    Great stay. Amazing location. Came up on the train and didn't need a car. We could walk to everything. Breakfast was amazing!

    Chrystie House - Breakfast in the dinning room at Chrystie House B&B

    Chrystie House

    My partner and I stayed for a weekend in the Chrystie House specifically in the William Few room…read more The home itself is gorgeous and artfully decorated to evoke its 1800s heydays. The Few room is similarly decorated with beautiful antique wooden furniture as well as a small library including historical texts about the room's namesake William Few. Despite its retro ambiance, it did not lack for modern conveniences. The room itself is quite spacious, more than enough for two people, and it has all the amenities you would expect including a large comfortable bed, a TV, water heater, and supplies to make tea. Every morning, we were offered breakfast which was served in a ornately decorated dining room and consisted of a tasty fruit salad as well as freshly baked croissants, scrambled eggs, fresh orange juice, and coffee. This was delicious way to start off the day that we looked forward to everyday. The best part of our stay was getting to interact with the owners. Throughout our stay we were well taken care of by Lynn. She was always available if we needed help and offered tips about what to see and do in Beacon. Overall, I highly recommend the Chrystie House for anyone looking to stay overnight in Beacon. It is a far more luxurious and intimate experience than what you would get at a hotel and was exactly what we were looking for during our weekend getaway.

    Botsford Briar Bed and Breakfast - The Hydrangea Room

    As the summer was on its last legs and with a busy fall at work right around the corner, I wanted…read moreto get away. With a little luck, I managed to book a room for two nights during Labor Day weekend with only about a week's notice at the Botsford Briar. I found it on the internet, having never before been to Beacon, a little escape I had planned because of hiking, kayaking, the Dia: Beacon, the boat to tour Bannerman Castle, and Main Street were all within walking distance. I arrived quite early on Saturday via train and headed up to Main Street. I had a kayaking tour reservation and had planned to do that before checking in at Bostford Briar. However, when there was some miscommunication and the tour left without me, the folks at Mountain Top outdoor store called the proprietors of the Botsford Briar (yeah, it's that small of a town) to see if I could check in early. And all was well; they were happy to take me early. My room was ready and I headed over...and up the rather steep hill of High Street. Charlie met me halfway up the hill and insisted on taking my bag the rest of the way. The house is charming and looks just as it does on the website photo. Inside, it's filled with curiosities on the first floor. I met Shirley there too. Throughout my stay, she and Charlie were wonderful. They took the time to try to find an alternate kayaking solution for me, suggested restaurants, went to the trouble of having my breakfast ready quite early on my last morning there since I had to leave before the normal time, etc. I stayed in the Wisteria Room, which was lovely. The bed was comfy. There were a couple of chairs as well as a table with two dining chairs with bottles of water on a tray. In case it was needed, there was an AC unit. Lots of sunlight could come in through the generous windows (though you could pull curtains and shades too). Wifi was free. The TV wasn't a flat screen, but I didn't watch it so, who really cares? The room had wonderful charm and was clearly lovingly decorated. The bathroom was a private one down the hall. However, they've thoughtfully added a curtain one can pull to really make that whole wing private (so you don't feel odd walking to the bathroom in your pajamas; nobody can see you). I loved the claw foot tub and had a nice soak each night. It was a large bathroom with nice towels and was meticulously clean. I spent a good portion of both evenings watching the sunset on the beautiful shared deck out back. It's at the top of High Street and you can see down and across the Hudson River. It's beautiful and a wonderful quiet spot (or a place to chat with other guests, as I did the second evening). Also shared for the guests is a small room with a fridge, cupboard (thoughtfully stocked with glasses, wine glasses, corkscrews, etc.), and a single serving coffee maker for anything you wanted to make or store yourself. Breakfast was quite generous. There was one freshly baked (and still warm!) item each day along with other breads, a fantastic fruit plate, juice, and coffee. The only thing I would have added would have been a hard boiled egg or something so that I could get in a little protein. But with what was provided, I really wasn't lacking at all in nourishment. It's brought to your room at your chosen time on a tray. The location is great. It's easy walking distance to the train station, Dia: Beacon, boat launch, and Main Street. It's within walking distance of a trail head for hiking as well though you should know that it's a long hike in itself up Main Street to reach it. I'm so glad I came to Botsford Briar to get away. It's so clear how much love (and personal talent/handiwork) Charlie and Shirley have put into the place. And they really take pride in making it a wonderful retreat. I wouldn't be surprised if I found myself back there again when weary of the city.

    This b&b is close to Main Street and the Dia which was a huge plus…read more The room was clean, bathroom not moldy. The decor of the room and the b&b are not my particular taste, cluttered, heavy fabrics, heavy wooded furniture. Taste is subjective though and I could imagine another person may enjoy. The air conditioner is positioned in such a way that it blows directly on the bed. I found sitting out on the deck to be noisier than we hoped for...can hear the train whistle and cars on a road in the distance. The morning breakfast spread had coffee, juice, pastries and fruit, none of which were of the best quality. I only met Charlie who was friendly and very helpful. I spoke to a woman who I believe is the owner by phone while booking and when we were likely to arrive after their 9pm time limit and our phone personalities did not mesh well.

Driving through this idyllic town, the GPS said we've arrived at our destination. Going up to the house, I see a busted up gravel driveway covered in leaves. I navigate to the front door and grabbed my overnight bag. Wet leaves or ice, I wouldn't be a happy guest. We're greeted by Neil and he gives us a small tour of the common space. The furnishings are very unique. I can see the owners antiquing in the area and finding these treasured pieces. As far as shared items, there is a Keurig coffee machine. It'll do in a pinch. At 7am I wanted coffee and the machine water was empty. I had to knock on the kitchen door and wait until someone answered to refill the machine. Breakfast was amazing! For me at least, when I'm on vacation I'll have French Toast and pancakes during my stay. My wife? She broke down the menu: a pitcher of orange juice, cake with sorbet, fruit plate with a boxed cookie on the side along with pancakes. My wife reminded me this is not an adult breakfast, it's all sugar! She asked for egg whites and Neil was flustered. They figured it out and served my wife. Neil grabbed me at the common area and said he explained breakfast during check in. I didn't know that we had to speak up right then, usually there's a sheet? The next day Darlene made some amazing pumpkin pancakes. My wife took 1/2 of one and we were only served two. So breakfast for me was good but I was aggravated both mornings. I was looking forward to kicking back and enjoying a bottle of wine, maybe smoke a cigar? Neil said there is no smoking on the premise. Ok, that's out. I asked for an ice bucket and was told he'll dig one up. It never came. It really didn't matter because the outside furniture on the deck, it wasn't inviting. The pillows looked wet and old. There is no other seating outside, no fire pit, nada. I brought my bottle to the next B&B... With any B&B, you should be offered quality shower products. First off, there was no soap bar? I don't like liquid soap, much less Dial. The shampoo, was a tiny bottle, something cheap. I had to buy a bar of soap and use a travel shampoo I had from another hotel. Our room was, interesting. More unique styled furniture. Lighting up the room was inadequate. There were small lamps but it wasn't enough. Neil said the thermostat for the entire house was right here. If we made the temperature warmer or colder, the entire house temperature will change. The same with the WiFi, the router was in our room?! That's a lot of pressure.. I didn't touch anything. After we checked out and I drove down busted driveway, I was glad to be leaving. 3 Yelp stars, my stay was average. I didn't feel pampered or relaxed.

Rev Jim was super flexible with Zoom/Skype video chat meetings because of this, and I even had the opportunity to visit him for an in-person meeting at his home when I was in town at the Beacon Hermitage. I must say this is a beautiful, stunning, and artsy property if you get the chance to visit! We worked with Rev Jim for a couple of years leading up to the wedding where he provided us a questionnaire for my husband and I to fill out separately with some personal questions about our relationship so he could learn more about us as a couple. I highly recommend taking this seriously as he was able to truly personalize and incorporate our love into the ceremony this way! Rev Jim also provided a document listing the different types of ceremonies to select what suits us best. We aren't the most religious, but wanted a little mention of god's blessing to appease our family, and he nailed that. He was also very accommodating with having a couple of family members conduct a reading, as well as allow time for my step-sister (who is a musical theatre professional) to sing at the beginning of our ceremony. We also decided for our unity ceremony to do the handfasting which truly "tied the knot"! During our reception, we received so many compliments from our guests on his ceremony, and even had some friends ask if they can use him for their wedding! He was so positively impactful and is someone to remember forever as such a big part of our special day! Check out his Instagram (@revjimrooney) to get a glimpse of what he does! You won't be disappointed!! Thank you for all the hard work and dedication!!!

However, the room itself is a bit rundown and the walls were dirty. There was a piece of ceiling peeling by the bed. My husband also killed 3 different insects in the room--some flying bug, a weird large bug on the curtain, and a large ant. We requested 2 more pillows and they came without pillow cases. I had to call again to get them (I will say the front desk was very responsive and also we ended up getting 4 extra pillows. We really cocoon ourselves when we sleep!).

Didn't help that it was freezing out making the room temp very cold to put it politely. However the main issue was 0 courtesy from the staff. I called the front desk multiple times throughout the day and early evening to check if power was back so we could go back to hotel (me and wife were just trying to have a relaxing day at hotel). Simple message as "Can you please give us a courtesy call back letting us know if power is back on or not, we would greatly appreciate it." Never received a call back which was greatly disappointing. So we spent who knows how much money for a day/night at hotel and spent about 1 hour there excluding sleeping. Again I understand only so much one can do about power but the staff just didn't seem to really care about the guests (or at least us).

My husband and I got married here in November of 2022 after a patient two year waiting period after booking in 2020! We toured the premises and immediately saw the love and design that Sally and Doug put into creating this special place. We call our wedding a glorified thanksgiving dinner. It was centered around filling the four walls of the greenhouse space with long tables, family style service, and so much love. The Greenhouse was already so beautiful we barely chose to add anything to it for our ceremony. Some beautiful perks of this space include a TRULY pet friendly space, gratuities included in event pricing for ease, the venue is yours and your peoples for the whole weekend (none of that, "which wedding are you here from?"), a picturesque backdrop from all angles, and plenty of incredible vendors that know this space and stay passionate about working with them. I woke up on the morning of my wedding, had breakfast with my husband-to-be, and had the most relaxing and stress-free day knowing that I was seconds from my room in case I needed/forgot something and that I was already at my venue. There was a complete ease through the day-of-timeline and after the ceremony, we had returned to our room to sign the marriage license to find Audrey's staff even cleaned up our space and left us fresh chilled champagne and snacks from cocktail hour. We have yet to stop getting compliments from guests on the food, the drinks, and the customer service. I couldn't have asked for a better gift than getting to spend the money to have a wedding weekend here, to fully take our time with and absorb all of the love that surrounded us. THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts to the whole team.
