About this house rental

Be soothed by the sounds of a bubbling stream as you drift off to sleep. Start the day lounging on the deck surrounded by gardens, trees, and mountains. In winter cozy up to the woodstove while watching snowfall in the forest through our big picture windows. Play records from our vinyl collection in the double-height, light-filled, vaulted living space. Reconnect yourself to nature in a contemporary cabin on a stream.

The house is tucked away at the end of a private road with just a few other houses nearby. The town of Phoenicia has shops, a flea market, a farmers market, farm stands, and foodie destinations like the Phoenicia Diner and Woodstock Brewery. Near hiking, skiing, fly fishing, and more. The Menla Mountain Retreat center with Dewa spa is right up the road. Besides dipping your feet in the stream, the house is within walking distance of a few swimming holes.

This is a separate guest house that sits next to our main house.

*Please note - this house is on a secluded private mountain road - 4 wheel drive is preferred for icy winter weather.

We had a wonderful stay. Our hosts were very warm and welcoming and the location was great. It was located close to the ski mountain and town and tucked away next to a stream so the kids and dog could do some exploring. The place was comfy and warm and we enjoyed the wood burning stove. Lots to do and a nice place to relax.

We loved our stay at Serene Retreat! You can definitely tell where they get the name from… from the sounds of the stream behind the house to the wood burning fireplace this home makes you want to cozy up with a good book and a blanket.

Beautiful home that was well appointed, tastefully decorated and fits a family of 5 perfectly. A short drive from NYC that provides a great respite from the busyness of city life. We loved our time at the house, enjoyed the town and shops, and the food was surprisingly amazing — especially from Sweet Susie’s! Alison, the host was very responsive and friendly and we thoroughly enjoyed our time away at their place. Looking forward to coming back again!

We were very happy, enjoyed every minute of it. The nature around the cabin, the house itself. And of course the fact that Alison is a very responsive host.

It was a wonderful trip that we throughly enjoyed. It’s a beautiful home with incredibly serene views and we loved having the stream right in the backyard. We look forward to coming back again.

The House was gorgeous and beautifully located. Easy access to Phoenicia (although a car is very much recommended though not 100%necessary). Everything was laid out and the instructions from the host we’re excellent and extremely helpful. Would highly recommend this property for a short break from the city or a longer journey back to nature.
