ABOUT THE COTTAGE
We welcome guests seeking to get away to a relaxing environment/be surrounded by nature/pets are welcomed. It’s the ideal place for those seeking to work from home.

The Cottage by the Lake is a cozy, secret get-away on the scenic banks of the Croton Watershed. About an hour from NYC, it’s on the property of an 1850 farmhouse. Surrounded by nature, a vegetable garden and big open areas with phenomenal views, the property has a seasonal pool with a lounge area and a Zen garden. Enjoy everything that the Hudson Valley offers including parks, towns, country shops, galleries, antique shops, restaurants and vineyards. Watercolors by the owner are displayed on the walls and available for purchase.
THE SPACE
The Cottage has a fully equipped kitchen & bath, cathedral ceiling, working fireplace & a spiral staircase leading to a cozy sleeping loft for two.
The main floor sofa opens into a full-size bed for a 3rd /4th guest. The private patio offers tranquil views of the lake, fire pit and gas bbq grill, the perfect place to unwind with your favorite beverage. BREAKFAST
The house-made specialty breakfast is included in the price of each Friday & Saturday night's stay and available for an additional cost Sunday thru Thursday -- $16 per day for each adult, $10/day for each child. Food is prepared with fresh seasonal vegetables/fruits and herbs form our garden.
THE LAKE/RESERVOIR
The scenic beauty of the lakeside views are breathtaking in every season. Enjoy a relaxing stroll through our vegetable garden. Amble or jog along Maple Road, which hugs the lake for over 2 miles. Important to know: the water is protected by the town of Southeast, the only recreation permitted is fishing with a permit. On chilly days, warm yourself by the functioning wood-burning stove. There is firewood available. Skewers and the makings of S’mores are provided. The patio offers comfortable Adirondack chairs and a gas fueled bbq grill.
