POOL AVAILABILITY & HEATING: The pool is open during the warmer months from mid-April to October 14th. If confirmed available, there is a $150/day fee for pool heating at this home.
Once the heating fee is settled, the pool will be set to an auto-non-adjustable 77-82°F degrees to avoid bacterial growth.
Please contact the Concierge team at least 72 hours before your arrival if you want the pool heated for your stay between the months mentioned.
Note: Pool service is scheduled every Tuesday at Wander Hudson Ridge. While we aim to minimize any inconvenience, please be aware that the service team may need to access the pool area briefly during your stay.
CELL SERVICE You may experience cell service disruption in this part of New York. To ensure you have no issue with arrival, please be sure to program your GPS ahead of time in a service area.
OFF-GRID HOME Wander Hudson Ridge may have limited cell reception for select carriers, so we recommend taking a screenshot of the WiFi login ahead of your arrival to avoid disruption.
NO SMOKING No smoking or vaping inside. Open flames including candles are also prohibited. Exceptions are birthday candles or fire in a designated fire pit or fireplace. A fine of $1,000 will be applied to any guest found violating this policy.
SAFETY NOTICE Due to ongoing dry weather, several local towns have implemented a burn ban. Please remain FIRE AWARE, as gusty winds and extremely dry conditions pose a heightened risk. We recommend refraining from any outdoor burning until conditions improve with anticipated rain.
PET FEE & POLICY This home is pet-friendly and welcome to your furry friends during your stay. However, I do have some rules and a pet fee to preserve our home’s delicate luxury furniture and linens.
• Pets are strictly prohibited in beds, indoor or outdoor furniture, or spa facilities. • Pet owners will be responsible for damage and charged through their payment on file. • Our pet fee is $350/stay, charged at check-out. The fee goes to the cleaner for the extra work required after a pet stays.
NOTE: This fee does not cover damage by breaking the pet policy rules. Please note that we’ll be charging any extra damages done to the property by your pet.
EVENTS Parties or events are not allowed unless prior written approval is given by our team. Failure to comply with this policy will result in a fine.
