the lady bugs under my bed were a charming touch, if you like sleeping with bugs, which i don't. and yet, after raising this 'minor' issue, instead of an upgrade, i received absolutely nothing. don't even get me started on the breakfast, it definitly woudl ve been nice if they had some better options. just couldn’t recommend this place.

Hundreds of ladybugs under the bed.

The location was beautiful, with nearby kayaking adventures perfect for a family with 4 kids. We enjoyed the lovely garden area, which provided a nice space for the kids to play while we relaxed.

My children wanted more snack options after breakfast.

The private balcony offered great views over Cold Spring Harbor, perfect for relaxation.

The bathroom being down the hallway was inconvenient, especially at night.

Recommend for a trip

Charming room, delightful amenities, perfect location, complete with a comfortable queen size bed for a restful sleep and a modern shower for a refreshing experience, all complemented by a wonderful outdoor dining area to enjoy breakfast.

No issues.

The experience didn't live up to expectations. the room lacked proper curtains, allowing bright lights to invade during the night. The shower temperature was inconsistent, creating discomfort, and the squeaky door made late-night trips to the hallway bathroom nearly impossible. Though the location is nice, the issues with cleanliness, particularly with the musty bedding, overshadowed any positives.

The stay was delightful, especially with the cozy ambiance and stunning views from the Vanderbilt Queen room. I appreciated the modern shower, which was refreshing after a day out exploring nearby hiking trails. Deidre's thoughtful touches made breakfast a highlight, and she offered fantastic dessert recommendations that added to the experience. It was definitely a charming retreat for couples seeking a getaway.

the harbor rose bed & breakfast is a charming retreat next to a forest that invites you for hikes. the spacious room on the top floor was exceptionally clean and perfect for working and relaxing. deidre’s hospitality felt like having a fairy godmother around, appearing right when I needed help.

Parking was limited with only a few spots available, making access a bit challenging.

The Vanderbilt Queen room offered stunning views and cozy ambiance. Parking was a tight squeeze due to limited spots, making access tricky.
