Gorgeous Getaway

About this property

Gorgeous Getaway sits on a wooded property in Garrison, and the pool comes up more than any other feature guests mention. Groups describe lounging by it, grilling beside it, and gathering there for birthdays and family trips, with several noting how landscaped and private the surrounding yard feels. The hot tub and sauna are named almost as often, frequently praised as the reason a chilly or rainy weekend still felt like a break.

The kitchen is the second most mentioned feature. Guests repeatedly call it fully stocked, spacious enough for two families cooking at once, and a highlight for group meals and private chefs alike. The wood burning fireplace in the living room gets its own steady stream of mentions, especially from guests who stayed in colder months and gathered around it.

Host responsiveness is the theme guests raise most after the pool. Many describe quick replies, help arriving fast when something needed attention, and a host who checked in without being asked. This pattern holds across small couples' trips and larger groups of ten or more.

The 1910 farmhouse itself reads as full of character rather than generic, with guests calling out comfortable beds, a homey feel, and a layout that lets a big group spread out. Several reviews mention the short drive or walk to Cold Spring and the walk to the Garrison train station, useful for a weekend that mixes house time with a trip into town.

A handful of stays ran into pool debris, a slow-to-heat sauna, or an appliance issue, but these show up far less often than the praise for the grounds, the kitchen, and the host's attentiveness.
