I cannot say enough about my stays at this home. It is my favorite place to get away from it all, spacious both inside and out to relax, take a deep breath and enjoy the sweeping scenery. If you can drag yourself away from all of the wonderful relaxing things to do there (hot tub/pool, entertainment barn, row on the pond, hike etc), the lovely town of Rhinebeck (just a short drive away) is a perfect location for boutique shopping and fine dining.

The photographs provided are all accurate and the home is impeccably maintained. I’ve been both in the summer and in the winter, and didn’t want for anything during either stay. Christina, the owner, is a gem and was very helpful with any questions we had.

This is an ideal location for mid-size parties, groups of friends, family reunions/getaways. It’s just a quick train ride away from Manhattan, and well worth the short trip.

Couldn’t recommend it more highly. Can’t wait to return!

Privacy, seclusion, beautiful accomodations, fresh mountain air … this country retreat has it all. I live a stressful life in New York City, and retreats to this property on Doodletown Road provided precisely the kind of soul-soothing relaxation I was looking for — just a short drive from NYC or Boston. I enjoyed hiking the trails, kayaking around the pond and shooting late-night billiards with some fellow friends. The owner and caretaker were totally hands-off, allowing our party to settle in, relax and feel like we were at home … and not on some sterile, hotel room vacation. If I can’t make it back up to see the autumn leaves changing, I’m hoping to convince my girlfriend and our friends to head back up for some winter snowshoeing around this fantastic property. I highly recommend you kick back and enjoy everything this exquisite home and surrounding region have to offer.

My wife, son, and I met several other couples here this past summer and fell in love with the place. Peaceful. Majestic. Serene. And pimped out with every amenity you could imagine. Endless things for both kids and adults to do. Or do nothing…which is just as rewarding.

We return to our busy lives in the Boston area and dream of returning to “Doodle” one day…

Pictures or even scrapbooks cannot do the place justice. It is a beautiful, expansive property that is perfect for any occasion. Forget about seeing any neighbors, you can’t even see the road. Just an amazing place.
