Renovated 1850's Cottage on Storm King Mountain

Nestled in the Hudson Highlands, The Storm King Mountain House sits on a secluded 4 acres with a huge patio deck and a path into the Storm King Mountain Trailhead. The house is right next to West Point, Cornwall-on-Hudson, the Hudson River, and centered between the Hudson Highlands and Black Rock Forest. Our house is perfect for any weekend getaway or a vacation with family and friends. We are a quick 1-hour drive from New York City.

Check us out on IG @upstategetaways

Before booking, please be aware of our additional fees for guests over 4 to cover maintenance, cleaning and upkeep on the property.

Up to 2 dogs are allowed for your stay, but we do charge a fee given additional cleaning and maintenance on the home.

Only about 1 hour from NYC and nestled on top of a mountainside, The Storm King Mountain House sits on 4 acres of wilderness and has direct access to the Storm King Mountain trailhead. Right out the front yard, there's a natural waterfall flowing most of the year and a firepit that's always open. There are additional trails from the house that overlooks the Hudson River and Newburgh Beacon Bridge. There are tons of activities right in our backyard including hiking, fishing, swimming, kayaking, snowshoeing, and more. If you’d prefer to stay at home you can relax in the sunroom or in front of the woodstove, grill on the patio, watch TV, listen to music, make a fire outside, or chill with some board games. Please note the outdoor sauna is still under construction and is closed currently.

Three floors, four bedrooms—on the 1st floor we have a full kitchen, living room with Sonos speakers, a dining room, and a working wood stove. The bedrooms on the 2nd floor are one king, one queen, and two full-size beds, The final bedroom is on the 3rd floor and sports a queen bed. We have 3 separate living rooms on each floor to hang out in, including a Sunroom. Guests will find the home stocked with all the necessary amenities including towels, linens, kitchen basics, and toiletries.

The property includes a grill on the patio, a full Sonos music system and record player, and tons of board games to play. You can also warm up next to our fire pit/fireplace inside or outside.

Guests will be able to access all parts of the property and house, excluding the outdoor Sauna as it is under construction.

We are available via phone, text, or through the Airbnb application at any point during your stay.

The Storm King Mountain House is steps from Storm King State Park, Storm King Adventure Tours, and the Art Center. We are nestled right in the town of Cornwall-on-Hudson.

The property is truly unique, sitting in the woods and surrounded by wilderness including a waterfall, and many trailheads.

We are minutes drive from West Point, Cold Spring, and close to the Beacon train station (Hudson line), which goes to and from NYC every hour. Other close attractions include Bear Mountain and Newburgh.

We recommend a car to get to the house, but there are a ton of things to do within walking distance. Please see our guidebook for more activities.

Please be very careful parking and try to use the lower driveway. If you need to use the upper driveway, make sure you always look carefully while backing out. There is a blind spot and cars tend to go fast down the road.

Note: All Holiday weekends require a 3-night minimum to book. Due to higher demand and costs, we are unable to accommodate the shorter stay on these dates.

A key for the front door to your right will be accessible in the lockbox if required. Please always return the key to its original location.

THERMOSTATS AND HEAT
There are 4 thermostats in total. One on the 2nd and 3rd floors, and 2 on the first floor in the kitchen and dining room.

Please leave thermostats at 55 degrees when not in use.

There are tons of outdoor activities, many right in the backyard: hiking, climbing, fishing, swimming, cornhole, kayaking, lawn games, snowshoeing, and more.

STORM KING STATE PARK & HUDSON HIGHLANDS
Tons to do including hiking, swimming, kayaking, boating, and more. Directly out the house is the trailhead for the Storm King Mountain Trail.

HIKING & SNOWSHOEING
Download All Trails to see all the trails in the area. There are a ton, but here are some of our favorites:

Storm King Mountain Trail: Right out the front door and a must-do. A semi-strenuous hike uphill, but well worth it in the end. The hike leads to Butler Hill, which is a must see. About 1-2 hours round trip depending on which path you go.
Black Rock Forest: A longer trail that starts up the road towards highway 9W. Cross under the highway to the left for access to the Hill of Pines Trailhead and White Oak Road, leading to many ponds and lakes. Could be an all-day hike depending on which paths you go.
Bear Mountain Loop Trail: About 3.8 mile moderate loop. Very popular.
Breakneck Ridge: A popular hike, and a short drive away.
Perkins Memorial Tower: a 3.8 mile out and back trail.
Anthony's Nose via Camp Smith Trail: a 6.4 mile out and back trail.

SWIMMING
You can swim in the Bear Mountain Pool, or in Hessian Lake in the summer months. Or if you’re feeling adventurous, you can hike into the Black Rock Forest and find a pond to swim in. Both are a 5 minute drive from the house, or if you’re feeling lively, a couple hours hike.

Great service, loads of complementary extras, close to hiking trails
We enjoyed our time at Storm Kind Moutain - hiked, went to Lego-Land, and Splash Country. Everyone loved the dining room table (as long as it looks and the first place we've stayed where the table fit the family). The opportunity to bring pets was also a huge plus. The hosts were super communicative, accommodating and responsive. The house was stocked with tp, paper towels, and soap/shampoo/etc. The only thing that keeps me from providing a 5 is that some areas (kitchen, showers, for example) are brand new and others are in need of attention (outside furniture, downstairs couch, one of the kids beds). The house may be a work in progress - and if so, I would definitely visit again and provide the 5 the place and hosts deserve.

Best Wedding Weekend Ever
We had an amazing stay at this storm king property. Hosts were beyond communicative as we had to coordinate a few outside vendors come in to use to get ready for our wedding party. All together the house was perfect to catch up with college friends and take wedding photos and really set the tone for a festive weekend in the Hudson Valley. Already thinking of when we could book again!

Hello heaven!
Just an hour from New York City is a magical home perched near the Hudson and kissing distance of Storm King hosted by Amy and Mike. From the first warm welcome message by our host, to the smell of fresh homemade pizza baked by our best friend in the immaculate kitchen as we arrived, we knew we found something special. Little did we know how special. Past the spacious deck, overlooking the beautifully designed rotunda of the fire pit, is your own private waterfall. Needless to say, it’s a quiet wonderland for friends and family to celebrate special times, as we did. Thank you Amy and Mike for sharing your home with us!
