Welcome to The Red Hook Country Inn, located in the quaint Village of Red Hook, 2 hours north of NYC & CENTRAL NJ and 3 hours south of BOSTON. The Village of Red Hook is surrounded by rolling hills, small farms, historic sites, and breathtaking vistas of the Catskills and Berkshire Mountains. Our Red Hook Country Inn Bed and Breakfast is an excellent base to pursue activities, as we are only 2 miles to Bard College & Fischer Performing Art Center, 5 miles north of Rhinebeck, 8 miles east of historic Kingston, NY's first capitol, 15 minutes north of Hyde Park and 25 minutes south of Hudson, NY.
Numerous historic sites are nearby including FDR family homes and library, Wilderstein (home of Daisy Suckley, long time confident who gave FDR his beloved dog FALA) and Mills Mansions, Clermont (home of the first steamboat, ie, ' The Clermont'), Montgomery Place (the house is now open on Fridays with magnificent river view and garden walking paths), and the famed home of Frederick Church, the father of the Hudson Valley School of Art, Olana (built of mosaic tile with a 360* view of the Hudson River, Catskill, Berkshire and Taconic Mountains.

The Red Hook Country Inn & BARD
Online and offline reviews:
Brian P, a parent staying at the inn (4/15/10) said that "our having a 'community breakfast' for the Bard families during their college tour is a valuable experience as we are meeting families from all over the country, sharing experiences about the many colleges they have or will see as they make their college decisions".
Although the many online trip advice sites are great, we receive letters all the time that do not end up on the review websites and we'd love you to take a minute to read some of them!
From Molly in Maine! 7/09 (names changed to protect the innocent!)
Dear Red Hook Inn Owners (who I can't remember the names of!)
This is Molly ****** from Maine. I brought our daughter Ruby to visit Bard last spring & we stayed with you. My dad brought her back for a second look in the fall and they stayed with you again. I remember that you said that everyone who stays at The Red Hook Inn and applies to Bard gets accepted. (of course, this is 'heresay' only!!!).Well, you were right!
Rube got into Bard and though she chose a different school that suits her better I wanted you to know that your record still stands! Maybe we'll bring our other daughter to visit Bard in the fall. If so, we'll be sure to stay with you guys! Editor's note..Molly brought daughter # 2 and she's been accepted!
Love, Molly.

Hi Pat, Just wanted to let you know that the magic of your inn is still working- Sarah got into Bard after staying at your lovely inn before her IDP day last week. Thanks so much for helping to allay our anxiety! Your warmth and hospitality really helped change the tone of the experience for us. Joan (and Sarah). Editor's note..Sarah and Mom visited again last week to make the 'final decision'!
Dear Pat,
I wanted to write and let you know that your record still holds . . . Kent was accepted to Bard following his Immediate Decision Interview! Bard is the only college Kent applied to and he has all ready sent in his commitment form to attend in the fall. I was wondering if I could make reservations at the Red Hook Inn for the August move-in weekend and also Parents weekend. How about Graduation 2014? Kent and I both enjoyed our stay at the Inn and your gracious hospitality. I look forward to future visits. Thank you again, Jenifer
