From the bedroom and living room there are big sliding doors onto a large deck with amazing views of the lake with a large table, chairs, and lounge chairs, there is another 3 tiered deck enow with a fire-it, grill ad lounge chairs. Two docks for swimming into the lake and a gazebo to enjoy the beauty of the Landscape. There are solar panels on the roof. The house has 2 bathroom, one full and one half, there is a hairdryer, a washer and dryer in the basement. There is excellent WiFi and a smart tv. The kitchen has stainless steel appliances, and granite counter tops. Coffee drip, keurig, nespresso machine, milk foamer, toaster, water keddle are on the counter top. There is an iron and board (basement)in one of the large closets and hangers and plenty of storage space for clothes. Heating and cooling is regulated with a thermostat and there are separate heaters in each room, central air conditioning. The land around the house is beautiful with may areas to sit, benches and hammock , about an acre right on the water. A tandem kayak, paddle board and kayak is available for water excursions and there is a row boat that accommodates 4. I have life jackets, 2 adult, 2 children. The beautiful cedar dock gets you into the water, best entrance is the dock behind the gazebo to the right of the property, or just hanging out at the water, there is a daybed right next to the dock, just below the houses at the water. Parking is in front of the house and there is additional parking on a lot next to the house. The magic is in the light and the restful energy of the house. We do our best to use eco friendly soap and cleaning supplies, it is important to us that the house is clean energetically and dirt wise. We care about sustainability and respect of nature and do not want to harm especially children or pets, that is why we do not use any kind of poison inside or outside the house, for that reason please forgive the possibility of a bug or an ant. thank you. The house is very well located between New Paltz and Kingston, there are many amazing restaurants and stores, Woodstock and Rhinbeck are only a few minutes more or you can enjoy sitting at the water and chill. I decorated the house with my art. Fabric sculptures and paintings. The house is perfect for 2 and may be 5. The living room is small. The kitchen table pulls out. the water quality of the lakes and rivers upstate can vary this is mostly a problem in the drought season end of July, when there is limited water flow. I test the water regularly during this time and in general to make sure its safe, I swim in it, we all do ! The water feels soft and fresh. All my tests came out good this year 2022, meaning no contamination, testedJuly 2023 no contamination, 6/6/24 , 7/18/24, 6/18/25, 7/19/25, test shows no contamination of ecoli
