This bed and breakfast is the epitome of a hidden gem! Anybody who is planning on taking a trip upstate is lucky to find themselves here with Maggie, the dogs, and the horses!

Stayed July 2022 We…read morenormally stay in either Kingston or Rhinebeck for a few nights after dropping our twins off at camp in the area. After COVID put everything thing on hold, we were excited to get an opportunity to do this again. We were so happy we chose the Baker House in Rhinebeck for our stay. The B&B is located within walking distance of the center of town which makes it very convenient to avoid driving or worry about getting an Uber after a night in town. The house is beautiful and sits on a sizable property. Our hosts have done a wonderful job of renovating the house and grounds. We stayed in the 'Writer's Room's which was so spacious it should be called the 'Writer's Suite'. The room also had it's own private porch/deck. The bathroom was clean and had a large double shower. The room was such an oasis of relaxation for our stay. George and Sandra were wonderful hosts and offered nice additional touches. There was a happy hour and George provided some delicious cocktails each night as well as good conversation. Sandra's breakfasts were yummy. We appreciated their insight as far as where to eat and places to see in town. After a few years of not traveling, it was great to have such a positive experience to remind us how wonderful travel could be.

The morning coffee and decadent pastries were delicious. Because of time we did not use the firepit outside but the owner went out and purchased new wood when I inquired about using it. We had the Storm King room and absolutely loved the additional room with the view of the side yard. We are absolutely coming back! Don't be scared by the church chimes, they stop at 10pm so you can sleep through the night!

This was our first B&B experience.....and it was wonderful…read more The building is quaint and clean, filled with beautiful antiques. The B&B has 5 rooms, and only the first night it was full. We stayed in the Ivy room on the second floor and only heard the smallest bits of noise from other people coming in. The room was a touch small, but we had a queen bed and a love seat along with a large closet. The bathroom was spectacular, spacious with a Jacuzzi and lots of bubble bath! Breakfast is served at 8:30 am sharp, which I enjoyed, great initiative to get an early start on the day. We shared one large table with everyone and it created a great way to meet the others occupants and learn about things to do in the area. Yvonne is a great cook and each breakfast was delicious. The building has a nice parlor off the living room with lots of books and a TV. We spent an evening in there watching GOT. There is a wonderful font porch with several chairs. And then in the back a large patio. The B&B is a couple blocks from the main intersection of Rhinebeck on the way up to Red Hook. And lastly Yvonne is very knowledgeable of the area, if your looking for what to do she is a great source of ideas. One one minor critique is I wish the room had been a touch warmer.

Situated on a country road that twists and turns just like a country road should, the house dates back to 1717, an auspicious doubling, and is surrounded by a multitude of flowers, sweet and slightly haphazard, many vertical and magically sustained, very English, whilst a black-and-white bunny is given to appearing out of nowhere, and can occasionally be seen hopping down the garden path. Across the road are the home's original barns--rust-red and massive, comforting and stunningly renovated. Inside, the t.v., embraced by couches in which one is tempted to sink into oblivion despite or because of the evening news, is perpetually on, while Bob, a beloved creature with his own gigantic Bob bed, rests below, oblivious to the world's goings-on. The owner of this magical little kingdom is EDITH, originally from Spain, an unforgettable mixture of ostensibly clashing sentiments and devotions. Feisty, opinionated, fun, loving, fun-loving, direct, kind, gutsy, and generous, she is a completely one-of-a-kind character, perhaps, or perhaps not, out of a fairy tale from long ago. The breakfast she produced as though from a hat was superb--a beautiful frittata full of tender, green asparagus served with copious amounts of hot coffee and cream, followed by loaves of a very fine pumpkin bread she made herself. By the end of our too-short sojourn at the Bittersweet, we had begun to think of Edith as a long-lost relative of some sort, and would gladly have moved in with her. We send her all our love.
