Colorful Bright Garden Suite @ Downtown Peekskill

We are in the heart of downtown Peekskill. You can walk everywhere, so no car is needed! You have free street parking, cool amenities, & epic views of the mountains & city skyline. Just 1 train, 1 boat, or 1 Hr drive from NYC. The house is bright, colorfully decorated, filled with sunlight, & an artistic minimalistic style. Between your room, the comfiness of the house, your chill hosts, our local tips, & Peekskill's constant events, you have everything you need to enjoy your downtown Peekskill.

From the guest suite, you have an amazing view of the mountains and city. The suite gets an amazing amount of sunlight, and you can hear the birds in the morning as you start your day. The entire house is keyless, so it is impossible to get locked out or lose your keys ;-). The 750 sq ft suite includes a bedroom with a king-sized bed, standing mirror and sofa, a private full bathroom, and a living room with another sofa, a 50-inch TV, a dining table with chairs, a fridge, a coffee machine, and a microwave. Your room also has bathrobes and disposable slippers for each adult guest. If you have a favorite or super comfy house slippers, please feel free to bring them, as the house is shoeless, and I want all my guests to feel right at home.

The house is in downtown Peekskill, so there is no need for a car. The easiest way to get here is to hop on the Metro North train from NYC at either Grand Central or Harlem. It is 1 train, 5 stops, and 1 hour. As the house is downtown, you can enjoy the bars, restaurants, local events, festivals, theater, live music, and comedy shows by walking for 3-15 mins.

I greet all my guests at the house, as it gives me a chance to make sure you feel right at home, explain how the locks work, and make recommendations for your stay (if needed). Once you are checked in, if you need me, ping me on the app. Check-in is between 3 pm-8 pm. Most of the time, I can accommodate a late or overnight check-in, but that would need to be agreed upon at the time of your reservation. Though you might not see me much during your stay, I will find some time to say goodbye before you go!

To get to Peekskill, you have tons of options. You can take a cruise from Manhattan down the Hudson ( I know, very cool). You can take the train from Manhattan. It is one train, a few stops, and about an hour. From the Peekskill Train Station, you can walk 15-20 minutes to the house, Uber, or message me for a pick-up (it's $10). You can also take the train to Croton-Harmon and Uber to the house. If you are coming from the airport, you can Uber (it is between $50-150 depending on the airport and time of day). If you ask in advance, sometimes I can do airport or Manhattan pickup or drop off for the same price as Uber. Pick-ups and drop-offs are not services; it is just something I am happy to do when I have the time. I recommend taking the train from Grand Central or Harlem.

Besides hosting, I also have a few local tour experiences and private tours: 1. A 3-hour food and culture tour of downtown Peekskill. 2. A half-a-day wine tour where we drive through NY wine country 3. An all-day wine and shopping tour. Guest staying with me get a discount, so if you are interested, feel free to message me.
