Wonderful!

Our family loved staying here! It was perfect for a family of four: from having 3 beds, to a large living room where we played games, to a kitchen with everything we needed to make breakfasts and dinner. The host was very nice, the property is beautiful, and we would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful spot!

Ray’s place is a wonderful oasis of relaxation, calm and beauty. Our family really enjoyed the quiet of the space and the beautiful grounds of the home. We loved how the house was close to town but also very quiet. We would love to return again.

It was a wonderful experience. Ray is an amazing host who saw to making sure we were enjoying our stay. The location is perfect with easy access to town but still in the country. Morning coffee with the chickens was a delight.

Lovely quiet sweet little house

Such a neat little cottage. We loved the quiet and peaceful surroundings and the homey feel of the place. Handmade quilts on the twin beds, fabulous chicken art, woodstove, comfy big chairs and couch. Ray brought us eggs our first morning, laid by the small but beautiful flock. Thanks for such a comfortable and friendly stay - it was just our kind of place!

Great stay in New Paltz

The location in New Paltz can't be beat. The property around the house is beautiful and makes for a lovely walk. Comfortable stay and Ray is very available for any questions/concerns. Our kids enjoyed watching the chickens that live under the porch. Would love to stay here again.

Convenient and Comfortable

Communication from the start was friendly and informative! The house is located in a great location within 30 minutes of everything that we wanted to do, beds were comfortable, shower was great, and we enjoyed walking around the property seeing the potting shed and the chickens. While the weather buried from very cold to sunny and warm for late March, we found the house to be stocked with blankets and wish we had made use of the wood stove. Ray is fantastic and we really enjoyed this stay in New Paltz! Highly recommend the Westwind Cidery, Garvin's, and the hikes at Mohonk - we even saw 2 Bald eagles and their nests!

Wonderful upstate getaway

My kids and I loved staying here. The farmhouse is cozy, the property is huge and very private, we enjoyed using the grill and fire pit, and stargazing from the porch at night. It was a great location for all the outings we had planned around the Hudson valley. Ray was a wonderful host and very responsive. We definitely hope to return again!

A Gem in New Paltz

We loved our stay on Ray's farm. A great place for your family to unwind and relax in nature. A clean home with beautiful surroundings, a great host and close proximity to all. Can't ask for more than that. We plan to return to see the fall foliage. Thanks for a great stay Ray!

Peaceful Birthday Getaway

A friend and I like to celebrate our April birthdays with a long weekend of rock climbing in the New Paltz area. The Farm House was perfect for this purpose and we will certainly book again in the future. Less than five min from New Paltz and it's many restaurants, yet situated in a quiet country setting, the lodging was the perfect mix of convenient and peaceful.

Great Dirt

This is a wonderful country farm house built in the 1800's but renovated with all the luxuries of a modern house. The property it sits on is beautiful with a pond and trails and a welcoming committee of six free range chickens... the ladies. The owner is friendly and communicates promptly. This made our stay very special. Don't miss the experience!

Beautiful property

Check-in was very easy, Ray and his partner were responsive to messages with questions, and the property and porches were so great to hang out on at night once our kids were asleep. More attention to detail in regards to cleaning would be good, and some WD-40 would come in handy for the bedroom doors after bedtime (we have 3 light sleeper kids!), but overall it was a good experience.

Staying at the Ray's Chicken Commune was fantastic

Beautiful Property. Close to New Paltz and Poughkeepsie. Our free eggs were delicious for our breakfast the morning after our arrival. Couldn't have been lovelier except my husband felt the fan in master bedroom rattled when it was on any speed other than low. Thanks Ray hope we'll be back next year!

Perfect Late Fall Getaway

My husband and I couldn’t have asked for a better stay in New Paltz. The location of the house is perfect - less than 5 minutes to restaurants/shops/grocery stores in town, yet you still feel like you’re in the country. The property is big and beautiful, with a lovely walking trail, fire pit, and pond. The house was clean, cozy, and spacious. The owner Ray was very friendly, accommodating, and easy to reach, but still giving us our space/privacy. We will definitely be back!
