A healing space. An artist dream loft is filled with light and shapes, color and patterns, -overlooking a beautiful pond with a waterfall. The loft is a large open space with high ceilings, wood floors. A perfect space to explore, dance, yoga or just enjoy the open flow of light reflected from the pond below on my fabric sculptures. It is a very uplifting space and filled with good energy. Facing east there is a large window wall for the morning sunrise and in the west, for the sunset, 3 sets of French doors and 2 windows. The 3 French doors open to a wraparound deck with lounge chair and teak dinning table, chairs and gas grill, overlooking a beautiful pond with a waterfall. There are benches and swings on the land to sit, and a fire pit to enjoy fires at night, seating close to the pond and a bridge over s small stream. The pond is swimmable and we just installed a new floating dock to swim to. We only use solar energy. There are 2 tables to create, draw, sculpt or write. The house has Wi-Fi, air conditioning and heating. You will find yoga mats and pillows for meditation and many blankets in one of the closets. There is no TV, only nature channel. The kitchen has a regular size refrigerator and stove. There are 2 queen size beds, one directly in the open space with headboard and one accessible with a ladder as a loft bed above the bathroom. It’s a tight space. There is a futon sofa that can be used for sleeping, one person and i keep an inflatable bed in the closed. You have to be skilled on ladders to feel comfortable. The bathroom has a large shower. Most of the cleaning supplies are environmentally friendly, the soaps organic and I left you some treats here and there. There is coffee maker, toaster, espresso maker, mixer, all you could need for dishes or cookware, the cookware is stainless steel, I tried to think of everything to make your stay meaningful and comfortable and if I forgot something please let me know! The mattresses and linens are super comfortable. The electricity is all solar. The artist dream loft is part of 3 buildings on 30 acres of land with 2 ponds, you can hike through the forest to a totally secluded second pond with a dock for swimming access. This pond has an island. The land is beautiful. I am a beekeeper and so there will be honeybees and part of my family 2 horses, Jest and jewel and a husky, called Zula There is a small orchard in front of the studio with fruit trees. You can park in front of the house. You are just between New Paltz and Kingston, a very central location not far from Woodstock or Rhinebeck. Hiking, swimming, playing and resting, or just being, creating a new project, or healing from a crazy life, it's a good space for all of it. I make my own remedies from plants in my garden, I have put some of them in the loft for you, my hope is that you take advantage of the healing potential that the space has to offer. I live in one of the 3 buildings the first one, painted orange, the second building is a green barn that a friend of me lives in, the third one is the dream loft. The loft is about 1300 square feet in size. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach towels ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen -

Gisela's fabric sculptures added an airiness to the already open space. Everything we needed to enjoy a restful stay was provided, including 3 choices of coffee makers (and a wide variety of teas), ample seating on the deck with a nice view, and a hammock. The surroundings were a nice surprise, with 2 friendly Arabian horses, a trail where our dog could run free leading to a second pond, impressive solar panels, and an enclosed riding arena with a ping-pong table. The downsides were a not-so-comfortable couch and a small dishwasher. But, we would definitely enjoy staying at this unique property again. ##### Frank M.

May 17, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### This is where we fill our cup My husband and I rented Gisela’s special artists loft almost seven years ago when we first started dating. We first rented it in the middle of winter and holed ourselves up in this haven. Years later as a birthday surprise to my husband, I took him back but this time we were able to enjoy the amazing deck and comfortable deck furniture. We cooked (kitchen is very well provisioned), read, napped, fed the horses grass, enjoyed the fire pit, painted (we brought our own paint), did yoga, meditated and bird watched. The energy of this amazing space is definitely a by product of the love that Gisela has poured into it. If you need your cup to be filled, don’t hesitate to book this amazing spot. ##### Cheri-Ann S. Stayed 2 nights in May 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Evelyn F., New York City Apr 1, 2019 #### Interesting space Cabin is like a large dance studio with furniture. Nice kitchen and bath and rural surroundings, especially good if you bring a pup. Very clean. Wouldn’t chance scaling the ladder to sleep in the cramped loft with mattress on the floor. Those who prize a good night’s sleep and who don’t appreciate a very hard “memory foam” mattress with very little memory, placed on a low platform with no headboard, beware. Owner provided a memory foam topper for my second night but it didn’t help much. Yoga mats. ##### Evelyn F. Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lisa Y.

Perfect for personal reflection, natural surroundings, peaceful. Great little kitchen, fantastic amenities, outstanding music on hand. You don't have to be 'well heeled' to become 'well healed' in this secluded, sacred space. We slowed down, breathed it in, hiked and read, and rested.. to the choruses of frogs and crickets at night, and birds of sunny mornings. OUTSTANDING. ##### Dan H.

The studio was lovely and well appointed. We loved that Gisela uses natural cleaners and other products. Bed was super-comfy, deck had great views! ##### Tracy S.

The location is very peaceful if a bit "out of the way" so factor that in for visiting plans. Although ant traps were visible, the large black ants milling around the floors and even on the bed unpleasant. They were few in number but obvious and bothersome nonetheless. ##### David F.
