Bungalow Hudson - steps from Warren w/ huge patio!
Lovely place, did what it said on the tin! Walkable to the main parts of Hudson. Very comfortable. Beautifully equipped.

CoZenova Cottage - Seasonally Decorated
Cozy spot by small NY lake. Clean and comfortable. Walkable neighborhood and a quick drive to Redhook and Rhinebeck. Nice country. Didn’t get to the lake during our brief stay. Small but deep with a nice public beach.

Taconic Hideaway – Fireplace, Fire Pit & Swimming
We had a lovely stay at Julia and Javi’s. Great place for 5 of us to sleep comfortably. Connected kitchen, dining and living rooms made for very communal feel which was great. Would stay again!

Fiddlehead Lodge: Upstate NY Stay near Berkshires
Joe’s place was a great place for us to gather from three different states to celebrate a birthday. It’s a beautiful property. Top notch linens, great kitchen, comfy beds, and a very comfortable living space. Also, the grassy area in back is surrounded by bird houses with some truly spectacular birds. We enjoyed our stay. Joe was incredibly responsive and helpful.

Lake house, 700 ft waterfront - from every room
We had an amazing stay at this beautiful lakefront house! The location is peaceful and scenic—waking up to the view of the water each morning was truly special. The house was spotless, well-equipped, and cozy, with everything we needed for a relaxing and comfortable stay. We especially loved spending time on the deck and enjoying the calm of the lake. The host was friendly, responsive, and made check-in a breeze. We would absolutely come back and highly recommend this gem to anyone looking for a quiet escape in nature!

Quiet Lakeside Cabin on Private Road
The location was perfect—peaceful and quiet at night. The bed was comfortable, the amenities were thoughtful, and I appreciated the little touches like extra towels. Would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable and comfortable place to stay!

Elegant Year-Round Lakeside Retreat with AC
For our fourth stay at Katie and Greg's, we were just as satisfied as the first x3 trips! And we're already planning our 5th! Truly a gem of a home and wonderful hosts. Highly recommend!

Cozy Lakeside Retreat
This is a great spot, on a dead end street. Very peaceful and a wonderful open space. About 25-30 minutes south of Albany/Troy. Close to a shopping area in Valatie, NY (about 2 miles.) Maura is a fantastic host, who quickly helped with any questions or needs. I highly recommend this house to anyone looking for a serene getaway.

WELCOME TO THE COUNTRY - FOX DEN LAKEFRONT STUDIO
Jeanne’s place was just incredible. The lakefront views, easy access, and water toys make it a fabulous get-away vacation. The patio is delightful with lights, comfortable seating, fan, log burning fire, lounge chairs, and bird feeder that is so fun to watch. The grounds have gorgeous flowers, beautifully maintained. The kitchen is among the best provisioned we have experienced (e.g., blender, gourmet cooking utensils) and Jeanne provides so many extra’s—e.g., coffee, spices, maple syrup, pancake mix. . Although the space is a studio it is so well designed for storage and flexible use that it feels large and comfortable. High quality linens, bath and lake towels are convenient. Jeanne and Jim were very accessible for local recommendations.. We felt like guests in a concierge hotel but with private, relaxing accommodations. This is our second visit and we hope to come back frequently. Highest recommendation for Jeanne’s place.

The Pink House
Robin and Stan were terrific hosts, they were very proactive with communication and super accommodating during our entire stay. The house was absolutely lovely and so easy to get to from the main part of town. Robin also has the cutest store located just down the street that is a must visit! Overall 10/10 stay!

Writer's retreat: study, books, fireplace (Ecobnb)
The location and space were great! I worked remotely during most of my stay and was very comfortable with my set up. The dining table was a perfect desk, with good lighting and wifi! Slept well due to it being so quiet at night. A positive experience overall.

Summit Lake Yacht Club | Starboard
This place was amazing, exactly like the photos. Whatever cleaning service they use is pristine, it felt like everything was brand new out of the box, not even a fuzz or spec in the bathroom or kitchen. I really appreciated that. The backyard is huge, and a nice unexpected surprise. It’s extremely private and dark at night so recommend getting there during daylight. Hudson is less than 20 mins away and there are great little spots like local 111 in the neighborhood. Had a lot of cooking dishware, also very appreciated. Over all absolutely loved my stay and will absolutely be booking again!

Zen River Studio
We loved the studio and felt right at home It was a perfect place to stay while exploring the Berkshires, close to both outdoor activities and the offerings of the town. We especially appreciated the beautiful view from the studio which enhanced rest and relaxation. Jill and Steve were great hosts. Highly recommend.

Hip Warren Street Apartment
We had a wonderful stay at David’s place. The bed was comfortable, amenities were great, and the location was unbeatable. David was a very responsive and proactive host. We left a small item behind and he even went out of his way to mail it back to us. Overall 100/10 recommend!

3 Bedrooms and a Queechy Lake
Wife, me and two teenage "kids" staied at Steves between Christmas and New Years. The location is amazing and the views from the living room were beautiful. So much sunlight come through the large windows that one could sunbath indoors. The two rooms downstairs were large and well equipped. Kitchen fully functional and well proportionate bathroom. The mudroom downstairs was great to take off our heavier winter gear and shoes. Did I mention the heated floors? Would recommend to any family looking for a quiet place to rechange. Should be equally nice in Summer too.

Summit Lake Yacht Club | Port
A wonderful spot if you are traveling with a pup and looking for a convenient spot to explore Columbia county. I travel upstate a lot and this Airbnb is one of the nicer ones I have visited. The space was absolutely spotless!! Great dining space, and all the kitchen basics. The star of the show is definitely the fenced in yard. My dog was a huge fan!! The tub in the bathroom is also a nice amenity. Only things to consider, Phimont is a still a town in transition. Not somewhere I enjoy spending time. But there are tons of things nearby. Also, you do hear some noise from neighbors. Nothing that diminished our stay. I really appreciated how proactive and responsive Michelle and Jacopo were. Overall I would definitely recommend!

Lakefront Retreat on Robinson Pond
The lake house is truly gorgeous, especially with the fall foliage. We fell in love with the location and plan to be back soon.

Cozy Catskill Cottage
Great cozy Catskill house with close access to highway. Beautiful neighborhood with lots of fun stuff to do around the Catskill region. Loved the old cozy home vibe of the place with nice carpets and rugs.

Waterlily Lakehouse - Modern+Waterfront+Retreat
My friends and I loved our weekend getaway at Vivian's lake house. Vivian was a very responsive host and provided clear instructions that made our stay seamless. The space was super clean, modern, and easily accommodated all 8 of us. The highlight of our trip was spending time on the lake with the provided kayaks and paddle boards. We enjoyed ending the day by grilling and sitting around the fire pit. We wish we had stayed longer!

Kinderhook Lakefront Retreat-private, kayaks, ac
Amazing place. Lisa & Steve's cottage made for an amazing weekend. We had pretty bad weather but it was still a great weekend. The lake is so peaceful and the set up of the cottage is perfect. The cottage has everything you need, as well as everything you didnt know you needed! We'll definitely be back. Ate at The Aviary, The Smokehouse & The Maker (Hudson) - all very different but incredible.

Lake Front Cottage with Sun Soaked Terraces
It's hard to beat a place like this if you are looking for a peaceful, quiet, and comfortable stay. The lakefront backyard with kayaks, fireplace, heated porch with swing, and amenities to meet any basic need, made this a wonderful base for our group of four adults, a child, and furry friend to explore the area. It's a beautiful country/lake side escape a short drive from a number of villages and towns providing great eats, good shopping, and sightseeing. Highly recommend.

Pondmodern: Renovated Midcentury Ranch
Book this space! All weekend, I found myself saying out loud to my family, “This house is perfect.” It truly is. Meredith’s home fit 5 people and our dog and still felt spacious. We loved the open layout, it made family time feel easy and natural. It was spotless, and so cozy. The outdoor space was so welcome, as was the wood burning oven to add a special touch on a rainy weekend. We plan on returning this winter as well. Thank you!

The Cabbage ~ A place to create/relax/restore.
Had a great stay at the cabbage! Everything is so cozy and clean. Would highly recommend using the amenity card to check out Sleepy Hollow Lake at sunset— gorgeous views!

Hudson Lake Resort: MV Buren Cottage III
Beautiful property right on the lake. The cabin was very clean and equipped with everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. Lots to do in the area, hiking, food, bars. We will be back :)
