About this property

Peaceful & Quiet Lakeside Home with Hot Tub, Pool Table, Fire Pit

Located just 60 miles north of New York City in Holmes, New York, 89D is the perfect getaway spot for those who want a peaceful, quiet retreat away from the noise.

Soak in our hot tub, play pool on our 9-foot table, cook a gourmet meal in our fully stocked kitchen, or just relax on the screened-in porch, around the fire pit, or in front of the wood burning fireplace.

The house sits directly on the ever-changing and always beautiful Lake Dutchess. Lake activities in the warmer months include swimming, floating, fishing, kayaking, row boating and sunbathing. Winter activities include ice fishing, skating, snowshoeing and skiing. No motors are allowed on the lake, which keeps the water clean and makes the geese and swans the loudest noises you’re likely to hear.

PLEASE NOTE THAT QUIET HOURS ON LAKE DUTCHESS ARE FROM 9 PM TO 9 AM. Sound really carries over the water, so please respect our neighbors' serenity as they will respect yours.

Spectacular hiking trails are nearby in all directions, and cultural attractions, great food and entertainment abound in the numerous local Hudson Valley towns.

The top floor features the Master suite with a king size bed, ceiling fan, shower and spacious walk-in closet.

The main floor features two bedrooms, each with queen beds, ceiling fans and a separate full bathroom including a combined tub and shower. Around the wood-burning fireplace you’ll enjoy seating for at least seven on two long leather couches and a recliner. The 65-inch cable-connected TV doubles as a sound system, and includes Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu, HBO, STARZ, Spotify, Tidal, Pandora, and more.

Feel free to enjoy any of the numerous games in the living room, including Chess, Backgammon, Scrabble, Mahjong, Go, Giant Jenga, Mancala, Bananagrams, Farkel, Anomia, and many more. High speed WiFi is available throughout the property.

Nestled between the living room and the kitchen, the pool table overlooks the lake, and can be converted to a dining table that seats up to 12 people. The kitchen features a five-burner gas stove, two convection ovens, a three-rack dishwasher, and everything a gourmet chef might need. There’s a large pantry, four stools around the kitchen island, a foldaway high chair, a convenient half bathroom nearby, with an additional refrigerator in the attached two-car garage. There's also an electric smoker with a variety of wood chips.

Out the back door between the kitchen and pool table is a spacious wooden deck with a large gas grill and outdoor seating area. There’s also a large screened in porch with additional seating and a dining table under a ceiling fan—a perfect place to relax before or after your active day.

Downstairs you’ll find a ping pong table and exercise equipment including an elliptical machine, a weight bench, dumbbells, battle ropes, slam balls, kettle bells, exercise mats and more. There’s also a laundry room with a full size washer and dryer, and a half bathroom.

Step out of the back of the basement, and you’ll find an eight-foot square chess and checkers board next to the cedar hot tub. Nearby are several Adirondack chairs perfect for relaxing around the wood burning fire pit.

Please note, we do not rent to anyone under the age of 28, and have a 6 adult maximum. This is a peaceful lake community. PARTIES/LOUD GATHERINGS WILL NOT BE TOLERATED.

Also—please plan on using our kayaks, paddle boards and row boat, rather than bringing your own. Outside watercraft are not permitted on Lake Dutchess in order to prevent contamination and/or invasive species from watercraft that have been in other bodies of water. Thank you for your understanding.

Our stay in Holmes, NY was exactly what we were hoping for. The house was peaceful, comfortable and perfectly set in a quiet lake. Just what we needed for a relaxing weekend with our daughter. We spent our days enjoying the calm water and our evenings playing pool and ping pong, which made the trip even more fun. The settings felt private and serene and the home had everything we needed to unwind and reconnect. A wonderful spot for anyone looking to slow down and enjoy some quality time with family and friends. We already looked to rebook for the fall colors but we were too late in doing so. Hopefully next year.

We had a fab week at Brad’s house, never straying beyond Patterson because it was so relaxing just being at the house. Highlights were the dock, screened in porch, air con, how homely the place felt, watching fireflies in the evening and swimming/paddling/ja tacking on the lake which was the perfect temperature in July. One for the family memory bank.

This was our third stay at Brad’s beautiful property, and it is always a joy. We go for an annual ‘sister’s weekend.’ The house is so comfortable with many cozy spots to sit, chat and admire gorgeous Duchess lake. We especially like the Japanese soaking tub. The kitchen is wonderful, with everything you need for good cooking. This year we visited nearby Cold Spring for shopping and lunch, an easy drive through stunning woodland. Don’t forget to pick up delicious food and drink at DeCicco & Sons, in Brewster, just a short drive down Rte. 84. Perfect house. Perfect location. Perfect getaway!

This was an amazing property. It had everything we could have wanted and more. Our only regret was not having enough time to enjoy all of the amenities. We only stayed one weekend for a nearby wedding, but this place could have easily kept us entertained for a whole week.
