About this property

Modern cottage located in 250 private acres Pond Fishing Hiking Fire Pit

Lovely 2 bed/2bath cottage in the midst of 250 private acres to enjoy. New pond in April of 2022. Whether it’s the privacy alone or the wish to experience nature to its fullest in all seasons , this tranquil setting will entice you to relax and forget about the pressures of life in these times. Located on a small creek that feeds into a designated wet land, nature abounds. Perfect for birders or an energetic hike, the graceful rolling hills of these Enchanted Mountains will refresh and inspire. Many maintained trails both in the open grasslands and the managed woods. Snowshoe or cross country ski in winter, partake of the native fruits including apples, blueberries, blackberries, rhubarb and more in summer. Just 6 miles from the city of Olean and all its various restaurants and shopping or St. Bonaventure University. Ellicottville with its excellent ski resorts and night life are just a scant 12 miles away A well stocked kitchen with all the amenities is a cooks delight. Enjoy the Weber grill or the fire pit in the back yard while you listen to the birds serenade. A special treat is the summertime fireflies by the thousands. They still thrill me after 34 years on the property! A large deck on the back of the house has an array of furniture to while away a peaceful couple of days or weeks. Leave the “ rat race” behind, you deserve it! New pond in adjacent field completed last year has greened up with mowed lawn and stocked with fish this April more coming the end of May. Come and enjoy!!

The home was well stocked and nicely decorated, it’s a beautiful place to stay, however, it was a little bit too remote for my tastes.

The house was clean, convenient to town and yet private. There was a pond the pups could swim in and then walk the well maintained, on property, private trails. David thought of everything to make his guests comfortable and is accessible as needed. We were in need of a break from the everyday and this fulfilled that need perfectly. Coffee on the deck was the perfect way to wake up and fires at the fire pit at night was a great way to wind down. We were totally relaxed during our stay and looking to find a Fall date that works for us to go back.

So relaxing

The property was beautiful. Great outdoor space with a fire pit, Weber grill, and spacious deck. Full, functional kitchen. It may sound odd to mention functionality, but if you have used rentals before, you appreciate a kitchen with up to date appliances and cookware. The beds were comfortable and the towels were soft. It is the best experience I have had with a VRBO stay. I would love to visit again.

Best place in New York

Absolutely the perfect place to stay in southwest New York. Property is expensive with all kinds of trails, the home is beautifully appointed and clean. Has everything you need to use as a base camp for hiking or stay in for a quiet weekend.But most importantly, it has a dishwasher! Will stay here again.

We had a wonderful time. The cottage was beautiful, well stocked, and very clean. The owner was available to us. The pond is stocked well and the grounds were beautiful. The cottage does sit on a street that is frequently used by neighbors, so we had to watch our pups a lot. The pond was up the street and around the corner which was inconvenient. Overall, it was a beautiful spot to stay! Thank you.

Honeymoon Stay

Stayed here as part of our honeymoon. The property was even nicer in person than online. We loved the rural location, trails, and the sounds of the stream and outdoors. We're thinking of coming back again sometime!

Zen at its finest

1) Host David has gone above and beyond to make your stay comfortable . Easy instructions to follow 2) This property is the cleanest I have ever rented, and I camp alot with Vbro.com 3) When you enter the cottage, its very swanky and well decorated. It has high end appliances/fixtures and bathrooms are better then most 5 star hotels 4) Olean is a short drive for provisions, but David has got you covered. The kitchen is well stocked, you could easily cook for a group5) Absolutely peaceful and serene. The pond has some HUGE Fish in there, I caught every day I fished, saw some in the pond 14 "to 16" easily "Lunkers"

Amazing location

I booked this last minute as a Father's Day gift to my husband who loves all things nature. The property was just beautiful, inside and out. It was peaceful and private with comfortable beds and strong enough wifi for me to work remotely. David left clear instructions for everything we would need and check in was easy. My husband has already asked when we can come back :)

Peaceful Stay

We were in town for a family reunion. We normally stay in Olean NY and decided to try a new location. I was worried that Hinsdale would be too far out. We were pleasantly surprised how close it was to Olean NY. We enjoyed the views and quaintness the cottage offered. We’re definitely considering coming back for the next family reunion. The cottage was very clean and well equipped. We thoroughly enjoyed the peace and wildlife at the cottage!

We stayed here in early April 2025. This is the best Vrbo we have stayed in. The cabin is perfect for me, my adult son, & our fur baby. All the little details in the cabin & on the property did not go unnoticed! We love the artistic touches! This was exactly the unplugging that we needed & we have already booked our next stay here.
