Perfect Getaway with Family
Shamir's property was just what we were looking for. A house with a beautiful pool and enough space to accommodate our family of 12 comfortably which it succeeded. We had children with us and the fact that it had an area with farm animals and playground was a bonus. The pool was beautifully maintained and the house was clean and the rooms were spacious.

great house for a big get together!
This house was great. Our group consisted of old friend and our families. We wanted a place where we could all get tighter – we did not care too much about what was around since our goal was spending time together (which was a good thing since this house is in the middle of nowhere!). The house is great and HUGE and just a little bit old. The space is great, tons of room and despite really cold temperatures while we were there, the heat was working great! The hot water however was a bit inconsistent and took forever to get hot (especially in the upstairs bathrooms). The beds have super comfy memory foam mattresses and we loved them! Also, all of the bedrooms have extra beds/futons/sofa beds, which was super convenient for all the kids. 2 things that could use improvement: one is the door to the outside in the living room. The handle is broken and the door swings open. I saw another reviewer comment on this so I am wondering why this has not been fixed yet since it was pretty annoying and made the place freezing cold if something was not placed in front of the door to keep it closed. The other thing was randomly the fire alarms went off (and kept going off) during the day. This scared the kids and was really disruptive. Overall, we loved our stay and would definitely plan another weekend here (maybe in the summer so we can enjoy the pool!). Also, the vicious guard dogs are so adorable, we wished we could play with them!

Great Spot for Family Getaway
We had 11 family members stay comfortably at this house for our Thanksgiving holiday. Shamiur was a great host and was there when we arrived on Wednesday. We didn't run into any subsequent issues but have no doubt he would have been responsive if we had run into any trouble. The kids loved the outdoor space, visiting the farm animals, and building "camp" fires at night. The house had a few quirks - one of the doors in the living/rec room doesn't latch properly, so it would blow at night and leave the downstairs quite cold if you didn't put a chair or something in front of it, but overall it was great.

Modern Farmhouse in Newton, NJ
We had the best time at this awesome property! We rented it for a small family reunion (14 people aged 21-64 yrs old), and we all had a blast. The house is old-school with nothing fancy, but it's big and had everything we needed. The property is beautiful and we all enjoyed the farm animals. Where else can you collect your own fresh eggs for breakfast?! The location allowed us to conveniently go rafting, hiking, and spend a day in NYC. I can't say enough good things about the host, either. He was responsive and accommodating. He even did us a favor after we left! I would definitely rent the property again.

Great location
We attended a wedding at Bear Creek and stayed here with our family. Fantastic location, less than a mile from the facility. Great house. Very clean and plenty of space for everyone to get ready. The farm caretaker was very friendly and showed the kids around the animals which was a great treat. Would recommend anyone attending an event at Bear Crewk stay here

Beautiful stay
This property has its all. Huge place to enjoy activities on grass, little playground for kids, tennis court, farm, firepit and plenty of shades during hot days. Pool was great too, wish it had heated option because it was very cold, pool vacuum didnt work to clean it. Inside the house had plenty of rooms and space to enjoy. One of the tvs volume didnt work; and very slow wifi. I would recommend some deep cleaning. Overall it was an amazing stay.

Great Intimate Event
We had a small intimate event during our stay. And all along our stay it was most enjoyable and Shamuir was excellent in timely communication and providing support where needed even at last minute. Property neighbor John was also very helpful with helping random things like providing information for nearby things available. From the start of process from initial enquiry about the property and till the end of stay, Shamuir was very communicative and helped answer all questions. We even enjoyed a few farm fresh eggs. Overall, our family left saying that we have to come back to stay here on a holiday again and we are looking forward to our next stay here very soon again.

Fun property and fairly close to NYC
We celebrated my parents 60th anniversary and all had a great time. We interacted with the farm animals, gathered fresh eggs, played tennis, had a camp fire and even a few of the more daring took a quick dip in the chilly pool. The farm animals and seclusion of the property make it quite unique, yet with reasonable access to NYC.

It’s my family second time in this place. Everyone had a great time. The land area was humongous! We were able to do campfire, relax with nature, & cool off with the nice pool and deck. I’m really contemplating to have this place as our yearly family trip. It’s about 1.5hours away from NYC!! Book your stay!!!!

Total relaxation.
This property has all the comforts you can ask for. There were plenty of areas to sit and relax. We spent most of our days pool side. The area is very private. The deck had plenty of seating. The bedrooms are all very spacious. The gentlemen who takes care of the animals was friendly and happy to answer all our (farm animal) questions.

Unique Tranquil Spacious Property
Home was great for our low key ladies weekend. Big rooms, 2 TV rooms where we played games, well stocked gym in basement, comfortable beds, big pool deck perfect for lounging and even some aerobics. Jungle gym would be great for kids. We didn't venture to the tennis court/basketball hoop but it looked nice from the house. On-site chickens provided fresh eggs each day and goats were fun to see/pet. The groundskeeper was super nice. We couldn't get Ubers out there and cell/wifi service was pretty poor, but those are the trade offs for tranquility! Alibi Beach Bar was 20 minutes away and was a great spot with live music for Saturday night dinner. Very happy with our decision to stay at the farm!
