Short stay
The house was impeccably designed and had everything visitors would need. And the view off the front porch was beautiful. It was truly impressive and very relaxing. One small suggestion would be to make the address at the gate more obvious, instead of having it on a tree next to the gate.

Lovely, Serene, Comfortable, Eco-friendly House
We were a group of 5 adult family members having a family reunion. We enjoyed being in this beautiful setting in the midst of a large natural property including a meadow, pond, wetlands and woods. The house is very comfortable and well equipped, with beautiful and fun decor. It's close to many quaint towns and interesting cultural attractions. The owner was very prompt and helpful in his communications. We highly recommend this house!

Huge property, wonderful view, and stargazing in the hot tub was great. Located just a short ride to Woodstock, restaurants, grocery store, etc. House was clean and well stocked. We were a party of 9 and everyone had a wonderful time. Would definitely come back again.

Fabulous Time
Steve’s home is amazing, well maintained and chock full of cool extras that he’s gracious enough to share with guests. One of my sons played the baby grand in the living room every day. Steve’s CD collection really brought me back and there are some gems I haven’t thought to listen to in a long time. The house is sufficiently remote to seem like you’re “off the grid” yet a quick ride to Woodstock or Saugerties. Steve’s communication was great including instructions for all the appliances, stereo, etc. This was a great family get away!

Great time
A wonderful time and everything we wanted when we booked the rental. The jam space was incredible and so nice to have it separate from the main house. The views were spectacular, no other way to describe it. The Hi-Fi stereo was was the cleanest sound I have heard outside of actually being in a studio. The entire crew enjoyed our stay and can't wait for our return visit. If you love playing and listening to music, this is a must.

Stunning Property
The house and property are as beautiful in person as in the photos. Stephen replied to my questions with lightening speed. One note is that the property is a little tricky to find since the house is off the main road (but the location is part of what makes it great) so I suggest arriving before dark. If you’re lucky you’ll spot deer as you arrive like we did!

Woodstock Fall Trip
Location is central but also secluded which makes for fun experience in the mountains but close to downtown. Views all hours of the day are amazing - best i've seen at any rental in area and I've been renting homes around there for well over 10 years. Nice having bathrooms for each bedroom. My group and I loved the different fireplaces across the property. Guest house made for part of a fun night with music....honestly just great time all around and perfect vacation spot. I've never seen such clear night skies and if anything was of question, Stephen gave responses extremely quickly. Much appreciated.

Property is absolutely beautiful! The views from the deck are gorgeous. The pictures almost don’t do it justice. Only thing I would note is the driveway is tricky so I would advise to have an SUV or vehicle that does well in loose gravel. Host was great at helping us quickly with any issues we had.

Fabulous house in peaceful setting
Beautiful house, well stocked. Sitting on the patio overlooking the mountain and watching the wildlife was very peaceful. House is remote but close enough to enjoy Ashoka Rail trail and Kaaterskill Falls. Kitchen was a delight to cook in. Grand piano was played everyday by my daughter-in-law and the sound was amazing. We highly recommend this house.

Beautiful home and spectacular view!
Three generations of my family had a wonderful stay at this property. As soon as we pulled into the driveway we were impressed and were delighted when we walked into the house. The hot tub was sparkling clean and it was a real joy looking out over the mountains. There was ample room for the six of us to spread out and the musician in the family really enjoyed the studio. Only minor change that could be made would be new pillows. We hated to leave and highly recommend this spectacular spot of the beautiful Catskills.

A Special Place
Lovely house and view of Overlook Mountain. Very peaceful and quiet. The house is well suited for family groups who like to be together. Great open space for kitchen, living room, eat in kitchen. High end bathrooms with lovely tiles throughout. Great cooks kitchen. Blue stone deck and view of Overlook Mountain is stunning. Very relaxing. Closer to Woodstock than Suagerties but half hour from great trails/hiking. Enjoyed jacuzzi. Note that home does not come with use of washer/drier. Owner is very easy to reach and responsive. Love to return to this property. I don't say this often...
