Private Cottage

About this property

Private Cottage sits in Red Hook, set back from a quiet street yet close enough to walk into the village in minutes. Guests raise the walk to town more than any other detail, naming the restaurants, cafes, and shops just a short stroll from the door. Several also mention how private and quiet the property feels despite that proximity.

The second most mentioned theme is the host herself. Guests describe her as quick to answer questions, flexible with check in and check out, and generous with local recommendations for hikes, restaurants, and farms. A few reviewers who returned for a second or third stay point to that responsiveness as the reason they came back.

Inside, guests repeatedly call the space clean and well appointed, often surprised by how roomy it feels for a one bedroom layout. The kitchen comes up often too, described as fully equipped and good enough to make guests want to cook rather than eat out. A coffee maker, dishwasher, and full size appliances back up that impression.

Outside, the private backyard and patio draw steady praise, with guests mentioning morning coffee outdoors, a fire pit, and room for a dog to roam since pets are welcome. Several note the bedroom sits up a short flight of stairs above a ground floor bathroom, worth knowing for guests with mobility concerns. Air conditioning upstairs gets called out on hot summer stays as a comfort that mattered.
