About this property

TOTALLY PRIVATE!!! Our 85-acre parcel of land located in northern Dutchess County offers a variety of terrain for exploring - woods, streams, meadows, and even a gorge.

The log cabin, on the shore of our privately owned three and one-half acre lake, is the only dwelling on the lake. The closest neighbor to it is close to 1/4 mile away.

A large, stone fireplace and a picture window overlooking the lake are the special features of the cabin as well as the covered front porch with hanging chairs and redwood sofa and chairs. Sleep on a queen sized sofa bed in our large living room. There are also chairs and hammocks hanging outside from a number of trees.

Outdoor cooking is made pleasurable with your choice of a gas grill or a stone charcoal barbecue, and dining is done on a large picnic table sitting on a fieldstone patio or on a picnic table at the dock area. You can also dine inside in front of the picture window, if you prefer. A herb garden (in season) offers a choice of 12 different herbs to use in your cooking!

Outdoor lighting is extensive if you desire it. We prefer the stars and moonlight reflecting off the lake!

Love this cabin

The cabin is really cute & has wind chimes & garden art all around it that integrates so perfectly with the natural oasis it is set in. This is a great place for a nature loving couple to enjoy. Singing birds, frogs, turtles chipmunks & fish in the lake, are the only neighbors you will notice o this beautiful property. Karen is a lovely gracious host and both she and the cabin are very welcoming & charming. Its a perfect spot go to with your soulmate & reconnect with nature.

Little Slice of Paradise

Talk about cozy, this place tops them all! Time seems to slow down when you are staying in this well appointed cabin. We loved sitting in the rocking chair inside or the one on the porch overlooking the pond. Hiking trails are well marked leading from the cabin and the bird watching over the pond was great. You are very much to yourselves while staying here as it is very rural. And, the bed was fantastic!

Weekend Escape

We are relatively local - Cold Spring and Beacon. But we felt like we were worlds away! The cabin was quintessential and super cozy, and the property was a quick skip to all the local attractions. Karen was absolutely lovely - ice cream sundaes were a very sweet treat. We were wanting to just be with each other and unplug, and this weekend delivered on that. Would love to visit again in the fall.

Peace, love & fish!

The owner, Karen, showed she was an amazing host before we even arrived !! She left us two ice cream sundaes in the freezer and gave us a tour of the property. It was so cool to visit a place that has been having guests for the last 20+ years.... The cabin is so peaceful...the property truly is away from the world. There were plenty of kitchen utensils, towels, blankets etc to use. This place is great for walking/hikes, fishing off the dock or the row boat. We fished the entire weekend and caught over 100 fish between the two of us!! We fell asleep to the crickets and bull frogs and woke up to the birds chirping.We took advantage of the fireplace all weekend, super easy to use and they even gave us a free basket of wood! We truly couldn't have asked for a better weekend, cabin or host. We will most certainly be visiting again.

Lovely Secluded Stay

My partner and I spent time at Karen's property for our 6 year anniversary and it was everything we wanted it to be. Quiet, quaint and a breathe of fresh air from the busy Brooklyn life. Karen was warm, welcoming and walked us through everything we would possibly need for our stay. Highly recommend staying here for a getaway from the city!

Magic pure magic

There aren't enough words to describe the peacefulness and serenity this cabin brings. It's a magical place, especially for couples who need slow down and reconnect. Karen is an amazing host and the cabin is a romantic retreat. The property is gorgeous. We enjoyed the wind chimes, laying in the hammock by the lake, taking the row boat out on the lake, and hiking the trails. We even used some of the herbs from the herb garden for our dinner. But the best part hands down is the fireplace... we don't even want to leave the cabin when we're there. This was our 3rd trip in a year and we are already planning our 4th! You need this.... trust me.

An absolutely lovely escape from reality

We had a wonderful time in this charming cabin that is every bit as quiet and peaceful as advertised. The grounds are positively lovely. The hammocks, rowboat to explore the lake, and the blissfully shady porch to look out at the lake and enjoy the sounds of nature (which we seldom get to hear as city people) were all extensively used by us. The cabin would be absolutely perfect if it had an oven (for baking on rainy days -- it does have an electric stove and otherwise very well-stocked kitchen), a larger and more modern TV for the night-time, and in my opinion, a more comfortable bed to sleep on, though that's subjective. I'm giving it top marks anyway because we had a wonderful week that we won't soon forget and got to relax and unwind more here than any other vacation we've ever taken. Karen is a lovely host and she left us delicious ice cream sundaes!

Nice rustic getaway

My wife and I stayed here for a week in July. We met the host Karen at her house which sits maybe 1/4 mile down the road from the cabin. She was very nice and took time to show us around the rental cabin which was very private and right at the lakefront. We enjoyed the rope hammock swings on the front porch while looking out onto the lake. Fishing was great both from the dock and from the rowboat. Plenty of seats and hammocks scattered around the property. The cabin was well stocked with all the necessities. Overall we really enjoyed out stay and Karen was great. Looking forward to coming back next year.

Gorgeous and secluded property that's perfect for a couple

We had an amazing time at this absolutely gorgeous property. It really is private and isolated from the main house and the road - we felt like we were all alone in the woods without own private lake the whole time. Easy access to hiking trails and walkable to the Taconic distillery. If you have any concerns about the sofa in place of a bed, we can put those to rest - it was entirely comfortable and we slept great. And Karen was an easy going and gracious host. We're already talking about coming back!
