A Modern Vacation House with a Unique History

This vacation house was previously one of the original Hudson River estates. It was built for the original owner, Dr. Gustavus A. Sabine, who was a friend of Frederic E. Church. Church was the Hudson River School painter who created Olana, now a state historic site and museum, featuring a stunning landscape of art and nature. 

After several subsequent owners, it was purchased and renovated in 2002 and opened as a luxury Inn in the fall of 2003. Fast forward to 2020, it was reinvented once again, as a beautiful guest house offering a unique vacation rental for families, friends, couples and work mates to come together and enjoy the whole house.

With unique furnishings, original architectural details and beautiful views of the Catskill Mountains and Hudson River, it was created with your comfort in mind. Central heat and air, four gas fireplaces and seven spacious bedrooms, each with it’s own en suite bathroom, with walk-in jetted showers and several have whirlpool tubs too.

There are two large living rooms to gather around the fireplace, watch a movie, play board games or relax with a good book. The well-equipped kitchen offers prep tables, all appliances and kitchen tools to make fabulous meals. And the large, light-filled dining room has a long table and chairs to share a meal family style.

A large wraparound front porch, back patio with deck, and sweeping front lawn offer many outdoor areas to relax and unwind. Whether its watching the sunset with a glass of wine, dinner on the back patio, gathering on the Adirondack chairs, badminton on the back lawn or just walking in nature, there are so many ways to enjoy the great outdoors here.
