About this property

Cozy Country Farmhouse Along the Catskill Scenic Trail

Come enjoy a relaxing time in our cozy renovated country farmhouse located in the beautiful rolling hills of the northern Catskills. We're only about 3 1/2 hours from New York City, but are truly a world away!

For your group of six or less, our house has three bedrooms, 1 full bath and 1 half bath with a fully equipped kitchen featuring both a modern gas stove and a 1926 Glenwood cookstove. There's a dining room for evening meals and a cozy table by the wood stove in the kitchen. This is a house where you can put up your feet and just relax!

You'll find that our house is the perfect location for exploring the outdoors...whether by a walk or a bike ride on the Catskill Scenic Trail, a day trip to Cooperstown, or a night-time bonfire in the fire pit on the hill above the house. Or maybe you're just looking to relax? Settle in with a good book you picked out at one of the local used bookstores or watch that movie you been saving for a quiet day. So...lots to do if you want to....but only if you want to!

Farmhouse in Hobart

I had a wonderful experience in my week at the Farmhouse. Ive stayed at a good number of rentals over the years, and this is one of the very best. The house is immaculate, and so efficiently thought out. Equally compelling are the grounds - and the close proximity to the beautifull Catskill Scenic Trail. I am eagerly anticipating my next trip to the Farmhouse.

Wonderful experience!

We had the best time! The house was clean with comfy beds, it had all the basic supplies we needed, and had a few fun games to play and interesting books to read during the evenings. The views were beautiful and we enjoyed exploring/walking on the property. The house was close to the bookstores in Hobart as well as delicious local restaurants. The Rich Farm farmhouse was a great place to stay. 😊

Clean and Cozy!

We enjoyed the farmhouse very much. It was super clean and had everything we needed. The property was beautiful... we walked to the top of the hill across the street to check out the sunrise as suggested. Gorgeous!! The fresh eggs were a nice surprise. We really liked the surrounding towns and would definitely recommend this house for anyone needing to stay in the area.

A wonderful stay in the farmhouse

We spent six snowy days in the farmhouse and it was delightful. The house is every bit as pretty as the pictures illustrate. It was as neat as a pin when we arrived. The family who lives next door made a point to give us our privacy, but was available if we had any questions. I would add one thing to the online description. This is a beautiful part of the country. There are mountains all around with beautiful old barns tucked between. Behind the house is a gorgeous trail that allows you to pass by some extraordinary scenery complete with shaggy horses in the field , friendly cows waiting at the fence and ducks swimming in a pond. It was perfect!

Guestbook Comment

Jan 1 - 6, 2008 I stayed at the cottage with an old friend after having been in Manhattan for a week; and it was a wonderful contrast! We weren't sure how warm the cottage might be; but on the second day it was -20C and we were perfectly cosy inside! The cottage is kitted out with everything you could need; lots of kitchenware, towels, clothes washing facilites...it's a home from home. Apart from exploring the Catskills, we had two days of skiing at Hunter, which was really fun. There are several other ski areas nearby, but I was recommended Hunter before leaving; it is about 45 easy drive away. Also; we were impressed with how well the roads are cleared of ice/snow....we had no problems getting about. Thanks for a really lovely stay!

Super cute, cozy, clean farmhouse. Absolutely loved our stay here. Enjoyed playing a game of scrabble, and doing some exercises out in the sunroom. Wished the town of Hobart had a bit more going for it, but the house itself was fantastic

Just as advertised

The house was comfortable and quiet. The property was absolutely beautiful and the surrounding views were lovely. The kids and our dog had a great time running around. The owners were very nice the couple times we ran into them and came right over when we managed to lock ourselves out almost immediately after arriving! We had a great time.

Great authentic farm house in a beautiful setting

We had a wonderful, too short stay here. It is beautiful location. The owner had some farm-fresh eggs for us in the refrigerator when we arrived. It’s close to the “bookstore village” of Hobart and one of our favorite places to eat - The Brushland Eating House. The house was very cozy and comfortable. Would definitely stay here again!

We have stayed here a few times and always love our stay. The house is cozy, we love the location - the rail trail is right behind the house and we love going to the bookstores in Hobart. The hosts are always very responsive. We look forward to another stay!

Wonderful escape from reality

My daughter wanted to visit the Hobart Book Village for her Christmas present, so I thought it would be nice to stay local and find a nice quiet get-away. The Rich Farmhouse is just that. The driveway was semi-circle shaped so there was no need to worry about backing in and out. The beds were so comfortable. I even had a down comforter on the queen bed. So cozy and warm. There were not many places around to eat that were open and we needed some good quality R&R, so we opted to cook at the house. Everything we could have imagine needing was available to our surprise. We made a nice pot of chili (it's December) and did buy containers to bring the rest home with us. There were a dozen farm fresh eggs provided for us in the fridge. What a nice touch! We made omelet's each day and wow, were they fantastic!!! Overall, the home was cozy and we were able to rest on the couches and read. My daughter even went hiking on the trail behind the house a few times. This place is a true gem. We will be back. I highly recommend.

Restful stay

Your location was serene and beautiful. We had a very busy weekend with family and friends but left your house emotionally refreshed. The house brought the feeling of simpler times. Well furnished with comfy beds and everything a person could need during their stay. The dozen eggs in the fridge was an added surprise and I think the best eggs I have ever had. Can't wait for another reason to stay at Rich Farms.

Always perfect!

We have stayed here at least once a year for as long as I can remember. It is always clean and well stocked. Our family has so many precious memories in this house. We still refer to it as “the blue house” even though it has not been blue for a very long time.

About the host

Hosted by Barbara LaBombard

Host profile image
You'll be staying on a farm that's been home to our family since the 1800's. While it's quieter on the farm from the days when it was an active dairy & poultry farm, there are still chickens for farm fresh eggs. Our family still lives next door and down the road.

Why they chose this property

The farmhouse was the first house on the farm - my grandfather and his twin brother were born in the house in 1894! For many years after that, it was the "hired hands" house. It eventually became empty and we decided to fix it up. Since we started hosting in 2005 we've had guests from all over the world! We hope you love it - and the farm - as much as we do!

What makes this property unique

We're located right alongside the Catskill Scenic Trail and are just down the road from the Hobart bookstores.
