TESTIMONIALS

"This Airbnb is beyond phenomenal!! Our family gathered together from California and New York to celebrate my birthday and Thanksgiving and rented the whole place. Shawn went beyond all expectations getting us everything we needed to cook. Complimentary water, milk, and even non-dairy substitutes were very much appreciated!! The chickens and goats were a special treat for the kids. The beds in all the room were very comfortable. A truly unique combination of modern comforts and history. Wonderfully decorated!! I wouldn’t hesitate to come back."

MARY & TIM

"Phenomenal stay at the Old Catskill Game Farm! We stayed there as a group of 14 and have never experienced such nice and welcoming hosts. It was the perfect place for a large group given the number of bedrooms and bathrooms. House was exceptionally clean and welcoming! We hope to be back soon!"

CAROLINE

"I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect location and amazing hosts. The rooms are huge and comfortable. The history of the location is amazing. The owner and groundskeeper did everything they could to make our stay amazing. They even gave me A special birthday touch (bouquet of flowers and fresh muffins). And the roaming goats! We kept looking out for them!

Thank you so much! You made my birthday weekend spectacular."
