We had a great stay. The home was super clean and access was very convenient. The home was beautiful and very well appointed. It was a great place for our annual sibling get together (six couples). Nanci was very informative and we were well prepared for our visit.We would definitely stay here again on a return visit to the area.

What a great and fun house to stay in when traveling to the Hudson Valley! Extremely well stocked, (including snacks!!), spotless, and so very comfortable. Communications with Nanci could not have been better - she has the best online guide to the house we have ever seen. My wife, daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will book again for our next trip! Thank you again, Nanci for everything!

Great stay!

Property was just as described and very comfortable for our group of 6 with 3 generations. Definitely one of the more thoughtful places we have stayed at--well stocked kitchen, enough towels, comfortable beds with good amount of blankets. The art and painting was beautiful too. We would return.

We had a lovely weekend stay at this stone house with our family. There were a lot of lovely artistic touches throughout the house and it was obvious it was well cared for. The hosts have gone above and beyond making sure we had everything we needed. Kitchens and bathrooms were well stocked and lots of lovely "welcome" items in all the rooms. Would definitely recommend staying here again.

Charming house

We loved staying here because it was spacious and clean. We choose this house because it was within an hour of Legoland. I loved how each room had queen beds because that made it easier on who got what room. The house was beautifully renovated and they left a lot of the original character and mixed modern touches in perfectly. We will definitely stay here again.

We had a truly wonderful time at The Gem Stone Home! Our family of eight was able to comfortably stay here, with plenty of space for everyone to relax and enjoy. Everything was exceptionally clean and well cared for. Check-in and check-out were simple and stress-free. The location was perfect—centrally located to everything we wanted to do. The owners, Nanci and Jim, were fantastic—so easy to work with, responsive, and kind. The home had everything we needed and more. It was the ideal setting for a relaxing and memorable getaway. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to others

We had such a wonderful stay at this charming New Paltz home! The house is beautifully designed and thoughtfully decorated, with every detail taken care of—even down to toiletries in the bathrooms. The kitchen had everything we needed, and we loved cooking meals with fresh ingredients from local farm stands. Evenings around the fire pit in the backyard were so special for family time, and we also enjoyed cozying up to watch movies together at night. The location couldn’t have been more perfect—close to everything yet peaceful and relaxing. We’d highly recommend this home and would love to return!
