Summary: The cottage is a real gem. We loved the location, the view, the room layout, and all the lovely antique furniture. We were two couples: my husband and I, my daughter and son-in-law. There was everything we needed. Although we had a bit of rain, the cottage itself was a joy to relax in and there was plenty of room so we didn't get in each other's way. My daughter, who is a lover of historical things, is already planning next years stay here.

Summary: As described, older and charming house. Great place to decompress over a long weekend. Beautiful views from the sun room facing a large backyard. A doe and her fawn visited several times, along with wild turkeys and a curious black cat from the neighborhood. Amazing vegan options, dog runs and parks. Enjoyed being in a smaller community while close enough to New Paltz and other larger locations.

Summary: My family spent a week here. Nice and cozy old house on top of a mountain with great views. Everything in the house is antique including all the furniture. The place could have been cleaned much better before our arrival. Overall good stay

Summary: We loved our stay at this charming, vintage Catskill cottage which felt like a step back in time. It was perfectly situated in an adorable historic hamlet near several hiking trails with sweeping views. Ann and Cathi, the caretaker, were both lovely and easy to communicate with. We highly recommend dinner out at the Aroma Thyme Bistro in Ellenville - considered one of the best in the Hudson Valley.

Summary: This is a little gem in Cragsmoor. House is packed with vintage furnitures. It will show up in Pine Bush on google map. Great location. Close to the cragsmoor library, stone church and sam’s point. I give it four stars as this is an old house and there are always things that need to be fixed up. Ie, the flooring. Not a big concern to me though. Overall highly Recommended!
