It was out of town so it didn’t feel like we were cramped in the city but only 20 minutes from all the food and shopping. We live in the country so it felt like home away from home. Unfortunately my whole family got sick day 2 there so we didn’t get to enjoy the trails. ##### Victoria S.

Probably 1000 feet back from the road it is private and quiet. The owners raise free range chickens that will run happily to you if you decide to feed them. There are fresh eggs in your rental and honey from their bees. ##### Kent B.

It is beautiful and the grounds are beautiful. It is very peaceful here. A wonderful escape from the city life. And, it's still close to major shopping outlets and towns. The hosts are generous, welcoming you with fresh eggs. They respond immediately to all your questions/needs. I highly recommend you stay here ##### Christine S.

It was exceptionally clean throughout and well furnished. The view from the main living area is so peaceful and lush. I enjoyed the tub in the main bedroom after a long day. The central air worked well which is a bit unique in upstate NY where most rentals only have a window unit or no AC. I have no complaints and would recommend. This is clearly a well cared for property. ##### Katie M.

There is absolutely nothing negative I can say.From the time I booked to the time I left this was the best experience I've had yet. Constant quick contact if needed. Cleanliness the best .They had extra stock if you forgot anything like toothbrush, (I DID) toothpaste,razors...... A Keurig with coffee pods,tea, creamer and FRESH honey. Hiking trails ,pond ,creek..... I needed this place because it was close to my daughter's wedding venue and all the running back and forth it was necessary to be super close. ##### Dawn N.

We loved the “Mallory Homestead Manual”, not only did it break down the rules of the house, but also listed things to do and places to go! The roosters weren’t a bother in the early mornings :). An all around great stay! ##### Tianna B.

Even a little fairy trail. And an absolutely gorgeous view! The Lodge is very neat and really clean. This is our second stay here and hoping to come back next year. And we do love the chickens wandering around the property :) ![ And a picture of just a few of the many chickens that are wandering around](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/d4e57749-5813-4f5d-af7d-dff0b9649cb8-1756381029640.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Jill H.

Enjoyed the view, the walk to the waterfalls and the jacuzzi. Needed help to start the pellet stove and the owner came right over and we stayed warm and toasty. ##### Mary Louise F.

Matt and Kristy were great. The view was spectacular, the jacuzzi and bed were great. Everything about my stay couldn't have been better. There was plenty of space for many people. Great place to relax. Kristy and Matt were very helpful with finding food in the area and left all kinds of thoughtful touches. I hope I can stay here again in the future!! ##### Kaela M.

The property owners responded quickly when we did need to reached out to them with questions. My only concern was walking from the parking to the door as you have to walk around to the back of the building, over the yard, and was very muddy while we were there. That being said, we would still consider going back. ##### Karra M.

The lodge was quaint and cozy, the perfect place for a relaxing getaway. It was clean and had everything you could possibly need for a short vacation, including a jacuzzi tub! The surrounding property was gorgeous with several fun and short hikes that we partook in to get out and enjoy the nature. Matt and Kristy were great hosts and helped with anything we needed, including purchasing more free-range eggs! There is also a supermarket just 10 minutes down the road so there is plenty of easy access to food. If you stay here, I would recommend bringing your own pillows, though that is a personal preference, of course. Thank you for such a wonderful stay :) ##### Veronica V.

Getting away from home with a home that’s the feeling of home is a good thing. The opportunity to walk the trails or buy honey made from their very own bee hive is a nice addition to getting away. It’s also a nice feeling to know that Kristy and Matt were near by than away from the property. So, being away and yet connected was and is a nice thing to have for a relaxing time spent with none other than family. ##### Carol P.
