★ THE NEIGHBORHOOD ★

Our home is nestled in the charming neighborhood of Abele Park, located on the serene shores of Lake Oscawana. This peaceful community is a blend of year-round residents and summer homes, offering a quiet retreat just moments away from the water.

Rich in history, Abele Park has roots that date back to the early 1900s, when it was a vibrant tourist destination for both locals and New York City visitors. The area once boasted hotels, casinos, social halls, and even speakeasies—attracting many, including the legendary Babe Ruth. Today, remnants of the past can still be seen in the vacant candy shop and gas station buildings near the park, offering a glimpse into the neighborhood's storied past.

The closest MetroNorth train stations are Peekskill and Cold Spring. Both trains are on the Hudson line and will take you into Grand Central Station NYC in about 80-90 minutes. They are both about 20 minutes from the property.

Mosaic Getaways respects diversity and inclusion. Our homes are open and accepting of guests from all backgrounds.
