About the host
Hosted by DAWN TAUBER
We’re longtime Hudson Valley locals who truly love this area and everything it has to offer. We enjoy spending time outdoors, especially boating, fishing, hiking, and relaxing by the lake, and Mombasha Lake has always felt like a special place to us.
We love being able to share that experience with our guests and hope the house feels like your own lake retreat while you’re here. Whether you’re visiting to explore the Hudson Valley, spend time on the water, hike the nearby trails, or simply relax and enjoy some peace and quiet, we want you to feel comfortable, welcome, and at home.
Why they chose this property
We chose this area because it offers the best of the Hudson Valley—peace, privacy, and beautiful natural surroundings, while still being convenient to nearby towns, shopping, dining, and local attractions. Mombasha Lake has a quiet, tucked-away feel that makes it easy to forget how close you are to everything.
We especially love being surrounded by lakes, mountains, and the natural beauty of the Monroe/Tuxedo area. Harriman State Park, Sterling Forest State Park, and the Appalachian Trail are all nearby, offering miles of hiking trails and endless opportunities to explore the outdoors. It’s a wonderful setting for anyone who wants to slow down, enjoy the lake and surrounding wilderness, and still have plenty to see and do nearby.
What makes this property unique
Our lake house offers a rare combination of privacy and nature, right on beautiful Mombasha Lake. Tucked away in a peaceful setting, the property feels like a true escape while still being close to everything you need.
What really makes this property special is the feeling of having your own private lake retreat in the Hudson Valley. Surrounded by the natural beauty of the Monroe/Tuxedo area, it’s a wonderful place for couples, families, and friends looking to relax, reconnect, and enjoy a peaceful waterfront escape—yet it’s still conveniently located within reach of New York City and many of the Hudson Valley’s attractions
