POOL AVAILABILITY & HEATING: The pool is open during the warmer months from mid-April to October 14th. If confirmed available, there is a $150/day fee for pool heating at this home.
Once the heating fee is settled, the pool will be set to an auto-non-adjustable 77-82°F degrees to avoid bacterial growth.
Please contact the Concierge team at least 72 hours before your arrival if you want the pool heated for your stay between the months mentioned.
Note: Pool service is scheduled every Tuesday at Wander Hudson Ridge. While we aim to minimize any inconvenience, please be aware that the service team may need to access the pool area briefly during your stay.
CELL SERVICE You may experience cell service disruption in this part of New York. To ensure you have no issue with arrival, please be sure to program your GPS ahead of time in a service area.
OFF-GRID HOME Wander Hudson Ridge may have limited cell reception for select carriers, so we recommend taking a screenshot of the WiFi login ahead of your arrival to avoid disruption.
NO SMOKING No smoking or vaping inside. Open flames including candles are also prohibited. Exceptions are birthday candles or fire in a designated fire pit or fireplace. A fine of $1,000 will be applied to any guest found violating this policy.
