About this property

Many perfect sunsets at the magical house on the lake

The house has a very open layout living room, kitchen and dinning flow into each other. There are 2 bedrooms, queen size bed in the lake-facing one and one queen and one twin bed in the other. From the bedroom and living room there are big sliding doors onto a large deck with amazing views of the lake with a large table, chairs, and lounge chairs and grill. A dock for swimming into the lake and a gazebo to enjoy the beauty of the spot. There are solar panels on the roof.
The house has 2 bathroom, one full and one half, there is a hairdryer, a washer and dryer in the basement.
There is excellent WiFi and a smart tv.
The kitchen has stainless steel appliances, and granite counter tops.
Coffee maker, espresso machine, milk foamer, toaster, water heater are on the counter top.
There is an iron and board in one of the large closets and hangers and plenty of storage space for clothes.
Heating and cooling is regulated with a thermostat and there are separate heaters in each room, central air conditioning.
The land around the house is beautiful with may areas to sit, benches and hammock , about an acre right on the water. A canoe for water excursions is available and there is a new row boat that accommodates 4. I have life jackets, 2 adult, 2 children. The beautiful cedar dock gets you into the water or just hanging out at the water, and there is a daybed right next to the dock.
Parking is in front of the house and there is additional parking on a lot next to the house. The magic is in the light and the restful energy of the house. We do our best to use eco friendly soap and cleaning supplies, it is important to us that the house is clean energetically and dirt wise. We care about sustainability and respect of nature and do not want to harm especially children or pets, that is why we do not use any kind of poison inside or outside the house, for that reason please forgive the possibility of a bug or an ant. thank you.
The house is very well located between New Paltz and Kingston, there are many amazing restaurants and stores, Woodstock and Rhinbeck are only a few minutes more or you can enjoy sitting at the water and chill.
I decorated the house with my art. Fabric sculptures and paintings.
The house is perfect for 2 and may be 5. The living room is small. The kitchen table pulls out.
the water quality of the lakes and rivers upstate can vary this is mostly a problem in the drought season end of July, when there is limited water flow. I test the water regularly during this time and in general to make sure its safe,
I swim in it, we all do ! The water feels soft and fresh. All my tests came out good this year 2022, meaning no contamination just tested again second of July 2023 no contamination

Another Great Stay at the Lake Cottage
Another amazing stay at the Lake Cottage! Everything was perfect - as always! October is such a special month in the Hudson Valley. I highly recommend the Wallkill walking/hiking trail (parking in Rosedale) and the River to Ridge trail in New Paltz. If you are looking for a great massage Cristina Silver - at Healing Hudson Valley/New Paltz is it! Thank you Gisela for sharing your home!

Fun stay by the lake
I went with my kids (7 and 3) and we all had a great time! The kids loved trying out the different boats and swimming in the lake. The fire pit was a big hit too, especially for s'mores. The house was very comfortable, and Gisela was super-responsive, even coming out at one point for a special request we made. Had a great stay!

Great Lake house near Kingston!
This house provided the perfect long weekend getaway from NYC. Morning coffee overlooking the lake, afternoon reading in the gazebo, evening dinners in Kingston all made for a great weekend.

Host profile image
i am an artist and healer, i love creating in small and big ways. My magical house at the lake was a great pleasure to renovate and decorate. It is very important to me that is feels good, that the vibe is right and to honor the land and the elements. I travel a lot, but when i am home i live not far from this house.

Why they chose this property

This spot is amazing, the light at sunset, the lake, the edge of the water, the trees and the house is just so cozy, i am in love with it!

What makes this property unique

i love laying in bed at night watching the moon over the water, the moonlight reflected in the water. i love the sofas and the feeling of the house, there is something very simple and cozy.
