Holiday rentals with a fire pit in Columbia County

We had the BEST TIME at this fantastic Lakeside house in Valatie!  The house itself has 3 good bedrooms – 2 large bedrooms upstairs with a nice bathroom and tub.  The downstairs has the other cute bedroom, another full bathroom,  a good sized kitchen open to a great and large living and dining area. The VIEW from the main room is stunning and was our ‘TV’ for the week.  The lake is just gorgeous!  It has a little dock with kayaks and plenty of nice seating and lounge chairs.  It’s great to have a full grass lawn !  The pups loved the house and the yard and the lake!  The house was super clean and roomy but cozy in it’s feel.  So many great little towns nearby – it was just the perfect house to get away from the city!  The community was chill, even tho it was Memorial Day weekend.  Thanks to Michael who was super responsive (not that we needed anything!) but if we had a question. Etc.  Thank you Michael ! We hope to be back for another visit !!!  

We had a wonderful stay at James and Lissy’s house! It was perfectly located for getting around the Berkshires. The house was clean, beautiful, and cozy. When we needed to communicate with James and Lissy they were incredibly responsive and helpful. Every year, my friends from high school and I meet up for a reunion in the Berkshires (we have been doing this annually), and the hope is to stay in this very Airbnb next year, if possible/ available! It was an exceptional Airbnb experience!

Alfredo's home was more peaceful than the photos could show. it was quiet, secluded and clean, inside and out. being close to stores and the town while having the feeling you're farther away from society was just what was needed for the stay.

Beautiful area and beautiful house – well-designed, spotless, and equipped with everything we needed. It looked even better in person than in the photos. The open family area was amazing and spacious. We also had a lot of fun exploring the farm and surrounding property. Definitely one of the loveliest Airbnbs we've stayed at. Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful stay at this location during my daughter’s graduation from Bard College. The location has beautiful views of the lake and the layout of the property was perfect for the family to gather and celebrate, while also giving everyone the space for their own quiet time or rest. I would definitely recommend this location and hope to have the opportunity to stay again.

We always have a great stay at Matt’s! The amenities are amazing and the view of the Hudson is unbeatable.

This property is beautiful! The house and amenities are actually just as nice in real and every detail was so thought out. Arp really has good taste and communicated well throughout our stay.

This is a comfortable home that is clearly loved and cared for by the owners, with all of the amenities you would want. It's a relief to come to an Air bnb that is more than a place to stay, but truly a home away from home.

This place was amazing, exactly like the photos. Whatever cleaning service they use is pristine, it felt like everything was brand new out of the box, not even a fuzz or spec in the bathroom or kitchen. I really appreciated that. The backyard is huge, and a nice unexpected surprise. It’s extremely private and dark at night so recommend getting there during daylight. Hudson is less than 20 mins away and there are great little spots like local 111 in the neighborhood. Had a lot of cooking dishware, also very appreciated. Over all absolutely loved my stay and will absolutely be booking again!

We loved the studio and felt right at home It was a perfect place to stay while exploring the Berkshires, close to both outdoor activities and the offerings of the town. We especially appreciated the beautiful view from the studio which enhanced rest and relaxation. Jill and Steve were great hosts. Highly recommend.

I enjoyed my stay at Kinderhaus loft. Chatham is a super cute town and this airbnb was walkable to shops and a few restaurants. The living area was super cozy.

Jonathan's place was exactly what we were looking for in a Hudson retreat. We needed to base ourselves somewhere in the Hudson valley region and the location was perfect. Being less than 10 minutes to the town of Hudson, and 15 to Catskill, it could not have been more convenient. The home itself was pristine and they clearly put a lot of thought into the design as it has been newly renovated. All of the appliances were top of the line (stovetops, technology, sonos speakers etc.). Yet it was still very inviting. The home is stocked with absolutely everything you need. In fact it was one of the best stocked Airbnb's we had ever stayed in, and we've stayed in over 50! Jonathan and his partner live downstairs and were incredibly sweet. They are also very knowledgable about the area and very communicative. We would definitely be happy to stay here again and for extended periods of time, it certainly felt like our own little home away from home.

Joe is an amazing host! Very warm, friendly and responsive. I love his place - it has a character (old beams), big comfortable rooms, nice garden on the backyard. My cats were welcomed - I appreciated it a lot, they also loved it and had long corridor to run around and lots of windows to look at. The location is very rural - basically in a forest (I saw 2 volchers eating a rabbit, hit by a car), yet not far from all the attractions of the Berkshire. Highly recommend this place!

We had a great say. Beautiful area. Tremendous lake which we enjoyed by kayak. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Nice sitting area outside and another on the front porch. We were here early June and so the eatery next store and another up the road were not open for the season quite yet. Great communication.

Beautiful environment and super welcoming hosts. A great experience!

Loved our stay, would stay again!

This was such a great location for a weekend getaway! The lake was so beautiful, the hot tub was amazing, and it was a private and relaxing place to spend the weekend. Olivia was great and gave very clear instructions on how to get there!

Really enjoyed our stay! Was perfect for our family to stay all in one place. Darin responded in a timely manner and was very helpful. Pool table was a great addition! Loved the location, it was beautiful & peaceful. We were disappointed we didn't see any bears :0) LOL

Nothing but great things to say about this Airbnb. The house was absolutely beautiful and so cozy. The kitchen was extremely well stocked with pretty much everything you need. The hosts were also incredibly helpful and responded right away whenever we had questions or issues with anything. Highly recommend this Airbnb. I hope to come back one day!

Great for a weekend away with my friends and I!!! Looks exactly like the pictures and was listed for an AMAZING price for everything that we got! Would totally come back and could not recommend enough!!!

The space is luxurious and stunning even more beautiful than the photos, so thoughtfully designed and really helped us feel at home at once. Matt and Sarah were so helpful whenever we had any questions. We had such a relaxing stay and feel so grateful to have been able to enjoy the space!

I loved this place. It was very large. Larger than it appeared in the photos. And the yard was huge! The dogs loved running around it. The neighbors were close enough to see that there was a house nearby, but far enough to not really see any people. And I heard no one, just an occasional dog bark. It was a beautiful location. Trees and hills and beautiful grass. The wood burning insert was fabulous. We had cozy evenings watching tv or a movie. Plenty of plates and cookware. I made dinner most nights. It is also close to so much! I really loved it! Hikes and shopping. Don’t miss the Farmers Market. Highly recommend

We had a great time here with our 9 month old baby. The pictures don’t do the house justice. Access to the lake for swimming and kayaking and the facilities (pools, beach, basket ball and tennis court) make this a great place for an active vacation. The house has everything you need to travel with a young child (toys, changing table, pack ‘n play and even black out shades). The towns of Athens and Coxsackie are a few minutes away and have decent food and drink options. We would love to come back!

We had the most amazing time at Ed's cabin! Our group was looking for a peaceful getaway, and this place delivered. Nestled in the woods with a beautiful view, the cabin was the perfect escape. It had everything we needed: firewood and supplies for a cozy fire, a fully equipped kitchen, dining area, hot tub, and more. The outdoor space was just as impressive, with a huge garden and plenty to explore. Ed was an excellent host—very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. I’d highly recommend this cabin, especially if you’re planning to spend most of your time on the property. That said, it's still close enough to the Catskills' main hiking spots. I’d come back in a heartbeat!
