We stayed here with 9 people. The place was large enough to accommodate us it was very spacious. We loved the beams and stone inside the house. The property was very clean. We would stay here again. The location was great for us because we were visiting wineries and breweries in the area. It was also close enough to Marlboro where my son lives.
Everything was excellent except for the plumbing in the main 2nd floor bathroom. Toilet runs as the flapper is old and possibly too small. That can be fixed easily with a 10 part from the hardware store. Shower head is difficult to adjust and leaks at the pipe, spraying water all over the place. Other than that we liked the place a lot. It was very convenient to the places we had to be. Thanks
Great place! Stayed with our parents & other family for our daughter’s graduation at Vassar. Well appointed kitchen & fantastic patio and fire pit. Grill was out of gas when we got there and our hosts were in it within minutes. Would definitely recommend for larger family gatherings.
