This is the second schoolhouse on this property, the first one was built in 1867. Purchased in 2001 in derelict condition the house has been extensively restored single handedly by the owner and is heated almost exclusively with wood . The Hancock area was once a popular vacation destination and many traces of the O&W railway can be found in the area largely unchanged since that time The garden has a fence around the front and north side and we are dog friendly.We have streams running on both our South and West sides, meeting in front of our SW corner and running half a mile down to the Delaware River where one can enjoy fishing, canoeing or kayaking and swimming all summer long.

Each room in the Cadosia Schoolhouse brings different emotions out of a large group of people. Spending time in each of the unique spaces will bring your loved ones closer than you ever thought possible. Places like this just don’t exist anywhere else. My friends and I will definitely be back again.

Me and 9 friends stayed here and got to play music all weekend. Had a great time. The place is so unique and we all loved it. Get the old band together and rent this place for a weekend it’s a blast!

We had a family reunion nearby, and needed larger and more flexible lodging. Nick was gracious and kind, always informative, and we found the experience to be very special and memorable! So much to see inside the schoolhouse and not nearly enough time! The only thing that I would emphasize is that you MUST be able to do stairs. We didn’t mind a bit, and called it our “gym”, but if you cannot do them, I’d try another place. Thanks Nick!!

We loved that we were able to gather comfortably together as a large group (20) as well as break off in smaller groups for a jam session, play pool, watch tv and/or cook. We enjoyed the uniqueness of the building, the quick responsiveness of the owner and especially the beautiful dining table which allowed us to all sit together for meals. We relaxed around the fire pit chatting and listening to music late into the evenings. We played cornhole (our boards), frisbee and other activities throughout the day. This old schoolhouse is a good location for a private, group gathering. Thanks! We hope to return!

A group of 15 (including 7 teenagers) enjoyed the cozy and quirky vibe of this old schoolhouse. We cooked and enjoyed all our meals together in the spacious kitchen, jammed to the best of our ability in the music room, and played pool tournaments and board games throughout our stay. The sound system in the kitchen was so appreciated and we loved looking through the vinyl collection and other collectibles throughout the house. Our dogs also enjoyed their time. We had no problem at all keeping warm with the stoves. We were super toasty! The listing description and reviews other guests left prepared us for what to expect. We all appreciated Nick's hospitality and telling us about the history of the house and himself. We made memories together that we will never forget.
