Moondance Ridge Bed & Breakfast

Pros: We arrived right after a snowstorm which made everything picture perfect. The house is only 5 minutes away from the main town which makes it very convenient if you are there to visit the school or anything else in New Paltz. It's also right off of I-87 so once you reach your exit you're basically there. The room and the main area downstairs were beautifully decorated and felt very cozy. Our room was very comfy and the electric fireplace was much needed because temperatures went down into the single digits at night. The breakfast area was nice with a good variety and is available 24/7 with plates, utensils, and a microwave. There were a few issues that popped up during our stay but all we had to do was text the owner and it was quickly fixed. Cons: There were strawberries and blueberries in the fridge in the breakfast bar. Unfortunately, the strawberries were moldy although this was quickly rectified once we brought it up. One of the towels in our room was not clean but we were given so many that it did not matter because we just used the other ones which were all fine. And the parking area was not shoveled which made going to/from the car slippery after the snow turned to ice. Ultimately I enjoyed my stay and would happily stay there again, but a little more detail on the part of housekeeping would elevate the stay even further.

Clean and comfortable room. Great location.

We had booked a room online for a Friday night and never saw a single staff member on the site. The outside was not well maintained, and we question why the owner would post a sign warning that the entry deck is slippery when wet or icy rather than just make it safer. Furnishings were shabby, there wasn’t a light bulb in one of the two bedside lamps, and the overhead light didn’t work. Window shades didn’t reach the bottom of the windows, so having the room next to the parking lot provided no privacy. We skipped breakfast as it appeared to consist of prepackaged items and there were dirty dishes in a tub left out overnight in the dining room. This place was a big disappointment.

Clean, comfortable well-stocked bedroom and bathroom. 24-hour availability of coffee, tea, water and breakfast items.

Very clean and quiet, beautiful property, Central air, 24hour access to coffee/tea, microwave. 2 friendly outside cats. Beautiful dining/living are. Comfortable bed. Breakfast had fresh fruit, yogurts, cereal, and packaged bagels and muffins, all acceptable.

Very quiet, breakfast is very basic, we like the stay.

Was a nice quiet and pretty room! A nice change from the standard hotel!

This is a wonderful place to stay. The rate was very reasonable, and with the 24/7 Continental Breakfast, it is a real deal. The room was spacious and had a door out to the front porch, which was convenient. The owner was friendly and provided several good dining options.

The B&B was peaceful and quiet. Very helpful owner. Two cute outdoor cats greet you upon arrival., The breakfast could be a like more substantial. Minimal section some mini muffins, cereals and yogurt. There are plenty of places in town to get a full breakfast.

A different sort of B&B—self-service breakfast. Owner/manager was cordial, interesting. Huge common room included the breakfast area, big patio for nice weather enjoyment, TV, interesting art on the walls. Breakfast options were okay—bagels, English muffins, cereal—nothing special.
