We came here for a family weekend away for Memorial Day weekend and a birthday celebration with ages ranging from 5-85. Everyone was very comfortable in this clean and spacious house. Check in was a breeze and communication was stellar. Loved the location close to town, distillery and breweries.
We went away with the family to celebrate my 60th birthday. The house had a beautiful Hamptons vibe and stunning views, and it was a ten out of ten experience- everyone truly enjoyed relaxing and spending time together. Incredible experience.Thank you,Risa
We had a spectacular weekend together at this home. It was impeccably kept inside and out, very well stocked with everything necessary to entertain, and in a beautiful setting. The caretaker and rental manager (owner?) were also extraordinary.
Beautiful spacious house for a family vacation. We enjoyed the heated pool, hot tub and fire pit and large space to relax together in or out of the house. Beds are very comfortable and everything was clean and in good condition. Plenty to do in the area, hiking, and biking on the rail trail and many restaurants within a short drive. Exactly what we were looking for to spend time together on vacation.
Our family had the most amazing time at this home! The house is so comfortable and welcoming—we felt right at home from the moment we arrived. We loved spending time in the pool, soaking in the hot tub, and relaxing by the fire pit in the evenings. The whole property is so peaceful and perfect for just unwinding and enjoying time together. We had such a great stay and can’t wait to come back!
Well appointed home! We thoroughly enjoyed the entire outdoor area. House was clean and beds were comfortable. Only negative was there was no water pressure in 4 of the 5 showers. New shower heads are definitely needed. Overall- Great home!

Thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing your experience! We’re thrilled you enjoyed the outdoor space and found the home clean and comfortable. We appreciate your feedback about the showers—renovations were completed just two years ago, and living so close to the mountains means our water has naturally high mineral content. This can sometimes affect the water, but we’ve already addressed the issue and installing a new whole-house water-filtration system. We also double-checked the showerheads to ensure everything is in top shape
My friends and I had an amazing stay at this property. It’s in a great location (only 90 min from NYC) and close to town with hiking, great food, and thrift/antique shopping. Check in was a breeze and the house itself was spotless. The property was serene with great views and plenty of activities, including a hot tub. Would definitely stay again!
Second time staying in this beautiful home - it’ll be one we keep coming back to. Perfect home, property, location, and managers. Can’t wait for our next stay!
Had such a lovely stay. Home was very modern with brand new furniture and backyard had so much to do with pool, fire pit, and hot tub. Will definitely be staying here again!
The variety of spaces offered great places for people to work remotely and for toddlers to play. The pool was perfect for two beginning swimmers and a lap swimmer. The grounds and house were clean and tidy.
We had a wonderful stay. The real fire place in the living room was a wonderful touch. Great for playing games with friends and family on a cold night. The Hot tub with a view was probably my favorite part. I would recommend getting up early to watch the sunrise in the kitchen with views of the mountain, it makes for a great cup of coffee.
My wife and I stayed here with our immediate family and it comfortably fit all 12 of us and our pups. The house was well stocked with essentials and the property manager was communicative. The location is beautiful, the grass and grounds maintained, and the backyard well fenced so we could allow our dogs out without concern. There were a couple things we couldn't figure out ourselves but we made do. The check-out at 10:30 is early without any flexibility permitted. Overall it was certainly a 5-star stay and would recommend.
Family from five different states met for a long weekend. The house was perfect with tons of room for meals, board games, football watching and hanging out. Bedrooms are generously sized, views from all the windows were stunning with the fall colors and the location was great for visiting the sights within 30-40 minutes.
Can't say enough great things about this magnificent home. Fantastic views, great amenities, absolutely spotless. Perfect relaxation getaway for my extended family. It had everything we needed and more.
Grateful to the wonderful hosts.
Relaxing long weekend getaway in a gorgeous property with amazing views
We had a wonderful long weekend stay for my birthday celebration. Smores by the fire pit, seeing the fall tree colors with the mountains in the backdrop and cooking meals with fresh produce and meat from the local farmers market was exactly what we were looking for. The property is well appointed and it was so relaxing. The kids had a blast playing outside and it was definitely a memorable and lovely experience.
I had an amazing stay at this mountain house! The breathtaking views from the kitchen left me speechless. The cozy interior and entertaining exterior, complete with a pool and hot tub, made it a perfect retreat. The host's attention to detail and hospitality were outstanding. I can't wait to return to this serene and well-appointed getaway. Highly recommend!
We had an amazing time at New Paltz. The hotub was perfect on those cool summer nights and the area had so much to do from hiking to visiting the Hudson whiskey disterally right down the road. When we arrived the place was clean and tidy and the pool water was the perfect temperature. We will def be coming back next year!
The very large and gorgeous home is set in a beautiful area with gorgeous views of the mountains. Our group of 5 each had our own rooms and enjoyed cooking for a few Girls Nights In. We loved swimming in the large heated pool and the pool towels were great. The home has glassware for every occasion that were perfect for our Signature Drinks. The location is perfect for hiking, shopping and sightseeing. Our group visited FDR's home, we took a cooking class at the CIA (Culinary Institute of America) and enjoyed all of the charming towns on both sides of the Hudson River. A
Everything about the weekend from the house, location, amenities, etc. was 10/10! The house is brand new and beautiful - very well maintained and had plenty of room for our large group. Shannon was a great hosts and super responsive to all my messages and questions. Their house manager Austin was also great and came to the house to fix an issue we had with the grill. Would definitely recommend this property - we cannot wait to come back!
We are regular travelers and would rate Shannon & Dave’s place as one of the nicest, best located, and coziest of all the places we have stayed. The house was very clean, modern, had everything we needed to feel at home, and was easy access to some of the best restaurants/views in the area. Communication was great too and answered any questions we had. We would highly recommend this stunning property if you're looking for a beautiful weekend getaway upstate! (Dog friendly, pool, hot tub & firepit was such plus too!)
