Log Cabin On A Lake With Private Dock & Beach! One Hour from NYC!
About this cabin rental
Located in Connecticut, this lovely cabin for $378 per night is a fantastic option for your next vacation. Quintessential Hudson Valley, just over an hour north of NYC, charming and peaceful renovated-1950s cabin with private lake dock and beach on beautiful Lake Dutchess. This non-motorboat, quiet, peaceful private lake is the perfect setting for the Fall foliage, Winter snowscapes, Spring blooms, and Summer swimming. Take a canoe ride (provided), fish (PLENTY of bass), a summer dip, or sled in the winter. Immersed in the woods, this cozy log cabin is a perfect mix of rural/rustic charm and updated, modern appeal. Gut-renovated in early 2015, the cabin has an open living room with skylights, huge windows to the lake, and a retro fireplace. Three small bedrooms branch off the living room, two rooms with a queen-size bed each, and one with a bunk bed (kids only). One updated, white bathroom with shower. The kitchen comes fully equipped with new appliances and opens up to the dining room, which has a wall of windows to the lake. From there, you can exit onto the top deck of the house for the grill or relax on the patio furniture, or the porch swing on the lower deck. The house is built on a huge rock which is also great to lay on during the summers, or head down to the lake dock (just a few footsteps away), and hang out there, take a swim, or grab the canoe or paddle board. Additional amenities provided include AC/Heating system, Wireless WiFi, fishing poles, canoe, kayak, paddleboard (summer) , firelogs (winter), high thread-count sheets, cotton towels, Beekman 1802 Toiletries, outdoor gas grill, washer/dryer, Apple TV with streaming accounts, and most kitchen needs. The location of the house is perfect. Though quietly nestled in the woods surrounded by nature, it is a mile or two from Interstate-84 which takes you straight to Beacon, Cold Spring, or Kent, CT in 20 minutes. Metro North's Southeast station on the Harlem Line is 10 minutes away so a commute to NYC is very convenient for guests who need to come and go. The area attractions include great hiking at Wonder Lake, Nuclear Lake (part of the iconic Appalachian Trail), Beacon Reservoir, and Breakneck Ridge (named by Newsweek as one of the 10 Best Hiking Trails in the Country). And great biking on the state-wide Empire Trail, minutes from the cabin! We are centrally located to some quintessential Hudson Valley towns. Beacon, right on the Hudson River with amazing shops and restaurants, is home to the world-renowned DIA Art Museum. Other nearby Hudson Valley towns worthy of a visit include Cold Spring, Pawling, and Kent (CT). There is also Splashdown Beach, a water park 15 minutes away. During the winter, besides the frozen lake and beautiful snow-covered surroundings, there is Thunder Ridge Ski Resort 10 minutes away. The Autumn is amazing with the colorful fall foliage every which way and festivals abound. Go apple-picking at the beautiful Fishkill Farms, only ten minutes away. And of course Spring starts us into summer with the snow melting and the leaves and flowers blooming! We rent by the week only in July and August, Saturday to Saturday. Please note, we do not rent to anyone under the age of 30, and have a 4 adult maximum (6 person max, if at least two children are included), as the bunk beds are for children only. This is a peaceful lake community. PARTIES/LOUD GATHERINGS WILL NOT BE TOLERATED. If you and your guests tend to be on the louder, more partying side, this is NOT the house/lake for you. IMPORTANT!!! During the Winter and early Spring months, four-wheel/all-wheel drive is highly recommended to access the cabin, especially if there is snow or ice in the forecast. You can easily get stuck on the final road to the cabin, otherwise.

Had a wonderful 3 days at the cabin. Beautiful, clean and comfortable home in a peaceful and serene setting. We spent our mornings visiting nearby towns of Beacon, Kent and Cold Spring and afternoons kayaking and swimming in the lake. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a break from the hustle and bustle and seeking some serenity!

This cabin is amazing! We really enjoyed how quiet it was and how it was just steps from the lake, where we enjoyed fishing (10 bass caught!), swimming, and canoeing. Tons of great local hiking and restaurants and Jason was the perfect host. Highly recommend. We’ll certainly be back!

This lakeside retreat is a peaceful, serene sanctuary.
We absolutely loved our time here. The views are so gorgeous and the lake was incredible for swimming and kayaking.
We will definitely stay here again. Jason was an awesome host also. So easy to deal with and left us lots of helpful tips for our stay.

The house was beautiful, incredible views of the lake from anywhere in the main living area. Bedrooms are small, but truly didn't matter to us. We were unlucky with the weather, but even with the rain I wish we could have stayed another week! Absolutely wonderful - and the hosts were kind and communicative. WILL stay again.

Cabin was great for a quick weekend getaway. Only an hour away but felt like we were more removed from the normal day to day. Despite cold rainy weather we had a great time, playing cards and puzzles by the fire and grilling a fantastic dinner. The canoe was a fun morning ride once the rain stopped. I’d imagine summer time is even nicer with the dock. It was also great to bring our pup!

We loved our stay and would absolutely rent this place again. The cabin was smaller than we expected (specifically the bedrooms), but the living space was cozy, cute and the view out the windows was amazing. We saw a large blue heron every morning near the dock and the husbands caught a couple fish from the canoe. We missed having a real fire, but the Dura log in the fireplace still scratched that itch. Would be nice to have a fire pit outside. Definitely check yourself for ticks if doing a lot of hiking around the area!

My family had an incredible time at this cozy cottage. The setting is unbeatable--in a quiet nook on a lovely lake, close to several great Hudson Valley towns. They provided everything we needed for both the cottage and the lake (canoeing! dog towels!), plus the place is so cute and comfortable. There's great art on the walls and a packed bookshelf full of delights. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

This house was very well put together and equipped. We did not have to worry about bringing a thing with us which was very relaxing. Jason was very helpful and able to answer all of my questions while staying. This is the perfect place for a couple to get away for a weekend.

Tucked away on a beautiful lake, this cabin is a gem. It is tiny but has everything you could need- comfortable beds, great shower, easy kitchen and beautiful views of the lake. Kayaking and canoeing on this quiet lake with the swans. So lovely!

Such a special place
The cabin was wonderful - clean with unexpected amenities (high end toiletries and super comfortable bedding) quiet and in a beautiful location. The lake is visible from almost everywhere in the cabin. We all enjoyed the paddleboard and kayak and our sons used the Empire State Trail for biking and running nearly every day. The host is responsive and so helpful. A truly great vacation!

Charming Lake Getaway
Jason's place is exactly as pictured, but even the great photos can't convey just how nice the cabin is, and how "in the woods" it feels. The huge rocks and canopy of trees really set the stage for serious relaxation. If you can't "get away from it all" here, you probably can't do it anywhere. :)

We fell in love with this little cabin the moment we stepped through the door. The setting is perfect--just the right combo of secluded woods and gorgeous lakefront. The cabin is charming with all the amenities needed. It's rustic, but Very clean and well kept. When in the cabin or on the upper deck, you feel like you are in a treehouse--big windows let the outside in. Just love it!

Charming, cozy and well appointed log cabin with a terrific fireplace and very comfortable beds. Stayed the day of a big snow storm so we didn't get to enjoy the outdoors - but it was a perfect, gorgeous view to the world beyond the windows and comforting fire. We loved our stay and hope to return! Thank you so much for hosting us! - The Higgins Family
