Like a dream
We had a wonderful stay in this secluded yet well located house. The house is comfortable and stylish. The extras - especially the trampoline, pool table and ping pong table - were hits with the kids. Definitely as advertised and would come again.

Lovely, Secluded Stay in Saugerties
My family and I enjoyed our stay in this lovely, well equipped home. It was very family friendly. It had sufficient activities for two children and an infant, and was well suited to our preferences for privacy in the beautiful nature that surrounded us. Sylvia was very responsive and helpful both before and during our stay. We would definitely return.

PEACEFUL RETREAT!
My husband, son, dog and I travel to the Catskills a few times a year and this is by far one of the best homes we have stayed in. Sylvia was very nice and responsive to questions. The house is GORGEOUS! Very clean, looks newly renovated and beautifully decorated. The King bed (the only one we used) felt like sleeping in a hotel bed. The location is entirely private and the only noise you can hear are peepers and owls at night and the deer trotting through the woods (coming from the NYC suburbs, we are always looking for a peaceful getaway and this did not disappoint). The pool was very clean and the fenced-in yard was a huge bonus for our dog. The game room/garage was awesome! It rained our last day and we spent it inside playing ping pong and pool while our son loved the motorized toddler car. The deck upstairs gives gorgeous views of the woods surrounding the house. I could go on... it was much better than expected and we are grateful to Sylvia and her family for sharing their home with us.

It was a pleasure to host Louisa and her family. Louisa was easy to communicate with, was patient and understanding when a couple of unexpected matters came up upon arrival. She took great care of my home and kept everything in place. I highly recommend Louisa and her family as guests.

Relaxing weekend in the catskills
We are regular visitors to the Saugerties and Woodstock area and this was definitely our favorite house so far! The pool was amazing and the house felt cozy, welcoming and was great for children. There were so many great things about the house, from the beautifully decorated rooms to the amazing activities they had for the kids. The kitchen was also amazing and allowed us to cook great meals! The hosts were extremely attentive to all of our needs, if you are looking for a great place to stay with family and friends, we highly recommend this house!

Beautiful attention to detail!
The owners of this property thought of everything. Pool floats for adults and even a toddler, a fun trampoline and swing set, well stocked kitchen with everything we needed, beautiful fresh smelling towels and linens, and wonderful games and books. The house was very comfortable and the property very private and beautiful.

Beautifully appointed home with a great pool on a secluded, well-maintained large property in the middle of the best the Catskills has to offer. Great hosts, super responsive and friendly. Kids had a blast playing foosball, ping pong and pool. Pet friendly is a plus! Would gladly repeat

Just Book It!
We had a really nice 3 day mid-week stay at this amazing house in Saugerties. Lots of good stuff! Pool was very relaxing :-) Outdoor area on the deck with the grill was perfect! There's even stuff we saved for next time, like the trampoline, the billiard table, table games. A really nice getaway!

WONDERFUL WEEKEND
Beautiful immaculate home in a serene setting. Plenty of room for Benny to run around in huge fenced in yard surrounded by woods. Sylvia is a great host. Very attentive, and had a chilled bottle of wine waiting for us. Coming back for a whole week this summer so that we can enjoy the private pool.

Idyllic and just an hour and a half from NYC
This place was great from the open and airy home, to the beautiful outdoors, and all the appointments. The host was meticulous about everything (in a good way). One of the special touches was the way she made us feel very much at home, by sharing the “good glasses and plates” and leaving games, toys and crafts for us to enjoy.

Patti was warm and friendly from the get go that I knew she would be easy to communicate with. Everything was in its place, even after 6 weeks occupancy, and she was respectful of my home. I would be happy to host Patti again and would recommend her as a guest.

Great family weekend
The house fulfilled its promise and provided everything we rented it for. Not only is it beautifully designed it is also comfortable and welcoming. Everyone enjoyed the swimming pool and had a fun relaxing time for the duration of our stay. There are an endless amount of things to do for all age groups. Sylvia was always lovely and available if and when we had a question. I highly recommended this place to anyone who wants to enjoy the quiet of nature under the best conditions.

Warm Saugerties Home
We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful Saugerties home. Sylvia is attentive & easy to communicate with. The house is spacious and well stocked & offers plenty to keep the kids busy. It comfortably slept the 7 of us. The pool & trampoline were definitely a bonus. The house is conveniently located to nice restaurants & charming towns. Kaaterskill Falls was an enjoyable hike for all skill levels. Would highly recommend.
