Great location and very clean. Beds and bedding very comfortable. Screen in porch was so nice especially for morning coffee and nightcap. This might sound funny but this is the first place I stayed that didn’t turn my white socks black from the floor being dirty!

We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay at Steamboat Cottage and found everything to your liking. The location is the perfect juxtaposition between peace, quiet, and privacy to everything Irvington within walking/biking distance. Our housekeeping staff is top notch as you noted, and this comment made us smile. No dirty socks here! Glad to also hear you used and enjoyed one of our outdoor spaces-the screened porch, it is very popular among guests. We also have a patio and a firepit area for mild weather enjoyment. Thanks again for staying with us. We do hope you'll come again or share our little cottage with friends and family. Until then, take care, Bonnie
