My husband, dog, 3 year old daughter and I came to DeForest so he could go to a rambler session at the Levon Helm Barn (a 3 minute drive from DeForest House). John and Catherine were friendly, welcoming and very accommodating to having our daughter and dog. The house is very beautifully decorated, very clean, comfortable and upscale. They were... More

This B&B is several cuts above the norm. What a lovely house and sumptuous breakfast with French flair! Katherine and John are very interesting, vivacious hosts and their house is beautiful and also very well located just moments from downtown Woodstock. Highly recommended. Passes the critical test of "would I return?" with flying colors.

Our nearby home was going through renovation, so I booked a night here to relax and sleep in after a day of contractor/construction details. Delightful! John and Katherine are wonderful hosts, and their home is beautifully decorated with local Woodstock art and history. Katherine (from France) prepared a wonderful breakfast of home made quiche, bread, fruits, etc.

Deforest is an immaculate, high-end BnB that is run by the wonderful John and Catherine. The attention to detail is worthy of a (very good) five star hotel. The breakfast was delicious and abundant. The BnB is minutes away from the center of Woodstock and is set in a beautiful wooded area overlooking the valley. This is true country estate... More

Starting from the beginning, on the phone Catherine was so friendly and always available when I called several times to enquire, reserve and confirm. Then when I pulled into the driveway and saw just 20 feet away a beautiful deer walking peacefully into the woods, I knew it was going to be a wonderful stay. Their house is perfectly located...

We spent one night at DeForest House while visiting Bethel Woods and Woodstock. We were warmly welcomed by John & Catherine. The Moroccan Room was beautiful and romantic. Having the terrace made it extra special. We got beautiful pictures of the woods from the terrace. Catherine's breakfast was incredible! Fresh fruit, yogurt, scrambled eggs, croissants, challah toast, fresh orange juice... More

Thank you to our gracious hosts, Catherine and John. It was a pleasure to stay in their beautiful and immaculate home. We stayed in the Morroccan room, and it was beautifully furnished, very clean and extremely comfortable. Breakfast was fabulous too. Madeline N.

My husband and I had one lovely night here in August. It sounds trite to say that our B&B hosts were great and made us feel like we were family or old friends staying in their house, but that's exactly how it felt. We're pretty private people and tend to choose hotels for that reason, but we had long, fascinating... More

My wife and I spent our first anniversary by heading upstate to Woodstock and staying at the DeForest House B&B for Labor Day weekend. We stayed in the Moroccan Room, which had a mildly funky vibe and access to a personal roof deck. The couple who ran the B&B were very friendly and talkative and knew quite a bit about... More
