The house was clean and welcoming with plenty of room for the 10 of us. Close to the Dobbs Ferry station. The owner was in contact with me throughout the stay to make sure everything was ok. I would recommend this house for your stay.
This was a first for us to take such a big trip and the stay was amazing. The place was perfect - plenty of room! Lots of bathrooms, clean, and in a great location. We walked to the train each day with ease. Our host was so attentive and provided a lot of great information about the area and visiting NYC. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.
We had an amazing time during our stay! The home was thoughtfully equipped and made for a very comfortable visit. We especially appreciated the motion-sensor lights, hand soap, dish liquid, wall charger ports for newer cords, and the full-size air mattress. The layout of the space was well-structured and inviting, and we absolutely loved the down comforters they were a cozy touch!It was also incredibly helpful to have toiletries and other essentials readily available those little details made a big difference.Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely return. Thank you for creating such a welcoming and well-appointed space!

Dobbs Ferry bike group
A group of 8 of us stayed here after riding down from Schenectady on our bikes. The house was large enough and with the # of bedrooms and bathrooms worked out well. The listing did not specifically note that the house actually had 3 separate living areas, but this ended up being OK. The location is just a short walk to DF train station where we took the Hudson line into, and back from, NYC. I give the house and location high grades. The one big issue was the lack of timely communication with the Host. There also was confusion in the listing about the pricing that neither Vrbo or the Host remedied. Great house, but difficult to deal with an untimely Host.

Thank you for your review and for choosing our property for your cycling trip.
We're glad to hear that the house, bedroom layout, bathrooms, location, and easy access to the Dobbs Ferry train station worked well for your group and helped make your visit to New York enjoyable.
We are sorry to hear that you felt communication was not as timely as expected. We strive to respond as quickly as possible and continuously work to improve our responsiveness. We host guests across multiple properties and have received hundreds of reviews with an overall rating above 4.8 out of 5, with many guests specifically complimenting our communication and hospitality.
Regarding the layout, the property is intentionally designed with multiple living areas, which many larger groups find beneficial for privacy and flexibility. We appreciate your feedback and will review the listing description to see whether we can make this even clearer for future guests.
As for the pricing concern, all pricing, taxes, fees, and platform charges are calculated and processed directly through the booking platform. Unfortunately, hosts have limited visibility into how certain platform fees are displayed during the booking process. We understand the frustration and wish we could have provided a better resolution.
Thank you again for staying with us. We appreciate the positive comments about the house and location and wish you many more great cycling adventures ahead.
We could not have asked for a better home for our weekend trip! We had a rather large group of 14 people getting together for a reunion weekend. David's home was perfect for what we needed. It had plenty of space, was tidy and clean and very modern! We headed into the Bronx for a football game at Yankee Stadium. The Dobbs Ferry train station is about a 10 minute walk from the house which was great! David's house is perfect for a smaller group traveling to the area, or a large group like ours! David made it easy to communicate and provided lots of instructions to help make the stay go smoothly. We will definitely be keeping this house in mind for future reunions and would recommend it to anyone traveling to the area!
