Buttermilk Falls Inn & Spa
Nestled in among 70 acres of wooded, river-hugging land fronting the Hudson, this spectacular inn is a real find in the Mid-Hudson Valley. Though small and friendly, with the feel of a hideaway, it provides the amenities of a much larger hotel. The main house, which holds 10 accommodations, is a 1764 Colonial that has been masterfully renovated and modernized. Guest rooms are elegantly designed, with antique touches and period furnishings. Whirlpool tubs and plush linens are found in all. The Foxglove Room on the first floor of the main house is equipped for visitors with disabilities -- a rarity in such an old house. Other, more private options, great for families, are the clifftop "North Cottage," two-story cottage "Pony's Pad," and the modern, three-bedroom "Riverknoll House," overlooking the Hudson. Meander among the stunning grounds and you'll discover wooded trails, a yoga studio and event space housed in a barn, waterfalls and ponds, flowering and organic gardens, a birdhouse full of chickens and peacocks, and a riverfront esplanade (where music and events are staged). The expertly staffed spa occupies a gorgeous facility with several treatment rooms, a glass-enclosed indoor-outdoor saltwater pool, and a Jacuzzi.
