Summary: My husband and I spent over 3 months at Letizia and Scott' property while waiting for construction to start in our NYC apt (1h45 drive). We enjoyed every minute of it! The house, the neighborhood, the overall area (the gunks). The house is farm-like with a wonderful porch (and BBQ) to take in the sun, moon light, and a fireplace for cooler moments. Being there from Sept to Dec we were lucky to experience 3 seasons, from glorious fall to 16'' snow! The house is decorated with a lot of art, unique furniture and objects. It has the distinction of not being a standard rental (a lot of character including farm-like doors and a magnificent staircase) but also is perfectly organized for tenants. No clutter and many thoughtful details (large supply of wood; well equipped kitchen; records, cds; hiking guides, etc.). Letizia and Scott respond very quickly to any request and will do anything to make sure guests are comfortable. It was spotless clean when we arrived. When we first visited the house (before renting for 3 months) Scott and Letizia took us for a magical hike right behind their property (Bear hill preserve) and ends at a stone overlook of the valley which we redid many times. At that time we had not realized how special the neighborhood is, an enclave with no passing-through roads; one can take a walk with no traffic; populated enough not to feel isolated but a lot of much preserved nature and quiet! It had been a long time since I had experienced such quietness; many country houses seem to be plagued with lawn mowing; leaves or snow blowing, no such thing in that neighborhood. Most houses are unique with a mix of wood and stones. There is a charming church with another overlook. From all windows of the house you do not see any house; and at each time of the day the lower floor gets a beautiful light. The first floor Master bedroom and "great room" are vast and beautifully decorated; they get plenty of light. We used the "great" room as a guest bedroom when need be as the children room requires to walk through the master bedroom. The second bedroom and bathroom are small but perfectly adequate. Master bedroom bed is very comfortable. The area has many beautiful hikes. We recommend red trail of the Shawangunk (8 min drive from house) or Minnewaska lake or Mohonk preserve many splendid walks (40 min). Sam's point is also nearby but many trails were closed due to covid. We loved our stay and hope to be back!

Summary: We spent August here and loved every moment in beautiful Cragsmoor. The house is great: large and comfortable with everything we needed. There is a lovely porch where we ate and relaxed each day. In addition, the house includes a grand piano - perfect for us as musicians🎶 The owners, Letizia and Scott, pointed out a number of sites/places to visit in the area. They were always available to us by text and phone if we had any questions. This was a perfect get away, especially in this surreal time!

Summary: I could spend every night sitting on the porch, feeling the breeze and watching the flowers and trees. Plenty of space away from the neighbors, with amazing hikes and wineries a short drive away. The host made everything so easy and even left us a wildflower bouquet on the kitchen table. This is a really special property and a great city getaway!

Summary: I lived in this beautiful art filled home for 18 months with my fiancee in the sleepy artisan colony of Cragsmoor NY. The space is warm and welcoming and the house is filled with spectacular light and the views are stunning, as are the four seasons. We spent many nights cooking in the gourmet kitchen , playing the piano and enjoying our dinners in front of the glorious stone fireplace . Our summer days were spent hiking and exploring & our summer nights were spent sipping wine on the front porch watching the sun go down. The hosts, Scott and Letizia are gracious to a fault and were always accessible if we ever had a question, but quite honestly we had very few. Had my job not changed, we would still be living in this beautiful space. Jennifer

Summary: Very much enjoyed our stay at Cragsmoor. Great place to spend a significant birthday. Love the proximity to Minnewaska State Park, quiet walks around the neighborhood, dinners on the front porch, fireworks from the Old Stone Church and wine tastings in nearby Pine Bush. Not to forget all there is to do in Ulster County overall. A lovely vacation and Letizia was a most responsive host.

Summary: We stayed here over Memorial Day weekend. Great house and great outdoor space, very close to nearby hiking. Sam's Point and Bear Hill Preserve are a short walk away. Everything in the house was in great shape, and Letizia was very helpful and accomodating. Highly recommended!

Summary: This is a beautiful home set in nature, with mountain views, stunning vistas within a short walk from the house, and a preserve backing to the property. The home is spacious, with a gorgeous kitchen and dining room, with additional options to dine outside on the generous patio. The home is well stocked with abundant linens and pantry items, as well as cookware. Attention to detail is everywhere, as well as inspiring artwork and a studio and music area. We loved our stay here, highly recommend this place, and can't wait to come back again. One small note: guests may want to purchase bottled water to drink, as sometimes the running water can carry an odor of sulfur, natural to the area. But we made tea and coffee with it and showered with no problem. This home is a gem!

Summary: We spent 2 months here while we were remodeling our home. The pictures on the website don’t do the house justice. It is absolutely beautiful, from the moment you walk in the door, you feel like your at home, your not a visitor. We spent many nights listening to music while cooking dinner in th gourmet kitchen, and dined in front of the fireplace. Leitza is a warm and gracious hostess, she met is with coffe and freshly baked cookies, and was very accommodating and accessible We look forward to coming back.

Summary: We stayed in this beautiful old house during the weekend of a family wedding in the area. The house is exactly as described and the pictures are a good representation of what to expect. Our group of six very much enjoyed using the kitchen for big breakfasts in the morning. The kitchen has everything you could want or need, with updated appliances and a huge table perfect for group meals! We also loved enjoying coffee on the porch, and the musicians in our group loved the baby grand piano! Letizia is a wonderful host. She surprised us with fresh apples, flowers, and cookies when we got there! We had no issues at all during our stay. She was very quick to respond to texts in the days leading up to our visit. The downside to this house, which is evident in their listing, is that there is only 1 shower, and one of the bedrooms is connected to the master bedroom through that bathroom. This was not a problem for our group, as we were family and didn't mind sharing space. But I would caution it for groups who are expecting a little more privacy. Also, it is an old house and although they have renovated important aspects and keep it beautiful and clean, the floors are very squeaky and sound tends to travel easily. In my opinion, the house still deserves 5 stars because part of the charm is the authenticity of the home. The hike to Bear Hill was very easy, and the view was one of my favorite parts of our trip! We hope to stay again when we are in the area! Pros: Updated kitchen Huge porch Comfortable beds & towels Beautiful, quiet neighborhood Cons: only one shower sound travels easily squeaky floors
