Wonderful house!
My parents and I stayed at the house for a weekend. Maureen's house was beautiful! It was spotlessly clean, incredibly well stocked, and wonderfully decorated. We wished we could have stayed there forever! And the view and sunset were amazing. We're excited to hopefully be back to stay again!

A beautiful getaway!
We had such an amazing time staying here!! The house was well stocked with anything you could think of needing! This is a perfect area to stay in if you want a quiet, peaceful, and relaxing getaway! The cabin is super close to the town where we found cute shops and very good restaurants. Definitely check out Main Street or The Dutch. We would definitely stay here again!!

BEST Christmas Getaway!
Maureen is the greatest host — always happy to answer questions and check-in on you just in case. Her home is so cozy and stocked for anything a guest might need. We can’t recommend her enough. We spent a magical Christmas surrounded by cedar trees and a crackling fireplace. 10/10

The perfect weekend getaway!
The cottage was everything we were looking for and more. The host was incredibly thoughtful and attentive. Our dog may have enjoyed it more than we did in the best way possible ! We are already looking forward to coming back !

About the host

Hosted by Maureen Cornwell

Host profile image
I am an Interior Designer, originally from the Midwest and Upstate New York. My husband, Ross, grew up in the cottage, he is now a fine artist and painting professor.

Why they chose this property

This property is my husband's childhood home. His parents rented, then purchased the cottage from a local landowner in the mushroom business. The house is filled with warm memories as well as examples of Ross's early paintings. He was and is strongly influenced by the beaurtiful Hudson Valley light!

What makes this property unique

The quiet setting is truly magical. I will never forget the first time I drove up the hill and saw the house and stone chimney surrounded by cedar trees. It is a special place!!
