This was my second stay at Andrea’s beautiful modern house in South Salem. It was a great place to get away from the city to relax, catch up with my family and get a little work done. The house is really clean and functional. I loved the patio and the deck which was great for coffee in the morning and a little yoga. Really loved waking up to the sound of birds and the wind blowing the trees. Also loved the wood stove since it’s not quite Spring yet and it was nice to have a fire to read in front of. We also loved having a grill, although it was a little too chilly to eat dinner on the patio (maybe next time). Andrea was really easy to deal with and we had everything we needed at the house. It’s only about an hour and fifteen minutes from our place in Manhattan, the WiFi is good and it definitely provides an escape to the country side experience. We will definitely be back soon so we can explore the nearby towns of Pound Ridge, Ridgefield and New Canaan, as well as do some hikes in Ward Pound Reserve and maybe try to get dinner at Jean George’s place - the Inn at Pound Ridge which is supposed to be great.
