About Barn on the Pond

Lodging

The barn features plush furnishings, a state-of-the-art kitchen, indoor and outdoor electric fireplaces, and a Big Ass fan for sultry weather. Soaring wood-beamed ceilings and cozy fireplaces combine grand scale with intimate spaces. The landscaped grounds were a highlight of the 2011 Saugerties Secret Garden Tour. Interior textures that reflect the landscape and floor-to-ceiling windows create a seamless transition from indoor to outdoor space.

The History

The original 1800's barn overlooked a 4,200 square foot pond. Livestock grazed, farmers harvested the land, and the pond functioned as a water source for the animals. The existing property was part of a large piece of land that was subdivided and sold in different sections over the years, which explains the stone walls and irregular layout of the plot’s 3.8 acreage.

The Restoration

Behind its striking cherry red facade, lies a jewel of an interior, exuding personality and charm and meticulously designed for comfort, convenience, recreation and pleasure. Soaring wood beamed ceilings and cozy fireplaces instantly dazzle guests as they step into what feels like their very own home.

The Future

Part of Barn on the Pond's mission is to incubate and showcase innovators and small businesses. As part of a close-knit, local community of artisans, artists, farmers, craftsmen/women, and neighbors, Barn on the Pond does not stand alone and apart. Rather, it seeks to enhance and stimulate the local economy by employing the services of talented area regional entrepreneurs and bringing tourism to the area.
