Mountain View Vineyard Cottage

Head to the countryside to unplug & unwind during your stay in our rustic four-roomed 1800s farmhouse located on 140 bucolic acres where grass-fed beef cattle and horses graze on open space preserved land, rolling hills, streams, woods, barns, vineyard & winery beneath the majestic Shawangunk Mountains. Take a stroll on our grounds where you will be immersed in nature and wildlife at the base of Minnewaska Preserve, Sam’s Point Preserve, and Mohonk Preserve. The space Enjoy your stay in our rustic farmhouse located in the agricultural Hudson Valley community of Gardiner, NY. We are an operating grass-fed beef and horse farm, vineyard & winery at the base of the Shawangunk Mountains. Upon waking up in the morning, the views are not to be missed! Enjoy your morning coffee or tea, or our very own Bruynswick Winery estate wines throughout the afternoon and evening in the picnic grove as you gaze upon cows grazing in green pastures until your eyes wander up to the towering cliffs of Shawangunk Mountains that surround the farm. Also, give us a call to order our Kiernan Farm grass-fed beef to flame broil in the commercial oven and stove top range. We are only minutes away from rock climbing, hiking, running, yoga, canoeing, kayaking, swimming (ice skating and nordic skiing during winter) or cycling at Mohonk Preserve and Minnewaska State Park Preserve, or step out the front door and meander around our country roads for a jog or leisurely walk. Besides our winery at the farm, we are located along the Shawangunk Wine Trail and within minutes of over a dozen other amazing wineries, cideries, breweries, distilleries, and incredible farm to table restaurants. Gardiner is also home to a sky diving ranch and many art & yoga studios strewn throughout its country roads. Come stay to get away from it all and enjoy the fresh country air.

Some people are more sensitive to it and some do not notice it, but it is safe to drink, cook with, clean with, and bathe in. We provide spring water in the kitchen for you to drink as well.
