A well appointed, nicely decorated cottage that is roomy enough for two. This cottage sits on a quiet, dead end street and the neighborhood is so peaceful we had the windows open at night while we slept. The only noise was good noise, we were awakened each morning by a chorus of birds. Fully equipped kitchen, stack washer and dryer, and a comfortable Murphy bed you can tuck away when not in use. Our primary reason for visiting New York was to go to the Bronx Zoo. This cottage is a 15-20 minute drive to the Zoo or the Botanical Gardens. The area reminds you more of a shore town than New York City. Walking distance to a number of good restaurants, local grocery stores. Ample off street parking large enough for a long Chevy Suburban with room to open the back hatch. Definitely a consideration if you're visiting the Bronx part of NYC. Place got busy in the evenings on the weekend yet we still only had a 35 minute wait for a table at a popular crab house nearby.
