4 Br Private Vacation Home Vacation Rental In Saugerties, New York

The Sanctuary @ Clove Church is where rustic meets modern in a one-of-a-kind 1890'a church house, perfectly situated where the Catskills meet the Hudson River Valley. Warm yourself next to the wood stove as you watch bright colored light dance across the room from the original stained glass windows. After shooting a few hoops on the indoor basketball hoop (!), relax your muscles by sitting in the infrared sauna. In Summer head outside to enjoy smores around a fire pit under a starry sky.
The space:
The house consists of two distinct areas. The first is a large 3 season open area with a basketball hoop, heavy bag, infrared sauna and a separate yoga/meditation room. You can even hook up your relaxing playlist to the sauna's built in speakers. The other area is the main living space consisting of 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, country kitchen, dining area and office nook. One of the bedrooms with queen bed is located on the ground level. The other 3 bedrooms are upstairs with two having their own entrance which are connected by a large room with twin-over-full bunkbeds (perfect for families). The master bedroom has a king bed and the other bedroom has a double bed and desk. The upstairs bathroom is, quite simply, a work of art with amazing tile work in an large, albeit quirky, open plan bathroom. The downstairs bathroom has unique stone floors taken from the onsite quarry and a rustic wood framed bathtub and sink. The cozy living room has a roaring hot wood stove where you can relax reading a book or enjoy watching the Alexa enabled TV with Netflix, Amazon, etc apps included. Outside you have a raised flat yard with a tree swing, chairs surrounding a fire pit and loungers to enjoy the mountain views by day and star filled skies at night. The Annex, located next to The Sanctuary, is also available to rent. Please message to inquire about renting both properties.
Location:
The location of The Annex could not be more ideal. It's the perfect home base to explore the Catskills and Hudson Valley. The nearest grocery store is 3.4 miles (7 minutes). 2 miles away is the surreal Opus 40 sculpture park that features live music picnics in spring, summer and fall. Everyone knows the name "Woodstock" but this cute picturesque town is more than tie-dye and great local music. It's home to some of the best upstate restaurants including mind blowing cuisine of Red Onion, Silvia and Cucina, as well as the quaint Brooklyn-esque vibe of Shindig. Not to be slept on, Saugerties has it's own stand out restaurants including Miss Lucy's Kitchen, Black Eyed Suzie's and The Dutch Ale House to name a few. If hiking and being outdoors is your thing (of course it is!) then head out to the endless amount of hiking trails the Catskills has to offer. Very nearby are Overlook Mountain and Indian Head Wilderness that has some of the most beautiful scenery in NY State. Just a short 10 minute drive , you can explore beautiful Hudson River Valley where you'll find the unique Saugerties Light House. In addition from May-Sept, Saugerties is home to the hugely popular HITS equestrian series featuring the nation's best riders. In winter strap on snow shoes or head up to ski Hunter Mountain which is a mere 30 minute drive or 40 minutes to Windham. If that's not enough, the super happening city of Kingston is 20 minutes by car. A sudden influx of renowned chefs has put this city on the map that already has an array of hip coffee shops, chic home design shops like Exit 19 and antique stores galore. Grab a table at the innovative newish restaurant Wilde Beest, then stroll over to Stockade Tavern to sip on cocktails mixed by absolute geniuses. And I have yet to mention live music. You are in the heart of where America's most iconic musicians made their mark including Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix, Joni Mitchell and The Band. Speaking of The Band, Levon Helm Studios in Woodstock has unforgettable music events/recordings/shows by everyone from Emmylou Harris to Lake Street Dive. Of course there is much, much more such as historical buildings in Kingston and the legendary Woodstock music venues like Colony and Bearsville Theater and the super cool town of Hudson (30 mins) but these are only a few of the many reasons we fell in love with this place and we are proud to share it with you!

Located in Saugerties, this vacation home is in the mountains.
