The lower level of the house was perfect for the teenagers. We all enjoyed the homemade ice cream shop in town. And although some of us we're way too young to know what Woodstock was, they still enjoyed the visit there. ##### Debra W. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kristi M.

From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with breathtaking snowy views and a warm, inviting atmosphere inside. The home was spotless, beautifully decorated, and stocked with everything we needed for a comfortable stay.The fireplace made for the perfect cozy nights, and the large windows offered stunning views of the winter landscape.

May 30, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Heavenly Getaway This was the best stocked kitchen and vacation house I have ever stayed in. Kayaks for the lake were ready for us and we used them every day. We prepared our meals with no loss of utensils or cookery. The kitchen was large enough for several of us to be working at once and the dining area both inside and outside was just right for our group of six. The neighbors are all very friendly and everyone we passed on our walks around the lake were most friendly. Smiles and waves from everyone. There were cute docks to sit on and in some locations benches on boulders that made for wonderful meditation moments. ##### Mary V.

My friends and I stayed at Kevin and Laura's home in Bethel, NY and our stay could not have been better! We were a group of 9 friends gathering for a pre-Thanksgiving celebration. We cooked all weekend in the beautiful, open chef's kitchen with a great view of the lake and foliage. Kevin and Laura had all the amenities we needed-- from whisks, potato mashers and butcher knives to wine glasses and carafes! Kevin and Laura were so pleasant to work with and quick to respond to any questions about the house. We are hoping to make Kevin and Laura's house part of our new Friendsgiving tradition! ##### Hannah S. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christopher C., Flushing, USA Aug 11, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful Lake House Getaway We had such a wonderful stay at Kevin's Bethel Lake House. The location is perfect. So quiet and peaceful. Just far enough to getaway from the busy city but close enough that it's such an easy drive. The house was everything we imagined and more. On the days getting caught in the rain there is plenty to do in the game room/ basement but the real gem is the lake across the road. Seeing all the deer was so much fun. Glad we opted to stay here rather than the busier area at White Lake, although it's close enough to enjoy the great restaurants over there. The only regret is not booking more days. Kevin was a great host and was easy to contact for any questions we had and for when I stupidly left the car lights on when loading and our battery died. Be forewarned cell service can be very shoddy in the house but we enjoyed being disconnected for the few days we were there. Looking forward to staying there again. ##### Christopher C.

The house couldn’t have had anything else. I was so delighted. I was able to take my two dogs with me too. It’s hard to find a place that allows fur people. If I have a reason to go back to Smallwood, I would definitely book it again. Thanks, Kevin. ##### Lori J. Stayed 5 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jesse W.

It’s so nice to have a home away from home to celebrate. It’s spacious, clean, has a well stocked kitchen, plenty of bedrooms for my extended family, and has plenty of things to do for the little kids. We also traveled with our little dog, and the well lit exterior made taking the dog out at night very easy. Kevin is also very responsive to my questions. The conveniences of the space have families in mind and are well thought out. Thanks again Kevin! ##### Jesse W. Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joe G.

What an amazing experience it was for our Siberian husky Luna. Looking at or being near, the lake is very cathartic, and all that we had hoped for. Inside there’s not a single amenity missing or anything you could possibly need. The host was easy to communicate with very kind and open. Very easy to work with Kevin and I will be in touch with him soon to book my next vacation!! ##### Cara A. Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elizabeth M.

Plenty of space to sit together or spread out. Inside or outside. Very quiet location. Everything was clean and well stocked. The only thing to take note of is there is only air conditioning in one bedroom. The rest of the house does not have AC and we had to look for fans. The whole house exhaust fan worked okay to take the edge off. You also need to cross a very small country road to get to the lake. It is not attached to the actual property. Not much room for sitting there as a group. We had a wonderful day in spite of that. Thanks so much! We would return ##### Elizabeth M. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### cathy s.

This was a great location for a visit to Bethel and Woodstock. The home and amenities were great. Kevin was quick to respond to any questions. Our last night we were able to enjoy a great fire by the fire pit and enjoy our wine and some music. Highly recommend this getaway! ##### Gary A.

This house was exceptional. Everything anyone could want and more. The lake is literally across the street and the view from the deck is just beautiful. It rained one day and we spent the afternoon in the basement playing pool and foosball. Rode to Woodstock and did a little shop browsing and had dinner at one of the local restaurants. Walked along the wooded path in back of the house. So peaceful. And deer came into the yard on the morning we were going to leave! They also passed by on the road every day while we watched from the kitchen table. Oh! Almost forgot. The beds are soooooo comfortable. Slept like a baby. We are already making plans to come back! ##### Julia M. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### JOHN G.

Kitchen supplies were plentiful{plates, utensils, paper goods, cooking supplies all plentiful\]. House was spotless and well maintained. my 2nd stay there and it won't be the last. Easy to get to and close to all in Bethel. ##### JOHN G. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mary Jean F.

The lake and the community was so quiet and peaceful. The house have everything you might need. There was 6 of us including a small child and there was plenty of room to have a space for yourself. We would definitely rent again. Wouldn’t even think twice about going with even more people. ##### Jennifer S. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carl M. Jun 26, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Immaculate property with incredibly attentive host! Kevin was outstanding to work with, providing not only the details on how everything in the house worked, but literally PAGES of "things to do" in the quaint neighborhood around the home. The house and property itself are immaculately kept up with, and stocked with all the necessities for a week of off-the-grid living. The neighborhood is remarkably quiet, and buried deep in the woods of the Catskills, with a short drive to a few convenience stores, gas stations, and restaurants for the necessities -- and a reasonable drive from Walmart, casino, golf courses, Woodstock museum, and lots more for those who don't like to be "stuck in the house" all week. While the lake has a notable algae bloom that they're working on correcting, it's stocked with plenty of bait-sized fish to keep the hobby fisherman happy. My only suggestions for improvement at this home would be to move the WiFi router upstairs for better coverage in the yard and master bedroom; a detachable shower head in the upstairs bath since it's so low (my wife and I are 5'5" and 5'2" respectively, and had to crouch or kneel to wash our hair, but fortunately the downstairs bathroom is just fine); and a murphy bed or some other more comfortable sleeping option in the basement (the two adults sleeping down there said the bunk beds were not very comfortable). If these things aren't dealbreakers to you, run -- don't walk -- to this property for your getaway. It's an understatement to say you won't be disappointed! ##### Carl M.

Everything from booking questions, to questions while at the house, to leaving was seamless. Kevin had recommendations for any questions that we had and was always prompt in responding. The house has everything that you could need for a stay. The walk around the lake is beautiful. The kids loved the downstairs rec room. We all loved seeing the deer and bald eagles. We can't wait to go back again! ##### Vickie M.
