Peace and quiet

This home is in a quiet area.
Nestled in the foothills of The Catskills, Rushbrook Lodge is newly renovated farmhouse built in 1825. It was a vacation boarding house in the 1940s, 50's & 60’s, but now re-imagined for a new generation. When you rent Rushbrook you get 2 full homes with an adjoining hallway. Great for families and friends to vacation together with plenty of space for privacy too! Enjoy the porch view of our picturesque barn, stone balcony overlooking the creek and the 100 acre forest with a mile long trail.

The space
The house has been lovingly furnished with vintage and contemporary touches. Two of the bedrooms even retain their original boarding house sinks. The house sits on a 100 acre nature preserve with a mile long trail. There are rock outcroppings, some cliffs and water features as well as forest wild life. Hiking is at your own risk.

Neighborhood highlights

The Lodge is on a quiet country lane. We have wonderful neighbors who have been in the area for generations. The Lodge was operated by the Perkel family decades ago. It was a 'vacation boarding house' where families would take their two week vacation the same two weeks every year. Besides the many natural wonders to discover in Saugerties, the town is also home to OPUS 40, HITs Horse Show, The Garlic Festival and many events, shops and restaurants. Just a short walk down the road is our "Rushbrook General Store & Cafe". We serve homemade creative comfort food for breakfast and lunch Tuesdays thru Saturdays.
