Description
The Black Walnut Farm is an idyllic country retreat tucked into a hidden corner of charming Saugerties, New York (100 miles north of NYC, about a 2-hour drive/train/bus ride). Situated on 34 acres of open meadows and forested woodland, the old stone house is a piece of living history: built in 1747 by Dutch colonists, it was one of the first 100 structures to be built in the county.
The property has everything you want in a country retreat: original wide-plank floors, two woodburning fireplaces and an outdoor fire pit, circa 1926 cast iron clawfoot tub in the main suite bathroom, and eclectic decor sourced from the famous antique shops the Hudson Valley is known for.
We acquired the property in 2021, and have updated the home with all the modern comforts and conveniences:
- Fully air-conditioned
- Lightning-fast WIFI (perfect for remote work)
- Updated kitchen with a fully stocked pantry
- Private nature trail
- Laundry Room
- Ample parking for 5 cars
- 6-8 minute drive to the grocery store, pharmacy, and village with boutiques, restaurants, farmer's market
- Pet-friendly
THE HOUSE
Sleeps 8: Main Suite with King bed and wood-burning fireplace, two upstairs bedrooms with Queen beds, junior sleeping nook downstairs with Full bed. We also have 2 twin air mattresses available for your use.
2.5 bathrooms: the Main Suite has an ensuite bathroom with a clawfoot tub and shower, double-sink vanity, and toilet with bidet. The second upstairs bathroom has a tub and shower with handrails. The ground floor has a powder room with a washer and dryer. The kitchen has a dishwasher, farmhouse sink, and mini prep sink, plus a breakfast nook with seating for 5 and a coffee counter that seats 2.
Enjoy nature views in the enclosed all-season Sun Room, game night in the Living Room with an 8-foot woodburning fireplace, feasts for 10 in the Dining Room, or cocktails on the outdoor patio with lounge and dining areas. Our private nature trails weave through acres of woodland bordering the Mudderkill Creek.
COMFORTS OF HOME
The outdoor patio features lounge seating for 10, a picnic table, and a Grillmaster combination charcoal grill + smoker.
The kitchen features Cuisinart stainless steel cookware, a full pantry of spices and herbs, and an array of kitchen tools and appliances.
We include plenty of firewood to stoke the 2 indoor wood-burning fireplaces (living room and main suite) plus our outdoor fire pit surrounded by 8 cedar Adirondack chairs. We include Wellies in our mudroom to borrow if you want to explore the grounds!
We have Google Home voice-activated speakers throughout the entire home for rooms filled with music. SmartTVs in the living room and Main Suite are set up with Netflix, HBO Max, Apple +, Prime Video, Hulu, and DStream (live Cable).
Play lawn games and lounge in the hammock in summer, pick apples from the trees on the property in the fall, or enjoy our sledding hill in winter (we have sleds for your use). Yoga mats are provided to continue your practice during your stay.
LOCATION DETAILS
Travel by car, Trailways Bus, or Amtrak (Rhinecliff Station is 25 minutes away). 30-minute drive to Hunter Mountain, and 45 minutes to Windham Mountain for ski season (or, ziplining in the summer!).

About the Owner
We're Jim and Sarah, owners of the Black Walnut Farm. We've been best friends for over 20 years, and in 2021 purchased our beautiful farmhouse as a weekend getaway from our busy lives in the city.
We’ve spent the past year painstakingly restoring, renovating, and updating it to its glory— Jim is passionate about antiques and vintage items, and all of the interiors reflect the historic nature of the property (275 years old, this year!)
We provide a fully stocked pantry, linens, and everything else you need.
