I will say that although you could walk to downtown Woodstock, there are no sidewalks and I personally would not have felt safe walking down the road to town, especially since there is little shoulder. ##### Catherine H.

Wonderful ambiance, great mattress, generously-appointed kitchen. Only caveat is that the ceilings are quite low in some spots — especially the kitchen entrance and the upstairs loft-style bedroom.

Also, filling all of the soap dispensers with water to dilute is really budget. It's cute. Great wood burning stove. But just didn't feel like it was worth the price or up to the standards of other vacation rentals I've stayed at in the area and in this price point. I just never felt...clean. ##### Michael Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carolyn H.

Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Kevin B. Feb 2, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Quaint, tranquil get away with interesting history The cottage was a great place to stay with great easy access to downtown Woodstock, Kingston, and Rhineback. Lots of attention to detail by the owner. For example, there are plenty of kitchen utensils and dishes and tons of books and DVD's. The DVD's are displayed in alphabetical order and there are multiple heat zones that enabled the bathroom to independently be very warm while keeping the remaining zones more temperate. The place has everything you need for a cozy stay. The only challenge was the very low ceiling clearance over the bed and steep stairs to the upper level where the bed is. For older and or physically challenged folks this may pose a bit of a challenge. Definitely recommend this great little get away. ##### Kevin B.

It was everything we'd hoped it would be. Quaint and cozy and full of sunshine. Loved cooking in the kitchen and eating in sunlit breakfast nook. Wonderful selection of books, games, and DVD's . Especially loved the book \`Woodstock, History and Hearsay\`because it is about the cottage and the family that loves it. Appreciated that we could recycle and compost. The woodstove is awesome! Hated to leave and can't wait to come back Thanks again for a wonderful stay.

Sep 8, 2015 #### Lovely, clean, easy and wonderful! This was a wonderful getaway: very clean, cozy and lovely, it had everything you would need to cook, and all the furniture was very comfortable. We felt completely relaxed being there and a nice surprise was the enormous number of DVDs. We loved how quiet it was, except for the cars at commuter times because it's just off the road. The only thing that was different from the pictures was the backyard: beyond the grill, it's the backyard for another little house. We went to town for food, but Woodstock is pretty tacky. It's gorgeous driving around that area, though, and there are many nice other villages. ##### k d. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Charlie W. Jun 6, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### You'll be so glad... ...that you came to stay at Herb Cottage. Not an exaggeration to say that it's a magical place. Set in a gorgeous, quiet, woodland neighborhood that is a quick walk from the lively Woodstock downtown, it's perfect for a solo retreat or a couple's get-away (which was our situation). It has everything you need for a restorative, comforting stay and feels like an actual home, not a rental unit. Powerful woodstove warmed up our mornings. Big comfortable bed in the loft. Wonderful collection of books tucked in everywhere as well as a huge array of throw-back BluRay video disks for the TV. Loved everything about it. Wish we could have stayed for a week! ##### Charlie W. Stayed 3 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Adriane G.
