About this property

Woodstove, firepit, lakeviews and access to lake, hiking trails, large terrace!

Relax and enjoy nature in this lakeside retreat! Only 75 minutes from Manhattan, with Metro North access nearby.

Wake up to the sunrise over the lake with stunning views from the master bedroom; enjoy the private lake or one of many nearby hiking & biking trails; cook in the fully equipped kitchen or outdoor grill; and wind down with a bath in the jetted tub and a fire in the indoor wood stove or outdoor fire pit.

Everything you need for a weekend getaway or week by the lake!

An updated A-frame lakeside chalet, our home has everything you need for summer lakeside fun, fall Upstate foliage viewing, or a cozy winter getaway.

Access. Entire home, deck, driveway, yard, and shared access to the lake (3 small beach / dock areas). Please note that our home is not directly on the beach, but a short walk away from the lake.

Access to the private lake and small beach area is available via a slightly steep path directly across from the house. There are also two other access points a 5 and 10 minute walk (or short drive) down the road (both have less steep pathways to the lake).

We provide some swimming equipment such as rafts and floatation devices. Kayaks will be available between April -November.

Local attractions include the nearby Appalachian Trail, Empire State Trail, and other hiking and biking paths. Check out Fishkill Farms or Barton Orchards for farm-based fun, live music, and food. Pawling Village is a short drive away, or take a trip to visit Hudson Valley gems like Beacon or the Culinary Institute of America.

Thunder Ridge ski resort is only 15 min away. There is a ringbell camera at the basement entrance door for safety. Photo ID is required for booking.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.
