The Perfect Upstate Getaway

We were a group of friends (two couples) up for the weekend from NYC. Everything was perfection! The pull out couch was really comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked, the outdoor grill worked great, there was a ton of wood for the fire pit, and Jon was great to communicate with. Waking up to views of the pond and watching the stars at night was lovely. We had a blast and highly recommend!

Great Location, Great Host

We truly enjoyed both the grounds and surrounding area. The host's sharing his knowledge of where to go and what to see really enhanced our trip and saved us precious time. We're looking forward to returning in the near future.

A most pleasant venue with very good vibes

Peaceful view of a gorgeous pond from the sliding glass doors of both the bedroom and the living room. A well appointed full kitchen and spacious bathroom. Perfect dining room too.All rooms were clean and cozy. The host, Jon is very thoughtful and exudes kindness. He knows the local trails, restaurants and virtually everything anout New Paltz and beyond. I will return to the Blue Heron!

Great place!

This was a very comfortable stay for my friend and me. It was super clean and the owner was easy to contact. He made it possible for us to accommodate two cars. The location was great to do all kinds of Hudson Valley things. We enjoyed New Paltz and Rosendale. Also made it over to Hyde Park. The property has a pond in the back and we would have loved to sit on the patio if the weather had cooperated. Instead we enjoyed seeing a heron catch his breakfast. Would stay here again.
