About this property

Glenville Home•Modern Kitchen•Quiet Neighborhood Near Town•Spacious & Equiped

We have remodeled this beautiful one-story home to be your home-away-from home while in the Glenville area.

To allow you extra time and flexiblity, our check in time is an early 11am. Our 2pm check out time allows you plenty of time to get ready for your travel home, have some breakfast/lunch, and collect and pack your belongings.

We provide several extra supplies to make your stay more comfortable.

SUMMARY:
• Spacious, one-story floorplan
• Brand new Forced Air Heat and Central Air Conditioning
• Fully remodeled kitchen, full bath & half bath
• 65" Smart TV and sound bar in living room
• 3 Bedrooms: 1 King bed, 2 Queen beds
• All bedrooms have Ceiling Fans, blackout curtains, night stands, hangers, luggage racks, laundry basket
• Kitchen is stocked with multiples of dishes, glasses, and utensils; plus pots, pans, oils, spices, salt&pepper, etc.
• Lots of extra kitchen small appliances: microwave, toaster oven, pop up toaster, rice maker, slow cooker, Popcorn maker, mixer, blender, and MORE.
• Gas Fireplace in Living Room
• Smart TVs in Living Room, Primary bedroom, and 3rd bedroom
• In a Quiet neighborhood but only a half mile from the main road through Glenville; minimal traffic, near town
• 1st floor clothes washer and dryer
• Back deck with dining table and chairs during warm months
• Multiple work spaces
• Gas Grill during nice weather
• Whole house generator: Glenville & Scotia and the area in general have notoriously spotty electrical service year round due to storms, falling trees, old infrastructure, etc. Should the power go out in the area, after about 2 minutes, the generator will take over and power the climate control, kitchen, lights, television, etc. Book our property with confidence. (Note that you might need to reprogram several digital clocks - or let them blink at you)
• Dimmable recessed ceiling lights in the kitchen and living room.


We have tried to think of everything possible to make your stay comfortable and effortless.

The living room is spacious and has a large, comfortable sectional couch with a chaisse lounge near the gas fireplace. The blower on the fireplace, along with the brand new forced air heater, will keep you comfy and warm in the cooler months, but you can also snuggle up with a blanket from the blanket ladder while you are watching the 65" Smart TV with sound bar. Dim the recessed ceiling lights for added ambiance. In the summer, the central air will keep your cool and comfortable.

Head into the kitchen that is fully stocked with pots, pans, bowls, cutting boards, baking sheets, and other necessities. The kitchen has multiples of silverware, glasses, plates, bowls, etc. Lots of small appliances including slow cooker, toaster oven (large enough to fit an 8x8 casserole dish), pop-up toaster, blender, mixer, rice cooker, air popcorn popper, food processor, George Forman grill, waffle maker, etc. We provide a selection of spices, oils, salt and pepper for you to use; plus baggies, foil, parchment paper, plastic wrap, etc. We also will start you off with some coffee (regular and decaf), teas, hot cocoa & marshmallows, and sugar packets on our coffee bar that has a drip coffee maker, a French press, a moka pot, and a milita cone (pour over). Additionally, there is a traditional kettle for the stove and an electric kettle.

All three bedrooms have been finished with nightstands on both sides; plus luggage racks, laundry baskets, and hangers in each closet. Beds have freshly laundered linens, a blanket, and comforter/quilt. There is an extra blanket in each bedroom closet and additional blankets/quilts are staged around the house, should you desire them. Each bedroom has blackout curtains and a ceiling fan with light to further customize your comfort. Additionally, each bedroom has a full length mirror and a close up mirror so you don't need to crowd the bathrooms.

The full bathroom is stocked with bath towels, hair/hand towels, and washclothes. Additionally, we provide paper towels, cotton balls, cotton swabs, makeup remover sheets, bar soap, liquid soap, a hair dryer, and air freshener. In the shower is shampoo, conditioner, gel body wash, and bar soap.

The front closet has books, games, and puzzles for you to enjoy. There is also a traditional vacuum, broom, dry mop, dust pan, etc in case you have a spill that you need to tend to. We just added a stick vacuum that we love for those quick pick-ups.

There are three desk areas for work, puzzle making, makeup application, or whatever you need.

We have left extra: Paper towels, toilet paper, garbage bags, towels, bedding, blankets, pillows, etc.

In nice weather, there is a table and chairs on the deck and a gas grill. The yard is large and level.

The house also has a full house generator. Glenville notoriously has an unstable electrical grid during summer and winter storms. You can book with confidence that the heater/air, lights, TV, refrigerator, etc, will continue to run if the power goes out.

We have provided a house manual with lots of information including:
- where things are in the house
- the closest place for coffee, non-chain coffee shops near by, big coffee near by
- where things are in town
- recommendations on stores and restaurants
etc.

Have any questions? Something isn't listed in the house manual? We hope that you will message us if you have any questions!

During the spring/summer/fall, we might have to perform landscaping activity during your stay. We will do our best to arrange a convenient time. Lawn clean up takes between 1 and 4 hours. (The town is particular so we must maintain it).

In the winter months, we do not provide snow removal service, but there will be shovels in the breezeway and can provide phone numbers to plow services, if needed.

The house is near a small municipal airport that also is the home to Stratton Air National Guard base so there are often small planes flying overhead and large military planes over the main part of town.

There are many trains that run through Glenville so low horns can be heard in the background.

Our fire department has a horn that alerts the volunteers to an event. Don't worry if you hear it! All is well.

We remodeled this home in 2023 and just made her available for rent starting Thanksgiving 2023. We are still working on the yard/landscaping. The town is planning to rip up the apron of the driveway so we are on hold to put in an expanded driveway.


Please note:
There is absolutely NO SMOKING allowed on, in, or around the property. $1000 Additional Charge for that Clean Up
We do not allow pets. $1000 Additional Charge for cleaning up after unallowed pets plus fees for any damage caused.

Rent this house!

I spent a long weekend with my adult children celebrating an early Christmas at Gena's VRBO home. We were so happy with the home, the kitchen in particular was very impressive with beautiful appliances, every kitchen tool we needed, and extras like spices, a coffee bar, and vast counter space. We cooked many meals and loved having so much space. The beds were comfortable, there were more than enough towels, and the sectional was perfect for morning coffee chats, evening movies, and to root for the Buffalo Bills! Gena had the home decorated for Christmas inside and out. I have rented many VRBO's over the years and this one stands head and shoulders above the rest. We are already planning another gathering soon. Thank you, Gena, for being such an outstanding host!

Great stay and communication- "home away from home"

We had a baseball tournament in the area for my 16y/o son and stayed here with another parent and their son. From the first point of contact with owners this was a great choice. The home is cute, comfortable and they have been extremely thoughtful on all the offerings. The kids played wiffle ball in the yard everyday and were so happy to have a "home" to come back to after each game. Great neighborhood and literally 5-30 minutes from anywhere. The kitchen is completely equipped with everything along with the bathrooms. If back in the area again will definitely try to book this home. Thank you for a great stay! Highly recommend.

Perfect house for our family!

Husband, wife, 2 teens, and my MIL stayed here for a family memorial service. The layout was perfect. We even had more family over for dinner and we were all very comfortable. Super convenient to groceries and whatever else we needed. It was a great, quiet neighborhood that made for very pleasant morning walks. The host was very responsive. Thanks for everything!

Review of Glenville one story 3br property

We stayed May 3 thru 5. This rental is in a quiet neighborhood. The pictures for the listing are accurate. The kitchen is first class, and well equipped with everything needed and desired. The bedrooms were fine, and the beds were comfortable. The full bathroom has a shower that that will get as hot as you desire. The host, Gena, was prompt in her communications and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend this property! Paul

About the host

Hosted by Gena Dean

Host profile image
We recently moved to Glenville to be closer to family.

Why they chose this property

Our vacation rental is in our neighborhood only 2 blocks from our home. We bought her to primarily host family and friends when they are in town, so we have remodeled her with some higher end finishes and lots of comfort items. We changed her floorplan to be more open, bright, and make more sense for today's comfort and we are so pleased with how it came out!

We are still working on the landscaping and outdoor areas. The town is planning to rip up the apron of our driveway. Originally it was supposed to be Summer 2024; then Fall 2024. It is now planned for Spring of 2025. After they complete their work, we will repave and widen the driveway and add a turnout for extra parking.

What makes this property unique

Once in the house, our rental home is one story, making it easier to get around for tots or those with mobility issues. Her layout leaves almost no wasted space, making her feel much larger inside than her square footage would imply. This house is close to Town Center, but is in a neighborhood. You will see kids out riding bikes, folks walking their dogs, and neighbors doing yardwork. It's a great neighborhood!

Our property has central air and heat; a lovely back deck; a whole home generator (Glenville and the area notoriously have spotty electricity); and many other higher end features. We just love her and hope that you will too!
