Hudson Valley
Once a carriage home for a large farming estate, the charming Storm King Lodge is a stately structure from the mid-1700s that's filled to the brim with tasteful furnishings like cozy quilts, deep leather parlor chairs, shiny wooden floors and fresh flowers.
There are four rooms in the main building and two more in a cottage beside the outdoor pool.
