About this house rental
A long-standing guest favorite, the Carriage House has recently reopened after a period of private occupancy. Thoughtfully refreshed and lovingly maintained, it now welcomes guests back to a peaceful and inspiring Woodstock escape.
The Carriage House is a unique living space that was masterfully designed by the owner-architect to blend modern living with rustic/industrial features of the original barn-like structure. Rough hewn posts and beams, barn wood paneling and brick laid floors have been carefully preserved, while modern amenities such as spa-like bathrooms, a gourmet kitchen, central AC, an in-ground heated pool and extensive gardens (including an organic veggie/herb "kitchen garden") have been added.
Prepare snacks and meals in your fully-equipped gourmet kitchen, which features all new Miele appliances ~ including a commercial-quality 5-burner cooktop and oven that are built into a butcher block island opposite a double sink surrounded by white corian countertops.
A second Miele steam oven is built into the wall, along with a convenient Miele coffee system for grinding beans and brewing coffee/espresso, steaming milk for lattes/cappuccinos, or heating water for tea ~ all with the push of a button!
Dishes and pantry items are neatly stored in a wall of cabinets behind floor-to ceiling white doors that keep the kitchen looking sparse and minimal, so that the focus remains on the unique architectural elements of the original structure.
The kitchen is open to the dining area, which features a long farm table (seats 6) under a cathedral ceiling with clerestory windows and a hanging chandelier. Two sets of French doors on either side of the dining area open onto the yard/garden on one side, and a summer sleeping/reading porch on the other.
At the far end of the great room there’s a cozy sitting area where you can relax in front of a gas-fueled fireplace surrounded by floor-to-ceiling windows that wrap around the room and overlook the garden, yard and pool area. Snuggle by the fire and watch the snow fly in the winter, or open windows and enjoy fresh breezes and birdsong in the summer. A large flatscreen TV is mounted on the wall above the mantel for watching movies.
At the end of the day, climb the stairs to the second floor primary bedroom suite (with an interior casement window that overlooks the great room below). The suite features a king bed with a premium Avocado mattress and luxury linens, and a newly-remodeled bathroom with a jacuzzi tub/shower.
There are two more bedrooms on the first floor: a guest bedroom with a full-size platform bed, and a children’s bedroom with 2 twin beds. The twin bedroom was the original entrance to the carriage house, and features a 2-story north-light window, cathedral ceiling and original barn wood paneling.
A second bathroom on the first floor is also newly-remodeled with terra cotta tiles and an oversize glassed-in shower.
Other amenities include a laundry room with side-by-side front-loading washer/dryer and a full-size freezer.
The grounds surrounding the house are landscaped with lush perennial gardens and pathways that lead to the heated in-ground pool, outdoor sitting areas, and a year-round stream that flows through the back of the property. The land on the other side of the stream is undeveloped and protected conservation land.
Walk to the end of your driveway and shared private lane and you are just a few blocks from the center of Woodstock, where you’ll find restaurants, cafes, galleries, boutiques, theaters and clubs. Drive up into the surrounding mountains and explore an extensive network of hiking trails throughout the Catskill Mountain Park. Head east to the Hudson River valley and discover the cultural attractions of the historic river towns and estates. Or just stay home and relax in your own private Woodstock retreat, and enjoy its peace and beauty!
POOL SEASON
The pool is open through late September, weather permitting. If we have an especially warm fall, it may remain open into October.
PETS
Well-behaved and crate-trained dogs are considered ~ please ask. Please note that dogs must be crated when left alone in the house. A $100/week pet fee per dog applies.
NO CAR NEEDED
Although Carriage House has private off-street parking for 3 cars, you don’t need a car to get here. You can simply ride the Adirondack Trailways bus from NYC or NJ and arrive at the Woodstock Village Green (just one block from the house) in only a few hours!
EASY TO CONTACT
We're happy to answer any questions you may have, either before booking or during your stay. We look forward to hearing from you, and welcoming you to Carriage House for a peaceful and relaxing getaway!

Second time staying at a property managed by these folks - everything is run perfectly and the property itself is amazing. Walking distance to town, private backyard with a great saline pool, a perfect, cozy getaway with my family, would love to stay there again

Exquisitely restored and furnished former carriage house, feels totally private with the yard backing onto a stream and nature preserve yet a 5 minute walk to shops and restaurants downtown. 10 stars.

The property is very nice and an oasis in the busy village in the summer. It was easy to social distance by the wonderful pool every day. But if you want to venture out its a short walk to shopping, restaurants, or hiking trials in nearby park. We enjoyed our two weeks here and would likely come back again.

I struggled with this review, as the house is in a great location and it is cute. The yard is large, fully fenced, and nicely landscaped. With that said, there were some definite issues with the house. I do not like writing this type of review, but feel that I need to so that others understand the house when thinking about the price that comes along with it. Immediately upon walking into the house, you smell a strong musty odor, and there was also incense burned prior to our arrival. Unfortunately, incense bothers me, and gives me a terrible headache. It took about 24 hours for both to dissipate, as running the AC seemed to help with the musty smell, but the back of the house (bedroom with twins and laundry area) still smelled quite bad. While I do not cook on vacation, we do snack, have drinks, and prepare meals for our dog. With that, the freezer is in the laundry room (making getting ice inconvenient), there were about 7 glasses (all the size of juice glasses), and no microwave (not listed in the description of the kitchen, but never even thought to check that). There were no less than 30 different wine glasses, but when drinking beer, soda, or water, an 8 oz glass is not ideal. The house is also just uncomfortable… the couch is like a brick, the stools at the kitchen island are horrible ,and the kitchen table chairs while comfy, are too low for the table. Some of the towels appeared to be a bit dirty, and they too smelled like incense, which made us run to the store for detergent to wash them. The washing machine (front loader) is also in need of a cleaning… the rubber gasket is full of mold. The house could also use a good cleaning and refresh – there were many cobwebs in the ceilings, corners, around the tv, etc… that we took down, we ran the vacuum, and the screen door is in need of repair (torn down the side). Beware of the sink in the master, there is no hot water, no water pressure, and when turned on sounds like off-tune bagpipes. The shower on the other hand, has plenty of hot water and pressure – super odd. It feels like no expense was spared when the home was renovated, given the appliances and fixtures, but there are some issues that need addressed with the property.
In case you are wondering, no we didn’t complain during the stay. We have done that in the past, and then had hours of our day spent with cleaning and repair crews in the home – not ideal while on vacation especially if you have a dog with you.
