Family-friendly vacation rentals in Monterey

This was our second year staying here with friends, and we had such a lovely time. There's plenty to do inside the house itself even on a dreary day, with curiosities and art abound, instruments, games, fireplace, etc, a great kitchen for group meals, and spacious and comfortable rooms otherwise. Olia is very kind and responsive, with plenty tips for the local area. We'd recommend for groups or families in an instant. Nothing like relaxing in the hot tub while looking out at the mountain vista with rain pattering on the porch roof above - pure bliss.

A beautiful, cozy, very well-stocked home. Remote enough to feel like you're in the country but in proximity to so many great activities on offer in Copake and Hudson. A special place. We had a wonderful stay.

Enrique's place was conveniently located near Rhinebeck, but alao far enough away that it was peaceful and quiet. Worth having a drink in the tavern at Beekman Arms and breakfast sandwiches at Rhinebeck Bagels. We especially enjoyed the hot tub. Enrique was a wonderful, informative host, and available if we needed (we didn't). Overall, we had a nice, relaxing weekend.

What a gorgeous stay. My partner and I celebrated our five year anniversary here and each detail was perfect. The home is wonderfully curated, with stunning art, decor, puzzles, plates, you name it! And by the window, the feeders attract all kinds of birds that I’ve never seen so up close. Woodpeckers, cardinals, chickadees. You hardly need the TV, it’s so entertaining. The place is spotless and serene. And Rosy is so responsive while giving you complete privacy! You can tell she really cares about the experience she provides. If you’re looking to stay in an artfully cozy home, this is the place.

A peaceful location with chill activities for all ages...we enjoyed the phonograph, the retro Atari, the hot tub, the window bird feeder, and watching birds in the spacious yard and conservation area. Herons, hawks, and songbirds viewed. The hot tub was sparkling clean, and the linen robes were a thoughtful touch. Wifi worked great. We arrived late but instructions for entry were crystal clear. Virginia answered my questions promptly and warmly. Definitely a winner.

We really enjoyed our stay at this lovely house!! So many cozy nooks and Miles and Ruth were very responsive and helpful hosts! Would definitely stay again :)

This is at least our 4th time staying at what we call "The Farm" and it is our favorite getaway! We even got my brother to drive 1.5 hours out of his way on his family trip to Boston so he could check it out. A rare gem!

We really can’t say enough about Jackie’s place. Beautiful and peaceful surroundings. The home is well appointed and comfortable. The place is so nice we actually cancelled our plans for Saturday night just to stay in and enjoy the vibe. Spent part of the evening just relaxing in the hot tub looking at the amazing night sky!! The kitchen had everything we needed to cook dinner and a nice selection of pots and pans. Would highly recommend. Jackie was very responsive and easy to reach.

Super responsive management of property. It was a very rainy weekend, so my daughter and I really enjoyed the large TV with the option of many streaming channels. Bed was comfortable and the place was neat and clean. Fantastic location as well.

The place is ideal, even if the weather isn't great the house is really spacious and cozy. Laurence and Ilze were communicative and very sweet, would love to come back!

Lovely place in Saugerties, close to lots of great hiking and restaurants.

Donna's place was a wonderful weekend stay! Beautiful property and guest house. Well appointed and care for. Just a few improvements that would have made our stay even better--a small microwave for quick reheating of coffee/leftovers, a luggage rack and place to store/hang clothes, and ensuring the driveway and a walking path are cleared of snow even when out of town (with thawing and refreezing, we had to navigate two inches of solid ice, which was terrifying both on foot and in the car).

A lovely house in a private location. Our kids loved the games, watching movies on the projector, and watching deer from the window. The kitchen was well equipped and everything was comfortable.

Was in the area to visit family and this was a perfect location for me. Had just what my family needed to have a great weekend

My daughter and I loved our stay so much. The setting is so beautiful and peaceful. I loved listening to all the bird song and my daughter loved the fish! Such a cozy, comfortable home. We loved our relaxing time here. Gabriele is a fabulous host, so responsive and so kind. Thank you!!

I visited this beautiful place for valentines weekend and it was absolutely amazing, nice and clean kitchen equipped with all you need if you want to cook and the rooms were nice and cozy. Also this is a lake house so you have a beautiful view and you can enjoy outside too. We had a great time. I would only suggest to get the drive way clean from the ice/snow during winter time it was a little bit dangerous walking to our cars.

My group loved our stay at Alan and Cara’s place for the Sheep & Wool festival. Great space for a large group; we especially loved how comfortable the living room couches were and how there was space for everyone there to gather. The place was immaculately clean. We’d love to come back again!

Great place. As described. Met our expectations.

Overall the place was very nice to stay at. Hosts/Property manager were EXCELLENT communicators (we had an issues and they had solutions within 30 minutes). Close to supermarket (right down the street), along with close to being downtown Saugerties, resturants and getting on the thruway. Would recommend for families.

Tina’s place is fabulous. The modern decor and architecture is beautiful. The location is peaceful and the fenced in yard was amazing; our dog loved roaming around and exploring. The outdoor space is great for grilling and sitting around the fire pit. We especially loved the kitchen. It is fully appointed and the kitchen island is incredible for prep and serving. The washer dryer combo was an excellent touch and we were able to do a couple of quick washes so that everything was clean and ready to unpack at home. Saving the best for last; the soaker tub in the master bedroom is luxurious and relaxing. Thank you, Tina. We can’t wait to visit again soon.

We had a terrific stay. The house was exactly as advertised.

This wonderful antique home is in a Beautiful spot in the heart of Litchfield CT, and a delight early spring when the fields of daffodils awake! This unique 1793 house has a great view & sunset, fireplace, simple spa/gym making it a gem even when the pool is closed. Nearby the town with lots to offer and local farms for food shopping too. What’s not to love 💛 Bonus is a great host offering a home that is in touch with the realities of rentals, pets and people -not picky, precious or punitive. Happy to recommend and return! Thank you Elizabeth!

We spent three nights at Rich and Sheila's place and it was an amazing getaway. Our apartment was perfect-clean and comfy. We loved the proximity to the creek and the pool was a huge bonus! Rich and Sheila were both responsive and welcoming. We look forward to a return trip.

We had a great stay at the Hollywood Bungalow. House was described accurately and had so many thoughtful touches to make us feel welcome. Diana met us upon arrival and walked us around the property and the house. Such a great host! She had generously provided snacks, treats and gave a thorough overview for our stay. We were primarily focused on skiing at Jiminy Peak which was a short 20 minute drive. We also brought our 5 year-old rescue who had the best vacation of her life. She was able to use the fenced-in backyard to run around off leash and even meet a new friend when Jackson's dog visited. Diana even shoveled walking paths in the yard throughout our stay so we could get around in the high snow. The Screening Room is awesome and provided hours of entertainment. Quiet street and picturesque location. We will definitely return.
