New Paltz in the Woods

We had a terrific weekend. The house was clean, modern and very accommodating. We loved the layout of the home and all of its amenities. The location was a short drive to town and we had plenty of space on the deck to enjoy the beautiful trees and land. The deck even had a view of the river.

Spring Break in New Peltz

The family was very impressed with the house and this was a great place to stay. I never that French Press coffee and this was the best coffee. Each day my daughter wanted me to make her a cup. This was a great Vrbo fine. Thank you Serg and Mary for hosting my family.

Secluded yet near town!

Our group of 4 adults and 3 kids had a lovely stay at this property. It was a nice setup for two families with plenty of beds and bathrooms and a great open space for the kitchen and living room.The house itself was very clean and felt secluded despite being a quick drive from the bustle of New Paltz. The large deck had a great view of the river and the kids enjoyed the screened-in hot tub!Serg and his team responded quickly to my questions via the VRBO app and offered their help if we needed ideas for activities or restaurants.Overall, it was a very pleasant experience and I would be happy to book one of Serg's properties again!

Fun Friends Weekend in the Gunks!

We were 4 couples celebrating good times and we were VERY happy at this lovely, secluded house. The big, airy living room was fantastic to hang out together comfortably. The view of the river from the deck was just starting to burst green in late April. We were very appreciative of the yoga mats, and one of us led a class right there in the living room. Kitchen was well-appointed, and we appreciated the whole bean coffee and tea provided, but our group was divided on one thing: those of us versed in the ways of the French Press were thrilled. The others...not so much, but they survived! We had one issue that required attention, but the contact person responded and instructed his crew to care of the problem that same day. One other thing: this house has simply the cleanest hot tub that I have ever seen, and those of us who partook truly enjoyed it. Overall, a great weekend!
