Wonderful property! The house is beautiful and spacious with lots of fun things for both the kids and adults to do. The riverside fire pit is amazing, as is the hot tub and lovely deck overlooking the river. Everything was very clean and the kitchen was well appointed. Great location near New Paltz and the state park.

It is such a beautiful home and property!!!! The host is wonderful and is excellent with communication. The hot tub is perfect as it’s outdoors but covered. We used the fire pit in the front yard for smores. There is also a relaxing hammock in the front yard. We also enjoyed the rock wall in the basement. My kids loved it!!!! Can’t wait to come again

Girls Trip

Everyone really loved the house, especially the hot tub. In fact, one of the attendees asked for the link to the house as she planned to return again for a possible mother-daughter weekend getaway. The host was very quick to reply whenever we had any questions. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking to stay in the area.

We had a wonderful stay at the Dreamhouse! It was clean, comfortable, and had nearly everything we needed. There were a few small things that could use attention (the TV in the master bedroom we couldn't get to work, the freezer wasn’t freezing well, and the hot tub room was a bit dusty), but those fixes would make it even better. Communication with the host was easy, and responses were quick.Overall, the home was lovely and welcoming, with plenty of space for all 12 of us. We’d happily recommend it and would definitely stay again the next time we’re in the area.

Such a wonderful stay for our girls weekend upstate! We were a group of 9, but had so much room to spread out and didn’t feel like we were crammed in.Everything was clean and modern. Location was perfect - 5 mins from town, but felt like our own farm (we saw so many animals - chipmunks, deer, turkeys, even a skunk (who was cute and kept his distance :) )Kitchen was spacious for cooking in and living room was perfect for our game nights and movie watching. Communication for this Vrbo was truly wonderful. The team was so fast and super helpful. Can’t recommend this place enough!

New Paltz in the Woods

We had a terrific weekend. The house was clean, modern and very accommodating. We loved the layout of the home and all of its amenities. The location was a short drive to town and we had plenty of space on the deck to enjoy the beautiful trees and land. The deck even had a view of the river.

Amazing Stay at this Dream House!

My wife, kids, grandparents and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Riverfront Modern House over the last weekend! The home is very spacious and easily accommodated our large group. In addition, we appreciated the stylish decor and the fact that the house was immaculate. The property is an easy drive to and from the the New Paltz Main St and Farmer's Market, so we conveniently headed into town for shopping and meals. We all took advantage of the barbeque grill on our last evening there, and it was so nice to enjoy the meal on the lovely deck overlooking the river! I'd definitely be interested in staying at this property again in the future!
