About this cottage rental
Kick back and relax in this calm, stylish freshly renovated historic cottage. Idyllically located atop Breezy Hill, enjoy commanding views and convenient drives to both Hudson and the Berkshires. As part of Breezy Hill Farm, you have access to nearly 50 acres of grounds, gardens, and trails. Walk onto catamount, and gaze at an unobstructed 50 mile view of the Catskills from the property. Two bedrooms offer two queen beds. Full kitchen. Laundry. Well lit office. Your perfect weekend getaway.
The Cottage started its life as a poultry house. Built in the mid 1930`s, it is one of the only surviving structures from the days of the original Van Deusen family farm. Experience the comfort of a newly finished renovation along with the wonky charm of the original farm building.
Inside, you will find yourself surrounded by the things that make you feel like you`ve arrived at home. Sink into a leather club chair with a book from the bookcase. Put a record on the phonograph. Open the French doors to the deck and let in the mountain breeze.
The main space is an open concept with a well-proportioned kitchen. Large quartz island. Viking Stove. New stainless steel refrigerator & Dish washer. Two sets of French doors open onto a spacious deck for seamless indoor-outdoor living. A covered porch shelters one half of the deck where there is a comfortable seating area overlooking the boughs of the Japanese and Red Maple trees, and the valley beyond.
There are indoor, and outdoor dining areas. A new Weber gas grill anchors the end of the deck.
The living area provides a large sofa, two leather club chairs, a smart tv, and plenty of reading material.
A separate office adjoins the kitchen through a pocket door. There are two additional XL twin bunk beds in this space as well.
Next to this is the butler`s pantry where the laundry, microwave and additional kitchen storage is located. Beyond the pantry is a mud room and the back entrance to the cottage which leads to the brick walk and the back gardens. Lots of storage for coats and skis.
There is one bathroom. Heated marble floors. Double vanity marble sink. Walk in shower.
Two bedrooms provide two queen beds at the opposite end of the cottage from the office bunks.
During your stay you have access to the cottage and the immediate surrounding lawn.
Because you are a guest of Breezy Hill Farm, you also have access to some adjoining areas. There is an extensive trail system in the woods behind the cottage, as well as the meadows on the opposite side of the main house.
Across the road, you will find cutting gardens and a pond with a floating dock. It is fully stocked, but please do not fish it. You may swim at your own risk. There is no life guard.
The property continues beyond the pond and up the mountain. You can hike all the way up to Catamount if you like. You will end up on Sidewinder, the ski run. You can continue up the mountain to the South Taconic trail and on over into that trail system. Spectacular views from the top of Catamount.
Please remember that this is a working estate. There are other families occupying the main house and its wings. Please keep their privacy in mind, and avoid those areas closest to them.
There is also a service garage across the road. Generally, there will be grounds keepers and mechanics working on a variety of projects there. They will be happy to help if you need assistance, but please also respect their privacy as they go about their work.
Should you need anything during your stay, please contact me directly. I will be happy to help, or will send someone who can. I will provide my contact information upon arrival.
Disclaimers:
-Cancellation Policy:
We strictly follow the cancellation policy selected at booking. Airbnb offers travel insurance, which we recommend if you’re concerned about unexpected events.
-Alterations:
Reducing nights from your reservation is subject to the cancellation policy and may not be approved. Extensions are almost always welcome, though last-minute requests may require cleaner confirmation.
-Regular Maintenance:
Essential services, such as lawn care, snow removal, pool/hot tub cleaning (where applicable), and pest control, may occur during your stay. These vendors follow a regular schedule, though days and times can vary slightly. We kindly ask that you allow them to complete their work quickly so you can enjoy the rest of your day.
-Damage:
If something is damaged, please let us know right away. We value honesty and will work with you to find a fair resolution, whether the damage is minor or significant.
-Wildlife:
Our homes are often in rural areas, so you may encounter insects (bees, spiders, flies), small animals (squirrels, raccoons), and occasionally larger wildlife (deer, bears). Please be prepared for nature during your stay and remember they’re more afraid of you than you are of them.

Outages can happen in this area due to weather or other factors. Because they are out of our control, we do not provide refunds for these interruptions, but we’ll do our best to help you work around them.
