The property includes a main house with 6 bedrooms, 4 1/2 baths plus an guest cabin (available for rent separately).

The Neighborhood

Stissing Lake offers an ideal place to relax, lots of room to roam and indulge in the magic of nature. Enjoy spring blossoms, summer fun in the water or the gorgeous fall foliage. Hike Stissing Mountain, picnic on the lawn, kayak or paddle boat around Stissing Lake, swim without the distraction of motorized boats, fish for Bass, watch the swans and turtles on the lake or birdwatch at Thomson Nature Preserve. Hudson Valley is home to artisan distillers, breweries, dairies, farmers markets, historic mansion tours, horseback riding, antiquing, and much more!

Getting around

Trains from NYC, Amtrak to Rhinebeck (25 mins away) and less expensive Metro North to Poughkeepsie (45 mins away) and Wassiac (which is the closest about 20 minutes away).
Once on property, it's quite easy to get around town, walking or by bike. A car allows exploring the Hudson Valley.

I've been a journalist at Brooklyn based, StarChefs Magazine, writing about food, chefs, and restaurants for last 2 decades.

Stissing Lake House has been my family’s home for more than 25 years. I was married here, my children raised here, and sharing this house and our little slice of heaven with you is a way to keep it in my family.

We love this property and hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
