Your Fun Uncle called...he's lending you THE house.

The one where nobody checks the time, kids disappear into the game room for hours, and someone always ends up at the fire pit saying, "five more minutes."

Private 5-acre wooded hilltop with lake views, a 1,200 sq ft turf-floor game room packed with skee-ball, ping pong, air hockey, foosball, cornhole, and more.

First winery is 4 minutes away. Bristol Mountain is 7. Beach is 9.

Designed for 10, dogs welcome, zero boring allowed.

The space
Some houses you stay in. Some houses you remember.

The Hill House has four living spaces, five bedrooms, two decks, a fire pit, five acres of wooded hilltop, and a 1,200 sq ft game room that is technically a garage but has completely forgotten that. There is always somewhere to be and always somewhere to escape to. The group can be together without being on top of each other. That is harder to find than it sounds.

Warm, a little weird, and completely intentional. If that sounds like your kind of place, welcome home.

🛋️ THE BASEMENT DEN

You walk in through the basement. Cedar-paneled walls, a leather sofa, vintage cane chairs, a TV, and a green velvet bench from a Knights of Columbus hall. This is where the teenagers set up immediately. It's also where the kids migrate when they need their own world, away from the adults who are trying to have a conversation upstairs. The ski rack in the corner keeps winter gear organized. The door at the end connects directly to the game room, which means by the time anyone has put their bags down, someone has already picked up a paddle.

🏓 THE GAME ROOM

Not a pool table in a corner. Not a dart board on a wall.

A 1,200 sq ft garage finished with turf flooring and loaded for people who take fun seriously: skee-ball, ping pong table, air hockey table, foosball table, basketball shootout arcade, cornhole, and a giant Tetris installation that makes absolutely no apologies for existing. And yes, there is an outdoor playhouse inside the garage. The Fun Uncle does not follow conventional rules about what goes where.

Young kids have the playhouse. Older kids claim ping pong immediately. Adults who said they were just going to watch end up under the umbrella with a drink, calling the shots. Thirty minutes later someone has drawn up a tournament bracket and the evening is no longer what anyone planned. Rain, shine, or apres-ski — nobody is bored.

🌿 THE SUNROOM

Someone always finds this room and decides it belongs to them.

Floor-to-ceiling windows on two sides, cedar-paneled walls, hanging plants, a live-edge dining table, rattan lounge chairs, a papasan that gets claimed within the first hour, and a chess table in the corner. This is where a grandparent sits down with a grandkid and teaches them chess or checkers while the rest of the house does whatever it does. Nobody interrupts that. It opens directly into the great room so everything flows together, but the sunroom has its own quiet gravity. Morning coffee here becomes the ritual by day two. Evening wine was always the plan.

☕ THE GREAT ROOM

The heart of the house and where the trip actually happens.

A soaring wood-planked ceiling with skylights runs the length of the open-concept living room, kitchen, and dining area. Two full sofas, original art, two octagon windows — because of course there are. This is where the adult kids cook dinner while grandparents are in the sunroom and the grandkids are somewhere in the basement — voices carrying up through the floor, everyone accounted for, nobody in anyone's way. The kitchen island is command central. Someone claims a barstool and doesn't leave for the rest of the afternoon. Bar seating for three, full electric range with hood vent, subway tile backsplash, stainless appliances, open shelving. Fully stocked and built for a group that actually wants to cook.

The dining table seats all ten — because someone always gets left at the kids' table and that someone is usually an adult and it is not happening here.

The water is worth a mention: full treatment system plus a reverse osmosis tap at the kitchen sink. Clean, clear, actually good. Fill your bottles freely.

🫎 THE FAMILY ROOM

Gerald the moose lives on the wall in here. He takes everything in, judges nothing, approves of everything. He has been the backdrop to more board game arguments than anyone can count and he has never once taken a side.
Cedar walls, electric fireplace, and a floor-to-ceiling board game wall stocked with Clue, Pictionary, Finger Lakes-opoly, Scattergories, Monopoly, UNO, Dominoes, TriBond, Bop It — yes Bop It, the game you didn't think you needed until it gets passed around the circle and suddenly everyone's wrist hurts and nobody wants to stop — and more. This is where the rainy afternoon goes. Where the after-dinner argument about which game to play happens every single time. Where the teenagers who said they were going to bed are still sitting two hours later. Gerald watches. Gerald approves.

🛏️ THE BEDROOMS

Bedroom 1 — King, main level. Private ensuite bath and a private balcony overlooking the lake. The grandparents' room, if this is that kind of trip — they've earned it. If this is a group of friends, may the best bracket win.

Bedroom 2 — King, upper level. Lake views and a cozy sitting area that makes it genuinely hard to leave in the morning. A very gracious second place finish.

Bedroom 3 — Queen, upper level. Crib available for the little ones who have no idea how good they have it.

Bedroom 4 — Queen, main level. Cedar walls, an iron bed frame, and a Bicentennial Chief Justice Windsor Armchair tonce described simply as "the fat man chair." It is large. It is beautiful. It is exactly right for this house.

Bedroom 5 — Queen, main level. Home to Ben Franklin — a hand-carved wooden chair of deeply uncertain origin who plays cello and asks nothing of anyone. Guests photograph him. We don't ask why.

Bedroom 1 has its own ensuite. Bedrooms 2, 3, 4, and 5 share a full bath and a half bath. Both bathrooms have personality. The photos will explain.

☀️ OUTDOOR LIVING

The covered front deck is where the trip exhales. String lights overhead, a gas fire table at the center, lounge chairs and a chaise for people who have nowhere to be. This is where the group ends up after dinner and where nobody actually wants to go inside.

The back deck is for the mornings and the meals. A full outdoor dining table set for ten, backed by a wooded hillside with an exposed shale rock ledge rising behind it. Private, dramatic, exactly the kind of setting that makes a simple breakfast feel like something worth remembering.

The fire pit is where the night goes. Ten black Adirondack chairs — one for each of you, because it was intentional — set against the shale rock face with five acres of woods surrounding it. No road noise. No neighbors. Just the fire, the dark, and whoever is still out there at midnight saying five more minutes. You already know who that is.
