Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Shawangunk

A truly magical escape. This sacred treehouse was absolutely perfect - peaceful, stunning, and deeply rejuvenating. Rob and Roberta were the kindest, most thoughtful hosts I’ve ever encountered on Airbnb. Their warmth made the experience even more special. From sunbathing on the rocks and meditating in the grass, to yoga overlooking the water and cooking local organic meals - every moment was magic. Already planning my return. Thank you, Roberta and Rob!!

We stayed at Agatha’s house for two nights. Her house was clean, well stocked, modern and very spacious…just as described. We had planned to visit the state park near the house but it rained the day we were visiting. We salvaged our stay by visiting New Paltz (10 minutes away) for dining and we visited a large antique shop there as well. If you’re looking for an amazing Italian meal, check out Lombardo’s less than a minute from Agatha’s. The food was five star and Antonio, our waiter was excellent!

It's hard to choose my favorite part of our stay at the Nest... it was absolutely beautiful, uniquely constructed with a really peaceful energy. I felt that the intention to create a lovely space was not only executed but the positive intention stayed with the home. Everything was clean and in working order, comfortable, spacious. Kristin was very responsive and proactive, and mostly very friendly. We enjoyed exploring the home and the decor from different countries. The surroundings were private and so green and lush. Birds through the big open windows, thunderstorm - perfect... Exploring Minnewaska and Mohonk Preserve was awesome and New Paltz is super cute. I've been to the area once before but got a better snapshot of it all this time. We would love to come back! Thank you so much!

This house was perfect for our needs and centrally located for our outings. David was extremely responsive and helpful throughout our stay. We highly recommend this home!

We were extremely pleased with Shinto and his house. The house and the surrounding area were more beautiful than the pictures could capture. Shinto was a very accommodating and I couldn’t ask for a better host. Will definitely be returning asap!

We were only at Sylvia’s house for one night, but it was a lovely stay. The house was warm and inviting with plenty of space. The loft bedroom was perfect and very comfortable. The shower is fantastic. We would definitely stay here again on another trip to New York.

The house was spotless, well equipped and located in a beautiful area. Close to hikes, bike rides and lovely out doors. The hot tub looked inviting but we were busy with family and did not use it. There is no AC but the ceiling fans in each room kept the temperature reasonable for the 90 degree day. Hopefully I will be staying again when visiting family in the area .

**★★★★★ Perfect Family Getaway!** Marci's Napanoch home exceeded all expectations for our family trip! She epitomizes hospitality - greeting us with complimentary wine and thoughtful snacks (even checked for allergies). The home is spotlessly clean, beautifully renovated, and incredibly comfortable. Waking to Shawangunk Mountain sunrise views was breathtaking! The fully-equipped kitchen with stainless appliances and cozy bedrooms with comfortable mattresses provided everything we needed. Marci stayed in touch without being intrusive, and the location is ideal - peaceful nature setting yet convenient to stores and hiking trails. This felt like a true home away from home thanks to Marci's exceptional care. We're already planning our return visit! Highly recommended!

Cute, cozy, clean, and super close to the bike trail! Perfect stay for a weekend exploring the towns along the trail.

Ami’s place was great! Stayed for my birthday and was surprised with a delicious tres leche cake upon my arrival! The view was incredible, amenities were amazing, overall it was everything I hoped for and more. Thanks Ami!

Nichole’s place was perfect for crashing for a night after a birthday party nearby! We were very comfortable and all necessities were there.

Our group went on a hiking trip to Beacon, and this was a nice stay, though about 20+ minutes to town. But we didn't mind the drive! It felt very safe and the second floor of the farmhouse was a peaceful retreat! The hosts were super responsive. The house was clean, beds were very comfortable, and the house was full of books and character! You can tell the hosts put a lot of love in decorating, making each space feel thought through and unique. The 2.5 bathrooms was nice for our group of 4 ladies! Thanks again!

We had a great time here! It was clean and comfortable, with a perfect location - close to both downtown New Paltz and the Gunks. It was lovely to have tea and coffee in the morning while watching rabbits, birds and deer in the backyard. Our host was responsive and had great suggestions for restaurants and activities. Highly recommend!

Miryan's home is exactly as described, she was a wonderful host and went above and beyond any expectations you could have. It was a pleasure to stay at her home.

Worth every penny. Lisa was super responsive, the space was so welcoming and the surroundings were gorgeous. It was exactly what I was looking for in a little home away from home getaway.

Thank you to Heidi for hosting my family in her beautiful Airbnb. They went to New York to visit a sick relative and she made their stay a welcomed retreat from the hospital. If we ever need to go back to this area of New York we will definitely ask to stay at this Airbnb. Thank you again for your hospitality.

Beautiful gem, fantastic hosts. Wouldn’t change a thing. Thank you!

Perfect location right next to the mountain. You could tell Kristof put a lot of thought into the unit. Room was clean with all the amenities you need (and some more in case you forget). He was super responsive no matter what time of day. Check in / out was seamless and private parking in the hotel was vital. Will DEFINITELY stay here again if we come back to the mountain!!

I enjoyed my stay here! Gorgeous condo with an absolutely breathtaking view. Decided to stay here for my friends wedding and it couldn’t have been a more perfect spot. Thank you to Paul and family for allowing me to stay at your home.

Host was responsive, place was tidy and instructions to get in and out are very clear. Place had an adequate lot as well and is also very peaceful

Cozy apartment, walking distance from the water front. Had a great weekend getaway.

It is a great location, with plenty of things to do in the immediate vicinity. The unit was quiet, clean, comfortable, and provided everything I needed for a week long stay. The owner was very responsive to any query, and I did not have any issues with the unit during my stay. I'd work with Henry again for a future stay in Vernon, NJ.

We really enjoyed a night at the Cozy Condo! Fabiola was very responsive and helpful! The place really was very cozy and clean. It was exactly as listed and pictured. It’s decorated so cheerful and uplifting! Really nice place! Thanks Fabiola!!

Dan’s place is cozy, comfortable and just minutes away from Mt. Beacon in one direction and ten minutes away from Main Street in the other direction. The kitchen is stocked with cooking essentials, though there are so many delicious restaurants nearby- the best of both worlds! The bed was extremely comfortable and the jetted bathtub was a huge bonus. I genuinely relaxed there, which is a rarity for me. Thanks so much, Dan!
