Perfect weekend escape from NYC!

This was a wonderful cabin tucked away on the owner's property. My girlfriend and I wanted to leave NYC for the weekend, and it was a quick 2 1/2 hr drive away. The cabin was SO CLEAN. Fran does a wonderful job. There is everything you need, kitchen utensils, bath towels, plenty of pillows and blankets. It was great to be in the woods, we saw deer on the property a couple of times. There is a beautiful river that runs behind the cabin and it has two waterfalls that are within walking distance. We went to Hudson a few times during our stay, it is only a 15 min drive away and there is plenty to do--good food at baba louie's, awesome bar/bookstore called the spotty dog, and fun dancing at night at the half moon. We plan to come back in the summer time and bring friends!

wonderful time away from the city
Submitted: February 8, 2013

My roommates and I decided to take a quick weekend vacation out of Brooklyn and were so lucky to find Fran and Peter's cabin to stay in. The cabin itself had everything you could possibly need, lots of room for guests to sleep, a really nice porch on the back overlooking the woods and a creek, and overall contributed immensely to our nice trip north. Fran and Peter were very welcoming and I would highly recommend a vacation to stay in their cabins. We all hope to be back sometime in the Spring or Summer to enjoy other activities in the area!

Immaculate and well-appointed, this cabin had lots of charm on the outside but was new and clean on the inside. All the appliances you would expect in a modern home including Satellite TV. Beds were were very comfortable and the layout accommodated four single people easily.

The cabin was immaculate! The landscape was beautiful. We saw deer, played in the creek with our 4 year old, marveled at the waterfall, cooked out on the grill, went for walks with the dog, and swam at the nearby Lake Taghkanic Park.
Fran was fantastic -- we knew she was there for us, but she was not at all intrusive.
I just can't say enough great things about this place. Thank you!

The cottage at An
Submitted: February 29, 2012
Stayed: February 2012
We were only able to stay two nights, but we totally enjoyed the cottage. It was clean, comfortable and very cozy. The owners provided everthing we needed... comfortable beds, big fluffy towels, plenty of great movies to watch and lots of peace and quiet. My teenage son really liked the upstairs loft and spiral staircase. I look forward to visiting in the summertime and try our hand at fishing. I'm sure it's lovely that time of year. About the other cottage...it's far enough away that even if someone had been staying there (which there wasn't), it would not have mattered one bit. You really had the feeling of being away from it all, in a secluded, woodland setting. What a wonderful cottage!

Cottage A was a lovely woodsy retreat for us two people and two dogs. All four of us loved traipsing around the nearby streams and waterfalls, hiking trails and the state park (a drivable distance away). The cottage itself was clean and cozy, and the kitchen was fully stocked with cookware and utensils. We slept and ate very well. Fran was very helpful and accommodating, with advice on what to do and where to go. Would absolutely stay here again!

This cabin was perfect for a natural and quiet get-away. The setting is ideal, with a waterfall and stream flowing through the heavily wooded property. The cabin is cozy, comfortable and exceptionally clean! Lots of deer come to visit. The owners are friendly and very easy to work with. We look forward to a return visit.

Lovely Summer Weekend
Submitted: August 10, 2011

This is a great little cottage in the woods, behind a beautiful farmstead. It was IMMACULATELY clean and well appointed with sheets/blankets/towels, etc., as well as a helpful book of tips by the owner about the surrounding area.
The location is great as well - about 10mins away from the lake and 20-30 from Hudson, where we visited the Saturday farmer's market. (We also recommend the short drive to Hernondale Farm -- off 82 on Wiltsie Bridge Rd -- for some fantastically fresh, organic, grass-fed local steaks and chicken that we brought back and cooked on the grill.)
The one thing about the cabin to be aware of: there are actually 2 cabins right next to each other (less than 100 yards). We were lucky that no one was staying in the 2nd cabin when we were there. If they had been, I don't think it would have had the same lovely, isolated, woodsy feel.
Still, all in all, it was a great visit!

Owner's Response: In response to the two cabins next to each other, to date I have not had two different families renting at the same time, I do my best to schedule my guests so this does not happen, and if it does my cabins have their own yard and own driveway and alot of land to still have a relaxing and peaceful vacation.

My husband, six month old baby, our dog and I stayed in the cabin for a Holiday Weekend. Everything was immaculately clean, and very well thought out. We really felt we had everything we needed and more. Our dog l(pug) loved the grounds and just wanted to run around. We saw deer every morning and enjoy nature. Fran was really nice and helpful. Highly recommend and hope to be back soon. Thank you,

I have to say that the cabin absolutely exceeded my expectations. It was clean, cozy, and very well maintained. Fran and Peter literally had everything you can think of which was great for preparing meals and all (thanks a bunch!). It really was so no nice being in the middle of nowhere, which made for a great little weekend getaway with my boyfriend. I hope we can return back sometime soon!
