Charming brookside cottage

Our family of five absolutely loved this cottage. It was adorably charming yet also very clean and well stocked. The babbling book was the most serene backdrop and we loved being super walkable to all the little shops and restaurants that Woodstock has to offer. I debated renting because we have three young children, one who is a toddler. I was worried about how k

Amazing time!

We had such a great stay with my toddler and 2 dogs! The area is extremely dog friendly and walking distance to all the best coffee shops and restaurants !

Warm, welcoming and cozy!

Great country house, well situated near town, with stream in the rear. Would definitely stay here agin. Excellent communication with the owner, whose attention to detail helps to make this a comfortable stay. Well equipped kitchen -- pretty much everything you might need. This is a cozy house, not a fancy house. Very comfortable for a family. Stairs are a bit steep for little kids with kids beds upstairs.

a memorable Thanksgiving

Cozy home close to everything. The babbling brook soothes the soul. Placement of bedrooms and baths provided both convenience and privacy for each of us. The kitchen provided all utensils and equipment we needed to prepare our Thanksgiving meal. Excellent service from property manager. Highly recommend! Thought we didn't have infants/toddlers with us, we noticed that this property would accommodate them well.

Beautiful and relaxing vacation home

Brookside Retreat was everything we could have wished for in a vacation home. The house is even bigger than the photos show, the property is beautiful, and being right next to a stream surrounded by trees while only a few blocks from stores made it just perfect. The house is wonderfully equipped and the property manager was immediately accessible when a question came up. We definitely plan on coming back.

Beautiful brook-side retreat in Woodstock center

We absolutely loved the property and our stay. The home is comfortable and well-appointed. We loved the gas fireplace, large kitchen and the patio overlooking the stream. The house is convenient to everything and walking distance to shops and restaurants. Communication was A+++ throughout our stay and we could not have been happier. This is a true gem!!

Wonderful Experience!

This cottage in Woodstock was perfect for our group. The master bedroom is spacious, as is the kitchen and living room area, and it the heat worked unbelievably well considering the very cold temperatures over the weekend we were there. The outdoor and indoor fireplaces both added to the experience. The property manager was also extremely communicative, which was helpful leading up to our stay. I highly recommend staying here and will definitely be back!

The best location!

We have stayed in the Woodstock area several times, and this was absolutely one of our favorites. The house has so much character, and is tucked away in beautiful nature, but still very accessible to all of the fun and deliciousness that Woodstock has to offer with just a short walk to shops and restaurants. The property manager was very helpful and responsive. We had our 1 year old with us - it's a great location for young ones too! We would love to come back soon.

Lovely family escape!

We had a lovely stay with our 2 year old! The layout was nice and open and it was more or less kid safe! The fireplace was amazing and the piano was a hit! My husband and I had to work a little bit and the desk in the master was a perfect set up. Location wise it doesn’t get any better being so close to town! Linens were great, kitchen had everything we needed, and the property manager was responsive. We had a wonderful holiday and new year and can’t wait for our next trip back to Woodstock!

Excellent family-friendly house!

My wife, two-year old daughter had a wonderful stay. The location is perfect, about a 5-10 minute walk from the center of town and even closer to a great grocery store, coffee shop & CVS. If you're traveling with kids, the children's bedroom is perfect and the property is fun to explore being right on the creek. It was really cold during our stay so we spent a lot of time inside, which wasn't an issue with the great fireplace, large kitchen table and big, comfortable bedrooms. The check-in and check-out process was incredibly smooth and the property manager & owner were incredibly responsive and kind. Highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a getaway in Woodstock, especially if you have kids!

Amazing Property!

My family and I had a great stay at Brookside Retreat. It was the perfect fit for us for several reasons - The house was very well stocked and organized. A lot of thought and care was put into having all necessary items provided for included items for babies/children which was appreciated since we have a 2 year old! As someone who is meticulously clean and organized I was so impressed with how clean and organized the place was. You can tell the house is cared for with a lot of love. My husband and I work remote so the detached studio/office space was great. It was also our first time in Woodstock and you really couldn't pick a better location. It's a couple streets off of the "downtown" so just a 5 minute walk to anything and everything you'd want or need but also a bit tucked away so the house itself is quiet without a lot of action going on. Also the property itself it so relaxing being on the river with the soothing water sounds. Such a treat! Highly recommend for families with children or dogs, couples, people working remote, etc. Our stay was such a nice getaway and we hope to return again one day!

Beautiful property very close to town

We throughly enjoyed our time at this house. The location, right on the stream and a very short walk to town, was ideal. The outdoor space was beautiful and very relaxing with the stream babbling by us. The master bedroom is large and welcoming. Upstairs are 2 more bedrooms and a shared bath. All of the bedrooms have wall AC units, which cool those rooms nicely. However the main living area is not air conditioned. We only had 1 very hot day so it wasn’t really a problem for us. Just something to be aware of if you are booking during the summer. The kitchen had everything we needed. And our dog loved it! Very happy to have the fenced yard. Definitely recommend this property.
