Now back on VRBO, this lovely art-filled southern Columbia county home combines rustic charm (“log cabin”) with modern style and a spacious 2300 SF interior with a large deck and great mountain view (partially obscured by trees in summer). Located on a quiet (except for the birds, frogs and crickets) dead end road on 3.5 acres of nature, yet near Rhinebeck, Tívoli, Bard College and Hudson with so much to explore.

And it’s only 2 hours from Manhattan!

The house is on a dead end street with only two other houses, fairly spread out. It would be extremely quiet if it weren't for the birds, the frogs and the crickets. It's a couple of miles east of the Hudson river.

Germantown has just a few businesses - a good restaurant, a country market with regular and specialty food items and a deli, a wine store, a flower shop and a couple of gas stations. There are more restaurant choices 10 minutes away in Tivoli.

Bard music festival and other performing arts events nearby in the summer. Apple picking in the fall. Berry picking in spring and summer. Historic Kingston. Mansion tours. Dutchess fair grounds. Hiking and biking. Many restaurants, tasting at breweries and distilleries. 40 min to Tanglewood.

This is my weekend house, but I am living out of the area now so I am renting it out to help make ends meet. It is much nicer in terms of furnishings, decor and kitchen and bath amenities than most rentals. You will find it very comfortable!
