Country Life Bed & Breakfast

Picture yourself in our beautifully restored 1829 farmhouse in the hills of Washington County. You'll be near Saratoga's racing and music, Vermont skiing and shopping centers, boating,fishing on the Battenhill, antiquing, hiking,ice skating and much more. You're invited to explore our pine forest, brooks, and waterfalls, or sit on the patio swing and watch birds-54 varieties to date. Perhaps you'd rather spend a busy day sight-seeing and come "home" to rest in the hammock, on the patio or by the fire with a glass of wine or a cup of coffee. On nice days, perhaps you'd like to tour the countryside in one of our 1929 Fords and pretend you've gone back to a more relaxed time. Come let us pamper you; you deserve it. Non-smokers only, please.

Innkeeper Response
It has taken me this long to figure out who wrote this review, but I think it was a "vet" we had here whose business information another guest, who was leaving, wanted. I thought it would be additional business for the vet. I called quietly at their door and she came right out. In 27 years we have prided ourselves on being very quiet and considerate if people go back to their rooms after breakfast-for whatever reason. We turn down , or off, our music, don't use our lawn mower or make any outside noise. We are probably overly aware of quiet time. I truly apologize if we disturbed their "romantic time". Probably a first in 27 years of doing B&B

Review Country Life Bed & Breakfast, Greenwich, NY

Photo Album

Large Sunny room with views of the hills and glorious sunsets. Extra large King bed, color TV, reading area and private bath. A queen sized bed with en-suite bath makes this room a favorite. Color TV and dressing table, comfortable reading chair.
This king bedroom has four windows, two looking out on the garden, two onto the hills of corn and oats. Open the windows and listen to the waterfalls. Autumn is a gorgeous time of year here-the dahlias are blooming and will end up on your breakfast plate and the corn will be harvested. It is fun to watch the cutting of the corn.
Autumn is spectacular at Country Life, the foliage is brilliant and the apples abundant. Walk the gardens and climb the hill to the woodlands. The waterfalls and swimming hole welcome all guests.Our swimming hole is a main attraction here. These waterfalls flow into a wading area and the swimming hole is above them. The water is clean and refreshing-beach towels provided.
This wall is still here from an old grist mill from the late 1700's. It is viewed from the swimming hole and also from above. The history of it can be related by Richard, the host. This is a view from the pergola-where a porch swing beckons you. Other porch furniture is available for a quick lunch or bring wine and cheese and enjoy the gardens before going out to dinner.
How about an afternoon siesta with a loved one or even a relaxing time with a good book. It is shady and cool here.
