Escape to Stissing Lake Guest Cottage, a newly renovated 2-bed, 2-bath retreat in the Hudson Valley. Nestled on an 11-acre estate by Stissing Lake, just 90 miles from NYC. Immerse in country living, swim, kayak, and explore nearby adventures like antiquing, horseback riding, golfing, skiing, and ziplining. Your gateway to peace and small-town charm!

We’ve just renovated our cozy cottage to offer a fresh and inviting stay! Enjoy a brand-new country kitchen, new appliances, updated bathrooms (photos coming soon), fresh paint, and brand-new beds, mattresses and linens throughout.

Choose from two charming bedrooms: The sunny yellow room features one double and one twin bed, plus a soothing clawfoot tub for ultimate relaxation. The blue bedroom, also with one double and one single bed, offers an en-suite bathroom complete with rain shower and a peaceful, windowless environment—ideal for those who crave privacy and uninterrupted rest.

Located just a short stroll from Stissing Lake, our guest cottage is perfect for year-round stays, whether you’re seeking a peaceful retreat or need temporary housing for employees.

$5.5k/month for the full experience, or reach out for shorter stays. Embrace the cabin life and leave the city hustle behind!

Your stay, your adventure! Enjoy the fire pit, BBQ, kayaking, and swimming from the private dock—all included in the rental. Dive into lake life! #GuestAccess #LakeEscape

We have a caretaker cottage on the property and are available for recommendations and questions as needed.

Stissing Lake offers an ideal place to relax, lots of room to roam and indulge in the magic of nature. Enjoy spring blossoms, summer fun in the water or the gorgeous fall foliage. Hike Stissing Mountain, picnic on the lawn, kayak or paddle boat around Stissing Lake, swim without the distraction of motorized boats, fish for Bass, watch the swans and turtles on the lake or birdwatch at Thomson Nature Preserve. Hudson Valley is home to artisan distillers, breweries, dairies, farmers markets, historic mansion tours, horseback riding, antiquing, and much more!
