Beautiful, light flooded, waterfront, newly renovated 2 bedroom home on picturesque Lake Carmel. Wake up, eat, sleep and relax to the tranquil view of the glistening water - truly an oasis! (1 hour north of nyc)
Take in a sunset while eating a meal at home, explore the shops and restaurants in a cute nearby town, take a walk around the lake, read a book by the cozy fireplace, hike, cook, kayak, ski, or just sit and enjoy. Centrally located close to Hudson Valley, Westchester and Connecticut.
This house is truly special! From the minute you enter you feel a sense of calm, while simultaneously being wowed by the gorgeous lake views. Every room is light filled and airy. Truly an escape from everyday life-some have even described the home as a relaxing retreat. Cook, walk or bike to a nearby beach, kayak, ski, enjoy the walking path around the lake, sit by the cozy fireplace or delve into our extensive guidebook and explore the cute nearby towns and restaurants-the options are yours. We recently renovated it and we put so much love into it.
The house has 2 beautiful, light flooded, comfortable bedrooms. The beds and pillows are usually a guest favorite! The Master Bedroom has a queen sized bed and direct water views and the second bedroom has a double bed and views of the beautifully landscaped back yard. Both bedrooms are full of natural light and have flatscreen TV’s.
So many of our guests love to cook and grill at home and really take in the lake views. The kitchen is well equipped and we have a a beautiful wood dining room table-smack in the center of the best view- that seats 4. There is also a grill in our spacious backyard along with outdoor seating-perfect for a backyard bbq. The kitchen/dining/living areas are completely open to each other, with huge windows that allow a stunning view of the lake from all angles. Drink your coffee while watching the birds dive into the water and eat your dinner while watching the sunset turn the lake a million shades of purple. Its truly magical.
The bathroom is a fully renovated full bath with deluxe fixtures, and a Rainshower shower head with great water pressure. There are plenty of towels, including beach towels for the warmer months and bathrobes to relax and truly enjoy.
There are 2 outdoor areas - front of the house with the picturesque lake view and/or in the backyard with beautiful landscaping and an outdoor dining set. Please note our neighbor Francesca comes by once a day to water the plants in the backyard and our landscaper cuts the grass on Tuesdays.
With soft, elegant neutral touches throughout this home, you’ll have no problem taking deep breaths and disconnecting from the outside world!
The lake is right at your door and there are various ways to enjoy it There are no motorboats, only kayaks, and canoes but it is great for swimming! You can jump right in or explore one of the beaches at the end of the road. We also have kayaks for your use if you want to take a ride on the lake. There is a beach within walking distance and we do have a beach pass for your use. There is a $100 deposit to use it which will be returned at the end of your stay when the pass has been returned. If you feel that you need the passes, please DM us and we would be happy to set it up for you.
If you would like to explore more, you’re just minutes from the town of Carmel where you’ll find restaurants, cafes and more, as well as Westchester and Hudson Valley which is also full of restaurants and cafes. In addition, you are close to ski slopes, golfing, museums and the picturesque Hudson Valley region.
The house is within 15-20 minutes of both Southeast Metro-North Station and Brewster Metro-North Station, making it easily accessible from NYC.
About the hosts: We are both health professionals based in NYC. Amitai Cohen is a renowned yoga and meditation teacher and Nicole Glassman is a holistic nutritionist and owner of Mindful Health in NYC. We both run wellness retreats locally and worldwide. Something that makes this listing special is that an add on option for your stay is to book a personal retreat!
Personal Retreats are private, totally customized, mini healing retreats (ranging from one night - three-nights) designed to help you uncover your blocks, break through limiting beliefs and learn how the physical and emotional are connected. These retreats are great for a range of things, including if you’re dealing with a major life change or loss, anxiety, feel lost and unsure of your next step, or are just looking for some self-care and to learn more about your body’s unique needs. Think both inside and out the box-yoga, nutrition, chakra healing, breathwork, massage and more.
During the Personal Retreat, you'll work one on one with Nicole to create a healing road map and a plan of action for your unique wellness journey. Nicole will also customize your retreat to include additional holistic modalities (outside of her chakra work and EAV testing) like sound healing, natural detox treatments, yoga, massage, facials, meditation, PEMF treatment with crystal healing & more. The program is ideal for 1-3 people. For more information please send us a message.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features 2 bedrooms. The vacation home also includes a washing machine.

This place is just like the pictures. Very clean and in a beautiful neighborhood. The view is fantastic! The linens are hotel-like and the kitchen is very nicely stocked. We stayed two nights and walked around the lake, made for a great stay. Definitely recommend.

Vacation on the Lake
The house was exactly as it appears. The view of the lake from the front picture windows was spectacular. And the fireplace was put to good use since the weather was so very very cold. Would love to visit in the summer.
