Privacy in the hills one hour from NYC and minutes to Breakneck Mtn.

120 year old stone home in the woods with a seasonal view of the Northern ridgeline. This is a No Smoking home that's situated on 90 acres. Its a secluded private location, not far from several towns such as Beacon, Cold spring, Carmel and Mahopac that have all your necessities. Miles upon miles of hiking trails begin just 2 miles to the west in Fahnestock State Park which also has summer boat rentals, beach and a winter park for snow activities such as xcountry skiing, sledding and snowshoeing. There is some limited snowshoeing on property when the conditions permit. There is No hiking permitted on the property unless specified and permission is granted.
Located in the Historic Hudson Valley you are close to many actvities including, Breakneck Mountain, Historic Cold Spring, Beacon, Bear Mountain State Park, Westpoint Military Academy, Thunder Ridge skiing, Ninham Mountain, White Pond Multiple Use Areas, and the Hudson Highlands State Park. Other nearby attractions include Chuang Yen Monastery, Boscobel, Glynwood Gardens, Constitution Marsh and Breakneck Ridge. Lost in the Woods is a great place to unwind, read, write, relax outdoors or indoors. There is not a neighbor in sight from this old homestead, where you are far from the hustle and bustle of more populated areas . With ample windows, two bonus rooms, and a working fireplace you will feel like you are outdoors even when sheltered inside. Enjoy the serenity of this rural home which is only about an hour drive from NYC and 20 minutes from two Metro-North train stations. You will find supermarkets and local restaurants conveniently nearby in the Town of Carmel and you will find it's only a 20 minute ride down scenic Route 301 and Route 9D to the City of Beacon, 10 miles to the quaint Village of Cold Spring., The City of Poughkeepsie, the Newburgh Waterfront and Danbury Ct. are a 30 minute drive. Please NO shooting, NO hunting, or motorized recreational vehicles on the property.

Was a perfect place for Christmas
I was beyond pleased with the place. It was so cozy exactly what I was looking for to spend a week in New York at Christmas time. It was super clean, and the owners responded quickly when we had a question. As soon as we walked in instantly, I felt at home . This is the first time that I’ve stated a place that I slept well in the bed, beds were so comfortable. I can’t wait to come and stay here again, thank you for providing a wonderful place for people .

Quiet and peaceful
We loved Lost In The Woods! It was very secluded and quiet, yet close to so many attractions. We enjoyed Cold Spring, Wappingers Falls, New Paltz and Bearsville during our stay. Excellent hiking nearby in Fahnestock, and of course, Breakneck Ridge. Also went to see the Buddhist monastery. The hosts left clear instructions and were very easy to work with. The kitchen had everything and the bed was very comfortable. The extra room off the kitchen is perfect for seeing the grounds without having to brave the heat or bugs. There is also a beautiful deck and fire pit. Would definitely go back!

Nice Stay in the Woods
We had a very nice, quiet stay at this woodland cabin. Driveway is a bit rough and location to Cold Spring was a bit far. But overall we had a very nice time. Accurate to listing, and great for a family.

Perfect setting
We were in town for just a few days attending a seminar… cant wait to come back! First thing noticed on arrival, set back on private drive surrounded by woods, totally awesome. Peaceful, clean, all the amenities from home, set in the woods, just a magnificent stay. Thanks for sharing!

A quiet haven
The house and property were well cared for and provided lovely views of the woods, sunrises, sunsets, and a stellar sky. The property is large and woodsy, had a lot of birds, deer, and wild turkeys, and was so quiet you can’t help feeling peaceful. The owners were friendly, communicated well, and took care of minor issues quickly.
