About this property
A stunning, modern Lodge with rustic charm at June Farms!
AS SEEN ON THE SEASON FINALE OF BRAVO TV’S “BACKYARD ENVY”!
The Lodge at June Farms is a stunning, rustic, open-floor-plan retreat. The screened-in front porch looks down onto our beautiful horse pasture. This main cabin is our most romantic cabin on the property. Our gigantic rain shower in the bathroom has an 8'x5' wall mirror and a French door that opens out to the forest. If you are a cook, this cabin is a chef's dream.
Please check the availability for our other luxury cabins if booked!
I am always available by phone call or text. -Matt
The "neighborhood" is what we call "farm country". However, we are just 10 minutes away from Albany and Troy, and about 45 minutes from Saratoga and Schenectady. There are many amazing restaurants very close by, and excellent shopping. When you book, you will receive a link to our blog giving you many suggestions for fun things to do off the farm.
You will have the entire cabin to yourselves, and be able to walk around our beautiful gentleman's farm and meet all of our animals!
One thing to note, The Lodge is 300 feet up the hill and through the woods from The Pony Barn, a rustic bar/lounge serving the finest local and NY state spirits, as well as wood fired pizza. The Pony Barn is typically open from Memorial Day to Labor Day, and has private parties throughout the year. In season, The Pony Barn is open Tues-Sat, from 4pm-11pm, Sunday from 11-4.
If you are looking to enjoy the restaurant/bar, you are certainly welcome to join in on the fun at the bar, no reservation needed for cabin guests.
To be certain the Pony Barn is open during your visit, or to book for one night, please check our IG page.
UPDATE: The Lodge now has air conditioning!
The Lodge is not safe for children. There are ladders that are not safe for anyone between the ages of 2-10.
One of the great things about June Farms is its proximity to the Albany Amtrak train station. It is a very simple, and short Uber ride (10 minutes) should you decide to take the train. Otherwise, we would suggest renting a car so that you can drive to the nearby grocery stores and restaurants. Around the farm, you can walk or rent a golf cart during your trip.
Our apologies, but absolutely no pets in the lodge. We tried it, it didn’t work.
The owner of the farm is a local restaurateur, and can give excellent recommendations for dining out and local experiences.
*The 2nd King Bed is up in the loft and requires climbing a ladder.
Also, June Farms is a short Uber / Lyft ride from the Albany Amtrak Train Station, and is only 10 minutes from downtown Albany & Troy.
Because of the popularity of JUNE FARMS, we can NOT guarantee that the Pony Barn Bar & Restaurant will be open/available during your stay. Private parties and events often get booked last minute. We promise you that the farm itself, and the animals and serenity, are the true appeal of the property. You will not be disappointed even if the Pony Barn is not open.
Please note: due to high demand there are no refunds on cancellations if you book directly with us.

About the host
Hosted by Matthew Baumgartner

June Farms was founded by New York bar owner & restaurateur, Matthew Baumgartner. After spending years in hospitality, living between the Capital Region and New York City, and undertaking many entrepreneurial endeavors, Matt decided he wanted to get back to basics. So he bought some acreage in the country on which he could build a house and raise animals and crops. But he quickly realized that his friends and neighbors had an enormous interest in coming to see the land, meet all the animals, and have a few beers while they were at it.
So, in 2017, Matt and the staff opened a pop-up bar & restaurant on the farm . It was so popular that he decided to completely change course from the original plan and focus on farm visits and food & beverages service.
Since then, Matt has turned June Farms into a full-service hospitality brand and gentleman’s farm.
