Zen House
It's unfortunate that my husband and I had such little time to be on the property of Zen House during our stay because I think the grounds offer beautiful walks. The host, Olga, was very kind in providing us with waters, drinks, fruits, teas, pastries, etc. This is not very often the case with a vrbo. My one oversight was not realizing there was no TV; I am a news junkie so I had to revert to my laptop. I guess this is why it's called Zen House!

A peaceful retreat
It was such a joy to spend the week at Zen House. The property is lovely in such a tranquil setting, it’s impossible not to be relaxed within hours of being there. Olga, the owner, was so warm and friendly and went above and beyond to make our stay special. My wife loved the pool and found it rejuvenating to lose herself in a daily swim. The house was easy to get to from our home in NYC and we can’t wait to return.

Beautiful Location
This was such a great experience with this property. We were filming an interview for a documentary film; Olga understood how film shoots work, was supportive and on hand for anything that we needed. She even made a very tired crew espressos. The house was exactly as advertised, and the grounds were stunning -- crew enjoyed being able to spread out and soak in the nature. The one note for future productions is that in winter, you can hear the traffic on Rte 15. But we were filming indoors and used sound blankets and were fine.

A memorable experience, ready for my next stay at the Zen House
Beautiful property with calm, cleanliness, and serenity coming to mind, although many other qualificatives deserve to be part of this list. And most importantly, the hosts are not only great people but they also have mastered the art of making the guests feel special! A must go!

Beautiful Zen setting and studio with a doe and two fawn grazing on the grounds.
This is a lovely private Japanese style house with a wonderful pool. The views and tranquil, private and gorgeous. The owner is exceptionally kind and thoughtful. We could not turn one wall heater outside the bedroom off, so we slept with the accordion door closed and the AC on in the bedroom. Also, we never mastered the coffee maker. We really enjoyed our stay in the studio and surrounding village and countryside.

The Zen house was great. The pool house and pool is Set within the 17’ tall stone ruins of a 1910 sculptor studio (originally Gutzon Borglum’s studio) the 20’ x 60’ pool was amazing and we used it 2 or 3 times each day.
