We spent a wonderful weekend in this beautiful and outstanding home.
It was immaculately clean which was clear the minute you opened the door. The house is beautiful, filled with light and laughter the entire time.
We ate in making good use of the well appointed kitchen. Coffee on the porch became our morning ritual and we closed the day around the fire.
Owners were easy to communicate with and very prompt responding to my questions. Once there the owners have created a hospitality book that thoughtfully answers any questions you may have.
We found ourselves not wanting to leave and thinking about the next time we can all do this again.
I highly recommend-

This house has it all: serenity, beautiful scenery, and quiet. We love Stone Ridge and all the surrounding towns so we took nature walks, got coffee, and just relaxed. The house is beautiful and spotless. The guidebook was comprehensive—a true demonstration of the couple’s love for the area and desire to have their guests enjoy their home. The fall colors were a big plus. We will stay here again!

Great property and owners!
The property was everything that we were expecting and more. It was very comfortable and made for a relaxed stay...truly a home away from home. We did have one issue that was beyond anyone’s control with our stay and the property owner was fantastic to work with and went the extra mile. We would highly recommend this property and the owners to anyone.

At ease in Stone Ridge.
In Stone Ridge for a wedding, our family of eleven was quite comfortable in this Zen-like property during a week that featured a heat wave approaching 100 degrees. The house itself is tastefully furnished and decorated; the woods around it allowed for self-guided tours during which we came upon deer; and the fire pit served as a hub for an evening of smor's. We also took day trips to Kingston (river waterfront shops and town wall murals), Saguerties (free equestrian competition), Bard College (beautiful Italian gardens behind Blithewood House), and Manhattan (museums). We give it our highest recommendation.
