Magical Place - loved the pond!
There's something undeniably magical about property starting from the private, wooded road to the charming antique house (1790) with its hidden staircases (3!) and beautiful original architectural details. The rooms are spread out enough that everyone had somewhere they could hang out, either together or on their own. My favorite bedroom is what appears to be a recent attic conversion with its own private large bathroom. Very charmingly done! The kitchen is small but has had some updating, very functional, but we found a max of two people in the kitchen at once was most comfortable. We enjoyed the outdoor shower after our many trips to the pond. Speaking of the pond... it's a huge wow. Very serene, hardly any people, crystal clear, warm like a bathtub in August. I think we spent most of the week just floating around out there and hanging out on the dock. Kids had a great time with the kayaks and paddle boards. They even tried doing a little fishing. We definitely made some incredible memories on Ryder pond.
Overall, the house is great for at least 2 families to share. It could definitely use more air conditioning units, specifically in the dining/kitchen area. Most of the bedrooms have window units which kept the sleeping areas cool and comfortable. The smaller rooms were a little more challenging, but fans helped. What people need to know is this is a very old house and while it has had a lot of updating (dishwasher, washer and dryer among many other modern conveniences) it has steep staircases that might be challenging for older folks. The house is full of antiques and had has an entire small pantry room full of bowls, platters, pots and pans. I happen to love old houses and this one was a treasure. We definitely plan on returning to this magical place.
