The Space:
This is a unique property unlike any other. We've designed it to host large groups seeking a private retreat in nature, but whether your group is big or small, the property is cozy and will never feel like too much. Play, hike, cook, swim, sleep, adventure, relax.... Whatever your heart desires, the options are endless.

There are multiple options for rentals here at Grateful Woods. We can accommodate groups of different sizes between our multiple dwelling units at different times of the year! We've lived in and renovated each and every unit on this property to specifically cater to your needs. No detail has been spared.

During peak season weekends (May-October), we only rent the whole property to one group at a time. For weekdays year round, as well as weekends between October-May, we will rent the units separately. Please inquire for more specifics.

Rates vary. Please inquire so we can better assist you.

Staying here will give you access to:

75 acres of woods and farm land to explore, miles of nature trails, ponds & a waterfall, farm animals (goats, cows, horses) & plenty of other wildlife, gorgeous sunset views, multiple fire pits, grills, fully stocked kitchens, luxury bedding, gardens, pool & hot tub, tons of activities such as archery, bad mitten, bocce ball, tether ball, corn hole, can jam, basketball, board games, puzzles, hammocks, row boat, paddle boat, fishing, bikes and so much more!

You will be secluded enough to feel a total escape from real life, but you will not be too remote. We are very close to any shopping necessities, restaurants, cute towns and more. We are also located just minutes from Minnewaska State Park, the Shawangunk Mountains, Mohonk Mountain Preserve and the breath taking Ashokan Reservoir.

We have Sonos speakers located throughout the property, as well as a variety of musical instruments for endless musical entertainment.

The options are endless.

Need more? Ask us about private chefs, cocktail classes, yoga or pilates, massages, stocking of food & bev prior to your arrival, a movie on the lawn, special occasion decorations and more. You dream it, we can do it.

Please inquire with ANY questions at all - Thank you!

Getting Around:
The property is located 2 hours from midtown Manhattan. There are 3 major ways to get to the property:

1) Car: let your GPS do all the work on this one.

2) Train: take the Metro North or Amtrak from Grand Central or the new Penn Station to Poughkeepsie or Rhinecliff. It's roughly a 1:45 min train ride plus a 45 min car ride from the station to the property. You should be able to schedule an Uber or Lyft ahead of time. If not, there will be taxis waiting.

3) Bus: take a bus from Port Authority directly to Kerhonkson. It's a 2.5 hour bus ride that drops you off roughly 5 min from the farm.

If you need a shuttle service either from the city or the train station, let us know and we can help out.

Interaction with Guests:
We have a log cabin on the property that we stay in from time to time. There is a chance that we might be on the 75 acre farm unless you request full privacy. If so, we will do our best to accommodate and give you ultimate privacy. We completely understand that you might be coming up to the country to get away and seek privacy - We promise, you will have that, whether we are here or not.

On the contrary, our passion is hosting and curating a unique stay above any other for our guests. If you want us to do all the planning, please don't hesitate to reach out.
