About this property

Dog friendly private 3-bedroom house bordering Mohonk Preserve

Welcome to this secluded home in New Paltz. This excellent property features 3 bedrooms with 2 queen beds and 1 full bed, perfect for a tranquil getaway in nature while being only 10 minutes from New Paltz village center. The 2 full bathrooms are equipped with all the essentials you need for a peaceful stay.

This property is surrounded by Mohonk preserve. You will feel like you are deep in the woods while only being 10 minutes from New Paltz Village, 10 minutes from Minnewaska State Park, and five minutes from Mohonk visitor center. You can access the Mohonk preserve right from the backyard! You will find the preserve provides tons of outdoor activities such as hiking, mountain biking rock climbing, cross country skiing and more- check their website for details: Mohonkpreserve.org

Each window of the house has a full view of trees, making you feel like you are in a treehouse!

Relax on the back deck each morning while having a cup of tea or coffee and listening to the birds. There is an outdoor dining area where you can enjoy your meals. At night, gather around the propane fireplace on the deck with the café lights on or off to enjoy the stars! You will find it the perfect spot for stargazing.

When you pull in, you will see a dedicated fire pit in the yard to use your leisure, please clean up after yourself. Gather around the fire while discussing the day’s activities of hiking, climbing, mountain biking, and exploring.

Unfortunately, this house is not fit for toddlers. We have two toddlers so we are very aware of how dangerous the staircase is. If you refer to the pictures, you will see there is a large drop off from the first floor into the basement with no railing.

If you are bringing your dog, please keep an eye on them. There is no fence bordering the property. We ask that you clean up after your dog- I think we can all agree that nobody wants to step in poop while exploring the property! We will provide dog bags- please place them in the garbage can in the white shed. Be aware- there is a lot of wildlife around house! Such as bears, fox, raccoons, fisher cats, coyotes, porcupines, snakes, mice, bugs-including ticks, and anything else you can think of!
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned accommodation, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private patio. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a Smart television is provided for your entertainment. Conveniences include a desk and a microwave.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as bike parking.
Guests will find features like onsite parking.

Weekend Upstate

My friends and I had a really nice time at Sheila's property for a spring weekend! When you're sitting in the living room, it really feels like you're in a tree house. It was comfortable for 6 of us (2 in each room) to hang out inside when it was rainy outside. Check in and check out was easy. Location was perfect for our needs (hiking in Minnewaska and Mohonk and roller skating at Skate Time in Accord). I recommend bringing coffee filters if you're planning on making coffee! Also, just a quick warning - the driveway is very steep with a little bit of a drop off on one side.
Stayed 2 nights in May 2025
