My husband and I were very happy with our stay here. Sara was a communicative and flexible host, even before we arrived. The place matched our expectations from the listing. The cottage was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed for our multiple day stay.
Beautifully clean, well decorated home with comfortable furniture and beds. Coming from the flat lands of the midwest, the hills and curves to get to the home (especially in the dark) are something to be aware of. I was glad my husband was driving. Would definitely recommend to other. Wish could have stayed longer and explored the outdoors more.
Had a great time. The hiking in the area is awesome. Plus spending down time with my sons in this cozy will equipped home is just what the doctor ordered. Loved the house and surrounding area.
This property is a serene location in the Hudson Highlands that has convenience and good proximity to stores & multiple communities in the area. This home had everything we were looking for and was very comfortable for us. Our host was great too!
Super clean property with very comfortable beds! It's about a 30 min drive to West Point on some beautiful roads! We cooked our meals at the house and had everything we needed. Did I mention that the beds were very comfortable?!
The cottage was perfect for our weekend trip to visit our son at West Point. A picturesque drive to West Point, the cottage was so cute and was full of thoughtful amenities. Had we had the time to cook, the kitchen was stocked with spices, condiments, and cooking oils to make it easy to do so. The complimentary coffee was perfect as we arrived late and the stores were closed. The host was easy to contact and so kind and thoughtful. We will definitely book again.
Great, clean house, nice accommodating host. Would stay here again.

Loved the Putnam Cottage!
I would give more stars if I could, this was the perfect place for our long weekend! The cabin was very homey and inviting, and everything was so clean. The heated bathroom floor was a very nice surprise! The location was perfect as there was plenty do to close by (walk to the lake, grab a bite from the Putnam Market) and also a short trip from some of the other destinations we wanted to visit. Thank you for a great experience, we would love to come back!
Very charming home with all the necessary amenities needed. I can tell the owners paid close attention to detail and they were very quick to respond whenever I had a question. Very pleasant stay and I will definitely be staying here again on our next trip.
The cottage was nice and reflected what was seen in the pictures. Host was responsive, attentive and checked in from time to time to see if we needed anything.
My wife and I had an extended stay in July 2023. We experienced the heaviest rainfall in Putnam Valley in a 100 years! The cottage has a great location, and I loved exploring all the haunts of my childhood, from hiking in Fahnstock to dining on the waterfront in Peekskill.
The house met our needs. We were up visiting with children and grandchildren from Florida. Only issue was the heat. Don’t think house is well insulated. First 3 days were cold and heat wouldn’t get above 72 (we are from Florida!). Upstairs thermostat can’t be changed (67 degrees). TV is not cable, you must use YOUR streaming services. Driveway is a little tricky. Would rent again. Kitchen is well appointed and met all of our needs. Only negative was the initial checkin. We arrived at 2pm, but lock wouldn’t let us in till 4pm. Had to go cool our heels at Panera for two hours.
