Fall Foliage Heaven: Hudson River's Stunning Views Offers Peace & Small Events
The commanding view, access to water, trails that are flat or hilly, wrap-around porch, romantic/practical second and third floor rooms and inground pool offers a place for each part of the day to relax, meditate and absorb Mother Nature at her finest. Whether summer with its long days around the pool or lingering on the back porch or Autumn with its magnificent colors, this home and estate seem to settle you in like a mom tucking in her child. Perfect place for personal peace, remote work or to join family and friends in a convenient location or have a small event. This home is stately and cozy at the same time.
Robert was an amazing host, from meeting us upon arrival and showing us the house to helping with some planning issues he really got us through. The location is about as tranquil as you could ever want. We will be back to celebrate year after year.
The house is secluded and the pool was great. Robert lives nearby and was available for assistance (questions and checking on the pool). He was very generous and even let our kids use the ATVs.
Overall it was a relaxing trip and the view was incredible. We spend most of the time on the screened in porch or in the pool.
This place is outstanding!!! The view was just lovely!!! The house is gorgeous & the pool was wonderful!!! We loved this place. The host was very accommodating. We want to come back.
We had a fabulous stay and loved our time on the porch and by the pool. This a restored historic home with all the modern amenities you might need. We loved marveling at some of the original features of the home. The long range mountain and river views from the porch are stunning and my whole family enjoyed the pool. Do note if your party is large, you will need to be careful to take shorter showers due to the well. Overall, we were happy to have stayed here and had a nice relaxing family holiday.
My wife and I own a hearing aid practice and as an avocation, I am a writer. You can see a bit of our home's view in the YouTube, "Love Goes Viral," written during the pandemic. It is one of a couple thousand songs I've written. I am a local columnist for our papers, an author of several books, I've written screenplays and continue to blog inspirational devotionals usually from the perch in the cupola or seated on the back porch.
The Hudson River is stunning...every moment of every day and in every season. The wildlife treats us like family. The historic home was built by a Brooklyn owner of an ice company at the turn of the century. The gardens, back porch, trails, cupola...it just goes on and on.
The house has a wrap-around porch where you can view sunrises, birds (my wife is their benefactor) and the wildlife that calls our beautiful and peaceful place "home." This is a chill-house if ever there was one. Guests frequently mention its beauty and peace. It is absolutely removed and yet convenient.
