The house itself was cozy and super comfortable that my sister and I immediately felt at home. Our only issue was that there was clear evidence of mice because there was old mouse droppings all over the kitchen, including the inside the cabinets and on top of the stove. We decided to reach out to the host when there was evidence of fresh mouse droppings by the sink. He was accommodating and sent for the house's cleaners where they set traps in the basement the next day. They were really friendly and so helpful! The property is also dog friendly and the access to the Neversink river is great. Overall I would recommend this property once the vermin issue is controlled.

This house served its purpose, and the price was decent. The location is between two abandoned houses in disrepair. However, the Neversink River is right across the road and it's beautiful. This is stained a bit by the rock quarry behind it that has a continual stream of tractor trailers coming and going from it starting at 7am. I barely slept the whole week.
I believe improvements can be made on the house as it is quite old and not very updated, but not much to do about the other issues. Our shower head broke when we simply touched it so that became an issue with showering.
I would stay here again but more out of function than enjoyment.

This was my second summer at the house. It is comfortable and welcoming. I don’t know if I will be able to go next year, but it’s definitely on my list!

This was a great place for my family to come together. We enjoyed fishing in the river and the little ones waded around. The house was in a perfect spot for visits to the water park, casino and winery. We even got to go to a concert at Bethel Woods! The kids even asked if I could rent the house for next summer! If that’s not a positive review, I don’t know what could be! Thank you so much!

Mildewy
Although the linens and kitchen were clean, the upstairs is almost unlivable if you are allergic to mold and mildew. The smell is overwhelming. Maybe in the winter when the heat has been on consistently the smell may dissapate, but in October it was almost unbearable if you are sensitive to smells.

Cottage with river views
This is a lovely well-kept house by a beautiful river! There are a few downsides to the area for those looking for total peace & quiet: there's a holiday park at the end of the road, with ATVs and dirt bikes in the summer, and a cement company road across the river which is busy in the summertime. There are also abandoned properties around the house -- none of these things are in the owner's control, of course. Everything that is, is very nice. Lots of beds, comfortable sofas, a good kitchen and dining space, a deck with two grills. And the house is located conveniently for day trips all around the area.

Awesome stay!
We are very fortunate to find this adorable cottage while we were transitioning after selling our home. This cute little house is everything and more. The only thing we brought was our clothes and never needed anything else! The owner, Rich, was extremely responsive and great to deal with. The neighborhood is very quiet with a beautiful view of the Delaware River cross the street.

Its ok
The property can use some upgrades. The bathrooms are dated and rusty in some places. The carpet is very old as are the beddings, bath towels, hand towels, etc. The a.c. units have layers of visible dirt as does the ceiling fan(s). The abandoned properties on either side are not pleasant to look at and very overgrown and the river water level was very low. We could not fish in it from our spot, it was pretty to look at though. It may be better in the winter. It also would have been nice to have some chairs and a table for the deck outside , there was 1 plastic chair and 2 folded metal chairs . There were 9 of us staying altogether, the grill was nice but like I said no outdoor seating.

It's a pretty nice spot. It's a mountain house w not many amenities but it was perfect for us. It was myself and 6 friends. We range from ages 25-28. Some of these comments complain about being in between two abandoned houses which is true, but it was not creepy or really overgrown. There are neighbors just a few doors down. We preferred no neighbors since we hung out in the large yard and the deck most of the night listening to music. The house had all you needed and was clean. All bathrooms worked well and were clean and stocked with towels. It was nice having the river across the street. We really enjoyed this stay. We chose this home because we spent the weekend kayaking/rafting @ the Delaware River in matamoras PA which was only about a 35 min drive away. Nice house ! Would stay again !

Unsafe
It was very old house. The doors were taped together only 1 bathroom was usable. House is located between two houses that are abandoned and overgrown with brush. Not a real safe location.

Property in poor condition
I have photos to back this up: The house sits on a street of several abandoned houses +between two of them. Both houses are a real hazard (one is so bad a tree is growing out of the roof)! House smells bad. Aired it out, still smells.Bathtub had moldy mat - replaced by owner when we complained, but indicates lack of upkeep. Ceiling in one bath coming down at corner. Bedroom door panel held on with clear tape. Post its covering bathroom keyholes (Why?). Water filter to house was so clogged pressure was way down - fixed by owner as soon as we said, but we had been drinking nasty water! Found a set mouse trap in linen closet (under towel, could have been hurt). Basement (laundry) is nasty. Driveway needs more gravel, turns to mud puddle at slightest sprinkle. The Holiday fun center at end of the street has motor bikes, you hear the noise all the time. This rental is about 20 years past its prime. We would have left but owner would not refund us. After we left. all our clothes stank like the house had to wash them twice. If it snows less than 4 inches, you have to shovel. Garbage only picks up one of the three cans a week, attracting "wild life" to the other two. The internet, tv and cell phone service is bad, cuts out often. This was the nastiest place we ever stayed, and we couldn't get out!

Throw a rock at holiday mountain!
Fantastic property, with lots of privacy. We were there for an extended weekend and absolutely loved the area. We went to the Mysteryland Festival and couldn't beat the convince. The homeowners made it super easy to book and answered all our questions quickly. Great getaway location for anyone looking for a quick escape. Planning another visit next year.

Great Fly fishing! Nicely finished home!
My wife and two kids went for a week to get away out of the city. I was VERY surprised by how nice the house was! The kitchen is nicely done and the furnishings are very tasteful. There is a nice fireplace in the living room.
There is one large bathroom and a 2ND smaller bathroom on the 1st floor of the house along with the master bedroom. Upstairs there are 2 additional bedrooms (queen beds) and a hallway galley bed (a twin mattress). There is also a small 1/2 bath upstairs as well which was very convenient. They have a basement that has a washer and dryer if you need it. The basement is unfinished but it's not like you spend time there. The furnace and oil tank are down there as well.
The WiFi worked great but cell service can be spotty. I have Verizon and sometimes I would lose signal. My wife has AT&T and hers worked fine with no issues.
The big draw for me was the Neversink river right in the front yard. I love to fly fishing and rarely get the chance. There is a set of stairs that lead right down to the river in the front yard! Also they allow pets so my dog (yellow lab) could come!
I caught about 25 trout (mostly Browns but a couple Rainbows) on the 1st two days using dry flies. Nothing huge, biggest one was 13 inches, but there were plenty of them. My son was with me and used a spinning rod and caught fewer fish but they were larger on average.
After fishing, we went to Holiday Mountain Ski & Fun Park. I was very surprised by how many things to do there was! Batting cages, go-carts, a rock wall, mini golf and bumper boats. The kids had a great time. The best part is you can simply walk down the road to the park.
I was surprised to see there is skiing and snowboarding in the winter. There will definitely be a return trip this winter, since the lift ticket prices were about $25 for the day and there are lights for night skiing!
Not much negative to say about the house. There are 2 empty houses on either side. One looks like it's been empty for a long time. But we met several people who live on the road while taking a walk and they were very nice. About half the road (maybe 10 houses) have permanent residents and the other half are small vacation homes.
The house is only an hour and 45 mins from us in NYC, so the convenience is beyond great. The owners are super nice and keep the house very clean. We will definitely go back!
