the weekend as we were attending a wedding in the area. We couldn’t be more pleased with our stay. The hosts were gracious, very communicative up front, and responsive. The house was immaculate, the cleanest I’ve ever stayed in. We were greeted with snacks and waters upon arrival which was a delight. The house is spacious and is equipped with everything you could need. There is a fenced in back yard and deck with plenty of chairs and a grill. The bedrooms were large and the beds and bedding very comfortable. There are two full bathrooms which is fantastic for a large family like ours. We had a wonderful stay and recommend this to anyone coming to Carthage! Thank you again Mark and June!

Memorial Service

As a native of Carthage, it was nice to find a rental home within the village. The house was very nice, It could use additional seating in the living room and dressers in the non-primary bedrooms, but it was wonderful. The fenced yard in backyard was Nice for our dog. I will definitely look to stay here again in the future.

Cute Cozy Cottage

We are a retired couple visiting Daughter/ grandkids who live on base at Ft Drum. It was a great place for her to come to and bring her newborn and toddler during day, and us to stay with our pup at night. Cute town in walking distance and park! A glitch occurred At check in, not the fault of hosts! It was immediately handled with no issues! This place was super clean and had “everything” we needed and more to make our stay exceptional, and enjoy our family time together! It is an older house, with steep stairs, which was ok with us, but some may need to consider. We loved it, and will book in future trips!
