Everything was put together so very nicely - with extra goodies provided. Only challenge was that the washer was not working and we really needed that!

Place was nice, good communication with host. Only issue, one of the guests accidentally unplugged wifi to plug in a fan, resulting in 6am phone calls from host. Odd and inconvenient just to see a door camera.

Great views, clean property, and best of all fur-baby friendly! Great location next to Minerals Resort (can walk there) and 15 mins from Warwick, NY. Perfect all around for our 3 night mini getaway! We would 100% return for a longer stay in the future.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Very clean with a comfortable bed, which are the 2 most important aspects for me, and a cute little coffee bar setup. The unit was a bit tricky to find when I arrived late at night as the development has dark twisty roads, and I didn't know it was on the second floor when I booked, so I had to lug my heavy luggage up a dozen steep steps. (That detail should really be added to the listing.) Another note is that the spiral staircase to the upstairs sleeping area is reeeeally narrow, making it impossible to bring a suitcase up. This accommodation was good for me but would be a tight squeeze for more than just a couple. Lucia was easy to get in touch with.

Wonderful Place, Great Location, Thoughtful Amenities!

Spent 2 nights here while attending a wedding in the area. It’s on the same property as the Minerals Hotel, which was huge for us because we needed the shuttle to the wedding at Grand Cascades. Property is pet friendly, and we traveled with our dog, so that was one of our biggest selling points. The owner was lovely to work with, and the house was clean, modern and comfortable. There were some lovely little extras like individually wrapped muffins as part of the fully stocked coffee bar, and shower caps and body scrubbers in the bathroom. Overall, I’m really glad I made this choice!
