As a photographer, artist, and certified wellness and bodybuilding coach, I’ve made it my mission to discover and highlight the most stunning wellness travel getaways in the Hudson Valley and Catskills. And let me tell you—this spot is a summer dream come true.
Stir, Shake, Sip – Mixology at the Farmhouse
If you know me, you know that a vacation isn’t complete without a little artisanal mixology. At the Storm King Farmhouse, I found the perfect setup to shake things up—literally. Tucked neatly on a floating shelf above the kitchen counter is a beautiful copper bar set courtesy of Alluvion Vacations, just waiting for your next signature creation.
This is more than just a pretty aesthetic—it’s a full-on invitation to indulge in the craft of cocktail making. Whether you’re pouring a Bourbon Old Fashioned, muddling mint for a fresh Mojito, or getting fancy with a lavender-infused martini, the farmhouse kitchen is ready to become your private cocktail lab.
I personally loved preparing drinks inspired by local ingredients from the Hudson Valley—think herbal garnishes, seasonal fruits, and small-batch spirits from nearby distilleries.

Mixology here isn’t just about taste—it’s about experience. It’s about grounding yourself in the moment, clinking glasses with friends by the fire, or sipping something bold while soaking in the hot tub. It’s wellness, joy, and just the right touch of indulgence.
Pro tip: Try making your own kombucha cocktails like Ember & Ivy or wellness mocktails using fresh citrus and Hudson Valley honey. They’re perfect for that post-hike glow or a night in with the stars.
A Taste of History Meets Poolside Luxury
Nestled in the picturesque town of Cornwall, just minutes from Storm King Art Center, this lovingly restored farmhouse is equal parts cozy and elegant. Inside, you’ll find rustic exposed beams, stone accents, and modern amenities that blend seamlessly with the old-world charm.
Step outside, and you’re instantly greeted by lush garden, forest views, a private pool, and hot tub—yes, that’s your summer sorted.

Summer in the Hudson Valley – More Than Just a Destination
Hudson Valley summers are pure magic. Whether you’re floating in the pool with a glass of Hudson Valley rosé, hiking the nearby Black Rock Forest, or just basking in the sun, this region delivers peace, beauty, and rejuvenation in every direction.
My favorite ritual? A deep tissue stretch by the window nook, a cold plunge in the pool, followed by a dip in the hot tub and some aromatherapy with a lavender and cedarwood diffuser—yes, they’ve got those too. Read more about aromatherapy at Alluvion vacation rentals.
