PETS
Well-behaved dogs are allowed with prior approval (and $100 fee per pet, per stay). Please clean up after your pet both inside and outside the house. Sorry, cats are not permitted. Failure to disclose any pets in advance may result in additional fees or penalties.
If you are traveling with a service animal, we kindly ask that you let us know in advance.
SMOKING
No smoking is permitted inside the house. If you must smoke, please do so outside and dispose of butts properly..
EXCESSIVE CLEANING FEES
We kindly ask that guests treat the home with care and respect. Should the property require cleaning beyond the standard turnover—due to excessive mess or incidents involving bodily fluids such as blood, vomit, or waste—a $500 fee may apply. Any linens or furnishings damaged beyond repair will also be subject to replacement charges. These situations are considered outside the scope of routine housekeeping and require specialized attention to ensure the safety and well-being of our team.
MID-STAY CLEANING REQUIREMENT
For stays of 28 nights or longer, a guest-paid mid-stay cleaning is required. The cleaning will be scheduled at a mutually convenient time during your stay. The cost varies by property and will be confirmed before scheduling.
ACCURATE GUEST COUNT
The number of guests must be accurately disclosed at the time of booking. While we don’t charge extra for additional guests up to the home’s maximum occupancy, this information is essential so we can properly prepare and stock the home. Please note that penalties may apply if guest counts are inaccurate or intentionally misrepresented.
OUTSIDE SERVICE PROVIDERS
Outside staff such as private chefs, massage therapists, or other service providers are welcome, but prior approval is required before they come on-site.
SUPPLEMENTAL AGREEMENTS
Guests may be required to sign a rental agreement. If applicable, it will be sent after the booking is confirmed.
SEPTIC
Please be mindful of the septic system and do not flush anything down the toilets or drains other than toilet paper. This includes any and all personal hygiene products, baby wipes, bleaches and strong chemical cleaners.
NOTE: There are only AC mini splits on the upper level. Fans are provided for the main floor (living room, kitchen area).
Grove House is a waterfront retreat with a funky flair, and the location can’t be beat, just walking distance to Narrowsburg’s Main St. You can relax waterside at the home by “Little Lake Erie,” or take a stroll down to dramatic views of the Delaware River, while you snack and shop your way through the cute stores along the promenade.
This 1890 farmhouse has been brought to new life with a cheerful and modern renovation. Try not to smile as you approach the blue-gray exterior accented with bright orange trim and statement doors in orange and eggplant. Inside, the wide plank floors shine with a natural refinished touch, and the spaces feel light and comfortable, with stylish and not-too-modern furnishings throughout.
The living room features a pellet stove, and comfy seating on a light tweed sofa and two seafoam tuffet armchairs. In striking contrast to the light filled living room, a dark walnut library nook dares you to resist pouring a whisky and sinking into a good book.
The spacious eat-in kitchen has been refinished with reclaimed lumber cabinets and butcher block countertops, new appliances, and a large picture window looking outside. When it comes time to dine, there are spaces galore. Sit on the screened porch with a cafe table for your morning coffee and paper, and later on in the formal dining room with your whole party. Outside, there are more gathering spaces. As you descend the terraced property past a bluestone retaining wall, you’ll find the teak picnic table for outdoor dining, a chiminea with Adirondack chairs, or continue down to a full blown fire pit on the lawn by the lake.
Upstairs you’ll find three guest bedrooms with queen size beds, each with ample windows and refinished wood floors. The rooms are bright and uncluttered, and feature mini splits for keeping you comfortable in any weather. Grove House can comfortably accommodate six adult guests, with a shared bathroom upstairs with pedestal sink and standing shower. Downstairs is a luxurious bathroom oasis with a soaking tub and large open shower. And those aubergine double doors from the exterior? They hide a carriage house turned office, with a smart tv, soft yellow couch, and shag throw rug.
This waterfront home offers a refreshing burst of color when it comes time to pick your getaway!
Grove House is located in the heart of the Delaware River Valley and within walking distance from the hamlet of Narrowsburg.
