What An Amazing Location

Robert was an amazing host, from meeting us upon arrival and showing us the house to helping with some planning issues he really got us through. The location is about as tranquil as you could ever want. We will be back to celebrate year after year.

Gorgeous views of the Hudson

We had a fabulous stay and loved our time on the porch and by the pool. This a restored historic home with all the modern amenities you might need. We loved marveling at some of the original features of the home. The long range mountain and river views from the porch are stunning and my whole family enjoyed the pool. Do note if your party is large, you will need to be careful to take shorter showers due to the well. Overall, we were happy to have stayed here and had a nice relaxing family holiday.

Beautiful setting

An interesting historic house on 40 acres with gorgeous views. Close to Albany and Troy, and an easy day trip to the Berkshires.

Great for a family with small children.

The house is secluded and the pool was great. Robert lives nearby and was available for assistance (questions and checking on the pool). He was very generous and even let our kids use the ATVs. Overall it was a relaxing trip and the view was incredible. We spend most of the time on the screened in porch or in the pool.
