Brookside Farm

NEW: Legacy Family Farmhouse near Callicoon

Hi, I'm Anna and I'm glad you're here. I'd really love to welcome you to this special creekside farmhouse.

There is something truly magical about Brookside Farm. Tucked beside the gentle waters of Basket Brook Creek, just moments from the Delaware River, this beautifully restored farmhouse has been part of the same family for generations. Originally owned by the current owners' grandparents, it has been lovingly passed down and is now welcoming guests for the very first time.

While the house retains all the charm and character of a classic country farmhouse, everything inside has been thoughtfully reimagined and renovated to an exceptional standard. Beautiful original wood beams, generous gathering spaces, and abundant natural light blend seamlessly with a brand-new kitchen, luxurious bathrooms, modern comforts, and high-end finishes throughout.

The heart of the home is undoubtedly its connection to the creek. A wonderful screened porch overlooks the flowing water, creating the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee, lose yourself in a good book, or simply listen to the soothing sounds of the stream as it winds its way toward the Delaware River. Outside, you'll also find a spacious deck, outdoor dining areas, and a fire pit where evenings naturally stretch a little longer under the stars.

Designed with families and groups in mind, the home offers four comfortable bedrooms and four bathrooms, three of which are private en-suites. A main-floor bedroom with its own bathroom provides easy accessibility for guests who prefer to avoid stairs, while one of the upstairs bedrooms includes a traditional full-size crib, making the house especially welcoming for families traveling with little ones.

The spacious kitchen is fully equipped for everything from holiday feasts to casual breakfasts, with a large dining table that invites everyone to gather together. Whether you're sharing meals indoors or dining outside beside the creek, the house offers countless spaces to connect and unwind.

Crossing the charming bridge that leads to the property feels like entering your own private retreat.

Surrounded by nature yet thoughtfully updated with every modern convenience, the home offers air conditioning and heating via individual mini-split systems in every bedroom, a cozy fireplace for cooler evenings, a large-screen television, high-speed Wi-Fi, and ample parking for up to six vehicles.

Whether you're planning days spent fishing the Delaware, exploring the surrounding countryside, gathering with family, or simply enjoying the peaceful soundtrack of the creek from the porch, this remarkable farmhouse offers a rare combination of history, comfort, and natural beauty that is increasingly hard to find.

As with all Upstate Place homes, thoughtful family-friendly amenities including a crib, highchair, toys, games, and children's dinnerware make traveling with little ones simple and stress-free.

Enjoy Good Morning, Upstate—a complimentary first-day breakfast stocked just for you.

Whether you're seeking a restorative wellness escape, a family getaway, have a child at French Woods Festival, or a desire a stylish base for exploring the Delaware River Valley and Catskills, Brookside Farm offers a memorable stay in one of the region's most beautiful settings.

PLEASE NOTE:

RENTAL AGREEMENT:

Our insurance, local permitting, and licensing require all guests to sign a rental lease agreement. This will request your full name, email, and contact phone number and must be completed within 48 hours of booking (or immediately for same-day reservations).

CANCELLATION & TRAVEL INSURANCE:

For added peace of mind, we strongly recommend purchasing travel insurance, either through the OTA at checkout or via a third party. Travel insurance may provide reimbursement for covered events such as illness, delays, work conflicts, or weather-related disruptions. Please confirm coverage details directly with your provider. We are unable to offer cancellations, trip changes, or refunds outside of our stated cancellation policy and will refer guests to their travel insurance if plans change. Our goal is for you to enjoy a smooth, stress-free stay.

UTILITY OUTAGES:

Upstate New York’s weather and tree-lined landscape (with primarily overhead power lines) can occasionally lead to outages. We do not assume responsibility for interruptions to electric, water, or Wi-Fi service and do not issue refunds for outages. Emergency supplies are provided. If an outage exceeds 8 hours, we will allow a cancellation without penalty.

WATER SAFETY:

This is a waterside property directly on Basket Brook Creek and minors and young children should be supervised at all times when near the waters edge. Various sized life jackets are at the home and we strongly encourage everyone to wear one when at or on the water. Water depth varies throughout the year, from ankle-deep to waist-high.

WEATHER & WINTER CONDITIONS:

Winter may bring snow, ice, and hazardous driving conditions. AWD or 4WD vehicles are strongly recommended, and tire chains may be advisable during storms. Driveways are typically plowed at 3”+ accumulation, though exact timing cannot be guaranteed due to weather and limited crew accessibility.

Snow shovels and pet-safe salt are provided. This driveway is on a gentle grade and generally easy to navigate.

TRAVEL INFO:

As we do not provide weather-related refunds, we recommend monitoring conditions through 511NY, New York State’s official real-time system for traffic, road closures, and weather updates via phone, web, or app.

FIRE PIT:

The outdoor fire pit is available spring through fall. In winter, it may be inaccessible due to snow coverage. For safety reasons, fire pits are positioned a distance from the house, and safe winter access cannot be guaranteed.

ANIMALS, PESTS & BUGS:

This is a rural property surrounded by farms, woods, and wildlife. You may see deer, eagles, bears, chipmunks—or hear coyotes and foxes at night. As with any countryside setting, insects and small wildlife (including mice, flies, ants, bees, snakes, and ticks) may be present. Keeping doors closed and food properly stored helps prevent unwanted visitors. Tick repellents (Tick Wise, Repel, or OFF) are provided, and all homes receive routine pest control. However, complete prevention in a natural environment is not possible.

PRIVACY & MAINTENANCE:

Guests have full access to the property except for any locked closets, basements, or garages (if applicable). Seasonal maintenance staff may occasionally access exterior areas for essential services such as lawn care, pool maintenance, pest control, trash collection, or snow plowing. While we aim to schedule these visits between stays, this is not always feasible and they may need to work during your stay. Staff will never enter the home without authorization.

CLEANING GUARANTEE:

Our professional housekeeping team exceeds Airbnb’s cleaning standards, and we stand behind their work. A time-stamped video is recorded after each cleaning. We do not issue refunds for minor concerns reported during a stay; instead, we will gladly send housekeeping within 12 hours of notification to address any issue.

EASY BREEZY CHECK-OUT:

We keep check-out simple and appreciate your help with the following:

• Please take out trash to prevent odors and pests.

• Make sure hot tub cover is on and secured

• Load and start the dishwasher if used.

• Extinguish all fires and fuels; cover the BBQ once cooled.

• Winter: set heat to 60°F.

• Summer: set AC to 70°F.

• Turn off lights and ensure all windows and doors are closed and locked.
