I started managing vacation rentals as a side gig to my fulltime career. Over the years I have been able to design a standard for management like no other. When you hire Watchful Eye Caretaking & Property Management, LLC you hire experience. I didn't start this during Covid. I will be here after the novelty has worn off for the people that did. I am honest and upfront. I have worked hard to get where I am. The owners of properties I manage become like family. I get birth announcements, wedding invitations etc. If you want someone that can handle everything related to your short term rental give me a call. I will not manage properties that the owners want to manage and just have me available for guests and set up cleanings. WE ARE NOT A CLEANING SERVICE! I hire my own cleaners and train them and they only clean houses I manage so if its a cleaning service you are looking for I am not for you.

Experience a delightful stay in a beautifully maintained and spacious home, where guests consistently praise the cleanliness, comfort, and accommodating nature of the host, Kimberly. Perfectly situated for outdoor adventures, this inviting retreat offers ample room for families and friends to relax and create lasting memories.

Great retreat away from hustle and bustle. Excellent host! Clean and comfortable. As described.

Excellent house, very well maintained, extremely clean, very well equipped. We had a specific problem, but the hostess was very attentive, polite, understanding and responded quickly, solving the problem. We only have compliments! We love the house! We would definitely go back in the future.

The place was perfect everything Kimberlie told us was there. It is a great spot between two ski mountains that are only 20 minutes away. Our doggie loved the 5 acres to run around on. the neighbors dog stopped in every morning to say hello and as pet lovers we enjoyed that.

Kimberlies place was clean, inviting and perfect for a large group of friends looking for a weekend getaway half way between upstate and downstate ! Close to mountains !

House was perfect for our large family.  The house is well equipped on a beautiful piece of property. I just recommend to drive a car with 4 wheel drive. My husband and I have a pick up truck and had no issues getting up the driveway (but my nephew was in his mini van) did have a hard time. This was due to the weather. It was the coldest weekend with a winter storm in effect.  The location wasn’t to far from Windham mountain were we like to ski.  Overall we loved the size of the house and loved everyone had their own bedroom with plenty of space.
