The Lodge is our version of the perfect Hudson Valley getaway, with the best parts of all the places we've stayed. It's an indulgent country escape with the comfiest beds, cushiest couches and coziest nooks to relax. Fluffy towels, soft blankets, two well-stocked kitchens, and campfire supples await, all surrounded by stunning forest views, a babbling brook you can see and hear from the house and close to everything you need. Welcome to our magical escape! IG: @thelodgeupstate. The Lodge is a magical country escape just one hour from NYC. With its open floor plan, high ceilings and furniture meant for melting into, it's the perfect spot to relax and unwind with family and friends. Enjoy your morning coffee on the screen porch while listening to the sounds of the babbling brook. Gather around the fire pit for s'mores, laughs and sounds of the forest. With three living rooms, there's plenty of space for everyone to have a good time and have privacy. Please note we CANNOT allow pets (including service animals) - we have a severe dog allergy in the family and this causes a big issue. Thank you for your understanding. The Lodge has four official bedrooms (2 king rooms, a room with 2 twins, and a queen room) + a loft area that offers privacy and plenty of cozy spaces to lay down. Additionally, we have a "Zen Den" on the lower level that has a full couch and is a great spot for meditation, reading, playtime and naps. Any questions on this, just shoot us a message. The house is on 2.5 private acres and includes a private wooded area that you can hike if you wish. We recommend bringing hiking shoes or sneakers because it's a little steep and can be muddy! You can also take a stroll on our very private road up to a gorgeous view and along the brook. Just turn left outside the house and walk around the road barrier and up. For perfect sunsets, we've built "Sunset Ridge". This is an elevated sitting area on the hill behind our house with chairs and a beautiful stone wall where you can see all the colors as the sun goes down on your relaxing day. We also have three living rooms — the light and airy movie/yoga/office space in the loft upstairs, the "conversation pit" on the main floor, and another living room + TV on the lower level. Both living rooms on the upper levels are fitted with skylights that provide plenty of natural light. The lower level can function as its own self-contained apartment with its own bathroom, living room, bedroom, and easy in/out access from the lower level (without using stairs) through the laundry room and into the garage. Please note that we are the red/brown house on the right of the driveway. There are two parking spaces outside the garage and another at the bottom of the driveway. Uber and Lyft are available but it can take a little time to get one so we recommend planning 20 mins ahead. We also have put some car service options in the binder you'll see when you arrive. We're about 15 mins to the Croton-on-Hudson and Peekskill train stations and about 30 minutes from Cold Spring (all accessible via Metro North from Grand Central NYC). We'll be just a text or call away while visiting! We recommend traveling by car, but the Peekskill train station is also about 15 mins away. You can grab an Uber from there. Please note we CANNOT allow pets (including service animals) - we have a severe dog allergy in the family and this causes a big issue. Thank you for your understanding.
