We ask that you of course, not enter the caretaker's cabin which, is just to the side of the house, or use the parking spot adjacent to it. :) Please don't enter the various storage/garden sheds that we have for safety reasons. Please don't go into the attic or the basement for safety reasons as well, although that is where the breaker box, verizon phone box, and oil burner are located. If you need to go into the basement because of a lapse in service please contact us first. Otherwise enjoy all the property has to offer which includes the lodge with a stone fireplace and 2 wood stoves, a pool, hot-tub, hiking trails, an organic vegetable garden that you can pick from, multiple flower gardens, a trout stream, a separate rustic cabin with a fireplace, and multiple decks for eating, enjoying nature, and napping. Please be respectful of the property, the parking areas and our neighbors as we love our lodge at Putnam Valley and we hope you do as well. Thanks!
