We arrived in the evening and the house had lights outside which looked very festive. The inside was festive as well! The house was very clean, well organized, had everything you could need, comfortable beds, and an amazing hot tub! We thoroughly enjoy our stay! It snowed a couple days and the surroundings were absolutely beautiful. And sitting in a hot tub while it is snowing is a must do! So much fun! Thank you Anita for letting us stay at your place!

You Can’t Ask For More!
We had no doubt…this is the most fully equipped, clean, organized and blissful rental ever. You like to cook at home? Anita has what you need here. Read? Tons of local volumes. Play a game. You’re covered. Hike? Plenty of suggestions and places. BBQ. Hot tub right on the back deck, feet from the door? Yup. TV with all the apps…seating you’ll love getting comfy on…wine and cheese on the front porch? A welcome message just for you awaits. Thank you Anita SO much.

Great Stay for a Sisters-Only Weekend!!
My sister and I met up at this amazing property to enjoy a sisters-only weekend. We went to Menla Resort and spent a day at their Dewa Spa, which is about 45 minutes from the property. We spent the rest of the weekend enjoying the area and relaxing in the hot tub!
The house is immaculate. It is the cleanest home rental I've ever experienced, and I rent homes fairly often.
The house is beautifully decorated. It has all the comforts of home. Everything is top notch! The beds are super comfortable with the Sleep Number feature. The living room furniture was so comfortable. The linens are good quality. The deck is amazing to just sit and relax on. The hot tub was clean and so comfortable.
We had an issue and Anita got back to me immediately and it was resolved.
The location is great. We went to Saugerties one night which was about a 12-minute drive, and then to Woodstock the next day, and that was about a 15-minute drive. So many restaurants and shops to enjoy in both towns!
We hope to stay at this property again in the future.
Thank you again, Anita and Steven. We had a wonderful weekend at your beautiful home!

Great cottage
Wow! Wonderful, comfortable, super clean, well decorated home. Once outside you can hear the local running stream. So peaceful.
Eat at restaurant Red Onion, great food but reservation needed.
Must visit and experience Olana and Opus 40. Opus 40 particularly beautiful and inspiring, America’s Stonehenge. Their guided tours at both locations are totally worth it.
Only small complaint is there is no cable TV at the cottage. Couldn’t watch baseball playoffs but I lived!

This easy access rental was everything expected by title. Hot tub is private, all amenities new. Good food and Saturday night live music at restaurant around corner and quick access to hiking /skiing trails and Woodstock make it “a find” for couples.

We love this house!
This was our second stay at “our little house in Palenville” as we have fondly named it. My husband, daughter and I needed a place to stay on our way to our camping trip, just for one night.
Anita was gracious and flexible and allowed us to rent for the night last minute. We were so thankful and so loved being here again.
We cooked dinner and then because the rain stopped we were able to hang out in the hot tub! Then just relax in the house. The beds are so comfortable. Everything we needed was there to make our overnight stay like our second home.
We highly recommend this lovely craftsman cottage and will be back again and again!
