Lovely small 2br / 1 bath in a converted Church in Accord. Great outdoor hot tub and nice kitchen for cooking. Probably best for late spring and summer to take advantage of outdoor pool.

Quiet and Lovely Home in a great location - 12 mins to New Paltz & Kingston, and 6 mins to Rosendale but feels like a world away from everything. Plenty of room for my family of four to spread out and unwind. Would definitely return!
This is a perfect stay for a weekend away.

Lovely stay! Everything was beautiful and all the instructions for running the house were very easy to follow. This was our second time and we plan to be back! My one note was that the burners on the stove were often tricky to light, and didn't alwa…

Our family had a marvelous week at the barn. Everything was precisely as promised, inc. the state-of-the-art outdoor kitchen. We would recommend this amazing place to one and all with enthusiasm.
We had such a wonderful time at Jo’s Airbnb!
