Dream House in the Gunks

This cozy House is located on top of the Gunks a few miles away from Minnewaska State Park main entry. House is facing State forest and is a perfect getaway from hectic city life. The space has been carefully redesigned with a lot of details for guests to enjoy the stay. We are very serious about the cleaning/laundry process. Fast internet, complimentary high quality coffee and tea, natural body wash/shampoo. There are good restaurants, wineries, farms and great outdoor activities around.

Space is very cozy and decorated with lots of loving details. Wood burning stove is in the living room. We provide complementary candles and incense. Living room has oversized corner couch which is great for gatherings with friends. There is two patios with additional sitting.

You will have full access to the house, porches and balcony. Parking for two cars right in front of the porch.

You will have the house for yourself, but we will be around the area, and available to text or email or emergency calls. Cell coverage is spotty in our area, but we have a fast (200+mps) wi-fi network.

The house is situated on top of the Shawangunk Ridge, (The Gunks) surrounded by pine forest, the granite rocks and breathtaking views

The friendly hosts are local enthusiasts and are happy to share their knowledge of the best spots and variety of the local activities with the guests of the house.

No public transit, the car is the best way to get here, however taxi cab from New Paltz can take you there to spend a relaxing day or two.

Water:
Our water is safe to drink. We have our own private water well. However, it is possible it might smell like a bit of sulphur though. It is a feature of the water in the Gunks because of the elements in the rock. I also have a functional and well maintained water treatment system in the basement. Finally, there are additional drinking water faucets installed in the kitchen. However, if you absolutely hate taste of any elements in the water please have extra drinking water with you to cook.

Cleaning:
We clean responsibly using Lysol antibacterial products

Biking, hiking, swimming, rock-climbing, skydiving, paragliding, wine tasting, restaurants, art centers, organic farms, harvest (apples, blueberries, peach, raspberry etc.), caving, star gazing and many more
