Waterfront retreat near Kingston, NY w/ stunning views, firepit & trails nearby!

Dine on the private, covered veranda as eagles swoop and fish jump across the water. Enjoy the view through floor-to-ceiling glass windows for magical views from bed. Crisp, calm blues, grays, and silvers set the tranquil scene at this modern hideaway. The well-appointed studio is perfectly situated to offer you amazing river views and privacy. It is extremely quiet and convenient to nearby attractions.

The pictures don’t do it justice—you truly have to experience this place in person. Hands down, this is the nicest rental I’ve ever booked—not just because it was spotless, but because it’s truly one of a kind. The views of the wide, peaceful Hudson are absolutely breathtaking (and you're not on the train side, so you're literally right on the water).The beautifully landscaped garden and expansive outdoor space feel like a private sanctuary. With cozy furniture, a firepit, and thoughtful touches everywhere, it’s easy to forget the outside world exists. And while it feels like an escape, you still have all the modern comforts—from strong Wi-Fi to smart technology.If you’re looking for a romantic couples’ getaway that’s all about peace, privacy, and next-level relaxation, this is it. Book it now—before it lands on all the “best of” lists.

Waterfront Retreat says it all

We enjoyed our short stay and would book this property again. If mother nature is on your side, 2 nights is too short of a stay to truly enjoy the view and water amenities. If your party includes someone who enjoys fishing, make sure you bring a rod or you will get the 'sad face' and 'guilt' for denying them the ability to lose lures.

Great place to stay!

I loved our stay. The apartment was beautiful inside and out. It had all the amenities you could possibly need plus extra thoughtful items. The view was spectacular and the access to the main road that leads to all the tourist attractions was so convenient. Our hostest was very helpful and friendly. I would highly recommend this place to friends.
