Very nice B&B: comfortable and elegantly decorated. Good breakfast. Nice outdoor leisure areas. Free parking on site. Somewhat isolated: no restaurants within walking distance and none on property. Fifteen to twenty minute drive to nearest. Hard to see driveway entrance at night. Rooms have half baths (toilet & sink) but second floor rooms share one shower located in hallway, so a bathrobe desirable and some time planning necessary to avoid conflicting with other guests.

Every year we do a Halloween event, and always try to find a place to stay near the haunt. This year we scored big. Found this fantastic B&B, right across the street from the event site. I couldn't believe our luck. The house welcomes you to relax; the decor is nice with a sense of elegance. The room we booked was the Travelers room, as we are travelers. Comfy bed and linens, and nicely decorated with objects from around the world. Our host Jean was the nicest B&B owner we have ever met. She went out of her way to make sure we had everything we needed. I was up early and she made me coffee, so that I could sit outside and have a cigarette on the back patio. I found that to be a real treat for me, as many place don’t even allow you to smoke on the premises any more. Once my finance came down, Jean made us a lovely home cooked breakfast. Absolutely delicious. I would recommend this B&B and Jean to any one that is traveling through this area of NY State.…

From the spacious, spotlessly clean rooms to the conversation-inducing common area to the gourmet 3 course breakfasts, it would be hard to find a more amazing B & B. On top of the exquisite accomodations, Jean is such a welcoming hostess. Her warmth creates a vibe throughout the house and greatly adds to the pleasure of a stay. Even though our days were almost all rainy & it was too chilly to enjoy the side porch, our stay was filled with sunshine in thanks to Jean & her beautifully decorated home. Thanks, Jean!

Jean, the proprietor, could not be more welcoming or friendlier. The B&B is clean, beautifully appointed, and Jean’s breakfasts are fantastic. Centrally and conveniently located between and among a host of the Hudson Valley’s best sites, we will definitely book the VacationHouse again. Howie and Carey

Traveled to New York recently with a friend, who had a wedding to attend and I just tagged along for the ride. First off the outside appearance of the house is beautiful. The porch areas to sit around and talk with friends are very comfortable and relaxing. The bedroom was very clean & I really liked how it was decorated. The bed was super comfortable. Jean always made sure we had everything we needed to be comfortable. The bathroom was supplied with shampoo, conditioner & body soap along with face wipes and Q-tips (all things we forget on vacations). Jean was very helpful when it came to trying to find things to do while visiting this beautiful town. Now, let me tell you Jean's cooking is something you have to try in your lifetime. the breakfasts she made were SPECTACULAR, and she always made sure you had enough. The cooking alone was worth the drive from Ohio to New York. Thank you so much Jean for your hospitality & beleive me when I say there is no way any other bed and breakfast will live up to the expectations that you set!:)…

Hi Jessica! Thank you so much for the kind words. Feeding people makes me happy. :) Having such wonderful people for breakfast makes me happier. I am so glad you enjoyed. Stop back in fall to go to the Headless Horseman Haunted House across the street. Ha! A bit far to go. :) Have a grand rest of your summer!

I decided to book a bed and breakfast while in town for a wedding in late July 2019. We weren’t really sure what to expect because we haven’t stayed at a bed and breakfast in a long, long time. We got there and immediately was impressed. Everything was so clean and organized and just conveniently placed. Bed was AMAZING. The shared bathroom with the shower worried me, but it was never a problem! She had towels, washcloths, shampoo, conditioner, and everything you could need for an over night stay. Jean was such an awesome host and always had our best interests in mind. Helped us figure out what to do for the day and where the best spots to eat were. And thank god we did! Okay. Now it is time to talk about her breakfasts. I will try to describe in words, but I may struggle a bit. If you want a typical waffle or muffin, this is not your place. Her breakfasts were all so strategically thought out and HOMEMADE. I don’t want to give away too much but this woman can cook a mean breakfast! If we are ever in town or even close to town, we will be back again :)…

I cannot thank God enough for the amazing people I get to meet as they pass through the Hudson Valley. The both of your were so Awesome so, nice.

This establishment is relatively new, but off to a great start and will surely be a destination for many in the future. Jean is an amazing host who provides a quality stay, delicious breakfasts and all of the information that you need. We were lucky enough to see all of the rooms as we were there for three nights and peaked in during housekeeping times in between guest stays. All of the rooms are beautifully appointed and recently renovated. There is a nice back patio and side porch where you can enjoy your down time and maybe share a libation. Jean makes amazingly delicious and generous breakfasts every morning. You can visit many of the small towns in the area using this establishment as a base camp. We visited Kingston, Saugerties, Rhinebeck, Rhinecliff, Woodstock and Hudson. We even took in a concert at Bethel Woods one of the nights. Ample parking is available. Watch for the turn off or the road as it comes up quickly. A truly enjoyable stay and we are certain to return in the future.…
