About this house rental

Our modern, light-filled house is like a cabin in the woods, but bigger, with plenty of space and lofty ceilings. The house is located on a private gravel road in a lush, quiet wooded setting, and has a hot tub. There are several stone walls through the property -- great for exploring.

The house has an open floor plan with wood floors throughout. There is a large kitchen and dining area with high ceilings and exposed beams adjoining a bright, spacious living room equipped with a wood burning stove, HDTV, record player and lots of vinyl. Leading from the living room is a large deck with a picnic table, surrounded by trees providing ample shade, perfect for outdoor dining. There is also a grill and a vegetable garden next to the deck.

The house has skylights throughout, 2 bathrooms and 4 bedrooms. The master bedroom has a queen-sized bed and en suite bathroom with a very large claw foot tub and walls of local pine; there is also a private deck attached to this bedroom. Another bedroom has a queen-sized bed with a wood burning stove and a deck as well. The third bedroom has a queen bed and bunk bed and is equipped with toys and games for the kids.The smallest bedroom has a full sized bed. The house is perfect for a large group of people.

Amenities include wifi, large screen TV, Netflix, laundry room, dish washer, microwave, compost, wood burning stoves, a fire pit and a rope swing.

The house is located west of the Berkshire Mountains in Massachusetts and east of the Catskill Mountains, just across the Hudson River. It's a 2 hour drive from Manhattan, north up the scenic Taconic Parkway and one hour south of Albany International Airport. The house is less than 10 miles from Hudson which hosts a farmer's market on Saturday; there are over 75 antique shops to discover, galleries, music venues and many boutiques and renowned restaurants. Fall is a great time to come during the change of colors, with lots of pick-your-own orchards to choose from. In the warmer months there are dairy farms and fruit stands, berry picking, plus trails and waterfalls and swim holes including the beautiful Lake Taghkanic beach, just a ten minute drive from the house.

Catamount Ski Area is a 20 minutes drive and Great Barrington, MA is 30 minutes away. Other places worth seeing are Tanglewood, Chatham, Bash Bish Falls, and the Art Omi Outdoor Sculpture Garden.

Lovely House Tucked Away in the Woods

My husband and I loved our stay here. The house is charming, comfortable and so well equipped. The aesthetic is modern yet vintage, and the house is filled with a fantastic collection of mid-century finds and beautiful artwork. Everything is well organized, and the owner is very responsive and lovely to deal with. We would definitely come back!

Gorgeous getaway in the woods

This is a modern and gorgeous house with lots of light and space. We especially loved the large and well equipped kitchen (with fresh herbs on the outside deck) and the fantastic record collection! And to have beautiful woods with lots of birds singing, cute chipmunks and a large swing right on your doorstep is just wonderful! Myryah is a fantastic host - so easy to communicate with before and throughout our stay. She even mailed my daughter the charger she unfortunately left in the house. We highly recommend this place and would love to come back some other time when we need a break from the city.

family bliss!

Our stay was such a lovely experience from start to finish. Our hosts were clear, kind and generous. The home had everything that we needed to cook our meals, relax by the fire and listen to a great array of records. The kids had a ton of fun using the sleds provided and even with the super cold temps, were able to stay outside, totally entertained, for hours! We were close to two separate ski resorts - Catamount and Butternut. We chose to ski one day and tube another. I can't recommend this place enough. Thank you so much!

What a great find
What a great find
We had a terrific weekend in this well equipped and thoughtfully designed home in the woods. It was perfect for our family - from the light filled living space to the master with claw foot tub to the kids room complete with drum set. We loved the location- peaceful, yet only 20 min to the vibrant town of Hudson and 10-15 min to Copake lake and Lake Taghkanic State Park. Communication was easy and so was settling in- the hard part was leaving.

Our family of four enjoyed spending our last week of summer in Myryahs beautiful home. The house offered everything we could need--space, light, and an amazing setting in the woods, thoughtfully appointed with clean, modern design throughout. Our kids loved the bunk beds, swing, and great collection of books, while we grownups enjoyed the record collection, the well-appointed kitchen, and feeling the late summer breeze from any of the three decks!It was the perfect spot from which to explore the Hudson Valley, and we had a great time dining out in Hudson, biking on the Harlem Valley Rail Trail through Taconic State Park, checking out the incredible sculptures at Art Omi in Ghent, and even spending a day at the Columbia County Fair. Myryah was an attentive hostess from afar, checking in and being available to answer questions. Thanks so much for sharing your home with us!
