The documentary made about Woodstock released in 1970 showed interviews with numerous Bethel residents, including Art Vassmer, co-owner of Vassmers General Store in Kauneonga Lake. Loads of history and still about 2 hour drive from NYC. Don't miss out your opportunity to not only own a unique Farmhouse but also be part of a growing town and or development!!!
