About this property

Sunny House on Lake Oscawana

Lovely year round house on the shores of Lake Oscawana in Putnam County, just 1h 15m from NYC, and very close to Fahnestock State Park for stunning hikes. The views and tranquility are wonderful, and the house is very cosy.

3 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, sauna, dock, lake front, 3 walls of windows, fully stocked kitchen (everything you could want pots and utensils-wise, plus spices and everything), big deck, and use of 2 paddleboards, 1 kayak, 1 canoe. It is a sunny delight, very quiet and beautiful.

Entering from street level, the dining room, living room, kitchen and deck are all accessible with no stairs. There is one King bedroom with en suite bathroom and one Queen with another bathroom upstairs; downstairs there is a family room with two Twins (or two Trundles), and a study with en suite bathroom. Two bathrooms have bath tubs (one is a claw foot tub) and showers, and two have just showers.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

About the host

Host profile image
I'm a Brit who moved to the States in 1999 and never left, although I spend a fair amount of time in Europe still. I work in the media industry.

Why they chose this property

I've been coming to Lake Oscawana with friends for years, and was looking for a house up here for at least 5 years. They don't come up too often, so when I heard that Cayuga Road was for sale, I dropped everything and ran up to see it before it went on the market. I fell in love with it, and put in an offer immediately after seeing it.

The house has an incredibly good vibe, so says everyone who comes to stay. It is just a lovely, happy house. Apparently Babe Ruth used to get his hair cut in the front bedroom of the house, which in the 1920s was the barber's place.

What makes this property unique

The views are stunning: it looks across the water to a nature reserve. It's a lovely community, and Cold Spring, which is charming, is a mere 16 minutes away. Amazing hiking, access to the Hudson River, and fun on the lake: what's not to love? Oh, and the claw foot tub in the stone bathroom? That's my favourite room in the house! ;-)
