Simone's farm was very lovely that we stayed an extra day to relax after my daughter's wedding. Very tastefully designed and definitely recommend families and couples to stay at the farm very close to New Paltz and hiking area. Also, my doggies enjoyed the fenced in backyard:)Thank you again Simone,
Nicely updated farmhouse on great property. Lots of rooms to spread out and big dining room for everyone to gather for meals. Well supplied kitchen made cooking easy. Great communications with owners when weather got bad and for instructions using fireplace. Would stay again when in area.
This property is so amazing! Modern and up to date and so well kept! We loved the art, space and setting. A very comfortable and welcoming place/environment.
Beautiful house with everything you need! And the host Simone was very responsive and helpful. We could not recommend this property more highly -- it's the perfect country getaway.
We had a lovely weekend at Simone’s placeWonderful hiking nearby and a peaceful escape from the city. We got to have our favorite Catskills pizza at Ollies in High Falls and see fireflies in the yard at night. Clean and well appointed and would certainly come back again.
House is in a quiet location on a nice property. Sufficiently equipped for grilling/cooking. 10-30 minutes to hikes and towns depending on where you are going. Neighborhood is good to walk/run/bike in.
The property was absolutely perfect. The house is the epitome of North East cozy charm...with the beautiful grounds full of snow and the amazing hardwood floors and most cozy room with a fireplace and wood beamed ceilings!!!! I loved this property and the host was amazing. Very accessible!!
Beautiful farmhouse located on a quiet, desolate street. Beautiful views of the property. A very peaceful retreat. Excellent, prompt communication from the host. Highly recommend this property!
We absolutely loved staying at this Eden-like property. Our goal was to just relax, and when we got out of the car after a long, fairly stressful drive, all we heard was birds chirping and all we smelled was honeysuckles. Just lovely. The Farmhouse has everything you need to feel at home, with a user-friendly, updated kitchen, comfy bed (we just used the master bedroom) and a deep soaking tub in the master bathroom. The house has been so thoughtfully and tastefully updated so that the vintage atmosphere of the farmhouse has been honored, yet there are so many modern details and comforts. And even though it feelsg like another world there, New Paltz is but a quick, easy drive away--as are other many other activities. We were only there for a few days and our main goal was to catch up on some work, read and just VEGETATE! We were very sad to leave and already wondering when we can try to go back! : )
This home has been updated nicely and is situated on a nice amount of land to take your pup for a nice walk during the mornings and whenever you are "at home." The kitchen has been well renovated and the beds are very comfy. Close to lots of good hiking and food in New Paltz and the surrounding area. Simone is a responsive host.
We had a perfect stay at the beautiful farmhouse with all of the modern amenities.Outdoor space is to die for fenced in for your pup walking trails nature trails water features running streams..Cherry on top is that the listing is very generous with check-in and checkout times you can check in at 3 and you check out at 12. This feature allows for true relaxation!Book it!!
Really enjoyed our time. Great recommendations for dinners. Nice quiet location. Great place for our dog to play outside. Fireplace didn’t seem to work was only glitch. Would recommend to others for sure

Response from VrboOwner on Jan 9, 2024
Not sure why he is saying the fireplace wasn’t working it’s a wood fireplace and you need to insert the wood and light it.
It’s not electric.
I am always available for any questions during your stay!
Very cozy, warm, and welcoming farmhouse, updated with great amenities and tasteful modern addition, with a generous dining room and easy to use kitchen. All spaces, rooms, linens, kitchenware, etc. were clean and well-maintained. Beautiful wooded property with ponds, streams, and access up to Gertrude's Nose Trail directly behind the property via a vigorous hike on well-delineated hiking paths. We highly recommend the property, and the Property Manager (Simone) was great.
Great communication with owner - very helpful and quick to respond. Simone did anything she could to make our stay a success. Renovated old farmhouse on beautiful property. Well done renovated bathrooms. Plenty of pots and pans for cooking. We had two toddlers and there are several short steps inside that we needed to keep close watch on around the steps.
This is a great place to stay if you're going to Minnewaska State Park or the Mohonk Preserve, both of which are just a 15 minute drive away. The kitchen is well appointed and had everything we needed for a five night stay. I thought the beds would be uncomfortable when I first saw them because they are on platforms without box springs, but that wasn't the case and we both slept very well. And we were very pleased that the master bedroom had a king sized bed because so many of the other VRBO's didn't.
We were comfortable, we had everything we needed, and the place was beautiful. What more could you ask for in a VRBO?
This was a quaint farmhouse with a lot of character. Very clean and spacious. I would say that only issue was that all the floorboards were so creaky that if you got up at night it was very loud, but that came with the age of the house. WiFi super fast, Simone very nice, very hospitable. The surrounding lake and ponds with turtles were fab, wildlife ubundant, resident chipmunk by the window each day. Quiet area up in the mountain in Wallkill, peaceful and a nice drive to pine bush, new Paltz.
Gated entrance with good parking,
This was the first visit to the Stares for our elderly friends, and they loved the whole experience. Creaks from their joints as well as the floorboards 👍
Highly recommended
We were a party of 5, myself and my husband with our three 20 something kids. The house is modest from the exterior but the interior is very special. Old wide pine floors and wood beamed ceilings - very unexpected! Everything we needed was there, comfortable furnishings and a tv to watch the basketball games. The property itself is gorgeous, with a waterfall in the backyard and expansive lawn. It's a short walk or drive to a lake with other lakes and hikes nearby. Very private area. Three bathrooms is also very nice to have! Lots to do in the area and close by. We went to FDRs home and presidential library, Westwind Orchards for pizza, golfing and LegoLand. The drives are beautiful! Very relaxing way to spend a long weekend. Simone is a great host with lots of info about things to do and places to eat in the area.

About the host
Hosted by Simone
I been in the Hudson Valley for 18 years and we started sharing our property back in 2009 just when Vrbo started in this Area. I love traveling myself and always enjoyed having the best time when we stayed in a private home that feels like home
Why they chose this property
I love this area since it's only 90mins from New York and the perfect distance for a nice getaway. you have so many out door options here that I love from Hiking, climbing, biking, x-country skiing and even skydiving what me actually got to the area at first.
What makes this property unique
what makes this property unique is that it's very private and you are bordering natural preserve so you can't get any closer to nature. still you are very close to Gardiner and New Paltz or even Pine Bush for all your needs
