⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely Wonderful Weekend Stay!
We had such an amazing weekend at this beautiful home on Kings Road in Highland Falls. From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. The house was spotless, thoughtfully prepared, and incredibly comfortable. Every detail was carefully considered, making us feel right at home.
The location is perfect — peaceful, scenic, and close to nature. It’s an ideal getaway spot for relaxing and recharging. The neighborhood is quiet and safe, and the surrounding views are absolutely lovely.
The hosts bwere exceptional — responsive, kind, and genuinely caring. Communication was smooth from start to finish, and they made sure we had everything we needed for a perfect stay. You can truly feel the effort they put into creating a welcoming experience.
We enjoyed every moment there and left feeling refreshed and grateful. If you’re looking for a cozy, beautiful, and well-managed place to stay in Highland Falls, this is it. Highly recommend

We had a wonderful stay at this property. The home is spacious, clean, and beautifully laid out, perfect for larger groups. The views of the Hudson River are absolutely stunning and really make the experience special.
The kitchen and common areas were great for gathering, and the additional space in the pool house was a huge plus. Everything felt welcoming and comfortable, and the host was responsive and easy to communicate with.
The location is excellent , close to West Point, Bear Mountain, and other activities in the area, yet still peaceful and scenic. It’s an ideal spot whether you’re visiting the area, planning a retreat, or just looking for a relaxing getaway with family and friends.
We truly enjoyed our time and would absolutely consider staying again.

We just got back from an amazing winter weekend at this beautiful old house right on the Hudson River in Upper New York. Three families—six adults and three kids (21 months, 4 years, and 7 years)—stayed together, and there was honestly more than enough space for everyone to spread out, play, nap, and just hang without stepping on each other.
The place has that classic late-1800s charm (it was apparently part of J.P. Morgan’s summer estate back in the day, and Billy Joel supposedly drew some inspiration here too—maybe even for “New York State of Mind”). But it’s been updated in all the right ways: two dishwashers (huge help after feeding nine people), a brand-new fridge, washer and dryer that got constant use, and a really nice sauna. We turned the heat on after coming in from the cold, and it heated up the space quickly—perfect for warming up and relaxing.
Benjamin, the host, was fantastic—super welcoming, quick to reply to every message, and really accommodating with anything we neede

We had an amazing 2 night stay at this property. The house is stunning, peaceful, and private. It has plenty of amenities and was fully stocked up on every you need (baby monitor, crib, infinite coffee and tea, etc.). Benjamin was a great host. He was very responsive, provided clear instructions and allowed us to check in very early and enjoy the full day there. We will definitely come back again.

We had a great stay at this home! It was clean, comfortable, and exactly what we needed. The space felt welcoming and well cared for, and everything worked just as expected.
What really stood out was how accommodating the host was in helping us arrange everything on short notice. Communication was quick and easy, which made the whole experience stress-free from start to finish.
We truly appreciated the hospitality and would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a comfortable and reliable place to stay!

This house is indescribable. No pictures or description could accurately capture the stunning view, the spacious and elegant interior, the unique layout and history.
I went with a group for my birthday and we all had some of the best times of our lives in no small part because of the home.
It’s really a special spot and I hope to return again.
And Benjamin was a great and responsive host who clearly works hard to keep the house well stocked and maintained!!
