Wonderful Accommodations

Glen was very responsive to our request. Place was very clean and well stocked. We had a great time at the sheep and wool festival and the Calf Pen was the perfect place to stay. The outside patio was great for knitting and relaxing away from the crowds.

Fall weekend getaway

My husband and I stayed at the Calf Pen along with another couple. My husband and I had previously stayed at the Church on the same property and thought the Calf Pen might be better for four adults. It was great! We were in town for two days to see the airshow at the Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome and had a wonderful time. We'd stay here again in a heartbeat.

Great Location and Country Setting

Nestled at the end of a small suburban neighborhood this country compound of 3 rentals with the owner's home making a 4th, has a real farm and rural feel while being within 15 minutes of incredible historic sites in the Hyde Park area. The Calf Pen was well equipped, spotless, and had a very nice country feel. The owner was very accommodating with a checkout time adjustment, and very pleasant to see working about the property each day. We will be back !

My family and I stayed at the Calf Pen for Easter weekend and it was good experience. The duplex house is cozy and spacious. The property host, which lives right next door was very friendly and attentive during our stay there. They have fresh eggs, honey, and milk.

Updated house in quiet location

Our family stayed here for a few days, and it was really a perfect place to host a gathering of extended family members. Glen was so accommodating of our requests, and we really appreciated his flexibility. This vrbo is perfect for family staying who need a large kitchen and want to have outdoor gatherings on the deck. We will definitely be staying again with Glen!

Week at the Calf Pen

My husband and I enjoyed our time at this rental home. It is rustic and comfy. We were able to enjoy a nice barbecue on the deck. Our dogs enjoyed the backyard too. The host Glen was very attentive and kind. We plan on returning sometime in the future.

a delightful weekend away

The Calf Pen is a lovely recently-renovated inside space with an expansive outdoor space. There are sweet touches like little samples of local honey and syrup, fresh milk, and loads of maps/guides to their favorite local restaurants, farms, and hikes. Glen, the host, was very friendly and helped us learn how to work the fireplace. We will definitely be looking to book with Glen again soon!!

Home on the Farm

We stayed her with our dogs during the NY Sheep and Wool Festival. The owner, Glen was very helpful and responsive to questions. The property was clean and had the amenities that we expected. They even had samples of honey and other farm grown items to try, such as eggs laid by the chickens on the property! The location was easy to get to Rhinebeck and Poughkipsie!

Wonderful Hudson Valley Stay

The calf pen was wonderful. Historic area and a prefect location to other great towns.Tucked away and surrounded by beautiful trees. The fall leaves made the trees that much more beautiful. Glen was very welcoming. Farm fresh eggs, milk and honey. He even accommodated us last minute to arrive early. We can’t wait to come back!

Great country property!

We were looking for a nice quiet place to call home near Hyde Park and Poughkeepsie where family lives so we could visit easily. This was more than perfect! Glen was very hospitable yet we had privacy and a beautiful scenic property to relax at. I loved seeing the chickens in the yard and all the beautiful trees. The refrigerator had a dozen fresh eggs and milk already stocked and there were honey and maple syrup samples for us as well. It was a great experience.

Rental 8/18-27

I had a wonderful 9 day stay at the Calf-pen. Glen, the host was available but not intrusive. The Calf-pen is very convenient to 9G and 9. A quiet, private location but not isolated. My favorite room was the kitchen. Very large with absolutely everything you could ask for, large side by side LG refrigerator with 2 freezer drawers, dish washer, gas stove. Lots of glassware (wine and water), Cuisinart chopper, knife set and a great (easy) wine opener. Three of us were able to prepare dinner and not be in each other's way. The floors are wood, no carpeting, a big plus for me and my dog. The bathrooms are very nice, all new tile, with lots of towels. The house has AC and heat units. I only used the AC one night as the house stayed very comfortable most days/nights. I certainly look forward to staying there on my next visit to the area.
