Located just a few miles from nearby Catskill, Hudson, Leeds and Coxsackie, the house is technically in rural Athens, NY. There are many amazing restaurants and attractions that the Hudson Valley has to offer. A road to road horseshoe driveway allows for easy drop-off and pick-up, avoiding stairs into the front entry. The 9.6 acre property is a world of its own, consisting of 4 structures: the main house, (4308 Sq ft), the renovated upstairs Red Barn with Loft (available for additional rate), the Snack Shack which once provided food for resort guests and now serves as an outdoor station for patio barbecues and outdoor events, and the 100 year old log cabin tavern/bar/casino made from local timber. (Currently closed for remodeling). Older locals can tell you fond sentimental stories of how rock bands and entertainment from New York City performed there in the 70's. (Shades of Dirty Dancing. :) You may feel the rich nostalgic history just by walking around the grounds and see several deer, spring fawns, and a full list of wildlife. One glance at the night sky and you'll see stars you never knew existed. That feature continues from the large picture window from the grand bedroom inside the house. Not your typical Airbnb, since it existed long before the app did.

Recent Guest Review:
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!!!
