Streamside Cottage

About this property

Streamside Cottage sits on four wooded acres in Kerhonkson, and seclusion is the theme guests raise most. They describe feeling tucked away with no visible neighbors, the woods pressing close on all sides, and a quiet that several call rare and restorative. A private road and long driveway reinforce that sense of distance from everything else.

The second most mentioned detail is the stream running behind the house. Guests write about listening to it from the deck, drinking coffee within earshot of it, and falling asleep to the sound through a cracked window. It runs alongside a fire pit and outdoor furniture, and several reviews single out mornings spent there watching deer.

Host responsiveness comes up almost as often. Guests describe clear directions, quick answers to questions, and a smooth check-in process using the door code. Several also mention returning guests, a sign of the same experience holding up over repeat stays.

Inside, the kitchen draws steady praise for being stocked with cooking basics, spices, and coffee, letting guests prepare meals without much need to leave. The gas fireplace anchors the living room and shows up often as a favorite spot, especially in colder months. The mid century decor and stone fireplace give the main floor real character, while the loft desk upstairs suits remote work.

A few reviews flag the narrow spiral staircase to the second floor bedroom, useful to know since the only bathroom is on the main level. The home sleeps four and suits a couple or a small group looking to disconnect near Minnewaska and several nearby hiking trails.
