Close to Wedding Venue, but needs some maintenance!
A group of close friends and family stayed here while attending a wedding down the road at Stone Tavern Farm. The venue is only a couple minutes away so in that way, it is super convenient! The grounds of the property are beautiful- rolling hills, beautiful barn and pond and plenty of parking. Easy check-in process. Homey touches inside. The downsides were the maintenance of the inside. It is a beautiful house that has just been poorly maintained and so it did not meet our expectations from the pictures and in cleanliness. The house was fairly dusty and smelled like mildew when we got there (and throughout the weekend). A couple of the closets were messy and dirty. One couple’s sheets were damp on their bed, another couple had a lot of hair on the sheets on their bed and they needed to be swapped (there are extra linens). The walls are pretty badly scuffed with small holes in the wall in two bedrooms, the stove is cracking, the radiator was pulled off the wall and a couple closets had their doors off their sliders. Two of the bathrooms had flickering lights. One of the windows would not seal closed so it was quite cold in that bedroom. We were asked to document any damage when we arrived and we sent some photos upon arrival but we were out of the house the majority of the weekend at the wedding and it was burdensome to continue to come across these issues. Overall, it worked out for us for the weekend but we would not stay again unless there were changes made.

Perfect commute to Platekill Mountain (<7 minutes from home) I felt the cost/per night was high and the minimum three night booking was a bit of a drawback as we were in town for a wedding. We booked for three but left after two nights. Although I can see this requirement during ski season beacuse of the many ski mountains within close distance we rented during the foliage season. Large open living room area and long kitchen table for family to gather. Beautiful fireplace (we did not use), and plenty of sleeping area. Very rustic home in ski country. Cell service is intermittent in the area, however the house has wi-fi and connections were fine. Property manager was very receptive to some suggestions for future guests.

Family reunion for wedding
Our family of 12 people had a wonderful time in the farm house. The house is beautiful and very spacious. The divided upstairs gave us even more privacy. The surroundings are beautiful with the gorgeous barn, pond, and even a vegetable garden. Very quiet at night. The kitchen could use some storage containers for left overs. Bring your Tupperware. We had no issues with the water as some other guest mentioned. We had a few minor issues with a shower knob and closet door, but they were addressed by the owner immediately. Would highly recommend.

I do not recommend this property
Host & Owners made aware of issues but did not care or think important enough. While we were there, the house was covered in dust & filth. Dirty floors & noticeable dust everywhere. Lots of neglect, spiderwebs & dead bugs around. There was a MOUSE nest inside of the house, upstairs in the bedroom with 2 twin beds. TWO hornet nests in house: one above the shower (in the bathroom with the claw foot tub), other in the laundry room. Windows wouldn’t stay open & handles broken on most of them. Upstairs hall shower did not drain properly. While watching a movie in the living room, water POURED in a steady stream from the ceiling. We had to use trash can to catch the water. Queen bedroom door handle was falling off & door wouldn’t close because of carpet jamming it. Very tiny glass shower leaks VERY badly & we had to use ALL the towels to soak up water after each use. NO seal & opening all along the base of the shower door. Rear deck step very loose. Lightbulbs missing & not working all over house. Clothes dryer awful. Took THREE dryer cycles to dry clothes plus squeaked SO loudly with every rotation. Used WD-40 on every door in house because they squeak so badly. Outlets all over house not working including dining room & 3 bedrooms. Master bed is terrible, head of bed is lower than feet! Carpet old with dead bugs, stained & bumpy (trip hazard). Toilet seat loose, shower trim missing, water leaks onto wood floor in this bathroom as well. Smoke detector in kitchen pulled off the ceiling. Stovetop doesn’t work. Whole front of stove is cracked & separated from stovetop/oven. All pots & pans so sticky we had to wash everything before using. Insufficient utensils, pots/pans, etc for a house advertising toward large groups. Right side of toaster broken & must be held or propped down to toast anything. No stove top/oven vent & kitchen window broken, not proper ventilation when cooking. WiFi weak & dropped entirely several times during stay. I strongly advise you to find a better property for your stay in Roxbury. There are much better options for the price. Good luck!

Review of Catskills Home
Property was perfectly located for me and my groomsmen. Everything was super clean, we loved the selection of board games and the outdoor space. It was perfect for us to unwind and get ready for the big day. Zero complaints and will easily recommend the property for anyone looking to stay in the Catskills
