OPEN ALL WINTER A walk down a blue stone pathways leads to our charming cottage overlooking a beautiful spring fed lake. The cottage is surrounded by 50 year-old pine trees, perennials, and native (URL HIDDEN) is situated on our four-acre property with your own private 160 feet of lake front with canoe and 2 kayaks. Very private, quiet, serene, and just steps to lake front. Relax in the outdoor hot tub overlooking the lake.The cottage has an open kitchen, dining and sitting area with large pine beams, vaulted ceilings and a beautiful view of the lake or woods. The kitchen is fully equipped. The dining areas, both inside and out seat four to six people. The sitting area is very inviting, featuring a Vermont casting gas stove and a large, cozy window seat overlooking the lake and woods. The bathroom has a claw foot tub with shower, with all the amenities: hair dryer, ironing board, washer and dryer, plenty of bath and lake towels.

The bedroom on the main level has a full-size antique bed and sliding glass doors that lead out to the covered screened in porch overlooking the lake. The lake cottage also has a private patio with a hot tub, gas BBQ, and fire pit as well as your own private garden. Steps down from the cottage is a 60-foot cedar deck, a 12-foot by 12-foot pergola, and floating dock. There are lounge chairs, a table and chairs, a porch swing, and a hammock -- all private and overlooking the lake. Take a dip in the spring-fed lake which is clean and refreshing. Enjoy a paddle in the canoe or 2 kayaks. You may see painted turtles basking in the sun on fallen logs. Canadian geese and swans may swim by. If you wake up early, don't be surprised if you see wild turkeys, deer, fox, or red tailed hawks. They're all very common in our area.

The charming villages of Rhinebeck, Tivoli and Red Hook offer many choices for restaurants and nightly entertainment -- and are only about 15 minutes from our cottage.

Cute Cozy Cabin but bad experience
The painted turtle is a cozy, cute cabin on a beautiful little lake. Nonetheless, we encountered a issues with the cabin and host. When we arrived at check-in the cabin was not cleaned. All of the beds were unmade, dirty towels on the floor and trash in the kitchen. When I contacted the host she seemed to be apologetic at first saying, “I totally screwed up and didn’t tell [cleaning person] people were coming today… I will give you discount no questions asked”. She said she could try to get a cleaner to the cabin the following day. Despite the offer, we had to spend the first night washing bedding in the tiny washing machine- suffice it to say we were doing laundry all night instead of enjoying our vacation. Note host did not refund cleaning fee. An additional major concern was the heating. The weather while we were at the cabin was in the mid 30s during the day and below freezing at night. The only heating system for the entire cabin is a small mini-split located high-up on the wall in the A-frame shaped living room. All of the heat was stuck at the top of the cabin versus circulated throughout. There is no heating system what so all in the bathroom and first floor bedroom. While the loft is warmer than other parts of the cabin, it too was too cold at night and we had to wear hats etc while sleeping and still shivered throughout the night. The photos of the cabin show an electric fireplace, this fireplace has been turned off by the host and is therefore unusable.

Relaxing and romantic
This property is wonderful. Don't think we've ever stayed in such a nice little cottage where everything went so smoothly, to be honest! There are clear instructions for everything and the area and building are gorgeous. The owners make themselves available for questions, but the material they provide in the pre-visit PDF and binder at the property covers almost everything. The area is lovely and private, but not too far from grocery stores and other conveniences. It was a truly rejuvenating little mini-vacation.
