A new business is changing the way Hudson Valley residents can host local events ranging from private parties to film premiers... and everything in between.

Apple's trademarked slogan, "There's an App for That" may have been coined in 2009, but the phrase has never rang more true than in 2024. From famous companies like Airbnb that let users rent private homes to lesser-known endeavors like Sniffspot, which provides private yard rentals for local dogs and their owners, the possibilities seem endless. Now, there's a new option for the Hudson Valley.

Peerspace Has Arrived in the Hudson Valley, NY

The newest arrival to the peer-to-peer rental marketplace is called Peerspace, and it's already been embraced by some of the most unique properties in the area. From churches and yoga studios to clubs and storefronts, there seems to be a location for every scenario to rent by the hour. Here's how it works:

How Peerspace Works

Similarly to Airbnb (and Sniffspot for that matter), it all begins with a search. Peerspace asks you which type of event you are planning (baby shower, wedding, movie shoot, etc.) and your desired location. Then, all matches appear with hourly rental rates (below). Some local options are truly exceptional.
