Mountainside respite

From the moment we walked into this house , we were wowed. The incredible picturesque views that streamed in through all the wi dies in the house made us feel like we were enveloped by nature. We were able to enjoy sunsets and sunrises from the panoramic windows and the house itself was exceptionally clean, had quality appliances and everything g we would need to prepare meals. Karen and Larry, our hoses, were extremely responsive and accommodating. There were beautiful roses, snacks and bottled water and coffee and tea to welcome us and the linens and beds were of superior quality and beds very comfortable. It is a very spacious and comfortable house and the photos do not do it justice. We enjoyed the house so much that we booked t fir June before we left I can t say enough about this lspecracular property We have stayed in several properties throughout the years but none could compare to this one We were very lucky to have found such a transporting get away Rosemarie and Joe and Friends

Charming Mountain Retreat

This is our second year staying with at Karen and Larry’s property and it did not disappoint. They are incredible hosts and their home is conveniently located near the Lime Rock Track (less than 3 miles). It’s a beautiful and peaceful setting and extremely comfortable home. We highly recommend.

Absolutely Wonderful!

I have been renting houses for nearly 20 years to celebrate the Thanksgiving holiday. This house by far exceeded all of my expectations. The house was well suited to handle a large holiday meal, including my choice of china supplied by our gracious hosts. This house is very well equipped and nicely appointed. The icing on the cake is the stunning panoramic mountain views. In addition, Larry and Karen, our hosts, were extremely responsive and accommodating, which I truly appreciated. We enjoyed every minute of our stay. I would definitely consider renting this house again in the future.

Beautiful view + wildlife

The photos online do not do it justice. The deck and view are incredible especially at sunset. We only had one good sunset unfortunately as rain clouds rolled in on our second evening / night. Lots of deer roaming, a few bats, a frog and a black squirrel were also spotted around too. Overall a beautiful house inside and out accommodated by amazing hosts! Highly recommend this place

Pick this place for leaf peeping

Hosts have thought of everything—bottle water, creamer, birthday candles, readers in case you forgot your glasses, binoculars, paper plates, flashlights, multiple hair dryers, etc, etc. Very clean, gorgeously decorated, beautiful property. Lots of amenities—fun, large game room, fireplace, wonderful back porch with grill and fire table, fully adjustable (up/down/feet up/dowm) master bed. Beautiful views, lots of Fall colors, close to Mohawk state park, West Cornwall covered bridges, cute little shops. We spent half our trip leaf peeping/going to orchards/baking apple pie and we spent one day commuting into Brooklyn and the drive was beautiful. 2.5 hrs from Brooklyn, 1.5 hrs from teeny tiny little Tweed New Haven airport where Avelo air has great deals on flights. Highly recommend staying at this lovely house with great views and amenities.
