I am a computer artist from California who is looking for a change of scene. My contracts for the forseeable future give me the luxury of working from where ever I can get HIgh Speed internet access.
For personal reasons Upstate South of Albany near Kerhonkson/ New Paltz / Stone Ridge is attractive and I am wondering what is the best resource for finding rental properties in that area. I am looking for something smaller as it will just be myself and I would like to keep my costs down. Thanks in advance |

Hey BrickArtist and Bob,
My wife and I are both photographers too and just closed last week on a home in Palenville, about 10 miles west of Catskill. Incredibly beautiful country with broadband access but may be too sleepy for some. For us, after living in the Dallas areas for years, it's a welcome change. ;^) We're looking forward to meeting our neighbors and making new friends when we actually get there in a few weeks. And when spring comes (and the plow-spread gravel is gone from the turns), I'll be looking for fellow motorcyclists to ride those terrific back roads! Dan |

I really liked the whole area near Woodstock, Phoenicia, etc and had a real estate broker check out property for about 2 months. In the end, I thought I might be too isolated and cold Upstate, and moved to New Mexico. In many ways I regret that decision because if truth be told NYS has more to offer than most places, and in this neck of the woods you are thinking about you have lots of services and choices.
I'd get me a real estate broker to do my looking, after spelling out what you want, make a visit or three, have some great brunch downtown Phoenicia and a late afternoon a cuppa in Woodstock and look around. I saw some interesting places in West Hurley, too, now that I think about it. It is packed with people interested in art, and doing art. I believe Phoenicia has a new cooperative gallery and just down the road is Saugerties (which has a coop I've visited several times). Good luck, that nostalgia is setting in here in the SW ![]() |

Ontheroad, funny you want to go NYS and I want to go to NM LOL!
Those areas are nice, but no place is perfect. North into ulster county NY is very quiet.. Brick artist- I prefer Wallkill area, Rosendale, Gardner, Lake Minnewaska area. New Paltz is a very alternative town and I find it overpriced. Montgomery offers some very reasonable rentals including WaterWheel Apartments and Squire Village (never been inside those tho) or you can even rent out a basement. New Paltz does have an apartment complex as well and rentals should be easy to find. For rentals you should check out the Times Herald Record. There area also rental search sites online. Here is the link to the Record. http://www.recordonline.com Good luck! |

I just came across your post about moving to upstate NY and how to find out about rentals. You may already have moved here (or elsewhere), but just in case, check out Ulster publishing - listings are for Woodstock area, Stone Ridge, High Falls, Rosendale, New Paltz, Kerhonkson, and more.
