The house offers total privacy and relaxation on 5 private acres. Behind the property there are additional 300 acres of woods suitable for walking, hiking and even dirt bike riding.

The host Marc will make every effort to assure your stay exceeds your expectations. The home was exactly as pictured and described, making our family holiday-stay easy to plan. The area adds to the charm. We enjoyed Long Valley Brewery and Christmas with the Clydesdale at Willow Grove Farm, and would recommend both.
I stayed here with family/children and it was great! The host was very kind and easy to get in touch with. Also had toys for young kids there which helped! Thank you so much!
We had a fabulous time at this home in Hackettstown! Marc was the perfect host. The house was spotless, the yard was beautiful and it was so peaceful! Would definitely stay there again! Thank you!
This property felt like our own home for a week. We were 2 families and were very comfortable living, sleeping, cooking, relaxing, etc. for our vacation. Very close to center of Hackettstown and convenient to all in this quaint town.
We wanted a place to hang out with family we hadn't seen for over a year. It was a great spot for enjoying nature (great bird watching from the porch!) We were close to stores and outdoor activities when we wanted to get out. Marc was a great host!
We stayed here because our house was being renovated and it was a great solution for us. There's an office in the basement that was very helpful for us as we (sadly) weren't on vacation. Lovely views and good hiking if the weather allows.
I was very happy with the property. The house was exceptionally clean and the grounds were nice. There were little touches like coffee, tea, etc. The check in was exceptionally easy. I would recommend this property and would stay here again.
Stayed at this house for three nights with two friends (all three of us in our 40s) and had an excellent time. Everything is as described, very clean and easy to access. Marc was very communicative and a wonderful host. Also very close to the city, but felt like we were hundreds of miles away. Recommended in all aspects!
We enjoyed staying at this property. It was quiet, very private, very clean and well stocked with necessary items. The driveway is quite steep, but that is just the way it is in this location. The owner was very kind and extremely helpful. I would recommend this one to friends.
Would return! Arrival begins with an exciting drive up a steep driveway to a secluded retreat. We enjoyed the open kitchen, new appliances, the big table for family meals, happy flowers, and a beautiful deck with festive lights. Easy check in process. Great nap spot in the basement.
We are a group of friends that train dogs and compete together.
We where I’m town for a National competition. Marc’s House was in the perfect location, it was so nice to be able to let our dogs stretch out. We only cooked one meal there but the kitchen was adequately outfitted.
The beds are very comfortable, as well as the rest of the house.
My old roommates and I always have a yearly retreat to get away from work and family and this place was more than perfect. If u want to get away in a beautiful and private home. This is the place. The house is beautiful and immaculately kept. If ur looking to get away from the noise and husle and bustle of everyday life this place will do it. The house was larger than expected and extremely comfortable. I will recommend this place to all my family and friends. The nature and seclusion is priceless. I would definitely book this rental again.
The house and property was very beautiful. The rooms are very open, spacious and cozy. We tried to be very prepared and ended up overpacking. There were a few surprises when we arrived which made it an even better experience. The house had an impressive entertainment system complete with movies and books. The kitchen was nicely stocked with coffee and other necessary items. Meal delivery was great. Overall our stay was great. Our host Marc was very kind and welcoming. He always made himself available and we felt very safe. We will definitely return soon. We had a wonderful time!!!
Great home for our family! Host Marc is wonderful!
Our family needed a place to stay short term as our daughter, son-in-law and 2 granddaughters move to New Jersey and waiting to move into a new home, which fell through on our 2nd day here. This home was a perfect respite for us during this challenging time. There were tons of toys age appropriate for our 4 yo and 6 yo grand-daughters, there was plenty of space for the kid's dog to roam around and the whole house was a perfect fit for us! We asked to stay longer due to the situation but unfortunately it was already booked. Marc was an amazing host, even calling his neighbors and folks he knew to see if any of them had availability to rent to our kids for the next month as they search for a house. He went above and beyond what I would expect from any host. Marc is a great person and great communicator. Anytime I had a question I would text him and he would respond immediately. We found a 2nd home to move to move to and Marc accommodated us with a little later check out time. We were very comfortable there and would highly recommend it.
