Lovely Cottage That Is Completely New With All The Luxuries You Would Want!

This lovely cottage, Golden Glen, is a gem for relaxation and quiet in a perfect setting of serenity. It sets on the edge of 2200 acres of NY State Forest and lush woods. The back looks over a ravine with a stream, complete with a small waterfall. The inside is deluxe with a beautiful living area and fully equipped kitchen, 2 comfortable bedrooms decorated beautifully and all of the amenities of home. The living room is all part of the great room which includes the kitchen and dining area. There is a large gas stone fireplace for cozy evenings. The stones were all collected from the stream and surrounding woods.
The bathrooms are spacious and feature walk in tiled showers. Then there are the amazing porches!! The favorite spot of everyone is the screened in porch that runs the entire length of the back of the cottage. It is comfortable and the setting is completely surrounded by nature. There is even a hawk that has made her nest in the top of a tree near the house!! She has been there for a couple of years. There is a deck off of the upstairs bedroom that is a great place to star gaze on a warm night. The washer and dryer completes the efforts of the owner to make this a true home away from home.

Golden Glen is only 15 minutes from the quaint ski town of Ellicottville, NY. The town has great restaurants and small shops and Holiday Valley Ski Resort offers year round activities. From skiing and winter activities to summer golf and zip lining for the more adventurous.
Bring your bicycles in the summer or your cross country skis or snowshoes in the winter or your hiking boots year round, as the stare forest is full of groomed trails. Or bring your books and just relax and enjoy your surroundings.

We are only 12 minutes from Ellicottville, New York which is a quaint little ski and resort town. You can ski in the winter or golf in the summer. There are world class restaurants for fine dining and wonderful shopping.

It is the perfect place for solitude or a romantic getaway. I hope you will come and enjoy this special place on Golden Hill!!

Golden Glen is pet friendly. Just check the Pet Fee box when you book this amazing cottage in a magical setting!!

Weekend Escape
This was such a peaceful and comfortable place to stay for family weekend getaway. Close enough to the restaurants and activities in Ellicottville, yet far enough to check out for awhile in beautiful surroundings, both inside and outside the cabin.

Comfort abounds!
Absolutely delightful! This charming cottage is a hidden gem, perfectly secluded yet incredibly inviting. Nestled off the beaten path, it offers a serene escape and cozy, elegant decor. Every detail has been thoughtfully considered, from the well-stocked kitchen (utensils & crockery) to the comfortable furnishings. The peaceful surroundings and the gentle sounds of nature (softly running creek sounds and birds) create an idyllic retreat especially for a writer that doesn’t want distractions. If you're looking for a quiet, beautiful getaway, this is the place to be. Highly recommended!

Great quiet getaway
Bette was such a great host and allowed us to change our reservation due to a family situation. The cabin was classy and stylish but sooooo quiet and wirh nothing but nature around. The back porch was great for reading and the upstairs deck had the best stargazing. We loved and needed the getaway! Highly recommend!

Perfect Retreat
The house is comfortable and inviting, even prettier than the pictures, and perfectly tucked away in a spot that felt secluded yet near Ellicottville et al. It was a wonderful week of relaxing on the screened in porch and soaking up the sun on the roof deck. Looking forward to returning!

A peaceful getaway
It was so peaceful and relaxing at this cottage. We enjoyed star gazing from the roof top deck , and taking naps on the screened in porch . The cottage was very clean and completely rebuilt based on the before and after photos we saw at the cottage - very impressive. The towns of Cuba, Olean and Ellicottville were a quick drive away and fun to visit . Highly recommend.

A slice of paradise
I had to be in the Ellicotville area for work and we found this cute cabin to stay through VRBO. We couldn't have imagined how amazing this cabin would be. The communication with the owners was easy. Both Madeline and Bette were very helpful and polite. The view from the screened in porch into the state forest is so relaxing. The interior of the cabin is beautiful and about as relaxing as the porch. We couldn't decide whether to sit inside or outside. The location is close to town yet far enough away to enjoy the peace and quiet of nature. My family and I thank you for letting us stay at your facility. Truly a slice of paradise.

Cloudy eclipse but wonderful weekend and property
This was a great place to stay with two adult couples. Two bedroom two bath means privacy for everyone. The location was great. Wish we had more time to spend outdoors hiking in the state park. I’d like to come back in the summer to sleep on the screened in porch and listen to the waterfalls. Travel was made all that much easier because we were able to bring our furry friend.

Amazing getaway!
We stayed here for 2 nights to spend a weekend snowboarding at Holiday Valley. Perfect location close to Ellicotville and it was so nice to have a clean, warm, and peaceful spot to return to after being at the mountain. The house was adorable and surprisingly spacious! Very clearly a well-loved and taken care of home, it was bright and clean. Bette was a wonderful host! Would definitely love to stay here again in the future!

Mid-Winter getaway.
Oh gosh! We had so much fun. In our group, it was my wife and me, my brother and his wife, and my sister and her husband. Ages ranged from 50 to 70. The cottage was exactly as pictured. It was very clean and well decorated. We could appreciate the interior decor, including many older artifacts. The beds were comfortable, the dining table was perfect for our evening game sessions, the kitchen was well stocked with all the cooking utensils we needed. Not everyone is an outdoor type, but a few of us are. We took a trip to Allegany State Park for a nice hike one day, a trip to the Seneca Casino, and one day we took a walk " around the block" which was actually about a 4 mile hike. Just a heads up, it seemed like that walk was uphill the entire way. I'm not sure if it was because we were there in the dead of winter, but the surroundings were so peaceful. I would definitely recommend this cottage to anyone who enjoys the great outdoors.

This is the perfect little getaway for a long ski trip. Close enough to the slopes but far enough away to enjoy a quiet evening away from it all.

Our family loved staying at Bette's place. She was super responsive and the cabin was incredibly comfortable. The gas fire place and screened in porch were highlights. It is close to Ellicottville and just yards from a park.

A Piece of Heaven
My Husband and I will definitely be back to this beautiful piece of Heaven! Bette is an amazing and caring person. She went above and beyond to make our stay one of the most memorable vacation. We absolutely loved the screened in porch and the top deck! We had family both weekends come and visit from Canada , and they were in awe about the cottage and the surroundings. We will always have beautiful memories of our trip and especially Bette who non stop works to please everyone! We’re looking forward to seeing her again! Thank you again Bette for making our trip a memorable experience! Until the next time my Friend.. Take care and God Bess❤️

Very nice cabin. Great location.
The cabin was very clean. Very nice with all the amenities we expected. It is on a quiet road and provides plenty of privacy. The back porch is great for quiet afternoons in the shade. Even though it was July, the temperatures during the day stayed in the 70s and there was usually a cool breeze. Very close to the Allegheny National forest so we did lots of hiking and other outdoor activities. Bette did a great job of preparing the cabin and helping us get checked in. No complaints.

Yes pick this one…
The drive takes you to a secluded but populated area, the house is warm, inviting, and positively comforting. We had a great weekend stay, and enjoyed the neighboring towns. We could t wait to return to the house, if you are looking to relax this is one. Thanks Bette, excellent welcome and preparations! We hope to visit again soon.
