The space
An idyllic haven for farm and nature enthusiasts alike. You may observe various wildlife from blue heron, rabbits, deer, the occasional fox, or hawks circling in midair.
A sixth-generation family farm, formerly produced dairy, evolved to produce hay, vegetables, pasture-raised meats, and fresh eggs. Embracing regenerative, sustainable farming practices, our philosophy is to be stewards of the land to protect it for future generations.
Visit the chickens each morning to collect your own farm-fresh eggs in our coop dedicated to on-farm guests. Discover our on-farm market that offers items from our farm, nearby New York farms, and local makers from our community. Harvest your own vegetables from our seasonal vegetable garden (or we can for you!) then use our kitchen fully equipped to achieve your culinary aspirations. You have access to a blender, hand mixer, French Press, Boche Tassimo single-cup coffee maker, ice machine, digital food scale, electric hot water kettle, automatic wine opener, pots, pans, baking accessories, etc.
Enjoy drinks around our butcher block kitchen island or outside on the deck while you keep your bottles chilled in the wine refrigerator. The deck has one dining table and several chairs. Nearby you can locate Adirondack chairs to sit and take in the scenic farm views, or observe the night sky.
The living room has a 75” UHD (Ultra High Definition) Smart TV to catch up on your favorite series, family fun board games (Catan, Chameleon, Sequence), a deck of cards, and books.
The primary bedroom with a private bathroom offers views and sounds of the stream. There is a king bed, an open wardrobe, and an artfully designed rocking chair.
The second bedroom has two twin beds, an open wardrobe, and stream views. The third bedroom has a full-sized bed, an open wardrobe, and provides garden farm views. These two bedrooms share a full bathroom in the hall, which is shared with the home’s common spaces. Luxurious handcrafted amenities from The Body Deli are provided, along with 2 professional grade hairdryers.
Modern laundry room with new in-unit washer and dryer. Linens are OEKO-TEX Certified.
Dedicated workstation with hand-operated standing deck, external monitor, Bluetooth mouse, and mechanical keyboard. High-speed Wi-Fi is available for all of your work (no!) and play needs.
Adventure awaits when you visit the Hudson Valley across all seasons.
Popular outdoor activities in Spring, Summer, and Fall include hiking the Appalachian Trail, biking the Harlem Valley Rail Trail, picking your own fruit at fruit farms, and observing the foliage changing between red-orange-yellow hues. Visit a local winery, brewery, or distillery and dine at local food trucks or pack a picnic. In Winter, visit the nearby slopes of Catamount or Thunder Ridge for snow activities, such as skiing, snowboarding, or tubing.
