Historic guest house of the Cragsmoor Old Inn - this house is our sanctuary from the busy city. Large and full of completely unique charm, this is a great home for a family, couple or individual looking for a comfortable and semi-secluded upstate New York getaway. An hour and a half from the GW Bridge, 45 min from New Paltz and 5min from Minnewaska State Park. We have a wood stove, projector and two big corner sofas for cozy living in the winter. The house feels like a home with brand new kitchen appliances, old antique decor, quirks (eg. hallway shagged carpets), a library and plants everywhere. The house is on a dirt road with hikes nearby and lovely neighbors (including a Buddhist retreat behind our forest).

Winter weather means renters must be confident driving up dirt roads in snow/ice.

About This Lister

We are a couple in our 40s. I work in the music business and Joshua owns an animal behavior consultant company. We like exploring outdoors as much as we enjoy discovering new urban centers full of art and expression. We are both from the Pacific Northwest originally (me: Vancouver / Joshua: Portland) but have both been in New York for many years. We love traveling comfortably and for us that means staying in homes rather than hotels. We have a 6 year old and a 6 month old and will be traveling to Japan to see grandparents this Spring. We have an apartment in BK and this home that we use weekly. We don’t want to list our house on a traditional rental platform because we feel it’s impersonal and doesn’t foster creative bartering for aligned interests.
