I live in Beacon and am available remotely when needed.

Our home is located in a small neighborhood named Abele Park on Lake Oscawana. This beautiful, quiet neighborhood consists of a combination of year round residents and summer homes. As far back as the early 1900's this neighborhood consisted of hotels, casinos, social halls and speakeasies as it was a huge tourist attraction for locals and New York City residents (including Babe Ruth!). You can still see the un-occupied candy shop and gas station buildings down by the park.

Guests have access to the entire cottage with the exception of a locked off storage room and owner's closet.

PLEASE NOTE: The property contains an older heating system with baseboard heating which is known to make popping and buzzing noises. The living spaces and upstairs bedroom are relatively quiet, but the downstairs bedroom can sometimes be loud for light sleepers.

Christmas stay
The house met our needs. We were up visiting with children and grandchildren from Florida. Only issue was the heat. Don’t think house is well insulated. First 3 days were cold and heat wouldn’t get above 72 (we are from Florida!). Upstairs thermostat can’t be changed (67 degrees). TV is not cable, you must use YOUR streaming services. Driveway is a little tricky. Would rent again. Kitchen is well appointed and met all of our needs. Only negative was the initial checkin. We arrived at 2pm, but lock wouldn’t let us in till 4pm. Had to go cool our heels at Panera for two hours.

Great cottage, near Lake Oscawana
My wife and I had an extended stay in July 2023. We experienced the heaviest rainfall in Putnam Valley in a 100 years! The cottage has a great location, and I loved exploring all the haunts of my childhood, from hiking in Fahnstock to dining on the waterfront in Peekskill.
