Family-friendly vacation rentals in New Paltz

This beautiful property has a special place in our hearts. We stayed in the A frame during COVID and we always wanted to come back. This time we stayed in the main house and it was phenomenal. Wish the weather was better for us to use the pool, but next time! It well worth the price. Only an hr from the city and it feels like a full vacation. Wonderful way to lose time time for a few days. We will be back!

Billy and Rhobin were so helpful and easy to communicate with. The house was so comfortable and peaceful. The property was lovely! 5 Stars all around! Thank you for a fantastic stay!

I stayed in this apartment for a month and loved it. The location is gorgeous, the apartment is a great size for the price, the hosts are just truly lovely people who made me feel totally welcome. You will hear the ceiling creak when they walk around above you in the main house and the dogs bark, but not alot and the owners are very quick to quiet them down. I slept so well there. I never felt awkward sitting outside admiring the flowers and the trees, even when Sherrill and Clark were going about their yard chores. I loved being greeted when I arrived and sent off when I left. I felt like I truly mattered as a guest and a person. This is what airbnb hospitality should be! Thank you!! I'd stay again and highly recommend.

Loved this little studio! If you’re doing anything at Mohonk preserve (we did Rock the Ridge), it’s minutes away from Testimonial Gateway and Ulster County Fairground. New Paltz is just down the road with stores, cafes, and more. The apartment is cozy but functional and the kitchen is setup well. Perfect for 2 people, couple or friends. Bonus — I rented an EV and was stressing about getting it charged but Franky offered to let me charge it overnight, which was a life saver!

Cozy home, on a beautiful property. The natural pool is really special, and we loved staying here. Hope to be back.

We had such a great stay at Eugene’s place! The house was perfect for our group — spacious, comfortable, and full of fun things to do. We especially loved the private theatre, the hot tub, and especially the sauna — such a great touch! The volleyball net was a hit, and there were tons of games in the closet that kept us entertained. The kitchen was well-stocked and roomy enough for us to cook meals for our large group, and there were plenty of different areas to hang out in, everyone could find their own space to relax. The towels were plentiful (huge plus) and having access to the washer and dryer came in handy during our stay. Eugene was a fantastic host — super friendly, very responsive, and just really helpful all around. We also got to enjoy a few deer sightings right in the yard, which felt magical. We visited the nearby alpaca farm and did the Beer Mountain hike, which was a nice outing. All in all, a wonderful stay. Would absolutely come back. Thank you Eugene!

We truly enjoyed our stay at Wilderkill Barn. Maria Cristina and William were exceptional hosts—warm, attentive, and genuinely committed to making our visit special. They went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The home was a haven, with a hot tub, sauna, pool, fire pit, pool table, and immersive sound and movie systems—all of which made our stay delightful despite the cold, dreary May weather. We can't thank them enough. ***That said, we feel it's necessary to address a serious issue with Airbnb itself that arose while booking this property, unrelated to the property itself. An unexpected tax was added after booking, and Airbnb has yet to provide a clear explanation. After years of loyalty, we were disappointed by their evasive and unhelpful customer support. This experience has made us reconsider using the platform in the future. We urge potential users to scrutinize all fees carefully and be aware that Airbnb’s support may be difficult to navigate if problems arise.***

Three friends met at this beautiful carriage house with the feel of a French chalet! We stayed two nights with varied weather conditions. The house, grounds and location was perfect. Hot tub was used and so relaxing. The surroundings were beautiful and peaceful. The host, Diane was very helpful and friendly. What host makes scones each morning and delivers them warm?! Visited the Ashokan Reservoir trail, Opus 40, and Woodstock. Recommend this home highly. You won’t be disappointed!

We had a great stay at BorisRungcheewan’s place. Check-in was easy, and the hosts sent us all the necessary information well in advance. The only minor challenge was finding the house—it’s set back from the road and located at the top of a long, steep driveway. I can imagine that arriving for the first time in the dark could be a bit tricky. The house itself was just as advertised: very private and quiet. The interior was comfortably furnished, and we especially appreciated the fireplace and the Bluetooth speaker. The two full bathrooms were also nice . The hot tub was easy to use, although a few of the jets didn’t seem to be working. The kitchen was well-stocked with pots, pans, plates, and glasses. The house is about 15 minutes from the Woodstock area and the nearest grocery store, so we’d recommend stopping to pick up any necessary provisions before checking in. Overall, we would absolutely return to BorisRungcheewan’s place for another stay.

We had a wonderful time at this place for our mini moon. It was relaxing, beautifully decorated, well stocked with everything you need! The hosts were very responsive. We would stay here again in a heartbeat! For anyone coming from NYC we stoped at Pho Tibet in New Paltz for lunch on the way home and the food was amazing!

Great Airbnb, I would highly recommend. I appreciate the flexibility on the check in and check out times. The kitchen was very well stocked as well.

My fiancé and I stayed at Lambs hill to celebrate our anniversary. We had the most wonderful time. The views are breathtaking. The wrap around deck with jacuzzi and hammock made our stay calming and serene. I loved seeing the horses and donkeys throughout the day. They made the experience even more special and unique. Charlotte was super responsive and accommodating. We took cabs to Main Street at night for dinner and drinks and it was so close and convenient. I left my heart in lambs hill and can’t wait to return one day.

Julie's place was the perfect winter getaway. The fireplace, hot tub and sauna warmed us and the very well-equipped kitchen enabled us to prepare great meals. The house was beautiful, with two living rooms for different activities and energy levels, a game room downstairs, a dining room with a large table and chairs, and comfortable furniture and beds throughout. Julie texted me to make sure that our every need was met. We had a snow and ice storm, and she had the driveway and walkways plowed, shoveled and sanded twice, and kept plenty of salt on-hand. We hope to return sometime in warmer weather so we can enjoy the pond, too.

The house is spacious and elegant. The wooded lot has a pretty creek a little way from the house. We took some walks through the snowy woods and roads beyond the house and could have kept going for a long time - the mountain is peaceful and beautiful. The owners live a few doors down and came by to help set us up before a major snow storm. We had a really nice time.

Linda is such a great host! She is SUPER organized from the very beginning giving us clear instructions about the check in, the rules at the house, leaving printed version of all of that in different sides of the house, and even to the way she organized and provided everything we ever needed at that house. And the house itself is soooo gorgeous and peaceful I felt right at home. The only flaw is that it has bad reception in the area since it is surrounded by woods. But Linda provided us with strong wifi in the house, so I guess that settled it.

It is clear Adam and Chrissy take care of this place like their own home. I cannot emphasize enough how wonderful this place is. Perfectly equipped, yet doesn’t feel cluttered. Cozy, tasteful, full of wonderful little details, clear instructions and good vibes overall. Location is amazing and perfect for days of reflection / retreat in the mountains. Has all you need in the kitchen, plenty of books, board games, movies, records, even Atari and an AMAZING outdoor spa. Best of all is the water stream running below: natural forest + running water sounds - not even headspace can give you this to perfection. Outdoor seating area also lovely. I felt at home from beginning to end. Hosts incredibly responsive and helpful. Can’t wait to return !

Donna's place was amazing! We knew we would love it from the pictures but were even more blown away when we walked inside. It was the perfect cabin with every amenity and more that you could want for a remote get away in the Catskills. We went up with our dog and loved every minute - will definitely go back for our next trip up!

Would absolutely stay again! Really loved the way they've updated the space but kept the classic touches of the house. Huge well appointed kitchen with everything you could need. Peaceful outdoor space with lots of privacy. And overall a very spacious house that feels like you could have a big group without getting in each others way. Ryan & Lauren were super on it. Will definitely recommend to friends.

Jane’s home is beautiful, quiet, and so relaxing. The area itself is wonderful and quaint and the home has everything you need and more. We sat out each morning on the front deck for coffee and each evening for a glass of wine, and ate dinner on the screened-in porch. Despite the temperatures reaching 90 degrees outside, the home remained very comfortable even without A/C. There were plenty of fans and the evenings were pleasantly cool. Jane is very friendly and helpful—stopped by on our first day to give us some wonderful local recommendations (our kids loved visiting a nearby apple orchard / restaurant). Honestly, you can’t ask for a better host. We already miss the place and would definitely return!

Peaceful and private cottage in the woods. Perfect for relaxing and enjoying the quiet. We saw deer and a bear. Screened in porch a plus for listening to the sounds of the stream as you take in the night air.

Beautiful home with a great view! Smooth and easy checking. Theresa was communicative and provided clear instruction. I had an amazing stay and will definitely book again for a getaway

Great place to stay in a really cute neighborhood with lots to do within walking distance.

If you live in the city and want to experience nature, choose this house. We really enjoyed our stay here! Sometimes you can even spot little animals in the backyard, like ducklings, kittens and otters. Highly recommended!

This cottage was very lovely, cozy, clean, and just a few minutes from the town of Woodstock, but very secluded and peaceful on a beautiful property. The home was exactly as described and had everything you could need for a short stay. I do recommend having 4-wheel drive and a car with good suspension to get up the gravel road leading to the house. Cayenne is a wonderful host - she was extremely kind and easy to communicate with. I would definitely stay here again!
