Our charming 1890s farmhouse is full of natural light and good vibes! Very close to downtown New Paltz and Rosenadale, to the Shawangunk Mountains, Minnewaska State Park, and Mohonk Mountain, and across from the Walkill Valley Rail Trail. Our two peaceful acres boast a farm pond, fruit trees, and sit on the Walkill River. There are four bedrooms, a kitchen, dining and living room. There is a wood burning stove and lots of cozy places to sit and enjoy the views of the property!

Parts of the outdoor space are shared with an adjacent property. While VRBO house guests have exclusive access to the large deck overlooking the pond, some areas of the two acres are shared with guests of the cottage, next door. Both houses are dog friendly but please keep dogs on leash at all times.
