The house is so clean and has a really cool artsy vibe, lots of great books and games. We will definitely come back and reconnect to friends. ##### Michelle F. Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 23 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Graduation weekend Stayed at the house with my family. The home was very clean and in a great location close to New Paltz for my son’s graduation. We especially liked the sun room. A back deck is being built with a hot tub which will be a nice addition to the amenities. Liana was very responsive and we enjoyed the stay very much. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Enid K. 6 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lovely mid-century modern home I would love to keep this gem all to myself, but that would be unkind. The location is a stones throw from New Paltz, but secluded enough to be removed from the crowds. The house feels like you're sitting high in the trees with big windows and cozy furniture. They also have the best LP collection to just lay back and chill in the sunroom. I would definitely rent this house again. Same time next year??? : - ) ##### Enid K. Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sylvie C. 16 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful stay and host! Sure, here’s a positive Vrbo review: --- \*\*5 Stars: Amazing Stay!\*\* We had an incredible time at this lovely vacation rental! The house was exactly as described, even more beautiful in person. It was spotless, well-maintained, and fully equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location was perfect - short drive to cute shops and restaurants, but still felt secluded enough for our liking. For those looking to explore the Hudson Valley, it’s location is convenient to surrounding towns like Beacon and Rhinebeck. The host was fantastic—very responsive and accommodating. Quickly shipped us items we left behind. We particularly enjoyed listening to her record collection in the beautifully decorated sunroom with our two pups. The quality of furnishings and supplies made it feel like we were staying at a friend’s house (albeit, a friend with impeccable style and cleanliness). This rental made our vacation truly memorable. We highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable getaway in a swanky home. We can't wait to return! ##### Sylvie C.
