About this property

NEW! Herb Cottage: Historic Artist's Cottage, Wood Stove, Walk to Town!

Experience the essence of Woodstock in this former home to Anita M. Smith — artist, historian and “Herb Lady of the Catskills.” Enjoy the fragrance and serenity of the “show-off” herb garden right outside your door.

Just 1/2 mile from town center, Herb Cottage is nestled at the gateway to Woodstock’s legendary Overlook Mountain. If you’re searching for a mystical hideaway in which to relax, restore your energies, and recapture your creative self, this is the place for you!

Completely renovated, Herb Cottage offers a delightful mix of luxurious appointments and bluestone charm, including:
• Comfortable living room with woodstove, bluestone hearth, 37" cable HDTV, Blu-Ray player, and an extensive library of books, games and DVDs.
• Fully-equipped country kitchen with a bluestone countertop, herb tiles from Mexico, and a sunny dining nook.
• Second floor loft bedroom with a king-size bed featuring a luxurious memory foam mattress topper and 100% cotton linens.
• First floor bathroom with an antique claw foot tub converted into a rain shower.
• Additional amenities include spa robes, WIFI, and a secluded bluestone terrace with bluestone table and gas grill.
• Optional: Reiki treatments and access to other holistic practitioners.

Ideal for a couple. Combine with nearby Rock City Writer's Studio (VRBO # 3469886) for additional space.
