A spacious, restored farmhouse on 3 private acres in the heart of the Hudson Valley—perfect for family vacations, group getaways, and retreats. With golf course views in the front and wooded privacy in the back, this home offers a peaceful setting with plenty of room to gather, relax, and recharge.
Below is a full breakdown of the layout, design, and amenities to help you get familiar with the space before your stay.
[Common Living Spaces]
{Kitchen} Bright and open with sweeping views of Olde Kinderhook Golf Course, the kitchen is the heart of the home. It’s fully stocked with essentials including a coffee maker, cookware, a 4-burner induction stove, pot filler, and a 36" Viking refrigerator. The space includes multiple seating areas—an island and a breakfast nook—making it easy to cook, chat, and hang out. Though the dining room is central, the kitchen was intentionally designed to feel like the hub of the house.
{Dining Room} This space features a large table that seats 8 (with room to add a few more chairs for larger groups), dimmable lighting to set the mood, and a beautiful fireplace for ambiance.
***For safety reasons and because it can leave a lingering odor in the house, we kindly ask that you do not use the indoor fireplace—but the outdoor firepit is available and perfect for gathering under the stars.
{Living Room} A cozy and quaint space designed for relaxed gatherings or casual downtime. Enjoy fast WiFi and a 55" smart TV with access to Xumo streaming, offering over 350+ live channels. The room also features a beautiful fireplace that adds charm to the space—please note that it is not for use, but the outdoor firepit is available for fires during your stay. There will also be board games available for a fun night in with family or friends.
{Sunroom} A peaceful four-season room at the front of the house, perfect for morning coffee, reading, or lounging. With multiple seating areas, a daybed, and views of the surrounding woods and golf course, it’s a great spot to relax any time of day. This space also serves as the home’s secondary entrance/mudroom, accessible through an exterior door.
{Reading Nook (Upstairs)} This quiet corner features a cozy chair with a pull-out reading light. There are also nearby drawers and a closet stocked with extra linens and towels.
[Outdoor Amenities]
{Carriage House} A former horse-and-buggy garage turned flexible hangout and dining space. Open up the barn doors to enjoy the breeze and indoor/outdoor feel. This space connects to the kitchen through the laundry room/mudroom for easy access. This is where the infrared sauna is housed for your rest and relaxation.
{Fire Pit} Enjoy a night under the stars with a cozy fire surrounded by Adirondack chairs and lounge seating. Let us know if you plan to use it—we usually keep firewood stocked, but we’re happy to confirm availability before your stay.

Our stay at the Olde Kinderhook House couldn’t have been more perfect! The countryside setting was so beautiful and relaxing and the house was just as beautiful. Lots of windows to see the surrounding nature. The nearby lake and old structures offered great photo ops and we even came across 2 huge turtles in the front lawn! The house had large areas where our family could gather, a beautiful sunroom, and a cozy nook to read a good book. The Harvest Smokehouse and Golden Harvest Farms were just a short drive to town and had delicious bbq, apple cider donuts & scones, and apple cider brandy. A short drive to the airport, Troy, and downtown Albany made the location convenient for us. We attended our child’s graduation at RPI and the whole family came from CA. We had two 95 yo grandparents and we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Our host Austin was very attentive to our needs and responded to our messages very quickly. We would definitely stay here again!
