The Mae House

$$$ | SLEEPS 6 | Athens, NY

Welcome to The Mae House, a thoughtfully renovated family-friendly respite set on a spacious five-lot property in the quiet village of Athens, NY. With community and mutual aid at the center, The Mae House sees rest as liberation and offers sliding scale rates and free of charge residencies to BIPOC guests, made possible by funds from full rate guest stays. Just 15 minutes from Hudson and 2.5 hours from NYC, every inch of this 173-year-old colonial-style home tells a story, from tiles to furniture. Hand-picked vintage items grace this eclectic three-bedroom, three-bath home, which comes stocked with everything one needs for a comfortable stay. Cook your meals in the dine-in kitchen while the kids explore the children’s den, curated with a variety of books and toys, or have them poke around the mudroom for soccer balls, hula hoops and other toys perfect for taking outside. Pick vegetables from the garden, take in the mountain views from the porch, or create your own private outdoor cinema for a backyard movie night. If you’re looking to explore, look no further than Hudson for a packed day of incredible culture, art galleries, restaurants, specialty boutiques and antique shops. Later, take a stroll to savor dinner and drinks al fresco at the timeless Stewart House in Athens, a gorgeous boutique hotel on the Hudson River waterfront, not to mention a great destination for live music.
