Perfect base for ski weekend

The house was clean and cozy and a perfect base camp for a weekend of skiing at belleayre. It’s about 20 min from the mountain and had a cozy couch to relax and watch a movie on after a day on the slopes with kids.

Great Holiday Getaway

This home was perfect for our family weekend trip. It was clean, had plenty of room for us, and was conveniently-located close to Hunter Mountain and local restaurants. Rick was easy to get in touch with and was very responsive. The family especially enjoyed sitting in the hot tub as the snow fell.

Perfect stay

We stay at this property every year. It’s in a perfect private location and has a hot tub. We brought our dog so the enclosed deck was perfect. Hunter only 15 minutes away and hiking and west kill brewery not too far down the road. The house is spacious and clean we will be back next year!

Mini - moon stay

We loved our stay at Ricks place! We went after our wedding to get away and unwind for a couple days. The house was great! Lovely view, hot tub, plenty of space and things to do. It was exactly what we needed and wanted. We were sad to leave and were talking immediately about when we could return to take advantage of the location since we didn’t do much exploring this stay

Fun Birthday

We went just for the 3 day weekend. Our host was nice enough to set up a birthday surprise. Complete with table cloth, signs and other fun stuff. Sadly it rained the whole time. But luckily we still enjoyed the hot tub and the other fun games and activities available at the house. We also drove through the countryside and admired the changing leaves and the nearby falls. The brewpub up the road was wonderful too. With live music and a roasting fire. Even our pup was welcome. Turned out to be a lovely weekend despite the weather.

Love The View

PRO'S Rick's Quick Booking Acceptance & Speedy Responses, Thank-You, You Have Been Very Helpful. 😁 Awesome View,- Great Place to Enjoy your AM Coffee on a Nice Wrap-Around Deck (3-sides) Very Private Comfortable Beds TV's in Every Room Just 20 Minutes from Grocery Store Grocery Store "Tops" - Has Everything! Keurig Machine & 12 Cup Coffee Pot Huge Fridge Large Dinner Table Adequate Dinner Wear Game Room ---> Foosball, Pool, Air-Hockey, Ring Toss Wall Game, Corn Hole Game Fire Pit Hot Tub Coi/Frog Pond - We Fed them Daily! Awesome River Spot Pull Off in Lexington - 10 minute ride. Bring Your Beach Chairs and Sit in the Clean Flowing River - Our Puppy loved it!!! ( FYI - NO Pic-Nic Tables) KAATERSKILLS FALLS is a Must! There is an Upper Level Access Rd Called Laurel House Rd - Closer to the Top - Short Walk to the Falls with a Breathtaking View!, (.6 of a mile) YOU HAVE TO GO!!!! My 2 Son's and a girlfriend (Ages 27, 28, 29) Hiked Up the Whole Thing - They Were QUITE SORE! (Lots of Large Stone Steps.) FYI Get there EARLY as the Lot Fills up Quickly. CONS - House is Very Close to the Road, However - Hardly much traffic at all, it is a private road. Blind Driveway - But you Can Hear the Cars from Quite a Distance in Both Directions. The Air Hockey Game was Busted on the Sides.😥 River Across the Street - FORGET IT, Unless Your Super Athletic and Ambitious! Couch is NOT Comfortable. No K-Cups Provided. Small Bedrooms - ALL 3. Tub was Hard to Get In/Out

This was a great weekend escape! The house was very clean and exactly as shown in the listing, with just a few cosmetic flaws. The hot tub was hot upon arrival, Rick was responsive when I couldn't figure out how to turn on the indoor fireplace. (the button is flat on the screen!) Loved the game room and exceptionally random selection of VHS and DVDs to watch. All the necessary kitchenware and very nice coffee maker provided (no tea bags/coffee - just a few kurig pods so BYO!) The only weird thing was we kept finding random lady bugs in the house? But over all a great cozy retreat!

An amazing place to stay for a ski trip. The house is close to both Windham and Hunter Mtn (about 15-20 min to either). Rick was super responsive and the house had everything to make our stay comfortable!
