Stunning serenity, perfect ambiance, we loved every minute of our stay! Comfy bed - SO comfy. The deer family running through the woods....is this a Diseny movie? Fireplace, stunning dining room area. Highly recommend!
Terrific place. Beautiful landscape. Just enough snow to make the forest look amazing. We were in town to visit family. Beds comfy. Would definitely book again.
Home was even more beautiful in person! We will definitively be back. We had a several inches of snow while there and the owner came and plowed us out 4 times! There are little touches everywhere to make your stay more comfortable - toiletries, items in the kitchen, games and guides etc. Such an inviting home to just relax!
Wonderful stay at this spectacular home. Great rest in the wilderness but still close to lakes and city of cold springs and the hudson river. Lookig forward to a return visit
Really nice spot. Beautiful views! The place was very clean and quiet. We had our family thanksgiving there and the kitchen was perfect. My only criticism is that 3rd bedroom is not really a full bedroom. It could use a door or something.
We had a very nice and relaxing stay. Joe was very communicative about situation that’s going on with the property. The house was spotless, had everything we needed, and our dog had a great time too! We can't wait to come back for our next stay.
it is amazing place ! beautiful and peaceful ...... very secluded everything that you need you could find in the kitchen if you cook for yourself the only suggestion to the owner to change the bed , too soft and you fall in when you lie on it
My family and I loved this property! We enjoyed walking around the woods and exploring. The house was well equipped and was really charming. We also loved sightseeing around the near by towns. Definitely a place to come back to stay again.
Amazing peaceful house with a beautiful patio and a camp fire site. Perfect to getaway from NYC noise. Only con is the bed in the main bedroom is very soft you can sink into, I
I can’t say enough about our stay. The home was very clean, the bed, pillows and towels were all very nice. The best part is the location. Secluded with beautiful views gave our family just what we needed this week. Great selection of games, the fire pit was wonderful for roasting smores and the animals visiting the front lawn was a treat. Highly recommended if you are looking for peace and tranquility.
Didn’t arrive till dark. Was a little nervous driving to the house on the narrow dark road. It seemed so far back into the woods wondered if I was in the right direction. When we walked in it was just as it was pictured. Very clean and nicely done. When we arose the next day we saw how beautiful the property was. So peaceful and beautiful views. Enjoyed our stay.
This was a great place to stay for our family weekend with our son. Beautiful country setting and included all of the amenities we needed. Wish we could have stayed longer!
What a beautiful space! It was very clean and the area quite remote. In the mornings, we saw deer and wild turkey. And so many birds! We didn’t hike any any trails, but there was a great guide available in the home that showed the property lines and gave info about the property! It was great for us and our kiddos.

Why they chose this property
If you want privacy with peace and quiet away from people then this is the place. No one will know that your out here other than your hosts.
What makes this property unique
So many unique benefits to this newly renovated old homestead. The home is made from stone and wood harvested from the property over 100 years ago. Doug fir wood flooring, stone fireplace even has an old farm sink from 1920. The mudroom upon entry is inviting with nice overlooking views of the long driveway and a small meadow.. Upon entering the main room you'll notice all the windows face the North ridge. The granite in the kitchen matches the old stone and gives the warm feeling that it too came from the property. The main dining area feels as if your sitting in the forest with it's natural pine interior and wall of windows. Just out the slider door and your on the deck that also faces the hills to the north and with a short walk down some stepping stones your at a fire pit. There are several on property hiking loops that are permitted to be used at certain times of the year dependent upon forest management practices please ask the hosts if they are available. The town of Carmel has several supermarkets and local restaurants. Shopping for any need can be found within a 30 min drive in any direction.
