Wonderful place in the country. Perfect for groups. Very well appointed both inside and out. The host was a dream to work with. Very communicative and helpful. Would love to visit again.
Owner was very communicative and accommodating. Quick replies on any issues. Property is well-maintained and well-stocked. Beds are VERY comfortable and sheets and towels were very soft and in good condition. Unfortunately there was some damage to one of the AC units before our short stay that couldnât be repaired before we left, and a few other small issues, but owner was very quick to respond. Upstairs water pressure wasnât great but itâs a trade off for the nice space and privacy. Gorgeous outdoor space. Bocce court needs weeding but the outdoor kitchen, firepit and gazebo are all top notch. Would rent again!
Michelle was very responsive from the beginning. Already- A great sign.
We were 3 young families (6 parents, 5 kids, at the age of 1.5-5 year old).
The house is beautifully designed. The kitchen, the backyard, and basically everything- was fully equipped with what was needed (and more).
Thereâs so much room (indoor and outdoor)- so the kids didnât go up/down the stairs and just enjoyed the (huge) backyard, and the nature that surrounds you.
(And for us, the parents, fire pit, bbq, view, place for the kids to run and run and run).
Great host, great place, great house (that feels like home. And like Italy :))- we canât thank Michelle enough.
Highly recommended. We will come back for sure.
Thanks Michelle!
Exceptional House Large FamilyAn Italian Villa that made for a memorable family time
An excellent choice for large families seeking a perfect setting that could have been in Italy. The owner has meticulously created a home, ensuring not only details were thought throug but the layout was perfect for dinner and plenty of space to spread out into small groups. The outside amenities made it feel like a part of the house and had both games, fire pits, 1st rate grill station and a wonderful gazebo. The pergola over the outside cooking (with full prep table) and dinner seating area was perfect. The owner was not only response to questions, she was quick to respond and to follow up. Highly recommend this home for renting.
I choose Michelle's house for the photos on website. But, when we arrived, everything is better than the photos! We loved the villa style backyard and Michelle has been quick and go above normal range of help as a host. She even recommended and helped us find a great catering business, provide extra water and more. We love every bit!
Fun summer weekend with friends. Spent the entire time outside enjoying the fire pit, BBQ and corn hole or cooking in the spacious kitchen. Perfect place to gather together and relax.
The house was amazingly stocked with everything we needed for the weekend. Lovely space to sit and eat outside. Bedrooms were nicely decorated and the beds were very comfortable. Also thoroughly enjoyed hiking in nearby Thacker Park.
House was a great size and very nice, heat was deadly during our stay but with ac units in every room of the house that was no issue. All appliances in the house were very up to date and in perfect shape. Great layout for dinning with a large group. Would definitely stay again if back in the area and highly recommend for family gatherings, or weekend get seats with friends!
If you want to feel like you need an escape to Italy without leaving NY this is a perfect house. All rooms have their own stylish design and awesome details on every corner. We rented this house for 4th of July weekend and was great. There is a huge backyard with fireplace which it doesn't show in pictures and relaxing chairs outside. The game room was amazing also with a special table with roulette and poker game. Everything was new and beautiful in this house! I hope you enjoy as much as we did.
