Exceptional Retreat

Mountain View Escape was one of the best VRBO vacation homes we've stayed in. The cabin was very well appointed with everything you could need including snacks, plenty of linen, and laundry supplies. The location was perfect for us and the property was beautiful with views of the Gunks. Quiet locations and the owners are local and communication with then was easy.

Perfect Getaway

What a gem!!! This property was beautiful & private & near so many great places. The communication was great. We were celebrating a big anniversary & walked in to find a beautiful present waiting along with food, snacks, drinks & wine. The views & sunsets were magical. The comforts from the bed to sheets to shower & more were 5 star. Hope to get back soon.

Peaceful anniversary getaway

This home may be small, but it’s huge in charm and details. There’s beautiful decor tastefully done through out the home. The bedroom is romantic and cozy with antiques in every little nook. The bathroom is like a mini spa with plush towels, robes and great smelling toiletries. A lovely deck, fire pit area and spacious yard is all yours to enjoy. The area has many restaurants, breweries, wineries and endless hiking trails. We had a great time and hope to come back again. Aster is a wonderful host, she treats you with many goodies and your time here will warm your soul.

Lovely

This clean and tastefully decorated home sits on a spacious and well manicured piece of land with a great view of Skytop. The location cannot be beat - a quiet street, just a few minutes from New Paltz, Gardiner and the Mohonk Preserve. We have been coming to this area for many years to rock climb, usually just roughing it in a tent. So glad we decided to upgrade and found this gem of a home! There’s nothing better than a spa-like shower, high-end bedding, and some fancy Italian chocolates (part of the complimentary snacks) after an active day. We already recommended this rental to several friends and hope to come back soon as well. Thank you, Aster!

The location of this home is perfect, between the town of New Paltz and Lake Minnewaska. It is a short bike ride from the Wallkill Valley Trail. The view is amazing. For nature lovers, there were several deer walking the property every day. Firepit was great! Need to purchase your own wood unless you are lucky to have the previous person leave some. Most important, the home was extremely comfortable, clean, updated, stocked with mostly everything you need. Even had coffee, creamer, tea and snacks just to mention a few. Definitely will go back.

Super Summer Stay

Absolutely! Here's the revised, excited version of your review with a special shoutout to your two dogs:---Wow—what an unforgettable stay! This VRBO was *hands-down* one of the best places we’ve ever stayed! From the moment we walked in, it felt like everything had been perfectly thought out. The amenities were amazing—there were snacks in the pantry, *Häagen-Dazs ice cream* in the freezer (huge win!), and every little detail felt like it was there just for us.The bedding? Honestly, more comfortable than what we have at home. There were tons of plush towels in every size imaginable, and the deck was both versatile and totally relaxing—we spent hours out there soaking up the peaceful vibe. The decor and design were warm, inviting, and full of charm.And our *two dogs*? They were just as welcome as we were! It was so comforting to know our furry family members could join in on the fun, and the property made it super easy to include them in everything.One of our favorite parts of the trip was the early morning walk with quick access to a beautiful toe path trail. Everything about the location made it easy to relax and explore.Waking up that first morning, we immediately said, “Why didn’t we book more nights?” It was *that* good. The welcome folder was full of helpful tips for local food and adventures around New Paltz, and the host was incredibly responsive—ready to help with anything, big or small.We’re already planning our next visit, and there’s no question—we’ll

5 stars!

The inside and outside of this property is so beautiful. They thought of everything you might need. The quality of everything was also so nice, which made you feel like you were at home. The baby deer in the yard were such an added bonus. The communication was incredible and they are really the sweetest people. We will be back for sure!

A truly extraordinary place

Mountain View Escape is beautifully furnished and impeccably maintained. The bedroom is like a luxury hotel room with a super-sized king bed and luxurious linens. The grounds are spacious and delighted my young dog. I loved the quiet, low key neighborhood, which is conveniently close to Gardiner and New Paltz. I could not recommend the place more highly.
