About this property

Castle by the Lake

This one-of-a-kind castle with modern rustic charm is the perfect getaway for movie nights by the fireplace, curling up to read in a secret nook, or big brunches before a nature hike. Situated just one hour north of NYC by car or train with easy access to West Point, Bear Mountain state park, Cold Spring antique shops, Breakneck Ridge hiking, and the world famous Appalachian Trail. Tucked away in a zen-like lakeside community where small town charm meets the nearby wilderness.

Unique property

This home is very unique. I was visiting my son for a football game at West Point and hosted he and several friends for the weekend. The bedrooms are decorated very nicely and the beds are comfortable. We used the Weber grill one evening and would have loved to enjoy the outdoor spaces more. I do feel the photos in the listing make it look lighter and brighter than it is. The kitchen is very small and don’t think I could manage to serve 10 people (the number the listing says the home will sleep) with the place settings and glassware provided. Keep in mind this is an authentic castle built in the 1930’s and it has a lot of uneven steps and terrain. In addition, the only bathroom is on the first floor (the two main bedrooms are upstairs). The host was very nice and made sure there was gas for the grill and firewood for the fireplaces. The kids loved the experience and we had a wonderful weekend.
