Peaceful Stay

I booked the house for a girls' weekend in the Hudson River Valley. The property is secluded and private, as described, with lovely views from the decks. The clean, spacious, light-filled house worked well for our group of four people and a small dog. We visited Olana and Hudson, each about 30-minutes away, drove into Hillsdale, a 10-minute drive away, for groceries and meals. Accessing the property requires a short stretch of steep, unpaved road and gravel walkway to the house. The latter may be difficult for those with limited mobility.

Beautiful winter escape

We had a lovely holiday in this truly beautiful dream home. Everything promised in the VRBO advertisement was a reality - from the fireplace, the 4 bedrooms, the ping pong table, the kitchen and the glorious view. We even had a dusting of snow making the trees glisten. Absolutely lovely. Our host was most attentive as well—checking in with us to be sure we understood the heating units and the fireplace. We really had an ideal stay!

So peaceful

My family and I stayed for a nearby wedding and enjoyed our stay very much. Beautiful property and the house was clean and cozy. Sound does travel, as others mentioned , but no big deal unless you have especially noisy early risers. Kitchen was well equipped and the house had everything we needed! We would stay again.
