Sunset House

About this property

Sunset House sits on an acre in Cornwall, New York, a 1910 farmhouse with hardwood floors and hand carved moldings. Guests mention the view from the living room more than any other feature, describing wide windows that frame the valley and mountains, especially at sunset. Several also note deer and wild turkeys crossing the yard.

The second most mentioned theme is the hosts themselves. Guests describe quick replies, clear check-in instructions, and help arranged on short notice. A few travelers visiting cadets at West Point called the communication and local tips part of what made the trip work.

The kitchen comes up often too. Guests cooking full dinners, including a Thanksgiving meal for a group, found it fully equipped with pots, pans, and gadgets, with room to spread out. The gas stove and dining table support real cooking rather than takeout.

A fenced backyard makes this a strong pick for guests traveling with dogs, who mention having space to run off leash without worry. Several reviewers also called the property quiet and calming, a contrast to a weekend in the city, and enjoyed the fire pit and record player in the living room on slower evenings.

The first floor holds a king bedroom and full bath, while two queen bedrooms and a second bathroom sit upstairs. A few guests flagged the stairs as steep, useful to know if traveling with young kids or anyone unsteady on their feet. Sleeps 6 across 3 bedrooms.
