Waterfront Oasis w/ Great Views, 5 beds & deck over the Creek!
Relax at River Song House - your own private waterfront hideaway with 5 bedrooms / 2 full bath and a relaxed, designer vibe. Private grounds slope down to a waterfront deck/dock, bluestone patio, fire pit, 10 seater outdoor table, 2 double hammocks and direct frontage on the banks of the Esopus Creek! Perfect place for couples, friends, or family get- togethers. Check out the water views from the wall of windows in the living area, with cathedral ceiling, vintage leather couches & a dining area with an 8 seater table made from raw-edge Catskill Pine. The large kitchen has everything you need for cooking meals plus a butcher-block counter window to sit & chat with whoever is making the food.. or mixing the drinks. Wall mounted Smart TV, Central Heating & Air Conditioning throughout the house, side deck with seating for morning coffee or evening wine, bonus sunroom/ meditation/yoga/work space! Wonderful central location - just minutes to Saugerties, Woodstock, Rhinebeck, Kingston and the attractions of the Hudson Valley, with nearby supermarkets, great restaurants, shopping, hiking & The Hudson River!
River Song was originally built back in 1930, as a fisherman's cottage. We're NYC photographers and fell in love with the house & property the first time we saw it. We decided to expand & renovate the house, as our vacation getaway. We had a curated, chill, Zen- meets- rock'n'roll vibe in mind. We hope you like it ! Original music photography & 1950's movie posters decorate the walls - a nod to the rich musical and artistic heritage of the Hudson Valley.
Most of the house in on one level, including Living room, Kitchen, Dining area, 3 of the bedrooms, & the 2 bathrooms plus a sunroom room with designer lounge chairs and a desk & chair, if you need to work.
THE BEDROOMS
#1 The Primary Bedroom has a luxury KING size bed, double closet, 2 nightstands dresser & TV
#2 QUEEN size bed with large closet, dresser & 2 nightstands
#3 FULL size bed with large closet & 2 nightstands
#4 & #5 Upstairs, up a fairly steep set of stairs , there are 2 small bedrooms - both have moveable screen doors. One has an original 1930 built-in single wooden bed, the other has two single beds, nightstands & river views.
Outside there's a back deck with built-in seating & chairs for morning coffee , plus a table & chairs for alfresco dining & a gas BBQ Grill. The gently sloping yard goes down past a boathouse shed ( not in use), to a waterfront patio area with 10 seater outdoor table, multiple Adirondack chairs, a separate fire pit area and your very own dock / deck directly on the water !
Things to Note: - No smoking anywhere on the property. - No parties, events or large gatherings are allowed. Only the number of people on your booking are permitted on the property. - There is off street parking on the driveway and free street parking too. - The old wood stove in the living area is non-working, do not attempt to light it. - The front of the property has a small one bed apartment with its own entrance, which is rented separately and not included. You may see another car on the driveway. - There is a large heated/air conditioned artist/photography/yoga studio at the front of the property. This has its own entrance and can be added to your reservation. If interested please inquire for more info / rates.
People with children or mobility issues please note that this is a waterfront property and is bordered on one side by the Esopus Creek, with a sloping yard down to the banks of the Creek & deck/dock open to the water. At the front of the house, on the other side of the street, there's a train track with a slow-moving freight train that will trundle past, on no fixed schedule, from time to time. It's not especially loud (some folks say they love the sound... but be aware if you think that would bother you! ) River Song House is a magical spot to gather, relax & unwind...or just sit by the beautiful Esopus Creek and watch life float by !

The perfect space for our annual reunion of six friends. We raved about the comfort of the mattresses and the great variety of shared spaces we could gather in, from the long dining table to the living room to the backyard. Absolutely incredible!
We liked everything about the house but the two upstairs bedrooms were very small, had no doors, and the stairs leading to them are steep. The screens in those rooms offer privacy but don't block any noise from the first floor.
