The space
The light-filled home has 12-foot vaulted ceilings on the first floor, and a newly painted interior.
The completely stocked kitchen provides you with all your essentials for making a nice meal, inside at our dining table, on the kitchen island (which seats 2) or outside on the 3-season porch.
Spending time together as a family or with friends is easy with the open concept great room with a mini-split, steps to the huge porch and the downstairs large living room, which accommodates everyone for movie night on the spacious sectional sofa.
On the main floor, two bedrooms with mini-splits share a renovated bath with a walk-in shower with dual shower heads, (which easily accommodates 2), and a soaking tub (perfect after a day out hiking!). One bedroom has a king bed and the other has a queen bed.
The other bedroom is a king bedroom on the ground floor, which has its own flat-screen TV and an en-suite bath, with a standing shower. All bedrooms have plenty of space for your items and lots of natural light. Each guest receives towels and soap and each bath is outfitted with shampoo and conditioner.
Relax on the 14×28 porch with floor-to-ceiling screened windows, a large sitting area with TV and a dining area with a wrought iron table from Pam’s great grandparents.
Bask in the sun around our newly installed 14×28 in-ground pool in chaises or lounge chairs. The pool is heated to 83 degrees from 4 am until noon every day. From 6 until 9 pm the landscape lighting is on. Both the lounging area and the eating area have umbrellas.
Make s’mores around the large fire pit in our backyard while kicking back in the Adirondack chairs.
In town for an event? We have an iron and ironing board for your use.
Rainy day? There are a multitude of games, books and spaces to relax and unwind, together or in solitude.
Other special amenities include
– radiant heat
– large sunny outside terrace off the side of our house, under a 12×30 foot pergola on the ground floor (outside the living room)
– wet bar in the ground floor living room (perfect for bringing drinks out to the pergola space)
– 3 mini-splits throughout the house (bedrooms and open concept living/dining room)
– driveway parking easily for 4 cars
– spacious backyard with a new playset for children (2 swings, slide, clubhouse, ring bar)
– stone fire pit created with stones found throughout the property
– two gas BBQ grills (one on the pergola side and one outside the porch)
– our fantastic brand-new (June 2021) in-ground pool!
You have access to all our property and grounds, with the exception of our shed in the backyard and a locked mechanical room on the ground level.
We consider our house a special oasis in a quiet (cul-de-sac) setting, but only minutes to all that New Paltz and the amazing Hudson Valley has to offer. We have spent many years living in and renovating this ranch to our tastes, and taking advantage of the natural light that our property offers. We hope you enjoy our home as much as we do!
Our address is listed as Highland, but we are in the town of New Paltz and a 3-minute drive to the village, 5-minute drive to SUNY New Paltz, and you can access our home straight from the Trailways bus stop at the Thruway entrance if you choose to bring your bike or take a quick taxi to our place. Come enjoy your stay away from it all and take in the beautiful New Paltz area.
Guest access
Entire house except for the back of the ground floor (locked door) and one locked closet.

Guest Reviews
This house is wonderfulâitâs just as itâs pictured/described - even better! Pam and Marc are terrific hosts - they answer any question you may have within minutes and have really thought of everything that makes you feel welcomed and right at home- only better! From the minute we walked in, we were very pleased with the cleanliness and could see the care theyâve put into every detail. Everything you could want was here- all the creature comforts in the house including great AC, a fully stocked kitchen, beautiful downstairs family room, plus a huge screened-in porch, 2 fire pits, - and that pool is just fantastic! All that and less than 10 minutes to everything you need or want to do. I sound like an adâbut all true! My family and I canât wait to go back!!
Pam and Marcâs place was great. My family loved the pool and the toys and books kept my kids entertained. The place is clean and comfortable throughout. It was very comfortable and we felt at home. The toys, books, and even though it was hot we spent a lot of time on the porch. The pool was great. Hard to get my oldest to get out. We would definitely come back. Thanks for a great stay!
Such an amazing stay! Pam and Marc communicated with us throughout our stay and were on top of any questions we had. The pool and bonfire pit make this place a MUST!!
We had an outstanding stay at Pam and Marcâs house. Itâs very modern, super comfortable, full of great amenities (grill, swimming pool, fire pit, big garden, etc.) and very well equipped. We couldnât have asked for a better house for our family stay. Pam and Marc are also great communicators and very responsive!
