Beautiful place
We stayed at this wonderful property during my mother's memorial service. It was nice to have such a large place so my family could all stay in one place. Having such a large dining table so we could have meals all together was very helpful. The host was great and communicative. He even agreed to ship my aunt's slicer that she left behind. Thank you!

Wonderful House and Close to Hunter!
We stayed here with three other families back in January during a ski trip to Hunter Mountain. We loved the large table in the dining room and that was a nightly setting for hours of fun and games after long days on the slopes. The host was awesome and very quick to respond to any questions. The house is a short distance from Hunter and was perfect for our group.

Lexington big house
Nice, big and clean house. The kitchen was very well stock. My only negative would be the game room. The air hockey is not operable and there was only one pool stick to play pool with. I will come back to it again just because how nice and cozy it is. The location is superb.

Great old farmhouse
Lots of room, indoors and out, and great for a large group. Note that not all of the doors are even closable, let alone latchable/remain closed. But very nice space and very easy communication with host. Recommended.

Lots of space, everything needed.
Lovely spot. Beautiful. Lots of space and things we needed for multiple families to gather easily. We had a small hiccup with the code getting in-we we’re given the wrong code initially. But with quick communication we were easily able to get in. Not a problem! There was also some confusion about our check out time with cleaners coming early, but again- a problem easily solved. Great fire pit. Super comfortable beds. Kitchen was well stocked. Lots of space for all to gather. Thanks again for the great stay!

Fun in the Catskills
We had a group of 11 family members gather here. I think you could add about 4 more and still be comfortable staying here. Beautiful area of country! Hiking trails vary from easy to difficult, so look before you head out. Plenty of places to eat out if you don’t want to cook. Everything is spread out, roads are windy and you’ll be using your phone to guide you. If you like breweries check out West Kill, we loved it there! As far as the house goes it’s kinda quirky, but we all thought it was a great place for a large group. A table long enough for everyone to sit together. We also had room to do a puzzle and play cards. We cooked several meals and the basics are all there for that. Beds were comfy. Enjoyed several evenings around the fire pit. The property manager, Vasili, is very quick to respond to any messages and even had 2 pies waiting for us on arrival! I had never been to this area and we all agreed it was a great way to spend a relaxing week surrounded by beauty!

Perfect getaway
First, I would like to Thank the owner Vasilios. We were a group of 16 couples who needed a nice,not to far from home and kids, weekend getaway. This house was the perfect solution! It was easy to get to,private and quiet.It was our first weekend away without the kids in a very long time. More than enough room, maybe too much!!!! We all went through the house jokingly asking which wing they were in. It was clean and neat. The best part for us was the big dining room which we enjoyed a Saturday nite sit down dinner that everyone had enough room to sit at the table. We spent the entire weekend in that room. On our way home we already contacted Vasilios and let him know that we will be making this our yearly parents weekend getaway. Also, Hunter Mountain is down the road and take 5 minutes to get to. We would recommend this place to others and look forward to making more memories there. Thanks Vasilios for everything.

Perfect for Large Groups
My extended family and I stayed here for Oktoberfest at Hunter Mountain. We were a group of 18 adults and 5 kids and everyone LOVED it! The space is perfect for a large group. The teens and kids enjoyed the game barn that had foosball, air hockey, and billiards. The older folks appreciated that there were 2 bedrooms and a bathroom on the 1st floor (no stairs!). Everyone else loved the fire pit, the gorgeous mountain views, and the peace and quiet of the location. We are already talking about making this a yearly tradition! Some awesome things to note: -the owner Vasili is extremely quick to answer any questions; he was a pleasure to do business with and you can tell he genuinely cares about his property. - the wifi had no less than 20 devices connected and was still going strong - the kitchen has every pot, pan, and utensil you could ever need and a generous selection of spices in the cupboard. They even had some extra large serving platters for the big meals we ate at the giant dining room table. - there is no "chore list" at check out other than to pick up after yourselves. I very much appreciated not needing to strip the beds, etc. It was more relaxing this way! - the house must be 100 years old but has been restored beautifully. It is an old farmhouse and we loved exploring it and admired it unique charm. It was also spotlessly clean and I can attest to this as my 10 month old was crawling and rolling everywhere.

Always a great time
This is our second year staying at this house to play volleyball and enjoy the summer in the Catskills. Like last year, we had a great time hanging out in the backyard field and in the house. There’s plenty of space for everyone and we never felt cramped or uncomfortable. Great stay for large groups that want a lot of outdoor space!

Great for a large group!
We stayed here for a yearly friend reunion. 10 adults and 6 children (4-12). Plenty of bedrooms so everyone was comfy. Loved the 2 separate living rooms and enormous dining table that could accomodate a huge puzzle and board games at the same time. Large yard with fire pit allowed for running around and relaxing. House is very old so expect some wonkiness and uneven floors but it added to the charm. Town is close by with standard grocery store and a handful of good restaurants. An idyllic place to visit overall.

Memorial Day Weekend
We had 15 guys travel into the Catskills for a bachelor party. We stayed 3 nights and enjoyed both the house and the area. There are plenty of golf courses, hiking, and outdoor activities around (you may just need to drive about 10-15 minutes). The house is fairly secluded, so we had plenty of privacy. We spent a full day playing yard games (huge yard) and enjoying the weather. The house was plenty big for the 15 grown men we had staying, with plenty of beds, large common areas, and sufficient cooking/grilling items. The only real drawback was the distance to the next town for gas/food/bar/restaurant/delivery; as it was maybe 10-15 minute drive to get anywhere. Overall, a great weekend in a great house!

Even better the second time.
This was our second family Thanksgiving at this property. We were a group of 17 total. There was plentt of room for evertyone with numerous bedrooms, baths, parlors, kitchen, and dining room with a huge table. You would think heat would be a problem in a large old farmhouse, but this was not the case. The well-supplied kitchen had a large cutting block work table and allowed several cooks to operate at the same time.

Great house for a large gathering
This house suited our needs perfectly. 18 friends gathered here for a long weekend. The accommodations were exactly as advertised. The kitchen had every pot, pan, dish, utensil we needed to cook for the group. There is a large dining room table which was perfect for our meals. The house is situated on a large lt which allowed us to play various outdoor games. Communication with the property manager was excellent. There was one problem with the electricity and he had someone at the house to fix it in 30 minutes. An hour after I reported the problem it had been fixed We were completely satisfied with the house and are likely to return in next year.

Great Spot for Large Group
We visited Hunter Mountain for a few days of skiing and stayed at the farmhouse. There's a lot of old farmhouse charm, but there were two smart TVs for some downtime with the kids, a gameroom with plenty of stuff to play. Having two stoves, two fridges, two coffee makers were incredible plusses for cooking and prepping for a large group. Loved using the butcherblock countertops for prep. Only qualm was the sink was a little small for cleanups and only having one dishwasher, but It was only slightly inconvenient. Vasili was a great host and was very easy to communicate with. Thanks so much! The pound cake was delicious! We had a great time and hope to stay again sometime in the future!
