Top Floor 2BR - Just Renovated!
The apartment was beautiful and exactly as described. It was newly renovated, clean, easy to locate, and in a prime location. We met Graham when we got there. He was outside working on more renovations, and he became a friendly face and helpful resource throughout our stay. The patio was definitely worth it. It was so peaceful and serene to just sit in the hot tub and stare off at the creek and mountains. The less than 10 minute walk to town on the abandoned tracks was so easy, romantic, and fun. This is a great place to stay for couples or families!

Farm-to-Table Retreat on Panther Creek
Eileen’s directions to get in could not have been easier. The place was spacious, quiet , and the bed was very comfortable. The kitchen had everything you would need to cook with and that we did! We came as a last minute trip. The deck out back was great. and use of the grill was a plus, the honor store out back was perfect for our cooking needs. Had some pastries from the cafe on Saturday morning and were delicious. It also was so wonderful to see so many in the community meet there on Saturday mornings, such a wonderful meeting space you have created in a world with anxiety filling news the laughter coming up reassured me there are still strong communities filled with people that care for one another.

Hudson River Beach House
Our time away at Janet's for our anniversary, fun and R&R was just perfect. The Catskill Mountains are just beautiful and emerald green. We enjoyed local events, restaurants as well as traveling to other towns and areas for outdoors enjoyment, meals and a bit of shopping. Lots of diversity of choices abound. We most definitely would like to return and explore even more of the area. The location of Janet's airbnb was a great homebase to traveling around and exploring each day:)

Lakeside Studio on White Lake
What a great little studio for a Birthday get away trip to Bethel Woods concerts, etc. Relaxing on the deck overlooking the lake for coffee in the morning or a nightcap after your days activities. 2 restaurants within a 100 yards, the Tap n Table was excellent with really Friendly staff. Must have breakfast at least once at Bethel Market Cafe, the Best! All this less than 15 minutes in any direction. I would like to come back in the Summer to take advantage of the Lake activities. Wonderful stay!

Waterfront Gem: 1BR w/Private Balcony & Serenity
The location was absolutely stunning! The river in the backyard created a very relaxing atmosphere. The bed was comfortable, and the space was clean. At one point, it rained, and I enjoyed sitting on the patio.

DeMew Townhouse in Historic Kingston
Such a fantastic stay right in the heart of Kingston! This apartment was exactly as described and incredibly clean. Easy to get to everything in and around Kingston. Tara was a responsive host with clear instructions on how to check in/check out.

Cozy 1 bedroom apartment in the Rondout Kingston
Rudi is very responsive and helpful. Nice place to stay for a quiet getaway.

Special Nest w Private Entrance River View Porches
Our stay here in Newburgh was lovely! This place was well-stocked, very very clean, fabulously eclectic, and spectacularly spacious! We loved having two restrooms and being so close to the river and to Hudson Taco!! As the Host mentions, do carefully consider how much you care about “neighbor noise.” While I brought slippers to kindly observe the “no shoes in the house” rule, the tenants above us rudely did not. We couldn’t hear voices, but the heavy footsteps kept us awake until 1 o’clock in the morning on a weeknight and woke us up at 6:30 AM on Saturday morning. The dog scampering around or crying and whining loudly every time it was left alone in the house was also hard to bear despite our bringing ear plugs. We would 100% stay again if Sarah would kindly have us. We’re sure to have more considerate neighbors next time. Thank you for creating such a lovely space at an affordable rate.

The Catskill Getaway • Near Bethel Woods & Hiking
First Stavros was a stellar host. Proactive in communication and always responsive. Very attentive, we had one small interruption with the wifi that he promptly addressed before we even noticed! The house property is absolutely stunning and gorgeous, peaceful, spacious, very beautiful. The house has everything well stocked. Kitchen had plenty. I can't find one thing to comment that isn't positive. We all enjoyed ourselves to the max. The most enjoyable was the three walls full of windows that made the thunderstorms so beautiful to watch in the living room. The little stream in the back so pleasant to sit silently. An incredible house and even more kind, generous and helpful host

Modern Riverside in Orchard, Hot tub and Firepit
Our family had an incredible time at Christie’s “mountain house” (as our kids called it). The short walk to the river was priceless and we enjoyed the fire pit every night. Highly recommended for a peaceful getaway!

Rippleside Retreat - Stay and Relax
We loved it so much that we came back for a second year! Great place to stay, love the location, perfect amount of space inside and outside. So close to great hiking! Sarah is a great host and easy to communicate with! Thanks for letting us come back this year!

Little owl Japanese teahouse: pool is OPEN
The teahouse and surroundings were relaxing and peaceful. We saw groundhogs, deer, and chipmunks from the porch and our 2 dogs loved exploring the field and wandering in the nearby woods. The pool was amazing and warm despite the rain and the natural landscaping couldn’t have been more beautiful. We really enjoyed our stay!

Dutch Touch Woodstock Cottage
This is a gem, a peaceful, private place beside a stream behind the big house. The little house is spacious and I sometimes felt inclined to cook during my week long stay, listening to the stream or to music. The bed is very comfortable and there is an air purifier and filtered water. Tuli, the resident dog in the big house is gentle and affectionate. I felt very much at home and hope to stay again.

Birch Creek Mountain House
We had a wonderful weekend in the Catskills at Jennifer‘s property. I really appreciated how communicative she is as a host. She even allowed us to check in early and was flexible about our checkout which helped given that we were traveling with kids. In addition to this, the house is so well appointed with everything that you can need for a getaway, including the kitchen, furniture throughout the house and a very large backyard for outdoor fun. We would absolutely stay at Jennifer’s place again.

Lake House On 7 Acres w Koi Ponds, Hot Tub, Boats
My husband and I had a wonderful time at Drew’s place. There are so many thoughtful and beautiful details to the house and property! 10/10 I would recommend.

Mountains Views & Private Stream
One of the best stays I’ve ever had! The house is absolutely amazing – beautiful, cozy, tastefully designed, and by far the most well-equipped Airbnb I’ve ever stayed in. Every little detail has been thoughtfully considered, from the fully stocked kitchen to all the extras that make the stay so comfortable. The hosts were incredibly responsive and kind, always available to answer any questions we had. I will definitely be coming back. Highly recommended!

Hiking, fishing,mountain view condo
A beautiful home. Felt comfortable and relaxing. Very well equipped. A nice small outdoor seating area to watch the creek and see wildlife.

Perfect Catskills hiking getaway with fireplace
5 stars, 5 stars, 5 stars!! I would just like to say I’ve stayed in many Air B&Bs before, and this one is by far one of my favorites. The hosts are absolutely amazing. They are proactive in responding and really want you be be comfortable and making sure you have no issues. The price was 100% worth it. I love that they included board games as a part of the space, such a nice touch. The bathrooms and bedrooms were also so clean, and we enjoyed our stay. You can really tell the hosts put a lot of love and care into this place. I can’t say enough good things about them!
