Une vie à la montagne en toute décontraction près de Minnewaska | La maison de vos rêves dans les Gunks

Escape to your private nature retreat at Dream House — a cozy, artfully curated home perched on the scenic slopes of the Shawangunk Ridge, just minutes from Minnewaska State Park and the dramatic Stony Kill Falls. Surrounded by forest and sky, this peaceful two-bedroom hideaway is the perfect basecamp for hiking, climbing, creative work, or quiet reconnection.

The home blends rustic charm with modern comfort and boutique hospitality. Inside, you’ll find two serene bedrooms with plush queen beds and premium bedding for deep rest. A handcrafted L-shaped couch, built by local artists, anchors the living room — perfect for conversation by the wood-burning stove. A hallway futon offers extra sleeping space for larger groups. The fully stocked bathroom features a walk-in shower with stone-look tile, warm wood paneling, and natural body products by Puracy.

The kitchen, with a forest-facing window, invites home-cooked meals and long, slow mornings. We provide essentials including salt, pepper, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, high-end coffee and tea, plus incense, essential oils, and a humidifier to elevate the sensory experience.

Dream House isn’t just a place to sleep — it’s designed to help guests slow down and feel connected. You’ll find original artwork by Ilias Muratov and a meaningful library filled with reflective reads. Thoughtful touches throughout the space reflect our approach to hospitality: clean, high-quality, and always a little magical.

Step outside and you’ll find two outdoor porches for sipping, stargazing, or simply breathing deeply. The covered front porch welcomes quiet mornings, while the back porch opens toward the forest for a more secluded vibe. Solar lights and wooden signage add subtle charm and help you find your way home in the evening.

We’ve hosted thousands of guests over the years — creatives, couples, adventurers, and families — and many return year after year. Whether you're spending the day exploring Minnewaska’s lake trails, tasting local wine, or curled up with a book, Dream House is built to support your journey.
