Location: Kerhonkson, Hudson Valley, New York, USA (100 miles north of NY City, near New Paltz, Shawangunk Mts.,)
Accommodations: Cottage, 1 Bedroom, 1 Bath (Sleeps 2)
THE AREA: Sky Island is the unique ecosystem of the Shawangunk Mountains, the craggy cliffs famous among rock climbers. Nestled between the Rondout Creek and the D&H Canal, Sky Island Cottage sits in a pastoral glade of trees, birds and deer. Kerhonkson is a Hudson River Valley town whose natural beauty is amplified by being in the valley between the Catskills and Shawangunk Mountains. It's a five minute drive to Minnewaska State Park and the Mohonk Preserve.
THE COTTAGE: The totally renovated 1840’s cottage is ideal for a couple, but also serves as a peaceful getaway for anyone wishing to spend some quiet time alone. It has a wood burning fireplace, cathedral ceiling with skylights and a private deck. It's an easy entry to the D&H Canal Rail Trail for walking, bicycling, cross-country skiing or bird watching.
For the health and comfort of our guests, no smoking is permitted in the cottage. Regretfully, we cannot accommodate children or pets.
