Lovely property with the Delaware River in the backyard. We went rafting only 5 minutes away and also the original Woodstock site is only 30 minutes away.

Beds are horrible, house is old but there has been zero upgrades since it was built. 1 bed room was so creepy that we just kept the door closed. Even my dogs were uncomfortable . They were glued to my wife. We even left a night early.
River on the other hand was fantastic.

The view was spectacular! Very peaceful. We even caught fish! The house had a lot of room. The kitchen was large so it fit all 7 of us. The checkin/check out process was easy. The property owner was super nice and helpful. We would definitely rent this again and recommend it to others.

The property is large, and the view is beautiful. However, do not stay during a heatwave because the AC is only in the bedrooms.

Great location, both the house itself and the area attractions. We really appreciated the owners personal greeting upon check-in and informing us about the area. We pre-planned a kayaking trip and hiking, but didn’t realize how close we were to Bethel (Woodstock) and didn’t know about the local Saturday farmers market. Those two attractions definitely added to our getaway!
Generally very clean, just missed a couple areas.
The main reason for 4 of 5 stars is basically the comfort of the beds in the older part of the house compared to my other house rentals over the years (in addition to mattress quality/age, no box spring or proper platform base led to unusual morning back aches). Other points of note: bocce and horseshoe areas were overgrown/not useable and the wifi didn’t work in the older part of the house.
Overall we enjoyed our time in Barryville!

We came for a quick visit with a family member in a wheelchair. The property worked well for her with a beautiful deck for enjoying the river and an accessible bedroom/bathroom. The original part of the house has beautiful wood and fire place and lots of character. The kitchen is stocked with nice pans.

I think this property would be very nice in the summer but for a rainy cold October weekend, the house was cold and everyone was cold at night… ie no extra blankets, no heat…

We spent a month in Barryville. The home is very. charming. The photos do not do it justice.

Older home on several levels with direct view and access of Delaware River. Host Julius lives nearby. Very nice older man. Weather very hot and rainy which made house very hot and humid. One AC in upstairs bedroom. Grab bars in master bath helpful. Bathtubs, toilets, sinks and sheets freshly cleaned prior to arrival. Washer and dryer in laundry off one bedroom. We most enjoyed river rafting from Reber Rafting nearby and tour of 1969 Woodstock site in Bethel Park. Playground on site with swings and games. Parking outdoors on site for two cars. We had fire pit fires and our own fireworks. Wood available for purchase on site. Fishing along the river bank. We used worms and lures. Hiking nearby. Npo bike trails nearby. Internet not strong enough for zoom or video conferencing. Desk surfaces available in several rooms. Phone could text most of the time, but not call. Back up land line present for emergencies. Collection of books and games helped pass the rainy times. Pet friendly. Grocery store in Eldred very important, as kitchen small and you need shop often. Suggest bring a big cooler to place on deck for beverages. Good rural family escape from NY city.

Very good - property was very helpful

The house was very spacious and clean, and the outdoor space was even more spacious and the river view was breathtaking (both from the living room and outside). Julius was a very helpful host with many local store/restaurant recommendations. Our kids enjoyed the playground as well.

We were only at the property for 2 nights, but thoroughly enjoyed our time there. Location is spectacular, right on the river. Julius was a great host

We loved this place, Julius so knowledgeable about places to go, restaurants . You must try the Homestead Restaurant and Back to Bakers, see the Zane Grey house and absolutely DO NOT MISS the Woodstock museum in Bethel Woods. Rafting is also a must and Julius can get you a discount. The house is basic, but evokes an earlier era with some beautiful furniture, plenty of fireplaces, great deck, comfy beds, playground next door for kids upstairs bedroom is awesome. TV is Roku which did take us old codgers a bit to figure out, right on scenic Rte 97 but not noisy and back big enough for friends and short staircase to second yard and water, didn’t see the eagles but did see fox and deer. Take the family there is room and have a blast. Nancy and Paul

To start off, Julius the owner was very welcoming and showed me and my family everything the property had to offer. He didn't take up too much of our time but wanted to make sure we felt comfortable. The house was terrific and had a great layout. We used the grill a couple times on the big deck which overlooked the giant property and the river. My family kept saying how peaceful and tranquil it felt. Between the deer, Bald eagles, ground hogs etc making appearances plus the fish we were catching was a huge bonus. Each night we all sat around the campfire and roasted marshmallows as the moon reflected off the river. What a sight by the way. We did an 11 mile kayak trip down the river which was so fun and scenic. We even passed the property which looked pretty cool from the water. VRBO allows up to 5 stars but I'm giving this property 10 stars. We will definitely be renting here again in the future!

Had a great time at this riverfront property. Great fishing location! Dog friendly and teens enjoyed sitting on the deck and observing nature.

Very comfortable house for 5 nights for our family of 4 adults. Nothing fancy but clean and everything we needed. Owner was very communicative and helpful. Of course the most wonderful thing about the property is the location. Back porch facing the river, huge back yard for games and lower level by the water, complete with fire pit. Just can't beat the setting.

What a great little spot! Cottage is spacious, clean and comfortable! Gorgeous views! I would love to spend all summer here! And I bet it’s super cozy in the cooler months! Thanks so much for the hospitality!

Eight of us went for my 40th birthday. Was dated but in good condition. Location was perfect. Spent most of our time in the river fishing and kayaking. Caught trout, walleye, shad, carp and tons of smallmouth.
Fire pit area was great. Outside seating accommodated our whole group.
Overall one of our best trips ever. Very satisfied.

Even though the house could use some TLC, you can't beat the location. We were sitting by the river with a fire the first night we arrived and an eagle flew down stream into some trees. Then a heron flew out going up stream and the eagle was chasing it. It rained most of the next day and we went to Bethel where Woodstock was held. Only about 30 minutes from the house and well worth the trip. It cleared up enough to eat hamburgers on the deck with the river and big yard as our backdrop. Our dog Bandit loved it and the walks along River Road and hanging out with us by the fire off the river. Great birthday and mothers day weekend get away.

What a beautiful location and property! We took all of our family (doggies and adult kids) even though it was cold; we enjoyed the scenery and warmth of the house! It was worth the time spent with family! Thank you Julius and wife!

We had a great stay with our family the first week in November (2 adults, 2 seniors (one in crutches!), and 2 kids aged 7 and 4). The first 2 days were super cold, but then we were blessed with 70 degree days the rest of the week!! The house is bigger than the photos portray. It's an older house with a very creaky loft and set of trundle beds up there. But overall, it was clean and comfortable. The host Julius was very helpful and hospitable. The indoor stove fireplace was great and we made an outdoor fire too one day in the riverside fire pit which was super fun. The lawn area is expansive (2 levels, one on the house level, the other down a flight of wooden steps to the river level). You can view the river and mountains from the living room! We visited the Eagle Observatory and Woodstock site while we were there and had a great time. We fished in the river (no bites but we were fishing with the kids from the shore where it was fairly shallow). The tubs do not stop up, just a heads up for families with kids hoping to use the bath tubs. Kitchen was useable but the dishwasher was kind of a hassle to use and didn't clean the dishes very well (not a major issue for a short stay). Overall, we had a great relaxing time and wish we could have stayed longer! Thanks again Julius!!

If you enjoy nature and love being outdoors, this is the perfect small town getaway. The property is beautiful with tiered levels all overlooking the river, and there are wonderful hiking trails and sights nearby. We had a wonderful vacation - thank you Julius & Linda!
