Lovely Old Home
I love old homes and their quirky aspects like squeaky floors and doors also the peaceful surroundings. The house was very convenient to Kingston and amenities. Loved the house and neighborhood, I would definitely stay there again!

Great Family Getaway
This house was indeed charming as promised. It was a good fit for our family of four. The nice, big eat in kitchen was a great gathering spot. The kids loved the tiny kid-sized room with the puzzle floor and my 9 year old daughter opted to sleep there rather than in a room of her own. Everything is very kid-friendly and we appreciated touches like having a stool in the bathroom so our 3 year old could reach the sink.
Be warned that the water REALLY smells bad, and come prepared with bottled water for drinking. The house is kind of in the middle of nowhere. Very peaceful if that's what you're looking for, but you will have to drive 15 minutes to get anywhere.
This was the first time I've stayed at a professionally managed property and it was much more like a hotel experience. It was nice not to have to wash the linens or vacuum before we left. And we were VERY happy to find the bottle of wine left on the counter after the long drive.
We had a great time and would definitely stay here again!

Nice neighborhood
The location was good, the neighborhood was quiet, the WiFi was good, the house was roomy, the beds were comfortable, and the property management was very responsive and helpful. On the down side, Hilltop House could use a thorough deep clean both inside and out. For anyone interested in walking/hiking, be aware that the phrase “right next to the Empire State Trail” in the property description equates to 2.9 miles, which is either a 5-minute drive or a 1-hour walk.
