Woodstock Paradise with Gardens & Private Heated Pool-Gardener's Special! | House in Woodstock

Our cozy art-filled home is nestled in the Woodstock forest with an acre of perennial gardens and private swimming pool.
A Gardener's Special is available for any guests who would like to try their hand at gardening during their stay and receive rebated fees. Just ask for details, and let us know your wishes.
The charming and comfortable cottage-like home we have built over decades is perfect for couples sharing a lovely king-size bed, singles seeking a get-away, or couples-plus-1 (extra fee for use of our twin-size sleep space--babies in portable cribs stay free!). The main bedroom has an excellent king mattress with white organic cotton sheets. The simple windows have French lace coverings installed for privacy.
This is an open but cozy house with beautiful wood floors / hand placed ceramic tiles in bathroom and kitchen. It has skylights, bay windows, and a beautiful vintage claw-foot tub for long soaks (a shower head also provided).
We are located inside the village of Woodstock, a 10-minute walk to the Village Green (or 3 min drive). In season, swimming pool is surrounded by forest and gardens open for summer guests (heating available per your request). Our indoor space is a charming private home with skylights, original art, antiques, piano, and inset fireplace in a very serene spot. Private drive to house in forest makes this extra tranquil. Fountains, flowers, and birds help enjoy the special perennial gardens. The deer will come wandering through...
Quiet and peaceful, yet close to Woodstock town restaurants and boutiques, our location offers the best of both worlds. A perfect space for artists and couples or close friends seeking a restful vacation. And everyone loves our pool!
We are also pet friendly -- one small or medium size dog (or cat) allowed per stay.
Enticing decks with various garden seating and views of garden and forest. Barbecue under the stars--or use one of our garden fire-pits.
A front bay window full of plants faces a front deck.
For colder nights, we have a living room bluestone fireplace (now a smoke free inset with sealed glass door provides lovely wood heat). House has great winter lighting and ample shade in summer.
AC in summer is available (additional fee--just let us know your needs). The house also stays cool as it is covered by shade trees in summer. (In winter, the sunlight comes through south-facing bay window for added natural warmth. Regular oil-furnace heat is also available for winter as well as inset-fireplace.)
Beautiful screened windows as well as sliding door open out to private back deck with lovely forest views all around.
Cook delicious meals in our simple but fully equipped kitchen with granite counters and Spanish tile floors--or use the barbecue on the deck. Enjoy nights of stargazing while eating at the outdoor table with chairs and lounges.
Our 30-foot pool is excellent for swimming or just bobbing, and is surrounded by the forest and a special pool garden with blooming perennials including a magnificent rose bush, and colorful wildflowers. We offer sun umbrellas and chairs for lounging around the pool and in other outdoor seating spots. There's also a hammock for your use.
For a change of pace, can also take a 5 minute walk down the road to the Woodstock Millstream swim hole for a refreshing cool dip on hot summer days, or visit one of our other local stream swim holes (just ask for info!)
Consider taking a walk in the woods following the Town of Woodstock paths through the Comeau Property forests along the Millstream. It takes 5 min. to drive to the trailhead. These rambles are refreshing and joyful. Dogs must be on leash!
This is our real weekend home, developed over 25 years. We are writers and professors who love books, art, writing, and the quiet of our special house. Come enjoy our books, French antiques, and artwork. We love to share it with others when we ourselves are traveling. Come and enjoy our soothing, magical, tranquil atmosphere. Our space is the perfect retreat for one to three people.
Musicians can play our lovely piano. Cooks can make magical meals to serve on our antique French table or, in good weather, out on the deck.
Or take a stroll into the heart of the Woodstock village very close by to shop or eat great food. Hear music in local venues for the cost of a drink in places like the Colony (restored 19th century hotel made into a music venue) right in town. We can give more information about live music venues, such as the renown Ramble, the Bearsville theater down the road, or the Station Bar. Woodstock is a town of music!
We provide a full Woodstock House Manual for your stay, with local venue tips. And just ask for information -- we can recommend our favorite current restaurants and local hang-out spots. The gardens also have art and mobile sculptures by our renown family artists. (All information in the Manual hardcopy.) You may not even want to leave the Gardens! They are fabulous in summer/early fall. You even have fresh herbs available there for cooking.
Don't miss this opportunity to relax by the pool, on the decks surrounded by flowers and greenery, with sumptuous views of the forest when our calendar allows. We do think this is a PARADISE. IOur guests over the years tell us how peaceful and relaxing our place is, and that the photos often don't do the place justice.
