A Wonderful Place, Especially for the Holidays
We searched for a rental house that would accommodate our multi-generational family for a Christmas celebration. We could hardly have found a better place than Beaverkill Manor. The bedrooms are comfortable, and each has either a private bathroom or easy access to a larger shared bathroom. This is not one of those rental homes in which the owners cram as many beds, bunkbeds, futons, and trundles as possible into the space. This house is set up more like a bed-and-breakfast. There are three parlors/living rooms, and the large kitchen contains just about everything guests could need.
The Christmas tree was real, fully decorated and set up in the foyer at the bottom of the front staircase. This made the perfect setting for our family to come downstairs on “Christmas morning.” All 18 humans and three dogs posed on the long staircase for our annual photo in matching pajamas. Snow fell throughout the day, and there were snow shovels and sleds that our family used on the backyard hills.
One negative: One of the rooms offered for sleeping is a parlor on the main floor with a futon, which our family found extremely uncomfortable. It's best not to count on that room for sleeping.
The place was very clean and well-maintained—not easy in such a large and intricate house! We highly recommend Beaverkill Manor if the location suits your needs. For a family Christmas weekend in the country, it's very nearly perfect.
