This property truly is amazing. The cabin is cozy yet spacious and artfully decorated. The grounds are a wild nature sanctuary with the sounds of the rushing creek and birds bringing a relaxation in the hot tub sure to melt away any cares you still had from before you walked through the door. We loved the various hammocks and sitting areas available. Although there were fabulous eateries in the area, we preferred to cook for ourselves and enjoy this amazing setting! We definitely will come back again!

Amanda’s place was beautiful - we especially enjoyed being right on the creek and the outdoors space and amenities! Amanda was communicative and responsive. We enjoyed our stay a lot!

This was our third stay at Esopus Sanctuary which says it all! We love the beautiful river and it’s rushing sound even when there are no fish biting. The house and property are welcoming and so comfortable. And the little extras— coffee, tea, olive oil, spices, maple syrup— all make a week’s stay easy without having to pack everything. The new downstairs bath is a lovely surprise and the outside patio additions are great. So glad to see the frog musicians are still there! The furniture is never worn and the small table and chair set in the sun room is perfect. My personal favorites are the giraffes and there is always something new added to make the decor even more interesting and unique- like the lights in the chandelier and the mink stole! Amanda is the perfect host always checking to make sure all is well. We hope to be back next year! Thank you for such a lovely spot to look forward to every year. R&R Cordeaux

This place is magical. I needed a brief getaway and couldn’t have asked for a more perfect property. Every space has been used to make it charming, comfortable and just really cool. The sound of the Esopus lulled me to sleep. Thank you for sharing it!

Amanda’s place on the river was a beautiful and peaceful getaway. The house itself was perfect with all the windows and cozy vibe. The town had cute spots to check out and eat. We would definitely return during the warmer months!
