9 Bedroom House in Cragsmoor

This beautiful, nine bedroom, art-filled home with an enormous wraparound porch and a huge, fully-stocked kitchen is a mountaintop dream come true. An hour and a half from upper Manhattan and walking distance to Sam's Point Preserve hiking trails, the house has both kitchen and pantry sinks, a dishwasher, espresso machine, a smoker and a grill, and a huge array of kitchen appliances and cooking utensil.
The house is just down the road from the beautiful hiking trails of Sam's Point Preserve, which is connected to Minnewaska State Park, and an hour from art at DIA Beacon and Storm King. The new Legoland is about 35 minutes away. There are many wineries, and for the warmer weather there are so many swimming holes and hikes nearby.
The house is the perfect place to spend time with friends and families drinking coffee in the morning sun in the library, cooking together in the massive kitchen and sharing a meal at the dining room table that seats sixteen. At night you can watch movies in the huge living room and there are plenty of games for kids, including foosball and an air hockey table inside, and croquet and badminton outside. The house is located in a quiet mountaintop town which is on the National Historic Register. Situated on four acres with a big grassy yard, the house is a short distance from New Paltz, Kingston, Woodstock, Accord, Lake Minnewaska, wineries, cideries and countless antique shops, and it is 45 minutes from Woodbury Commons.
This house was built for landscape painters in the late 1800's, to go to the mountaintop and paint. Remnants of the history are seen throughout the house, from the steel and glass windows in the library and some bedrooms, to century-old telephones. Please be aware, this is an old house in a historic district, and we are trying to maintain as much of the original details as possible. It has the charm of an old house, but if that is not your thing, it may not be the house for you.
It is not intended for parties or loud groups, but it is perfect for extended families, multiple families or groups of friends who are looking for a place to read, cook and have dinners together, play and enjoy the snow in a sunny, warm house. It is a historic home with a lot of character, and does not have air conditioning, though because it is mountaintop, there are always breezes and it cools off quickly in the evenings. It is a great house for kids, both inside and out.
We are often able to allow for an early arrival and late departure, so if that might be beneficial, please feel to ask!

Summary: Our friends have an annual reunion trip with our families. This house was absolutely perfect. The kitchen and dining room layout is beautiful for cooking together and enjoying meals. There’s a fantastic record player, sound system, and record collection. There’s also a little breakfast nook close by, right next to a play area with toys for young kids. It’s a short drive to Sam’s Point, which has an absolutely breath taking view. Could not have asked for a better place, we’ll be back next year!!

Summary: Our group of 12 enjoyed a wonderful stay at Rob’s historical house in Cragsmoor for a long weekend. The layout of the house was perfect for everyone to enjoy the privacy of their own room while gathering in the kitchen and living room to socialize. The kitchen is really the center piece of the house; it is equipped with everything one would need! Everyone enjoyed spending Time on the patio or hiking in the Sam’s Point Reserve. Communication , check-in and out were very smooth !

Summary: Our weekend stay was a reunion of first cousins, three of whom turned 80 this year. Fourteeen people in all, we relished meals cooked together in the large, friendly, well equipped kitchen and eaten around the table seating 16 in the open-plan dining area. The bedrooms are lovely, each one different, and the wraparound porch was perfect for relaxing and socializing. "The guys" also enjoyed grilling one dinner together. Some of us hiked up to Sam's Point just a mile way, a NY Park with broad paths and spectacular rock formations and views (requires a resevertion: it's popular!). With plenty of spaces for privacy, a nearby Hannaford's in caseyou forgot or needed something, a full complemet of herbs, spices and staples, many options for nearby hikes and a responsive, communicative host, it's the perfect place for a large group to gather. Highly, highly recommended!

Summary: The house is genuinely spacious. It easily accommodated our group of 15 people. There are nine real, full-sized bedrooms, and the common spaces are supersized, including the dining room & kitchen, and the glorious, endless wrap-around porch. It is an old house, a little frayed around the edges, and probably not the right choice for those who prefer new, sleek and immaculate. But we loved its quirks and charm. Its former lives as a boarding house, and later as the home of an artist, are very much on display: The ceramic "Ladies" sign above a second-floor bathroom; the vast collection of art books in the library. It's also a wonderland for children, overflowing with games and toys and fun places to play.

Summary: My family voted unanimously that this place is it! We are 6+4 significant others, so 10. We had our own spaces and ample commons spaces to gather, cook, eat, read and more. We love the proximity to hikes and climbs. The kitchen went beyond expectation.
