Recent Guest Review, 6/9/2025:
If you are attending an event at Gather Greene, I 100% recommend booking Hollykiss! We had a family wedding there this past weekend and used Hollykiss as our extended family’s base of operations. A 4 minute drive from the venue, We booked the entire house (all 6 indoor bedrooms - plus the “barn” which has 4 beds for extra space) The house and property are GORGEOUS. Everyone was awed- and I was given kudos for finding it! We had 12 people sleep there plus another 10 (who were staying 30 minutes+ away) come for lunch and to get ready for the wedding. We came from NY, DC, Boston, New Hampshire, Wisconsin and Florida- and the house was huge inside and out. It has tons of windows- a perfect kitchen, a dining room table that sat all of us plus a piano where we had a family sing a long! Before the 4pm wedding, we planned lunch for 25 intending to use the grounds for a casual picnic. Mark- our host -was super knowledgeable, accommodating, responsive and helpful with information about caterers and grocery stores in the area without being a bit intrusive. He even offered us the use of folding tables and chairs. Even though there was a torrential downpour at the lunch hour- the wrap around covered porch and the spacious interior gave us comfortable and weatherproof options. For a fraction of what we would have spent on hotel rooms, Hollykiss allowed us all to stay, play and eat together in a wonderful upscale setting. 5 stars all around!!!

HollyKiss is the reinvention of the historic Hotchkiss House, resort hotel and boarding rooms originally established in 1900 by Perry Hotchkiss. It was a hotbed of activity until the late 1970s, then renovated as a single family residence. On the surface it feels like grandma's farmhouse or your summer camp lodge, but rebuilt from the inside out with rebuilt foundation, interior steel beams, and updated thermal windows to mention a few upgrades.

What you get:
Guest Quarters, includes bedroom (Queen bed) Den/Sleeping area Queen sofa bed), Full Bath. This unit is also offered separately at a lower rate: (See VRBO listing # 3819421).

All other areas open: Two upstairs full bathrooms, one of them being Grand Master en suite. (Total 3 full bathrooms in house)
Grand Living Room, Dining Area, Full Kitchen and Breakfast Area, and entry way. Full wrap around front porch. Lots of space!

HollyKiss House is its own destination. Room for outdoor activities and space to wander, its natural beauty has been a backdrop to film makers and films, including students from the legendary New York University Tisch School of the Arts. (NYU Film School.)

Check-out instructions

The host requires you to complete the following before checking out:
Load and start the dishwasher
Remove personal items
Lock the doors and return the keys
You don't need to strip the beds, just leave them unmade so the cleaner knows to clean them. If you used the sofa bed in the TV room, leave it open so the cleaner can change the sheets.
I do ask that the full trash bins by the mudroom door be placed straight out from the white gate, along side Schoharie Tpke, (about 10 feet away from the white mailbox). The trash truck comes Monday.
Leave the front porch lights on.

Beautiful house, great location!

Absolutely loved our stay! The house was beautiful, spotless, and had more than enough space for our group of 8 adults, 3 small kids, and a dog. The big table was perfect for meals and games. WiFi was solid — all the adults worked remotely on Thursday without any issue. Communication with the owner was fantastic. Would definitely stay here again!

Great stay!

The Hollykiss House met all our needs. It was extremely close to Gather Greene and near to the town of Hudson. The house was spacious, clean and well appointed. Mark was even there for us during check-in and gave us a tour. I would definitely recommend this place, especially if you have a larger party.

Family stay at HollyKiss

My family stayed at Hollykiss during a recent wedding. This included 6 adults and 2 children. The house was clean, spacious and full of charm. Mark was a great host. Answered questions promptly and made sure our stay was comfortable in all ways. What wasn’t expected was the really cool artwork throughout the house. We hope to stay at Hollykiss again when we visit the Catskills.
