Family-friendly vacation rentals in Livingston Manor

Great place! We had a weekend of hiking planned, but with all the rain, we were glad to have use of all the inside amenities here! Sauna, bbq hut, she-shed, basement game room and comfy living room all left us fully entertained while it poured outside. Would love to come back someday!

We went for a quick weekend getaway with our two dogs and absolutely loved William and Liz’s home, we didn’t want to leave!! I loved the privacy, how peaceful it was, and of course the views! Our dogs enjoyed all the free space to run as well. We unfortunately had a lot of rain when we stayed, causing our tour of howes cavern to be canceled due to flash flooding. We were rescheduled which affected our check out time, but they were so sweet and offered us to check out whenever we liked and even offered us an extra night to stay! (We wish we could have). It was a wonderful weekend getaway and we all can’t wait to go back! :)

Ami’s place was great! Stayed for my birthday and was surprised with a delicious tres leche cake upon my arrival! The view was incredible, amenities were amazing, overall it was everything I hoped for and more. Thanks Ami!

We had a wonderful time at this place for our mini moon. It was relaxing, beautifully decorated, well stocked with everything you need! The hosts were very responsive. We would stay here again in a heartbeat! For anyone coming from NYC we stoped at Pho Tibet in New Paltz for lunch on the way home and the food was amazing!

This A-frame escape was exactly what I needed — the perfect break from the city. The place is beautifully designed, cozy, and filled with thoughtful touches. The jacuzzi was absolutely incredible, especially under the stars at night, and the A-frame structure made the whole stay feel like a peaceful retreat.

This was our second stay with Joe and Amy hosting us and it was lovely yet again! They are extremely friendly and responsive. The place is serene and gorgeous. We absolutely adore the chickens and thoroughly enjoyed the fishing spot they told us about. It’s a beautiful place to unwind and relax away from city life. We plan to return again!

We had a nice time staying. It has a Well stocked kitchen. It is near to grocery and shopping in Stone Ridge. It has Great fireflies at night and a good view of the sunset.

Choosing to stay in Porter's container cabin was the best decision we could have made for our vacation. It was so peaceful and relaxing. We had daily visits from a beautiful deer, and countless butterflies. We chose to use this time to unplug, and really connect with each other, and we could not have chosen a better place to spend our time. We've missed the view from the front door every day since we've left, and we're already planning to come back next year. Thank you so much for having us.

Another great stay at Alex’s place, we’ll stay again if we’re back in the area!

Jen & Caroline’s place was exactly as described and just what we needed for a Catskills getaway. We even got to see a hometown Saint Patrick’s day parade that Jen and Caroline recommended - and allowed us to check out a little late so we could attend. So sweet. Would recommend for your Catskills vacation.

We had an amazing stay at the Georgie cottage! Andrew provided lots of great recommendations for restaurants and things to do in the area and the cottage was cute and peaceful. The kitchen was well stocked and the cottage was well-insulated and surprisingly cozy at night! We would love to stay here again

Gail's place is the perfect spot for a peaceful getaway to the Oneonta area! There are so many thoughtful touches and amenities, including a fully stocked kitchen. The decor is fun and feels like a home, and the beds are comfortable. We found the location to be a great mix of quiet and private while being within a few minutes of restaurants, a gas station and grocery store. I would highly recommend Gail's home and I'd stay there again when visiting the area!

We had such a lovely weekend staying in this cozy cabin. The views of the river and ridge from the yard were beautiful and calming. We were able to have a late check out with ease! Definitely will be back to stay again!

The perfect spot to be nurtured by nature! The sweetest cabin had everything we could need and gave us the ability to unplug, relax and rejuvenate. Loved being able to go hiking and just enjoy being outside.. surrounded by gorgeous nature. The babbling brook was so soothing. Honestly, just a perfect spot to enJOY!

Peaceful and private! Situated on a dead end lane Patrick’s place had plenty to do outside - exploring the stream, near by waterfalls, local parks and attractions. Lake Superior State park and the Toronto Reservoir were great spots for swimming and exploring. The house itself was clean, comfortable and well stocked with all necessities. The yard provided a great space for pets and kids to play in addition to exploring the various seating areas and fire pits on the property. There were also many wildlife visitors from deer to fox. We will definitely consider staying again!

We spent the weekend in the area and Tim’s place was fantastic. It’s loaded with charm, comfortable and very well appointed and stocked (right down to treats for the dog). The location is beautiful and the views are amazing. Can’t wait to return!

Cute house, open concept first floor was great for a weekend with our girlfriends! Hava was very responsive and kind!

This beautiful property has a special place in our hearts. We stayed in the A frame during COVID and we always wanted to come back. This time we stayed in the main house and it was phenomenal. Wish the weather was better for us to use the pool, but next time! It well worth the price. Only an hr from the city and it feels like a full vacation. Wonderful way to lose time time for a few days. We will be back!

Loved this little studio! If you’re doing anything at Mohonk preserve (we did Rock the Ridge), it’s minutes away from Testimonial Gateway and Ulster County Fairground. New Paltz is just down the road with stores, cafes, and more. The apartment is cozy but functional and the kitchen is setup well. Perfect for 2 people, couple or friends. Bonus — I rented an EV and was stressing about getting it charged but Franky offered to let me charge it overnight, which was a life saver!

We truly enjoyed our stay at Wilderkill Barn. Maria Cristina and William were exceptional hosts—warm, attentive, and genuinely committed to making our visit special. They went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The home was a haven, with a hot tub, sauna, pool, fire pit, pool table, and immersive sound and movie systems—all of which made our stay delightful despite the cold, dreary May weather. We can't thank them enough. ***That said, we feel it's necessary to address a serious issue with Airbnb itself that arose while booking this property, unrelated to the property itself. An unexpected tax was added after booking, and Airbnb has yet to provide a clear explanation. After years of loyalty, we were disappointed by their evasive and unhelpful customer support. This experience has made us reconsider using the platform in the future. We urge potential users to scrutinize all fees carefully and be aware that Airbnb’s support may be difficult to navigate if problems arise.***

Three friends met at this beautiful carriage house with the feel of a French chalet! We stayed two nights with varied weather conditions. The house, grounds and location was perfect. Hot tub was used and so relaxing. The surroundings were beautiful and peaceful. The host, Diane was very helpful and friendly. What host makes scones each morning and delivers them warm?! Visited the Ashokan Reservoir trail, Opus 40, and Woodstock. Recommend this home highly. You won’t be disappointed!

This comfortable, cozy, magical piece of Catskill paradise was the perfect place to gather to mourn the loss of my father and make some new family memories for a lifetime. Photography is a hobby of mine and the picturesque landscape allowed me to get lost in my passion. We cooked all our meals together in the well-appointed kitchen, challenged each other in the PacMan arcade game and cuddled up together to watch the stars shine and a movie on the comfy couch. We took long walks and met two local farm horses grazing freely in the local fields. The wonderful host was very accommodating and fast to respond. We loved her thorough recommendations for local dining, fun activities and nearby shopping. Book this cabin in the Catskills! You will not be disappointed! We will be back! ". . . there are deeper gorges, greater streams and higher mountains but in no other place is the combination so blended into a harmony so perfect as to form such tempting bits for the camera or the brush.”

We loved this cute studio cabin at the end of a quiet lane in the woods. The host was accommodating and left a welcome basket with tea & muffins for our arrival. The whole unit was clean and well maintained with basic equipment for cooking. We enjoyed sitting on the veranda watching the wildlife. Convenient location for Woodstock for coffee and food, & Ashokan reservoir for walking and cycling. There were a few potholes on the access road to the property which deer use to drink from (☺️). We loved that the cabin was bug free and did not have any trace of bug spray! (We get very bad reactions to that stuff). Thank you for hosting & being respive. Recommend for a weekend 👍🏼

Richard and Sheila were wonderful hosts, and we very much enjoyed our stay at their cabin. After receiving a very warm welcome, we enterer a modern but cozy cabin. We especially loved the view of the creek from the bedroom, in addition to the several spots to sit outdoors. The kitchen and outdoor grill were very functional. Richard and Sheila were always responsive and attentive to our needs during our stay, and managed to make our stay unforgettable despite the rainy start and cooler weather. We cannot wait to return!
