About the host
Hosted by Don Murphy
Hello! We're a family of five—my wife and I, along with our three energetic sons aged 11, 8, and 5, live 5 minutes away from this home. We take immense pride in creating a welcoming and comfortable environment for our guests. Sharing our secondary residence on the serene shores of Orange Lake allows us to offer others a glimpse into the tranquility and beauty that we cherish. Whether you're seeking relaxation or adventure, we're delighted to provide a space where you can experience the best of the Hudson Valley.
Why they chose this property
Having grown up in the Hudson Valley (specifically Wappingers Falls), I’ve always had a deep appreciation for the beauty, community, and lifestyle this region offers. This home’s central location keeps us close to family, friends, and the many places that make the Hudson Valley so special to us.
Every time we’re kayaking or relaxing on a boat on Orange Lake, it feels as if we’re tucked away in the northern Catskills or Adirondack Mountains — even though we’re just 65 miles north of New York City. Orange Lake truly is one of southern New York’s best-kept secrets, and we’re thrilled to share it with our guests.

What makes this property unique
From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted by breathtaking, panoramic views of Orange Lake — so close it feels like you could reach out and touch the water. It’s a truly special property where the beauty of the lake and sunsets becomes an unforgettable part of your experience.
