The Barnette
The Space
This is a 24′ x 16′, two-story barn. The first floor is an open floor plan consisting of the living room, dining area, and kitchenette. This space includes two french doors leading out onto a large deck, letting in lots of natural light. Upstairs is the bedroom and bathroom.
As fellow “Air BnBers” who love to travel and experience new things, we have designed this space to model what we look for in our rentals. A large shower, a memory foam mattress with lots of pillows, comfortable places to sit, a fully equipped kitchen, and a wood stove.
My husband and I are both artists who love using the natural world as inspiration for our art. As such, the Barnette is filled with botanical artwork (for sale), along with natural found objects. During the growing season we will be able to offer guests different crops from the garden and fresh eggs from our hens. Don’t hesitate to ask us what we be available for harvesting at the time of your booking! The Barnette is secluded and private, perfect for your getaway from the big city!
Guest Access
The Barnett is located on a four acre parcel of land situated in the middle of Upstate New York. We encourage guests to visit the surrounding woods and wetlands, but we ask that they do so responsibly.My husband and I live about a five minute walk from the Barnette, on several acres of property that we are currently in the process of converting into a Botanical Garden. “Hortus Arboretum and Botanical Gardens” is a level II Arboretum and year-round greenhouse. Our guests are welcome to explore our gardens at their own leisure. For an additional fee of we are happy to offer a guided tour, basic gardening instruction, and/or to allow you to harvest some of our 200+ edible crops.

High Falls and Rosendale offer many health food stores and vegan/vegetarian options. We are 30 minutes from Kingston and New Paltz, which are slightly larger cities with pubs, clubs, and mall shopping.
Nearby are lots of hiking, rail trails, and pick-your-own farms. We are wiithin driving distance of the Mohonk Mountain House, Minnewaska State Park, Shawangunk Ridge, Catskill Mountains, and a two hour drive from Manhattan (New York City). We are also part of the Hudson Valley farm tour “Stick to Local”, and can give you a map of other farms that are nearby.
