The location is terrific--overlooking the river and bridge but just a couple blocks to the main street. We were there during fall foliage season, and we were so glad to be able to leave our car and walk everywhere. The house itself looks just like the photos. We didn't use the kitchen or sauna, so no comments on that, but the bedrooms were nice and the beds, pillows, linens, and temperature were PERFECT for a great night's sleep!

A beautiful, historic home (build in 1825) in the charming village of Woodstock. This is truly a gem for a family vacation. The home is in a great location, looking over a river, in view of a wooden, covered bridge and one a few minutes walk from the village with shops and restaurants. We spent a full month in the home and will cherish the memories. The communication with the host was quick and easy.
