My family loved our short stay at the Gunks Cottage. The place is clean, welcoming and comfortable. We enjoyed all it had to offer from the patio seating, grill, hot tub and pool. Highly recommend hiking the Gertrude's Nose and Millbrook Mountain trails in beautiful Minnewaska State Park and having dinner at Rough Cut Brewing Co.

Lovely relaxing stay! Kyle and Jasmine’s property was the perfect little get away; everything we needed was provided, the hot tub was a hit, and the couch was soooo comfy (very important). Had the weather cooperated we also would have loved to use the fire pit and deck area! The house was right down the street from Rough Cut brewing co which had great food and drinks too. My sisters and I have nothing but good things to say about the experience!

A Romantic Getaway We rented this place for a 4-day mid-week getaway to celebrate our anniversary. This was a perfect location that was near quaint little towns with farm to table restaurants, and a state park for hiking. We also loved that we were able to soak in the hot tub on a cool night afterwards, and warm up by the fireplace with a cup of tea. We really enjoyed our stay and have already recommended this place to our friends. Thank you!

Cutie Cottage This house is totally adorable and the backyard allowed for plentiful outdoor space too. Very close to great hiking. Highly recommend a trip to Anawaska Falls. Be sure to grab dinner at Gaby’s in Ellenville also.
