LARGE COZY Sleeps 7 Main House + Opt. Apt 4 More (+Fee) Pool/Pond!

“Classically American” in its design, this family home in Woodstock is very flexible. The main house has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms---it sleeps 7 adults. Not enough space? There is also a newly furnished, one-bedroom apartment that can accommodate 4 more adults (extra cost). So, a total of 11 adults can be comfortably accommodated. Large family gatherings are very popular here. And in the warmer months, there is a very special pool/pond.

Both the main house and the apartment have their own laundry facilities. The spacious deck off the main-house kitchen is great for outdoor cooking on the gas grill, and the large backyard is wonderful for playing. The man-made natural pool pond is wonderful for swimming during the summer months, and beautiful to look at any time of year. The pool/pond is lined, fresh water, filtered by special plants. No chemicals at all. The black liner absorbs a lot of sun, and the pond is heated naturally that way.

NOTE: Price quoted is for main house only. Apartment is $150/night + $75 cleaning. We will send you a manual quote is you take the apartment also.

If you're here during the winter, you can enjoy the cozy woodstove in the dining room, safe and snug as you drink your morning coffee looking out into the woods to spot wildlife, and to watch the snow fall on the pond. The backyard is big, a perfect place for building your best snowman ever!

The name of our property—Shanti Neer—means place of peace. It is a serene and spacious 2+ acre property. This house is conveniently located. It is less than 10 minutes from Woodstock, 12 minutes to Saugerties, and about 12 minutes to Kingston as well.

All hardwood floors downstairs and new bamboo floors upstairs. In the main house, bedrooms are all upstairs and include two queen bedrooms and a bedroom with two twin beds, each with special new non-allergenic, soy foam mattresses. The fourth bedroom has a new, full-size, sofa-bed plus a desk for anyone with work to do or a book to write! Master bedroom and bathroom are en-suite, and there is a second full bathroom upstairs in the hall. A third full bathroom is on the first floor.

The colorful country kitchen has everything you need to make the best cup of coffee or cook up a storm, and it is laid out so that more than one cook can enjoy it at the same time! New appliances include a gas range top, double electric ovens, microwave, etc. The 28-ft open-plan kitchen/dining room is bright and airy and includes a table that seats 6 - 10. All ready for family breakfasts, a down-home meal, a sophisticated dinner party or a special celebration!

It’s an easy few steps round the brick wall divider into to the welcoming living room, where everyone can comfortably sink into sofas to chill-out, talk, read, snooze or savor!

And a few steps from there, an inviting East-meets-West TV room/den boasts a stunning oriental carpet, embroidered pillows and hand-woven throws strewn over the love-seat and sofa. A new Samsung 46” TV is tucked away into a handsome Chinese cinnabar-red lacquer cabinet. Books and games are stashed on shelves for you to enjoy and peruse.

As stated above, the apartment can be rented with the house, or not, as your need for space requires. RATES QUOTED HERE ARE FOR THE MAIN HOUSE ONLY. If you are interested in the apartment also, please contact us. If you would like to see photos of the apartment, put ID #4049093 into the search box on the HomeAway home page.

All on the first floor, the apartment is a newly furnishd one-bedroom with a new queen-size matttress. In the living room we have also provided a top-quality, comfortable pull-out couch that is queen-size also. There is a full bath, and a comfortable, well-equipped eat-in kitchen with dining space for at least 4.

The property is amazingly flexible. Plenty of space in the common areas, and plenty of space for privacy as well.

SETTING: Nestled in the woods on the edge of Woodstock, you are less than 10 minutes from the center of the town of Woodstock. But you are also just about twelve minutes away from Saugerties for great antiquing and HITS! And if you have Mall withdrawal, a fifteen-minute drive will take you to Kingston for suburban shopping, or a quaint visit to the Stockade Area where the original capital of New York State was actually placed!
THINGS TO DO: Woodstock, the original Colony of the Arts, is on the threshold of the 700,000-acre Catskill State Park, where a farming community settled by the Dutch in the 17th century found a way to accommodate all those crazy artists that arrived in the early 20th century. The beauty of the Catskill Mountains inspired the Byrdcliffe Art Colony, became the summer home of the New York Art Students League, and gave rise to the Maverick Concert Hall. There is more to do here than you can imagine!
There are great restaurants and cafes boasting international cuisine as well as American, boutiques, antique stores, health-food stores, an art store, a movie house, two book stores, an exceptional shoe store, and the best hardware store in the world. And, of course, you can visit Byrdcliffe and The Woodstock Artists Association and Museum, or you can hear great chamber music in the woods at Maverick.
Nearby you will find golf, horseback riding, hiking, fishing, tennis, river walks and even river dips, bike rentals, sledding and snow-shoeing. Check out galleries, the week-end flea market, mid-week farmer's market. And as you'd expect in Woodstock -- there’s a wide selection of yoga, massage, Pilates, Reiki, and Qigong, not to mention spa services. If esoterica is what you are after, psychic, tarot and astrological readings are of course always on offer! For fun, join the Sunday afternoon open drumming sessions on 'the village green' right in the center of town. You'll also find places of worship of many denominations: Catholic; Jewish; Christian; Hindu; Buddhist—Zen and Tibetan, plus several different spiritual retreat centers.
We invite you to come see for yourself and greatly look forward to welcoming you!

The house that we rented was fantastic. It was pretty much located in the center of the area we were visiting. We had easy access to everything we needed. The house was extremely clean, well kept and the view over the pond was delightful. We would gladly stay at the house again when we return to the area next year if it is available. We would though prefer a house that has one room with full bath/walk-in shower on the first floor as we have an individual who has issues with stairs. She was able to manage as there was a bathroom on the first floor and we gave her the master bedroom which had a walk-in shower. Over all the house and the grounds were fantastic. We really appreciated it.

Woodstock Weekend
My family and friends spent a couple of days at the property while in town to watch SunDub at The Colony Woodstock. We had a lovely time at the house and made second Thanksgiving Dinner. The kitchen was setup nicely so that several of us could work at the same time. The double stove set up was excellent. Accommodations were great and we enjoyed the outside firepit and the indoor wood stove. It must be lovely on a hot August night with the pond/pool. We were careful not to leave any food outside for the local bears.

Wonderful stay
We spent a wonderful 5 days over New Years. The house is beautifully decorated and sits nestled back on a quiet wooded road. The kitchen and dining area are comfortable and warm. There are two living rooms. The pond kept the kids entertained for hours (throwing snowballs into it—yay for simple pleasures!) I have been staying at VRBO’s for 20 years and have never experienced such a generous host—from the stocked kitchen to the abundant linens and shampoo/conditioner/soap to the firewood to her encouragement in the guest book to keep the house at as comfortable a temperature as we wanted. The host was also quite responsive when we contacted her because we couldn’t find something. During this grueling pandemic year with so much hardship, our stay was a light in our lives! Thank you!
