Fabulous family fun

We had a wonderful vacation with our kids and grandkids in this spacious house on an expansive property. Each family had their own space, the kitchen was well-appointed and there was plenty of room for large groups to gather both indoors, and out. The lake was a highlight. We had hours of fun swimming, kayaking, exploring the lake on a boat rental, and fishing. The views were always beautiful, from misty mornings to late night sunsets. Ben was a very responsive host, calling frequently to make sure things were okay, and even purchased a high chair when I inquired if there was one available. The inside was perfectly clean, however the outside needs some updated repairs, and had litter from what appeared to be previous renters, including random beer cans and cigarette butts. Also, the pool did not look clean, despite having a pool service. Overall, these issues did not detract from what was really a terrific family vacation in a great house.

Property was beautiful. No oven or m/w. Owner provided an instagrill but still not right. Pool heat wasn’t working. No shade at pool-no swim ladder at lake. Drainage issues in kitchen and downstairs bathrooms. Great pool table. Owner was responsive but no credit offered for the issues.

Awesome getaway for large groups

This was one of the best places I’ve stayed at. Tons of bedrooms and bathrooms (so many showers and they were all pretty large), plenty of different spaces to hang out including the main first floor where the kitchen/dining room/living room is all combined, basement with various games (pool table, video games, arcade game, workout space, chess), and so much outdoor space. Pool is heated and spacious, there’s 2 different fire pits, an outdoor table that’s well shaded, dock/lake area. Space was very clean, plenty of linens/towels, kitchen was very well equipped. No issues with wifi and there was even wifi by the pool. Check in was easy and host was always responsive. Highly recommend for a big family or friend trip

We had an amazing stay at this property! Everything was exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and beautifully maintained. It felt like a true home away from home. The location was perfect, and all the amenities were thoughtfully provided.What really stood out was how smooth and stress-free the whole process was. Communication with the owner was excellent from start to finish—quick responses, clear instructions, and super helpful throughout. It made the entire experience even better.Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing and easy getaway. We’d absolutely stay here again!

Good Weekend With Friends

Solid house for a weekend with friends. Rooms were spacious where all 15 of us were comfortable. It's a solid house but also definitely a rental home in terms of quality. Also very echo-y so hard for people to go to bed early. Driveway plowing was good enough, as long as your car is solid in snow you should be fine in the winter. Good value for price

A very nice stay with friends and family

We rented the house for a long weekend for our family and two other couples. The house was very comfortable and there were plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for everyone. The kitchen area is very nice and had plenty of room for everyone to gather around. The backyard also had plenty of room for relaxing and playing, even on a chilly November weekend. I will say that the pond had mostly dried up, so the water view was not much to look at. I'm not sure how often that happens. The host was also very responsive and helpful in getting us situated.

Ideal for Larger Groups!

I would absolutely recommend a stay at Ben’s lake house! While the reviews below are true that the house could use a coat of fresh paint, that’s where my areas for improvement end. The value of this property is 10x what you would get at a resort for a large group. We did everything from cook in the pizza oven, to playing spike ball in the backyard, to jumping off the dock into the lake - not sure what resort has access to all of that in the privacy of your own group. If you’re here in a good weather month, we even rented pontoon boats on the lake the house is on. Does it get more convenient? There’s a pool in the secluded front yard if the lake isn’t your thing, and downstairs there’s arcade games and a pool table. The kitchen is stocked with pots and pans, which made cooking for a large audience easy. The house isn’t the only thing to do either, and our friend group made use of the local casino (which has big city casino vibes) and golf courses. Monticello was a hidden gem just 90 minutes from NYC, and I would absolutely go back to Ben’s home.
