About this property

Charming Historic Hudson Valley Farmhouse | Close to wineries, hiking, & museums

This is a 3400 sq. ft 3 BR/2.5 bath unit that occupies the entire first floor of the 1873 Marlboro Farmhouse. We have lovingly renovated this property to provide a relaxing space to enjoy the Hudson Valley and all its attractions.

We’re centrally located between Beacon, New Paltz, Kingston, and West Point, and close to many local farms, wineries, and some of the best hiking in the Mid Hudson Valley. If you would like to book both 1st and 2nd floor units together please contact us directly.

The open concept kitchen/dining/living room area boast over 1000 sq ft, vaulted ceiling with exposed beams and large windows. The kitchen is fully stocked with all cooking & baking supplies, spices, and a coffee station. The coffee station includes a regular drip pot and filters which can brew a whole pot or a single cup (No pods - we try and reduce our plastic waste where we can); a grinder, French press, pour over, stove top espresso maker, and of course, a special Farmhouse Blend coffee.

The large mid-century addition is connected to the original portion of the house via a design room filled with artwork and inspiration. The three bedrooms are all located adjacent to a ship-lapped reading room. The bedrooms are all on the main floor and sleep 8 in beds. The front bedroom has two queen beds along with an en suite, the middle bedroom has a queen, and the third bedroom has a king sleigh bed. There is plenty of outdoor space for grilling, picnicking, and entertainment. We have croquet, horseshoes, badminton and plenty of space for other lawn games.

Please Note: This first floor unit is dog friendly with a $50 pet fee. Please include your pet on the reservation so we can provide the proper amenities.

The base nightly rate includes two guests, each additional guest is $35/person/night. We chose this pricing structure to accommodate parties of all sizes.

Larger groups or extended families interested in renting the second floor apartment as well may look up that listing (VRBO listing #1287810). The spaces are completely separate, with their own entrances, kitchens, etc... *If you would like to book both 1st and 2nd floor units together please contact us with requested dates.

Perfect Place

It was what we expected from the VRBO listing. A charming home that suited our specific needs. The host was very cordial and pleasant to deal with. The location was central to the tours and excursions we had planned.

Extremely Spacious & Very Comfortable!

Whitney & John were excellent hosts with excellent communication response time! The property was extremely spacious and very comfortable. We loved the location and found the neighborhood quiet. We reserved both the upstairs listing as well as this one and for our family, it was perfect. I can’t recommend this property highly enough!!

5-Star Farmhouse

Our week at the Farmhouse was 5 Stars in every way. Whitney and Mark are the perfect hosts: available if you need them and they have thought of everything to make your stay equally perfect. The house is convenient to all the Hudson Valley sites and exactly as described. All the rooms were spotlessly clean; beds were super comfortable and each room included carefully chosen "treasures"--from a 1930s typewriter to a collection of vintage photographs to a retro phonograph with a variety of albums. Our Sunday morning breakfast included a side of bacon and a magical mix of Billy Holiday and Frank Sinatra. The mornings were a bit chilly for coffee on the deck but we did enjoy the lovely setting for a late afternoon glass of wine and the expansive view. We were only 2 people in the spacious first floor but it could easily accommodate 8 and is perfect for families. We loved everything about this property and hope to return in the future. Thanks Whitney & Mark (and Lucy & Jackson, too)!

About the host

Hosted by Mark&Whitney

We fell in love with the Hudson River Valley and everything it has to offer including the abundance of wineries, farms, orchards, hiking trails and museums. We love the artistic community in this area and often frequent DI: Beacon, Storm King Art Center, and local galleries and festivals. We have lived across the United States from California, Chicago, Florida, North Carolina, New York City and have now decided to make the Hudson Valley our home. This area provides a coziness and certain slowness that we indulge in as city transplants.

When we found the farmhouse we instantly felt a connection and a duty to restore her to her former glory. The house and property were in quite disarray and we have/are slowly and methodically renovating our way through the house. The house boasts over 7,000 square feet of unique spaces and the grounds have an abundance of cypress trees, meandering grape vines, two ponds and a beautiful stream.

We keep the third floor apartment for ourselves and our two loving dogs; we may be on site during your stay to tend to the gardens and maintenance of the house. If you need assistance with anything we are available 24/7 either through Airbnb or direct text to help make your stay as enjoyable as possible.

Why they chose this property

Marlboro is a wonderful little gem of a town. The little downtown has Franks Deli, Brix Gastropub, The Falcon Music Venue, The Raccoon Saloon... what more do you really need?

For those seeking to explore the rich local heritage of art & history during your stay, there are many institutions within a short drive from the house:

DIA: Beacon is a renowned contemporary art museum directly across the river.

Storm King Art Center is an open-air museum with the largest collection of contemporary outdoor sculptures in the U.S.

Washington’s Headquarters
The Vanderbilt Estate
The Roosevelt Estates
U.S. Military Academy at West Point
Culinary Institute of America
(The brief list here is just some of our favorites; we'd be happy to guide you to many more if that is what interests you)

We are close to the Walkway Over the Hudson and the Hudson Valley Rail Trail, and not far from Lake Minnewaska and Bear Mountain. We are on the Shawangunk Wine trail which includes the following Marlboro wineries: Benmarl, Glorie Farm Winery, Stoutridge Vinyard, Magnanini Winery and Nostrano Vineyards.

A few breweries in the area are Weed Orchards, Bad Seed Cider, Newburgh Brewing Company, Hudson Ale Works, Mill House Brewing Company, The Gluten Free Brewery, Weed Orchards, Blue Collar Brewery, North River Hops and Brewing, Obercreek Brewing Company, 2 Way Brewing Company, Hudson Valley Brewery, and Keegan Ales.

Attractions for families include the Children’s Museum in Poughkeepsie, the historic Gomez Mill House Museum, Rocking Horse Ranch, SSplashdown Beach Waterpark, Stony Kill Farm and Environmental Education Center

What makes this property unique

At night, there is almost no light pollution, and the stars in the sky overhead are stunning... You will hear: frogs in the pond, roosters from the farms down the road, coyotes up on the mountainside, owls in the grove of birch trees, tractors driving past, the orchard horn at noon, Canadian Geese flying overhead... and at night: silence (punctuated softly once in a while by the train whistle from across the river)
