About this property

Romantic Log Cabin on Privately-Owned Lake with Fireplace

TOTALLY PRIVATE!!! Our 85-acre parcel of land located in northern Dutchess County offers a variety of terrain for exploring - woods, streams, meadows, and even a gorge.

The log cabin, on the shore of our privately owned three and one-half acre lake, is the only dwelling on the lake. The closest neighbor to it is close to 1/4 mile away.

A large, stone fireplace and a picture window overlooking the lake are the special features of the cabin as well as the covered front porch with hanging chairs and redwood sofa and chairs. Sleep on a queen sized sofa bed in our large living room. There are also chairs and hammocks hanging outside from a number of trees.

Outdoor cooking is made pleasurable with your choice of a gas grill or a stone charcoal barbecue, and dining is done on a large picnic table sitting on a fieldstone patio or on a picnic table at the dock area. You can also dine inside in front of the picture window, if you prefer. A herb garden (in season) offers a choice of 12 different herbs to use in your cooking!

Outdoor lighting is extensive if you desire it. We prefer the stars and moonlight reflecting off the lake!

Secluded gem

Amazing location on a completely private small lake just a few minutes off the Taconic Parkway. Host is very helpful, and very artistic. Sleeping on a pull out couch was initially off-putting, but it is very high quality and fairly comfortable, and works for the space. So many birds to see and hear! Nice hiking trails on the large property, which has adjacent preserved land.

RELAXING, ROMANTIC and BEAUTIFUL!

My husband and I celebrated our 30th anniversary at Karen's cozy cabin. We enjoyed the quiet and relaxing atmosphere and complete privacy. We enjoyed hiking the many trails on the property, relaxing in the many hammocks on the grounds, the fireplace, and the row boat. Karen was a wonderful host and was very helpful! The ice cream sundaes were delicious. We will definitely be back!

My fiancé and I had an amazing stay at this cabin. Very quiet and peaceful and lots to do just on the property alone. The host Karen was very nice and welcoming, left us ice cream sundaes and set up a birthday sign for my fiancé on our arrival! Beautiful cabin and very private, we will definitely be back!

Back to basics with view and privacy

The owner has stocked the tiny kitchen with so much, even m&m's Just bring your food and wine. The porch overlooking the lake is perfect. But there are so many places to enjoy the location and just chill. We enjoyed seeing the resident heron, rabbit, birds, butterflies, and even deer (on our walk). The gas Weber is perfect for taking the cooking out of the kitchen, and I loved the red (additional) fridge outside the door (summer only). It's not our typical getaway from NYC, but we'll be back!

Great cabin and relaxing lake. Not much cell signal but I was surprised that the internet there is actually blazing fast - great for videos, etc. No one around so nice and peaceful - great way to recharge for a couple nights. Will be back!

Lovely serenity

This is a great property that is well kept with trails to hike, stars at night, a pond to hear frogs and tons of dragonflies and fireflies. It’s stuff made up of a place you would see on TV. Lots of hammocks and chairs around and my favorite place was the deck overlooking the pond - especially at night.

Hudson Valley Cabin

Wonderful! Very clean - What a special place, great "spirit" - close to the FDR Presidential Library, Taconic Distillary, the Back Beer Garden and the Cabin (tavern)! Awesome for a couple, relax, swim, fish - no neighbors! Lotsa Bass for the catching!

Love this cabin

The cabin is really cute & has wind chimes & garden art all around it that integrates so perfectly with the natural oasis it is set in. This is a great place for a nature loving couple to enjoy. Singing birds, frogs, turtles chipmunks & fish in the lake, are the only neighbors you will notice o this beautiful property. Karen is a lovely gracious host and both she and the cabin are very welcoming & charming. Its a perfect spot go to with your soulmate & reconnect with nature.

Little Slice of Paradise

Talk about cozy, this place tops them all! Time seems to slow down when you are staying in this well appointed cabin. We loved sitting in the rocking chair inside or the one on the porch overlooking the pond. Hiking trails are well marked leading from the cabin and the bird watching over the pond was great. You are very much to yourselves while staying here as it is very rural. And, the bed was fantastic!

Weekend Escape

We are relatively local - Cold Spring and Beacon. But we felt like we were worlds away! The cabin was quintessential and super cozy, and the property was a quick skip to all the local attractions. Karen was absolutely lovely - ice cream sundaes were a very sweet treat. We were wanting to just be with each other and unplug, and this weekend delivered on that. Would love to visit again in the fall.

Peace, love & fish!

The owner, Karen, showed she was an amazing host before we even arrived !! She left us two ice cream sundaes in the freezer and gave us a tour of the property. It was so cool to visit a place that has been having guests for the last 20+ years.... The cabin is so peaceful...the property truly is away from the world. There were plenty of kitchen utensils, towels, blankets etc to use. This place is great for walking/hikes, fishing off the dock or the row boat. We fished the entire weekend and caught over 100 fish between the two of us!! We fell asleep to the crickets and bull frogs and woke up to the birds chirping.We took advantage of the fireplace all weekend, super easy to use and they even gave us a free basket of wood! We truly couldn't have asked for a better weekend, cabin or host. We will most certainly be visiting again.

Lovely Secluded Stay

My partner and I spent time at Karen's property for our 6 year anniversary and it was everything we wanted it to be. Quiet, quaint and a breathe of fresh air from the busy Brooklyn life. Karen was warm, welcoming and walked us through everything we would possibly need for our stay. Highly recommend staying here for a getaway from the city!
