Total privacy and relaxation in a secluded 3 bed/ 2 bath house on 5 acres.
The house offers total privacy and relaxation on 5 private acres. Behind the property there are additional 300 acres of woods suitable for walking, hiking and even dirt bike riding. Access to the house is via 1200 feet long private driveway which takes you to the top of the mountain and the middle of the forest. The closest house is only visible in the winter and is 350 yards away. This is a perfect place to escape the civilization. The town of Hackettstown offers surprisingly variety of restaurants: Thai, Vietnamese, Japanese and an award winning "James on Main" restaurant opened by a famous San Francisco chef who grew up locally and decided to return to his roots. There are also 3 local breweries in town, right on Main street. The house is located and hour from Manhattan, 30 minutes from the Delaware Water Gap (think kayaking and hiking) and 45 minutes from the ski and water park areas in the Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania.
There is a full house generator that comes on automatically in case of a power loss.
I stayed here with family/children and it was great! The host was very kind and easy to get in touch with. Also had toys for young kids there which helped! Thank you so much!
The host Marc will make every effort to assure your stay exceeds your expectations. The home was exactly as pictured and described, making our family holiday-stay easy to plan. The area adds to the charm. We enjoyed Long Valley Brewery and Christmas with the Clydesdale at Willow Grove Farm, and would recommend both.
This property felt like our own home for a week. We were 2 families and were very comfortable living, sleeping, cooking, relaxing, etc. for our vacation. Very close to center of Hackettstown and convenient to all in this quaint town.
We had a fabulous time at this home in Hackettstown! Marc was the perfect host. The house was spotless, the yard was beautiful and it was so peaceful! Would definitely stay there again! Thank you!
We stayed here because our house was being renovated and it was a great solution for us. There's an office in the basement that was very helpful for us as we (sadly) weren't on vacation. Lovely views and good hiking if the weather allows.
Stayed at this house for three nights with two friends (all three of us in our 40s) and had an excellent time. Everything is as described, very clean and easy to access. Marc was very communicative and a wonderful host. Also very close to the city, but felt like we were hundreds of miles away. Recommended in all aspects!
We enjoyed staying at this property. It was quiet, very private, very clean and well stocked with necessary items. The driveway is quite steep, but that is just the way it is in this location. The owner was very kind and extremely helpful. I would recommend this one to friends.
Would return! Arrival begins with an exciting drive up a steep driveway to a secluded retreat. We enjoyed the open kitchen, new appliances, the big table for family meals, happy flowers, and a beautiful deck with festive lights. Easy check in process. Great nap spot in the basement.
We are a group of friends that train dogs and compete together.
We where Iâm town for a National competition. Marcâs House was in the perfect location, it was so nice to be able to let our dogs stretch out. We only cooked one meal there but the kitchen was adequately outfitted.
The beds are very comfortable, as well as the rest of the house.
My old roommates and I always have a yearly retreat to get away from work and family and this place was more than perfect. If u want to get away in a beautiful and private home. This is the place. The house is beautiful and immaculately kept. If ur looking to get away from the noise and husle and bustle of everyday life this place will do it. The house was larger than expected and extremely comfortable. I will recommend this place to all my family and friends. The nature and seclusion is priceless. I would definitely book this rental again.
The house and property was very beautiful. The rooms are very open, spacious and cozy. We tried to be very prepared and ended up overpacking. There were a few surprises when we arrived which made it an even better experience. The house had an impressive entertainment system complete with movies and books. The kitchen was nicely stocked with coffee and other necessary items. Meal delivery was great. Overall our stay was great. Our host Marc was very kind and welcoming. He always made himself available and we felt very safe. We will definitely return soon. We had a wonderful time!!!
