About this house rental

This spacious, elegant, lakefront log home sits tucked away on a secluded 56-acre mountain retreat, surrounded by hundreds of acres of state-owned and protected forest and rolling hills. The house looks out onto a beautiful, private 7-acre lake where you can swim, boat and fish. After grilling up your dinner on the oversized deck, relax in Adirondack chairs at the lakeside fire pit and watch the stars come out with only the sounds of crickets, frogs, and the occasional owl to keep you company. Situated midway between Woodstock (yes, that Woodstock!) and Cooperstown (home of the Baseball Hall of Fame), Spruce Lake Farm is 5 minutes from the farming village of Bovina Center, 10 minutes from a premier 18-hole golf course, and 15 minutes from supermarkets, antique shops, fine dining and boutique shopping in the lovely towns of Andes and Delhi. Children will love the tree house, play set and beach, adults will love the total peace and quiet, and everyone will love the stand-up paddleboards, row boat and numerous forest trails. High-speed FiOS internet and broadband WiFi are included so that you can work and attend school remotely while being surrounded by nature.

Main level: The main level of this six bedroom, four bathroom house has a wonderful open floor plan and provides the perfect space for enjoying meals, entertaining and relaxing by the huge stone fireplace. The ceilings here are 35 feet high with rustic beams and views of the lake, and overhead is a spacious loft which serves as a library, office and reading area. Also on the main level are the kitchen and dining area, a log-walled bedroom with adjacent full bathroom, a TV room, and an airy sunroom and library area as you enter the house.

Upper and lower levels: The upper level of the house has three bedrooms, one of which includes a loft for extra sleeping space, and two full bathrooms. The lower level boasts a huge master bedroom with en suite full bathroom, and leads out onto a beautiful stone patio overlooking a flower rock garden. The lower level also includes a rec room with ping pong table and foosball table, and a laundry room with two sets of high-efficiency washers and dryers.

Play area and lake: The play area has a tree house, slide, swing, tandem swing, trapeze and bench swing. The lake has a small sandy beach, two stand-up paddleboards and a row boat. Life jackets for adults and children, as well as beach toys, are available for all.

Take walks along our private half-mile driveway and through the manicured pine forest across the lake. Numerous hiking and biking trails and dirt roads are available on the surrounding hills, as well as throughout the valley below. The Catskill Scenic Trail is a flat, gravel rail-to-trail system that starts at the bottom of Scutt Mountain and runs alongside the Little Delaware River to the scenic town of Stamford. A nature preserve run by the local college is only 10 minutes away. Local maple syrup, honey and jam are available along many nearby roads.

It was exactly what we wanted. We all had a wonderful time and enjoyed the private location. We brought our Saint Bernard with us and she had so much fun, being able to run the big property.

Spruce Luke Farm has become our annual family reunion spot! The house is big with space for everyone. It is perfectly situated on a beautiful private piece of land with a big deck right beside the lake with beautiful views. Wonderful place to get away and reconnect with family! Adam has been great to deal with and Heinz, the home caretaker, is also very helpful.

The house is very large and with our party of 8 adults, we never once felt crowded. The view from the windows facing the lake is gorgeous and relaxing. We all enjoyed walking around the property and exploring the pine forest area. We even saw the large snapping turtle in the lower pond. The younger people used the row boat and paddle boards and most of us swam in the lake a bit. It’s so secluded and private that we never had to worry about noisy neighbors. We enjoyed the ping pong and football tables as well. We took a couple of day trips into Delhi and Hobart and we drove over to Putt Putt Van Winkle, all of which were great. We even visited Cooperstown, which was about an hour away. The kitchen is nice, but there a couple of things we didn’t find, like a baking sheet or enough storage containers for leftovers, but we made do. The weather was very hot during our stay, and without air conditioning, the house was also very hot. We could definitely have used more fans. We spent more time outside because of this, which was fine as it was nice place to be outside. We were asked to bring our own towels, which we did, but we neglected to bring wash cloths, so bring some along with you. All in all, we had a very enjoyable stay. The hosts were very nice and communicative.

The property is absolutely perfect for a NY state get away. The house itself is Beautifully amd well designed, to entertain guests at an upscale level. Plenty of room for everyone to sleep. As well as plenty of room to hang out, for instance the friday night we were there it poured but we had no problem because we sat in the beautiful grand living room and watched a divine thunderstorm light up the sky and forest, epic! The giant yard with lush grass lawn leading down to the lake is perfect to play games and enjoy with the family (football, baseball, cornhole, etc). And finally the 6acre pond is a absolutely perfect place to teach a kid to fish or swim and enjoy. Not to mention hiking around the propety itself is a great experience too! Adam the owner was very nice and very easy to get in touch with! I will definitely be looking to rent this property again!

This was our 6th trip to Spruce Lake and we can't wait to go back in 2024. The property is perfectly equipped for all weather conditions plus a big kitchen great for cooking for a crowd. It's a really special place.
