Solitude in the woods

The property is secluded in the woods—no people to be seen! It's right on a stream, and the sound of running water outside is so soothing. The house is cozy and the wood-burning stove provided warmth in the evenings.

Lake Hill cottage

Beautiful property and cottage, very secluded and quiet. We all loved the wild life in the woods around the property( there was an abundance of different animals). Hard to pick a favorite part of the cottage from the man cave to the fire pit area and creek in the back. Our dog was in absolute heaven running around the woods as well, happiest we've ever seen him on vacation.

October stay

Very nice house and property. We especially liked the patio next to the stream. Close to town if you need something but yet far enough away to be secluded. Kitchen is very well stocked with pretty much every cooking utensil and appliance. October is a great time to visit for fall colors and lots of hiking options. Ruth was very accommodating and got back to us quickly.

Perfect Group Getaway

This rental was ideal for our group of 7 people and two small dogs. We spent most of our time enjoying the swimming holes, in the man cave playing games and grilling. We did not spend too much time in town, as we found the property had what we wanted for our vacation. Even the swimming holes nearby were ideal - and we did check out the Big Deep, but preferred what was on the property. Great vacation if you want something low-key or focused on hiking, but with plenty of space for activities right onsite.

Best VRBO experience yet

This property is a haven for anyone looking to get out of the city and reconnect with nature. Nestled in the woods near a gorgeous stream, guests will have little reason to leave the premises. The fact that the house is gorgeous, and that there is a separate house-sized "man-cave" with a pool table, bar, arcade games and an entertainment system doesn't hurt either! We love the town of Woodstock, but this property was so amazing we barely left. Can't recommend highly enough! The owner is so nice and communicative. We will definitely try to come back if we can!

Special Property

We rented this beautiful cabin for a week with our 3 year old daughter! It was absolutely amazing. The cabin was cozy and very private. We spent a lot of time in the private swimming hole right on the property and grilling outside next to the river. We used the amazing garden (kale, corn, cucumbers, tomatoes) to make fresh salads every night. The cabin is in a great location, only 10 min from downtown Woodstock. We can’t wait to come back another time! Truly a special property

Awesome Time!

Thank you for allowing us to use your beautiful home. Everything was as expected and pictured. Especially enjoyed the brook right outside the house. Loved that the property was just minutes from town, but you felt so far away from everything. If I could offer just a few suggestions to make the next person's stay even better - some basic instruction on using the electronics in the game room would be welcome, a password for the wi-fi would be great, and the fire pit area was not in as good a shape as the rest of the property. Overall, not a huge deal, but with everything else so perfect, it did make those things stand out.

Peaceful, Serene Vacation Spot

My family of five (two adults and three kids ages 6, 9, and 10), stayed in this beautiful log house in August 2021. I can't say enough good things about the house, the property, and the owner, Ruth, who was attentive and prompt to respond to any and every message and request. The pictures on VRBO don't do the house justice--its a lovely log house on nearly 7 acres of rolling lawns, woods, gardens, and the part we enjoyed best: a bubbling, crystal clear creek running along the back of the house. We all enjoyed wading in the creek all week. My kids spent hours catching minnows and our dog enjoyed swimming in the deceptively deep areas along the creek. The beds were comfortable, the water pressure in both showers was perfect, and the game shed down the path from the house was awesome. We played pool, Pac-Man, darts, and pinball all week. My kids were in heaven. We can't say enough good things about this rental and can't wait to return again sometime soon.

Fall Stay

The pictures of the grounds for this property were accurate- it is a lovely setting. We were able to let our dog off leash and she loved exploring the stream which is so close you can hear it. The leaves were just turning and it was beautiful. The house itself was lovely inside and warm. It’s a little older in terms of the bathroom and appliances but generally well cared for. We thought the man cave was a bit of a bust. The pool table was missing the 14 ball, the pinball machine did not work and one of the 2 big overhead lights was out (Ruth was trying to get it fixed.) The only other 2 issues we had was the master bed was a bit too soft for us and concave so my husband and I ended up smooshed together. Also, there’s no trash collection so we had to take our garbage to the dump 15 min away and had to pay $6/bag. Finally, there’s no cell coverage.

Holiday Dream House

My family had the pleasure of staying at this incredible location, and it exceeded all our expectations. The accuracy of the listing was spot on—no surprises, just pure delight. The pictures didn't do justice to the breathtaking location and the overall ambiance of the place. Everything was well-maintained and clean, ensuring a comfortable stay for my family. Let's talk about the location—it was a dream come true. The rental was nestled in Lake Hill, offering unparalleled access to both stunning natural landscapes and the vibrant town life of Woodstock. Whether you wanted to unwind amidst nature or explore the town, this spot had it all within reach. Privacy was another standout feature. Despite being conveniently located, it felt secluded and serene. The layout of the property allowed for peaceful moments and undisturbed relaxation, perfect for those seeking tranquility. What really made this rental special was its suitability for gatherings. The spacious layout and thoughtful amenities made it an ideal place to host friends or family. Without a doubt, I would absolutely have my family stay here again and I recommend it to others. The overall experience was exceptional, and the combination of accuracy, cleanliness, incredible location, privacy, and suitability for gatherings made it a standout choice for a memorable stay. Highly recommended!

All the good things wrapped up in one!

We had a fabulous time staying at this log home! The property is so incredibly private & beautiful! Inside & out the "cabin" is breathtaking - the perfect blend of luxuries & rustic charm! It had everything we needed, from the necessities of a well-stocked home to the special touches of bathrobes & complimentary wine. The kitchen was wonderful, and we cooked nearly all of our meals there, as it was complete with all appliances, pots, utensils, etc. The bedrooms were all absolutely lovely, and the main room was perfect for enjoying winter days and evenings with beautiful views of the wooded property all around. There was plenty to do, rain or shine, between the incredible "man cave", the party / card games, the plentiful hiking & rail trails in the area, and the extremely charming town of Woodstock. The next time we go we hope to use the fabulous fire pit patio area that looks out onto the river (quite a beautiful one at that, with spectacular rocks). Our host was so very accomodating, easy-going, responsive & generous! We got so much out of this stay - it was peaceful, fun, cozy & active. Truly, truly beautiful!

Perfect summer escape

We spent a week with our two teenage boys at Ruth’s beautiful property and could not have had a better time. Lots of space to spread out, plenty of outdoor activities and the man-cave for late night billiards and pinball. A well stocked kitchen, nice grill set-up and delicious local produce to make memorable evening meals. I was constantly amazed by the quiet and the privacy. The creek was a big draw, as well as exploring in the woods and playing catch in the front yard. The house is charming and comfortable and the fire pit was a bonus at the end of the day. Highly recommend Nancy’s in Bearsville for ice cream. Could not have asked for a more relaxing Catskills getaway.

Absolutely wonderful visit

We had an absolutely fabulous time at Ruth's family home in Lake Hill. The setting is serene and secluded: the house sits next to a creek which was full from all the recent rain so we fell asleep and woke up to the sound of the rushing water. The house is comfortable, spacious, and fully stocked with everything you may need (and more). We were working remotely and the Wi-Fi worked perfectly. The garden is beautiful: the lavender, bee-balm and daisies were in full bloom and Ruth offered us access to her vegetable garden. The man-cave was a roaring success with my husband and 14 year old who played pinball non stop and we all played evening games of pool. Ruth was friendly, generous and very easy to communicate with. This will definitely be a repeat destination for our family.

Perfect October Getaway

Had a lovely 6-day holiday at the Lake Hill home. Property is gorgeous, completely quiet and private, yet close enough to town that we could have pizza delivered. House was well equipped and very comfortable. Only disappointment was that the beautiful fireplace was not in working order as the weather was cold and rainy. Hopefully the owner will have that fixed for the rest of the fall and winter seasons.
