Cottage in Rosendale

About this property

The Cottage in Rosendale sits in Saint Remy, a short drive from Rosendale's main street and rail trail. Guests raise the host's responsiveness more than any other theme, describing quick replies to questions, fast fixes during a storm related outage, and flexibility with early check-in or extended stays.

The second most mentioned theme is the interior itself. Reviewers call the two bedroom layout cozy and full of thoughtful, vintage touches, with tasteful decor, comfortable linens, and enough natural light to make the small space feel bright. Several note the home feels more like staying with a family friend than a standard rental.

Location ranks third. Guests mention walking to the rail trail and the Rosendale Trestle, and driving a short distance to Kingston, High Falls, Stone Ridge, and Accord. Many pair a day of hiking or exploring the Hudson Valley with an easy return to a quiet home base.

The back porch and deck come up often as a favorite spot, whether for morning coffee, stargazing, or listening to fireflies and frogs at night. The kitchen draws praise for being well equipped for home cooking, and cleanliness is noted consistently across stays.

A few guests mention the well water has a noticeable sulfur smell, and a couple found the upstairs mattress firm or the bathroom small. None of that seems to diminish the overall sense of a quiet, well kept getaway suited to couples or a small family.
