Beacon Retreat with Hudson River views and access to hiking trails and downtown!

PROXIMITY TO WEST POINT (17 miles) DOWNTOWN BEACON/ THE ROUNDHOUSE (2 miles)
Our Beacon home is perfect for a family or two to enjoy the great outdoors and all that Beacon has to offer, including hiking out the back door, great restaurants and brew pubs, Dia Beacon Museum, music at the Towne Crier and many other local attractions. Should you prefer to stay at home, the home sits on 3 acres of peace, with a stunning river view with incredible sunsets. Just out the back door is a large patio with a gas fire table, gas grill, outside shower and an inground pool with diving board and slide. The little ones will love the swing set, and less little ones the ping pong and foos ball table in the basement, along with large TV for watching movies. There is an office for private work at home meetings and a formal living room with view to Mount Beacon.
Our home has hosted many a family gathering and accommodates it well. The open kitchen, living area, with fireplace is the central hub and cooking is easy and efficient on the 6 burner gas stove with griddle and double ovens. There are two dishwashers to make clean up easy. A large mudroom with lockers and washer and dryer keeps the group mess contained in one room for ease and uncluttered living while on your vacation.

Beautiful, spacious home with Hudson River view

This home was the perfect place for our reunion of college friends. The beds were comfy, the pool was relaxing, and there was plenty of space for us to sit around and catch up. It is close to town and local sites. The owner was available and easy to communicate with. Loved it!

Wedding Weekend in Beacon

Our stay in this stunning Beacon Home surpassed our expectations. The home is meticulous and exactly as pictured with views of the Hudson River and easy access to all Beacon and the surrounding area has to offer. Our family, my husband, grown children and grandchildren were in Beacon for our youngest daughter's wedding at a local venue. Melissa, our host, was responsive and available throughout the process and our check-in and check-out all went smoothly. The pool provided a fun activity for everyone, as well as much needed relief from the heat! It was an amazing long weekend for my family and we thoroughly enjoyed our time here.

2nd stay as good as the first

This is our second time staying at this property, and it was wonderful. The house is large and comfortable. It is very clean and well appointed. The host is extremely responsive. The views of both the mountains and the Hudson River are gorgeous and the area is very quiet. A perfect place to relax and enjoy everything The Hudson Valley has to offer.

USMA Graduation Weekend

This home is a perfect place for a large family gathering or celebration! The open floor plan, stocked kitchen and outside pool area was perfect for our West Point Graduation. The house is more spacious than pictures depict and we really appreciated the very detailed outline of how to use all the wonderful amenities. We really appreciated all of the small touches like bath gel, dishwasher tabs, beach towels etc etc. The view was tremendous and the house is close to downtown Beacon which has some great eateries. It was about 30 minutes from West Point which was perfect for our stay.

a wonderful way to celebrate a milestone birthday

The house was simply fantastic. It was spacious and welcoming, and extremely comfortable. The basement playroom was a tremendous hit with our three grandchildren, ages 2 and a half, 7, and 11, and the adults also enjoyed playing darts there and ping pong, and occasionally working out with weights and the treadmill. There were art supplies galore and tons of videos and an electric keyboard that delighted everyone. We all loved the pool, and as parents and grandparents, appreciated the safety measures ensuring that no little ones could slip out of the house to the pool without setting off the alarm. We had wonderful evenings building a fire and roasting marshmallows and enjoyed the spacious, well equipped kitchen. The house is very close to great hiking trails and to the town of Beacon. We wanted a house where three generations could celebrate my husband’s 75th birthday and we had 5 days of fun and togetherness in a beautiful setting. Couldn’t ask for more!

Far exceeds expectations

I booked this property almost 2 years earlier as a "home base" during my daughters wedding weekend . The minute we walked into the impeccably clean house you can feel the warmth of this home. Although it is large and spacious, the decor, the brightness and the views all exude cozy and familiar. Every detail has been thought out from availability of fun activities to stocking the house with anything you may need during your stay. The property is stunning- beautiful, perfectly maintained grounds and pool. Melissa is available within minutes to respond to any questions. If you are looking for a magnificent home in a perfectly serene location (2 miles from Main street) BOOK IT. You will not be sorry.

lovely setting for a family reunion

We are a combined family of 5 adults and 5 children and had a wonderful,comfortable and memorable stay at this very spacious and beautiful home. The center of fun was the built in pool complete with slide, floats , diving board. It provided activity for everyone without even leaving the house. The basement area complete with toys ( variety of nerf guns was a definite plus!) ping pong table, and large screen TV kept everybody busy in the evenings. There is also a barbecue to enjoy and a commercial type stove for family breakfasts in the morning. There's a basketball hoop on the driveway which added to the fun The beds were super comfortable and cozy. The master bedroom is more like a suite . It's huge! the rooms are just laid out perfectly to accommodate family living We didn't explore the town too much but we'll have to wait until our next visit for that!! Thank you Melisa for a great vacation!!!!

Beyond our expectations

We decided to take our grown children and grandchildren on a family vacation since we’re a bit scattered geographically. Just wanted time together. This house is amazing. It was immaculate. Stocked with every amenity. The views are spectacular, peaceful, healing. I cannot think of a better space to reconnect and enjoy your people. The owner was immediately responsive and genuinely cared about our needs and comfort. Speaking of comfort…even the beds were incredibly comfortable. The house is set up for both togetherness and ability to do your own thing. The pool was fantastic. My kids and grandkids took advantage of everything. Down in the basement was like an entertainment haven for any age. Toddler toys, ping pong, punching bag, basketball outside. If you are an active family like we are there is even equipment for skateboarding, basketball, tennis, pool toys, pool slide, etc. I can’t say enough about how much it meant to spend time with my family in this kind of environment. We ranged in age from 2-73. Every single one of us loved it. The home and owners could not possibly have been more accommodating and the home had everything. One more thing….both my boys and I are serious cooks. The kitchen is to die for. We utilized and enjoyed every amenity. Do yourself and your family a favor and go to this home. Our time was priceless. Thank you to the owners

Awesome stay in great location

Melissa was a great host and the property was awesome. The house had everything we needed for a fun weekend in Beacon with friends. It was remote enough to feel like you were in nature but was close driving distance to a bunch of towns including Beacon and Cold Spring. Unfortunately the weather was not great while we were there, however it seemed like the house was equipped with fun outdoor and summer activities. The house would be perfect for a large family, multiple families, or a group of friends. The bedrooms and layout were exactly as described and we really enjoyed our stay!

Our stay was nothing short of perfect! Communicating with Melissa was easy while planning and during our trip. She responded quickly to our questions and was eager to make our stay enjoyable. Her home was pristine, beautiful and well equipped from kitchen to games to the beautiful outdoor space. Downtown Beacon was a short drive or Uber away.

Amazing Family Vacation

We traveled here to visit with my son and his family and meet our new grandchild. It was the perfect home for so many different ages of children, parents and grandparents. The pool is fabulous and had everything we needed for grown ups and little ones. The view of the river and sunset were breathtaking. The home has every amenity you could ask for and the climbing wall, and game tables were a big hit. We can’t wait to come back. Thank you Melissa for the perfect spot to enjoy our growing family!!
