Vacation Rental Description
“Whitney in the Woods” ~ A luxury B&B that blends art and nature!
Like the museum it is named for, 'Whitney in the Woods' appears simple and unassuming on the outside~ but when you step inside, you enter a delightful world of inspired creativity! The earth-toned interior reflects the deep rich colors of the surrounding 5-acre forest, and perfectly offsets the striking collection of original artwork and one-of-a-kind pieces of handcrafted furniture ~ just as the sculptural installations on the grounds are enhanced by the towering pines and hemlocks in their midst. The effect is both grounding and uplifting!
This stylish contemporary B&B has an open floor plan with spaces for dining, gathering, relaxing, and reading that flow into each other ~ and outside, through sliding glass doors that open onto a spacious two-level deck overlooking a large in-ground pool. Outdoor seating and lighting allow you to relax under the stars on warm summer nights. And if the weather is chilly, you can gather around a blazing fire in the wood-burning fireplace in the living room ~ perhaps with a book from the vast collection in the built-in cases on either side. French doors lead to a glassed-in 4-season room where you can enjoy the beauty of nature whatever the weather!
At night, climb the dramatic open staircase with a vaulted ceiling to the second floor, where you’ll find three bedrooms. The master suite has a king-size bed and private bath, with a Jetted tub under a skylight and a separate glassed-in shower. The second bedroom has a 4-poster queen-size spindle bed, and sliding glass doors onto a private balcony. The third bedroom contemporary in style is equipped with a queen size bedroom and creative accents. The second-floor two of the bedrooms have a shared bathroom which has a glassed-in slate-tiled shower. In addition, there’s a half-bathroom on the first floor.
Make yourself at home in this private and secluded Woodstock retreat, and let your spirit soar!
