Nicely updated farmhouse on great property. Lots of rooms to spread out and big dining room for everyone to gather for meals. Well supplied kitchen made cooking easy. Great communications with owners when weather got bad and for instructions using fireplace. Would stay again when in area.
Beautiful house with everything you need! And the host Simone was very responsive and helpful. We could not recommend this property more highly -- it's the perfect country getaway.
This property is so amazing! Modern and up to date and so well kept! We loved the art, space and setting. A very comfortable and welcoming place/environment.
House is in a quiet location on a nice property. Sufficiently equipped for grilling/cooking. 10-30 minutes to hikes and towns depending on where you are going. Neighborhood is good to walk/run/bike in.
We had a lovely weekend at Simone’s placeWonderful hiking nearby and a peaceful escape from the city. We got to have our favorite Catskills pizza at Ollies in High Falls and see fireflies in the yard at night. Clean and well appointed and would certainly come back again.
Beautiful farmhouse located on a quiet, desolate street. Beautiful views of the property. A very peaceful retreat. Excellent, prompt communication from the host. Highly recommend this property!
The property was absolutely perfect. The house is the epitome of North East cozy charm...with the beautiful grounds full of snow and the amazing hardwood floors and most cozy room with a fireplace and wood beamed ceilings!!!! I loved this property and the host was amazing. Very accessible!!
We had a perfect stay at the beautiful farmhouse with all of the modern amenities.Outdoor space is to die for fenced in for your pup walking trails nature trails water features running streams..Cherry on top is that the listing is very generous with check-in and checkout times you can check in at 3 and you check out at 12. This feature allows for true relaxation!Book it!!
Great communication with owner - very helpful and quick to respond. Simone did anything she could to make our stay a success. Renovated old farmhouse on beautiful property. Well done renovated bathrooms. Plenty of pots and pans for cooking. We had two toddlers and there are several short steps inside that we needed to keep close watch on around the steps.
This home has been updated nicely and is situated on a nice amount of land to take your pup for a nice walk during the mornings and whenever you are "at home." The kitchen has been well renovated and the beds are very comfy. Close to lots of good hiking and food in New Paltz and the surrounding area. Simone is a responsive host.
Really enjoyed our time. Great recommendations for dinners. Nice quiet location. Great place for our dog to play outside. Fireplace didn’t seem to work was only glitch. Would recommend to others for sure

Not sure why he is saying the fireplace wasn’t working it’s a wood fireplace and you need to insert the wood and light it.
It’s not electric.
I am always available for any questions during your stay!
Very cozy, warm, and welcoming farmhouse, updated with great amenities and tasteful modern addition, with a generous dining room and easy to use kitchen. All spaces, rooms, linens, kitchenware, etc. were clean and well-maintained. Beautiful wooded property with ponds, streams, and access up to Gertrude's Nose Trail directly behind the property via a vigorous hike on well-delineated hiking paths. We highly recommend the property, and the Property Manager (Simone) was great.
This is a great place to stay if you're going to Minnewaska State Park or the Mohonk Preserve, both of which are just a 15 minute drive away. The kitchen is well appointed and had everything we needed for a five night stay. I thought the beds would be uncomfortable when I first saw them because they are on platforms without box springs, but that wasn't the case and we both slept very well. And we were very pleased that the master bedroom had a king sized bed because so many of the other VRBO's didn't.
We were comfortable, we had everything we needed, and the place was beautiful. What more could you ask for in a VRBO?
This was a quaint farmhouse with a lot of character. Very clean and spacious. I would say that only issue was that all the floorboards were so creaky that if you got up at night it was very loud, but that came with the age of the house. WiFi super fast, Simone very nice, very hospitable. The surrounding lake and ponds with turtles were fab, wildlife ubundant, resident chipmunk by the window each day. Quiet area up in the mountain in Wallkill, peaceful and a nice drive to pine bush, new Paltz.
Gated entrance with good parking,
This was the first visit to the Stares for our elderly friends, and they loved the whole experience. Creaks from their joints as well as the floorboards 👍
Highly recommended
We were a party of 5, myself and my husband with our three 20 something kids. The house is modest from the exterior but the interior is very special. Old wide pine floors and wood beamed ceilings - very unexpected! Everything we needed was there, comfortable furnishings and a tv to watch the basketball games. The property itself is gorgeous, with a waterfall in the backyard and expansive lawn. It's a short walk or drive to a lake with other lakes and hikes nearby. Very private area. Three bathrooms is also very nice to have! Lots to do in the area and close by. We went to FDRs home and presidential library, Westwind Orchards for pizza, golfing and LegoLand. The drives are beautiful! Very relaxing way to spend a long weekend. Simone is a great host with lots of info about things to do and places to eat in the area.
*This review is of the Brookview Farm property in New Paltz, NY. Our reservation was moved due to damage to the original property we booked near Tillson Lake.*
Brookview Farm met the needs of our family for our recent trip to NY. We appreciated Simone’s effort to offer an alternate location given the other location no longer being available only a week and a half from our trip date. Brookview offered ample space for our family to enjoy our time while at the house and a central location that allowed us to get together with family and friends in the area. The grounds were beautiful, spacious and fun to explore for our children. The solarium at the back of the house was a favorite spot while we visited!
I would note that it seemed as though the house may not have been stayed in recently. We spent the first couple days doing some cleaning around the house, mostly of extensive cobwebs under the cabinets and furniture, dirt and dust around the baseboards, rewashing dish and bath towels which were a bit damp smelling, and rewashing dishes that had residue. We didn’t end up using the hot tub due to debris and sediment in the water as well as several wasps going in and out (guessing they had made a nest around the edge). We also had inconsistent connection to Wi-Fi.
All in all, the house offered a comfortable location for our trip and was very welcoming.
Charming, beautifully renovated home.Set well back from the quiet road. Great deck with extensive grounds and a walk up into the woods behind. Well supplied (we did have to purchase our own paper towels and, oddly, clothes washer detergent..why?). All else is in place and quite pretty. Quite expensive but has a lot to offer, especially the excellent local lake for quick dips before venturing off to the Gunks, and quality appliances, etc. tho no microwave. Problem: one of the beds is absolutely unsleepable (the one surrounded by the wood frame). The mattress is really not meant for anything that we could tell, being inferior foam, and our son had to switch to the floor. That should be corrected. The sleeping arrangements in the fireplace room are best left to dogs, as there are two giant dog beds but not much else that's good for humans. Two massive dogs patrol the premises. Our pup was nervous ! Owners require hefty security deposit. Pleasant, enthusiastict owners live right next door.Views of the Gunks are seasonal, when there are no leaves! On the whole, we recommend.

we have added a micro wave to the kitchen. Usually we have washing detergent above the washer and in this case it would have been easiest to ask us for some and also for paper towels when it runs out.
Since we are a dog friendly property we left two dog beds in the fire place room which also features 2 lounge chairs and a sofa.
The mattress is a king size memory foam mattress which has been liked by many guests. It is a personal preference and not all preferences can be pleased. We do not stock different kind of mattresses in the basement and it would be impossible to do so.
We charge a security deposit of $1000 due to high quality appliances and custom designed furniture throughout the house.
We do have two large dogs but we coordinate them going into the yard with out guests.....
Stunning property, well suited to cook, spend time outside, etc. Proximity to the Gunks is insane. Would definitely recommend!!

About the host
Hosted by Simone
I been in the Hudson Valley for 18 years and we started sharing our property back in 2009 just when Vrbo started in this Area. I love traveling myself and always enjoyed having the best time when we stayed in a private home that feels like home
Why they chose this property
I love this area since it's only 90mins from New York and the perfect distance for a nice getaway. you have so many out door options here that I love from Hiking, climbing, biking, x-country skiing and even skydiving what me actually got to the area at first.
What makes this property unique
what makes this property unique is that it's very private and you are bordering natural preserve so you can't get any closer to nature. still you are very close to Gardiner and New Paltz or even Pine Bush for all your needs
