In the winter, we recommend a car with four-wheel drive that can handle the snow and slippery roads. While we have someone that plows and salts the roads, weather in the area can be unpredictable so please check and plan accordingly.

What an unexpected gem! From the photos and descriptions, we

What an unexpected gem! From the photos and descriptions, we were hoping for a quiet lake house to wind down for a week amid otherwise hectic lives. But this property delivered well above and beyond our expectations. The property was stunning, the views were lovely and all the amenities were top-notch. Things that stood out: the space was large and inviting, allowing each of our 4 adult family members their own space (bedrooms were roomy, bathrooms well arranged, and there were three separate common areas). Also, it is part of a small lake development/community, so there’s access to a pool (and other amenities) within a short drive. The towns of Coxsackie and Athens, while small and quiet, were both a 10 minute drive, meaning easy run for supplies or restaurants if you don’t want to go over the bridge into Hudson (which itself is only about 20 minutes). All in all, a lovely, restful stay.

The cottage is absolutely beautiful! It is just as gorgeous

The cottage is absolutely beautiful! It is just as gorgeous inside as it is outside and was everything we were hoping for in our vacation. It was clean and comfortable. The kayaks and paddleboards were perfect for exploring the lake. The hosts were extremely responsive and we are definitely planning on staying again next year!
