About this property

Brigadoon--3 BR Magical Farmhouse for a Romantic or Family Vacation

Named after Brigadoon, an enchanted place where life is simpler and easier, untouched by the worries of the modern world. You'll understand why when you stay in my peaceful, serene, fully renovated 1850s farmhouse, which is set far back from the main road leading to and from Woodstock, NY. The best of all worlds, it's about 2 minutes from the center of town, and right on the bus route from NYC. But sitting on the front porch overlooking a giant secluded meadow, you can enjoy total privacy from noise and neighbors, and have a complete relaxing country experience. It's across the street from the Dixon Roadside trendy restaurant and bar, a 5-minute walk to gourmet streamside dining at the Bear Cantina, and a 5-minute walk to Sunfrost Farms vegetable market and The Cub Market, where you can also enjoy breakfast and The New York Times. You can walk to the Bear Complex to enjoy Nancy's Ice Cream, world-class musicians at the famous Bearsville Theatre, and jazz brunches outside on Sundays. This house is perfect for skiers (Hunter, Belleayre, and Windham nearby), festival goers (Film Festival, Bookfest, Comedy Festival, Luthiers, Festival of the Voice, etc.), music lovers or recording groups, and families looking for a charming Woodstock getaway or couples seeking a total romantic country experience. The house is warm in winter, cool in summer, and full of light and open space. It's uncluttered, classic wood and white, and supremely serene. Visitors often spot deer, the occasional black bear, foxes, turkeys, and hawks in the nearby woods and meadow while sipping a cocktail at dusk on the front porch. Amenities include Weber gas bbq grill, outdoor fireplace for marshmallow roasting, a bluestone patio with outdoor dining, a giant clawfoot bathtub, and washer/dryer. The fully equipped kitchen has everything you could want, from a pizza stone to a cake decorating kit, Nespresso machine to a Cuisineart. There is a gas fireplace, central air-conditioning, business center with printer, free wifi, cable TV with Showtime and HBO, indoor games, outdoor lawn games, and a sprinkler for little ones' summer fun. If my house doesn't have it, just ask and I'll get it for you.

Fabulous House!
The house was amazing. The space was well maintained and the hot tub was glorious! We were hoping for a lovely restful, fun month long vacation and Brigadoon delivered. Gail was a great host---very responsive, warm and attentive. We really appreciated the new gas grill----just the extra touch you can only hope for in a host!!! I would highly recommend this house and I will definitely come back!!!

Sweet Country Getaway for a Family of 5
We had a marvelous month-long sojourn at the remarkable Brigadoon. We were 4 adults and one child, several of us working from home. We loved being minutes from downtown Woodstock, as well as within walking distance of a wonderful farm stand. Our 4-year old spent many afternoons playing ball in the large meadow, well maintained thanks to an efficient landscaping team. We loved watching the turkey and deer families grazing by, and the woodchucks scurrying, all from a cozy porch swing. The house is in fabulous condition, with all the modern conveniences, all within the solid bones of an old farm house. Gail is a generous and thoughtful host; whenever we had a question or a request, she would zip over in minutes. The kitchen has ample counter space for preparing family meals; and plenty of room for multiple chefs to work simultaneously. We enjoyed several cool nights out by the fire pit. We can’t wait to be back.

Shangri La
We were so happy and comfortable here - and felt so cared for by the truly special owner! Everything we could possibly need was in the house and if it wasn't, Gail made sure to provide it within a day. The house is aptly named "Brigadoon" but we often referred to it as "Shangri La".

Cozy Cabin Stay
Brigadoon made for an idyllic weekend getaway. The house was well stocked with everything from games to puzzles to everything we needed for homemade pizza night. Gail was very helpful and communicative throughout the stay.

Lovely stay!
My family and I had a lovely stay over the thanksgiving weekend. Gail was a wonderful host and the house was clean, spacious and comfortable. Also a very close distance to town and restaurants. The views from the property were beautiful and My kids loved watching the deer from the bedrooms. We would definitely return!
