Other things to note
Happy to host families. Please note that I haven’t child proofed it, you can see from the photos there is a number of sharp corners, and a concrete floor.
Well behaved dogs are fine. There is no fence around the permimeter.
This house was perfect!! The kitchen was fully stocked with everything you needed to cook, I literally felt like I was in my own home. Typically when we stay in rental houses they have the bare minimum to cook a meal but this house was the exact opposite. Tim had several different options to make coffee (along with very thorough instructions on how to do it), which was amazing for us because we all love coffee. He also had a binder with instructions on how to work everything in the house which was really helpful, especially if you aren’t as tech savvy. His house was so clean, everything in there was well taken care of. Tim was very helpful and quick to respond when we had a question about the Wi-Fi. My family and I loved this house and will definitely be booking again in the future.
We were looking for a new place to work to mix things up. We were still planning to work, just a new place to walk in the morning, new restaurants in the evening, a new scenery when you look out the window. This property was exactly what we need. Fantastic modern minimalistic design. great kitchen and coffee. 2 office spaces (1 office and one desk in a hall) , high speed internet, quiet. Coming from the city, this was a change - here we heard nothing. you may see a 2-3 cars on the road each day. 20 min drive to the reservoir for walking. 15-30 min drive to several great restaurants. Cell phone is spotty, but internet was perfect. It was just nice to get away to work from someplace new. It may be a little far up the hill for vacation destination - we tried to just drive down once a day, as its quite the trek. But for telework - it was just what we wanted.
If you need a break from the New York City - this is the place to be. Very clean and location is great.
