C'est La Vie Lakeview with Optional Boat Slip
The view of the lake was amazing. She was very quick to respond if there was anything needed. I loved the recommendations that she sent over. We overall had a wonderful experience!

Lovely 2br Victorian - 5m to train / 3m to main
Would love to return to this site. It is bright and clean. We did not cook but the kitchen was ready for us if we wanted to. Nice stay.

Lakeside Studio on White Lake
What a great little studio for a Birthday get away trip to Bethel Woods concerts, etc. Relaxing on the deck overlooking the lake for coffee in the morning or a nightcap after your days activities. 2 restaurants within a 100 yards, the Tap n Table was excellent with really Friendly staff. Must have breakfast at least once at Bethel Market Cafe, the Best! All this less than 15 minutes in any direction. I would like to come back in the Summer to take advantage of the Lake activities. Wonderful stay!

Captain's Quarters at Mickey's Marina
We had a great say. Beautiful area. Tremendous lake which we enjoyed by kayak. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Nice sitting area outside and another on the front porch. We were here early June and so the eatery next store and another up the road were not open for the season quite yet. Great communication.

Waterfront Gem: 1BR w/Private Balcony & Serenity
The location was absolutely stunning! The river in the backyard created a very relaxing atmosphere. The bed was comfortable, and the space was clean. At one point, it rained, and I enjoyed sitting on the patio.

DeMew Townhouse in Historic Kingston
Such a fantastic stay right in the heart of Kingston! This apartment was exactly as described and incredibly clean. Easy to get to everything in and around Kingston. Tara was a responsive host with clear instructions on how to check in/check out.

Cozy 1 bedroom apartment in the Rondout Kingston
Clean, great location. Perfect for a weekend visit.

Just Around The Corner
Thank you to Heidi for hosting my family in her beautiful Airbnb. They went to New York to visit a sick relative and she made their stay a welcomed retreat from the hospital. If we ever need to go back to this area of New York we will definitely ask to stay at this Airbnb. Thank you again for your hospitality.

Private Hudson Valley Country Retreat
Our second time here. Great spot for our family of 4, and Sandy is very responsive

Lakefront Escape:Beach Access, Firepit, Kayaks
Truly a five star experience. We had such a wonderful time here; the location is great, serene, quiet. We particularly enjoyed the kitchen and living room space with a beautiful private view. Fiber internet was surprisingly fast relative to our expectations for such a rural area. Next time we need a space in the area we'll stay here without hesitation.
Woodstock Historic Artist Estate - The Pond House
No notes, incredible escape even in the pouring rain. The ambience, even down to the little things like walking through the door to classical music, was truly top notch.

Scenic River View Escape | New Paltz
I spent my birthday at this beautiful house and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The place was spotless and full of natural light, with lovely views that made the stay even more special. The atmosphere was peaceful and clean, and the house had everything we needed for cooking and relaxing. I truly felt at home and appreciated all the thoughtful touches. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a cozy, well-equipped getaway!

Delaware River Cottage
This was a short stay but we absolutely adored it. Having small things like extra amenities, leaving the farm fresh eggs for us, the succulent gift--it made me feel like I should have extended my stay if I had the time. I absolutely would love to re-book. We live in PA and this was such a short and scenic drive, and kept our dog safe and occupied. Highly recommended for families or couples!

Welcome to The Boathouse! Waterfront/Boats/Hot tub
we had a lovely time at Seth’s cottage by the river. Everything was very well appointed and comfortable. I think the beds were the best I’ve had an Airbnb. There was easy access to new Paltz and kingston. I have no hesitation in recommending Seth’s place.

Cozy guest suite bedroom plus living room
This is by far the best AirBnb I have ever stayed at! Elizabeth is a fabulous host and was unbelievably attentive and accommodating. The house is beautiful on a large plot of land with plenty of nature and breathtaking sites. The house was warm, inviting, and decorated beautifully. If you need a get away from the city, this is your place. I 100% will be coming by again.

Summer is calling! Lakefront/Hot-tub/1 hour to NYC
Wow! I booked this lovely home just a few days prior to needing it and it was all we expected and more. It has 2 private docks on the upper part of Greenwood Lake with Adirondack chairs right by the water. The lots are separated with fences and shrubs and so it seems very private. Heron, geese, ducks and other birds visited our dock and yard. The town of Greenwood Lake had what we needed: ice cream, beer (go to Friendly Beer for the best selection), a few restaurants/food trucks & a Dunkin. We loved the hot tub and appreciated the board games since the weather was rainy at times. Rules and checkout procedures were simple and clear cut and John was responsive and helpful when messaged on the app. Any issues we had were unforeseen and dealt with immediately. We would love to stay here again!

Hunter studio with a view
Perfect place for skiers. Cozy and very clean. Very close to the Hunter mountain. Karoline helped me with places to eat and was very attentive. 100% satisfaction. I will definitely be back!

Courtyard Overlook @ Spa Owners Residential Condo
Great stay! Joe was very responsive and it was a very easy check in and check out process. The space is just as described in photos and was the perfect room for a wedding at the hotel. Would stay again!

Trailside Tranquility at Hunter Mountain
Perfectly set up and spotless. The unit is supplied with everything you could possibly need. By far the best organized, supplied and clean Airbnb we have ever stayed in.

Black Creek Pool Hot Tubs Lake Wineries 09-23M
Gerry & Arlene were great hosts! They helped us find a location that fit our needs (walkable to the ski slopes). (We thought we originally booked a place right at Mountain Creek, but it ended up being across the street - so definitely a bit of a walk, but still not too bad.) We were celebrating our son's 13th birthday and the condo was perfect. The location allowed us to snowboard all day, come back to have pizza and birthday cake, then go right back on the slopes until closing. (We also left two pairs of our snowboard boots there...and they were extremely helpful in getting these back to us!)

Little Getaway at the Black Creek Sanctuary
Little getaway was wonderful. There was warmth as soon as we walked in, and that comfort lasted throughout our whole stay at the house. Diana was accommodating and available with any situations we had. We will definitely be coming back.

Perfect Catskills hiking getaway with fireplace
5 stars, 5 stars, 5 stars!! I would just like to say I’ve stayed in many Air B&Bs before, and this one is by far one of my favorites. The hosts are absolutely amazing. They are proactive in responding and really want you be be comfortable and making sure you have no issues. The price was 100% worth it. I love that they included board games as a part of the space, such a nice touch. The bathrooms and bedrooms were also so clean, and we enjoyed our stay. You can really tell the hosts put a lot of love and care into this place. I can’t say enough good things about them!

City stay in Hoboken - spacious
Aj's Airbnb is extremely quiet and in a fabulous location near Stevens and all of the restaurants on Washington Street. The apartment is spacious with a super comfy sofa and great view of a church steeple out of the windows. The bed is also comfortable and the bedroom has a lot of storage with two closets and a dresser--I appreciated the full length mirror as well. The elevator is such a bonus when traveling with luggage and the wide, open staircase is also very nice for coming and going. AJ was very receptive and responsive when I contacted him with a question.

*Great Reviews* Hunter Mtn. Clean Close Cozy Condo
Great host, responsive and accommodating! Place was clean and felt right at home away from home! Check in and check out was easy, parking on site, nice neighborhood, cozy place, will definitely be staying here again!
