Alexis' house is a fantastic getaway for those looking to escape home without escaping the comforts of home. The kitchen is a cook's dream and has all the necessary hardware to prepare a full meal; we made our Thanksgiving dinner using only cookware already in the kitchen. Coffee lovers will love their two coffee makers -- one drip, one espresso -- as well as the choice of coffee beans.
The house is about 15 - 20 minutes from Hunter Mountain or Windham Mountain, and 35-40 minutes from Belleayre. When booking here, know that you're truly escaping, cell phone service is spotty (you'll go miles from the house before you get a reliable signal, but there are a few spots in the house where you can find a minimum amount of service), there is no WiFi, and while you have tons of movies and games to choose from, there is no cable or over-the-air TV (as of this writing).
If you're looking to get away from the hectic pace of the city, have a great place to stay and not pay resort rates, be able to cook in a kitchen that almost certainly rivals your own AND a place that's kid and pet friendly... why are you still reading? Book this place before someone else does!
