Loved every minute of our stay. Clean, lots of natural sunlight, beautiful views, kids loved the game room - wouldn’t change a thing! We’ll definitely be going back.

Magical :)
We had an absolutely wonderful time at "The Fels." "The Fels" is a stunning property perched on a dramatic curve above the Hudson River. The house is spacious, sun-lite, and well designed for both group activities and privacy. And with a media room, game room, hot tub, seasonal swimming pool, tennis court, and great river overlook decks with a fire pit, you can be as active (or just chill) as you want. We spent 8 nights including Christmas, gathering around the fireplace in the "great room" after sunset cocktails on the deck, and dinner at the large oval table looking out over the river. The kitchen is smallish but well appointed. The house is 10 minutes (or less) from both New Paulz and Poughkeepsie, and just 15 minutes to Kingston for restaurants and shopping. And the owner is helpful and responsive if needed, so we could simply relax and enjoy our special holiday visit.

Summer retreat
Had a wonderful stay over two weekends. The house is beautiful and the views are just breath taking. Loved watching the sunset and summer lightning storms over the Hudson River. Not much reason to ever leave except for getting groceries and wine. Would come back in a heartbeat.
