All 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, kitchen, deck and living areas are on the same level. Primary Bedroom: This 175 sf room comes with a vaulted ceiling, an incredible view, an ensuite bathroom with a soak-in tub with 13+ foot ceilings, and a king bed with a brand new Zinus 12" Green Tea Luxe Memory Foam Mattress.

Main Bathroom: The bathroom comes with a shower, sink, and toilet, and it is located in a very central spot, which can be easily accessed by all guests. This is not an ensuite bathroom. It is shared by the entire house. We provide towels (1 hand and 1 bath towel is a set, and we provide 2 sets per bedroom). We also provide hand towels, make-up towels, floor mats, and foot towels in both bathrooms. The house is also fully stocked with paper towels, toilet paper, tissue paper, hand lotions, soap, shampoo, conditioner, and body soaps. To access the main entrance of the house and the deck area, there is a staircase with 7 steps. There is no ramp. The basement level of the house is not for guests' use. It is unfinished and used as a utility room and storage. There is no access from inside the house to the basement level. Parking won't be an issue for you as our driveway can easily accommodate three cars. The driveway is short, and the main road is maintained by the town. They do a decent job at keeping it clean, and they remove all snow almost immediately. HOT TUB: It is a brand new hot tub that fits 4-5 people and purchased in April 2024. Our hot tub gets cleaned and chemically tested/balanced weekly by a professional company. Please pack your bathrobes and slippers since we don’t provide them. The house is available for you and the party you included in your initial application. We have a no-visitor policy under most circumstances. COMMUNICATION Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions at any time of the day. HOUSE RULES This is our home; we love it, and we want you to have a good time there, too. We believe if we follow some basic rules, we both would have a better experience. 1 - We have a strict no-shoes policy to keep the house clean. This includes the flip-flops you wear on the deck or grounds. We have light-colored carpets, linens, and furniture, so please refrain from walking outdoors with no shoes because you will carry dirt and mud inside the home in that case, too. 2 - Smoking, vaping or drugs are not permitted anywhere on the property, including the deck area. 3- No pets, please. 4 - No parties or events are allowed in the house. In addition, please keep the noise at a reasonable level. No portable loudspeakers or amplifiers are allowed indoors or outdoors or anywhere on the property. 5- Please be mindful of the furniture and fixtures. Keep them clean, and don't rearrange them. CHECK-IN / CHECK-OUT -Check-in is at 3 pm. -Check-out is at 11 am. TRASH We expect our guests to remove the kitchen/food trash before they leave. We have 2 large trash bins by the driveway/ road. Please tightly seal all plastic trash bags you use and place them in the trash bin by the road. The trash is picked up once a week on Fridays, and they can only access the trash bin by the roadside. GRILL We have a grill on the deck for your use. The grill top gets cleaned between each guest. We have grill tools in the kitchen. Use the grill carefully, and contact us if you have any questions. Please make sure to put the grill cover back on before you leave the house. FIREPLACE We have two wood-burning fireplaces, one indoor and one on the deck. For indoors, we provide one Duraflame fire log that ignites pretty easily and burns for 1.5 hours with less smoke and more consistency. Duraflame is a special type of firelog. Please read the instructions on the packaging carefully and ignite as it’s shown on the packaging. Do not remove the packaging. Don’t use more than one duraflame log in the indoor stove. The smoke will trigger smoke alarms. We don't provide firewood for outdoor fireplace. You can find Duraflame (or regular fire) logs at the nearby supermarket (Peck's supermarket). We recommend you use Duraflame because it is the easiest. Please do not use ignition liquids because they are very unsafe/unpredictable. Please be careful while starting a fire. Make sure you always attend to it and put the fire out before you go to sleep. You carry all the responsibility while using the fireplaces. Please contact us if you have any questions. AIR CONDITIONING In warmer months (between May and October), we install window AC units in every room. In colder months (or any time you feel cold), please turn on the heating by using the thermostats located in each room and in the bathrooms. We have electric baseboards, and the house warms up pretty quickly. It also maintains indoor temperatures very well, even -20F conditions, because it is a brand new house built with the newest insulation materials and technologies available. Other things to note The lot is 2.7 acres and feels very private yet safe since we have visual contact with neighbouring houses. The house is; 5 minutes to Jeffersonville 15 minutes to Bethel (Historic Site of the 1969 Woodstock Festival) 20 minutes to Livingston Manor 20 minutes to Roscoe We have some deer and bunnies visiting our lot frequently. You can most likely see them in the early morning. The house is in the middle of a diverse habitat, so there are bugs, flies, butterflies, spiders, bees and other insects around. It may be a good idea to bring your insect/bug repellents. We have fly nets at all doors and windows except the main bathroom window. No pets, please. One of our family members is very allergic to dogs and cats.
