Amazing stay!

Everything about my experience was perfect! The house was like stepping back in time but with all the modern amenities. So much attention to detail to make sure our stay was comfortable. Wonderful hosts! I’ve stayed at a lot of places through VRBO and this was definitely one of the very best!

Great location, very quiet! Great view of the Hudson River. THE BEST stocked rental I’ve ever stayed at as far as kitchen supplies, toiletry, and charging accessories.

Awesome!

A very lovingly updated 19th c home directly on the Hudson River with stunning views! We were 3 couples away for a wedding and the house suited us perfectly. A large, Sunny well-equipped open kitchen/dining area that served as our main gathering area. Plenty of space For each couple to have privacy

Classic mid-nineteenth century Hudson River Valley waterfront house. Having grown up close to this town I should know. If you are thinking of moving from a big city to a rural hamlet in the Hudson River Valley, this place is a must.

Relaxing Labor Day weekend on the Hudson River

My 2 girlfriends and I, along with our husbands, spent the Labor Day weekend at this lovely house on the Hudson River. It was well appointed, including small touches like cotton balls and razors in the bathroom, towels for the little rocky beach that’s accessible in the morning at low tide, and a lovely bottle of wine on the table when we arrived. The great view of the river was so relaxing and we found ourselves outside frequently on one of the large porches. Jennifer was also great to work with. Highly recommend!,

A writer's dream!

Our group of four poets and novelists was looking for a week-long retreat site. This proved to be a magical, inspirational location. Big enough for us each to find our own silent work spot (usually our rooms, but also outside); intimate enough for fun dinners in the kitchen and craft conversations in the living room. The kitchen is stocked with plenty of equipment and staples (best I've seen in a rental). The bedrooms and bathrooms are very spacious, comfy, and full of great linens. Two porches offer many comfortable chairs and sofas, with amazing views of the yard and river. Overall, this is a home that has been so thoughtfully planned and curated for comfort, functionality, and relaxation.The neighborhood is quiet, filled with historic homes and not much activity, but that's why we picked it. "Dreamy" was a word we used again and again. It felt like we'd gone back to Mark Twain's time, but with modern amenities. The Hudson, a working river at close range, contributed to this feeling.Our host, Jennifer, was so kind and easy to reach with questions. We would definitely return!

We cannot wait to return!!!

I cannot say enough about this home! We felt like we were visiting the home of family, not strangers. It’s the perfect balance of historically whimsical charm and chic, classic modern comfort. The entire home was thoughtfully appointed from the fully stocked kitchen and coffee nook to makeup towels and soft linens - even the fluffy throw blankets in every corner. You will not lack for things to do both inside the home and outside. Everything was carefully labeled in such thoughtful ways, you never found yourself thinking “how do we turn that light on?” There was even a beautifully decorated Christmas tree and lighted garland on the banister! Jennifer and Eric were responsive, kind, and incredibly helpful. We cannot wait to return in warmer weather!! Thank you, Jennifer and Eric, for sharing your gorgeous home with us! Your thoughtfulness was felt around every corner. - Shaun and Michelle

About the host

Hosted by Jennifer Whipple

Host profile image
I live in New York City with my husband Eric and 14-year-old daughter. It has been such an amazing journey raising a family in the heart of New York City; especially since Eric hails from Wisconsin and I'm from Northern Virginia.
We have always loved watching Chip and Joanna transform homes on their show Fixer Upper, and we're thrilled to share our historic home project with you! Don't worry, there's no shiplap!

Why they chose this property

I most enjoy the beauty of the neighborhood and the tranquility of this little street. The most dominant sound you will hear is the songs of various birds including cries from majestic bald eagles. Seeing these birds soar by always takes my breath away.

Watching pleasure boats, barges, tankers, kayaks and canoes to up and down the river is alway a very enjoyable activity. We have a kayak and a 5-person paddle boat available for guests should you want to get out there and join them!

What makes this property unique

This property is magical, there is no other way to describe it. It is warm and inviting and super comfortable and the perfect place to get away from it all.

When you want a great meal or excellent shopping, there are many cute towns a short drive away including, Coxsackie, Athens and Hudson.

For the winter sports lovers, there is great skiing, snowboarding and tubing nearby at and Hunter Mountain and Windham Mountain Club. Hunter Mountain also features New York Zipline Adventures Tours. These tours are offered year-round and this is the longest and highest zip line in North America.
