Beacon Hermitage

Jim and Joe are outstanding hosts who truly care about their guests. They consistently checked in to make sure everything was perfect and made us feel incredibly welcome throughout our stay. Their friendliness and local knowledge were invaluable offering great advice on things to do in Beacon. Thanks to their hospitality, we felt completely comfortable and had an amazing experience at Beacon Hermitage. I can’t imagine better hosts for our visit!

The attention of Jim and Joe was beyond any expectation as they helped me with logistics and picked me up even a couple of times in the train station of Cold Spring .

I found was I was looking for.. and there are always things to be improved in any accommodation but the place, the forest surrounding and the attitude made everything incredible . Actually I m coming back in December for my new visit tot New York for work.

Welcoming and super nice host, delicious pastires for breakfast, beautiful garden and interior design

The service is was great, delicious breakfast pastries and we were really comfy in our bed. Thank you.

We loved everything about this adorable bed and breakfast! To start, the homemade pastries baked daily by the owners were French bakery worthy! All the beautiful art adorning the common areas were so lovely to study. My favorite part of the Hermitage was the gorgeous terraced garden that had all these cute little seating areas nestled in the trees and flower beds.

It was an absolute pleasure to stay at Beacon Hermitage. Even before arriving, Jim and Joe were extremely thoughtful, considerate and welcoming, making our check-in and stay easy and comfortable after a long day of traveling. They are very attentive and gracious hosts, anticipating our needs and respecting our privacy. The breakfast was excellent each morning of our stay, and the residence and surrounding grounds were beautiful, peaceful, and exciting to explore. We came to Beacon without a strong idea of what to do, and Jim made excellent suggestions. They have lived in the area for a long time and know it very well. Our room was comfortable, and the entire home was very clean and well-decorated! We’ll be back!

Lovely pastries, coffee and tea, and juice!

There was a charming garden, and Jim is a warm, hospitable host. The exuberant decor was fun. The bedroom was a good size and had good daylight on both sides.

The house interior smelled musty, and it could have used more regular cleaning and airing out. There were no screens on the window, so we didn't open the window because we didn't want any mosquitos to come into the room. Our only option for the much needed ventilation was to run the window unit AC on low all night.

The grounds of the property were a pleasure to explore. Behind the house there’s a hill that overlooks the property where they’ve cut several little paths up, with multiple little sitting areas and nooks. The house itself is very cozy with a lovely dining room and sitting area. The rooms are very spacious, ours having a large walk-in closet. Two IMMACULATE bathrooms upstairs and downstairs, both equipped with a shower, so even though they are shared with other guests, it never felt like it. Great location, just minutes from downtown Beacon. Additionally, there’s a path from the property into the woods that leads to a small waterfall with a pool you’re able to swim in. Gorgeous!

If there was something not to like here, then I missed it amidst all the things to love.
