While the location of this home was beautiful and the home itself was very pretty, upon arrival we found that there was a significant "flying ant" problem in the great room area. We were unable to enjoy this main room because there were dead insects all over the floor and while sitting on the couches we would find these bugs crawling on us. It was disgusting. We were also looking forward to using the hot tub mentioned in the description and there was no hot tub to be found. I sent a message to the owner to find out where the hot tub could be accessed and I was ignored. This property was absolutely not worth the price we paid given these issues.

Such a beautiful home, in a gorgeous setting! This was a perfect place for extended family to stay while in the Catskills to attend a wedding. Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful and relaxing Memorial Day weekend in Windham. The house was secluded, but still close to the downtown area of restaurants and shops. We enjoyed morning coffee on the deck with the direct view of the mountains and also our evenings out by the fire pit. The house was clean and comfortable and offered plenty of amenities. The online photos did not do it justice! We would definitely stay here again, maybe this time in the winter.

Although we did not ski in Windham, we loved staying here. This is our fifth year in this lovely town and we are never disappointed. Our stay in this beautiful house was such a treat. So very comfortable/cozy and loved having pool table, tv, and foosball in the basement.
Thank you Laura.

We had a really wonderful time, it was a beautiful house and so perfect for a weekend get away with 3 families. We had several kids under 8, and 3 couples and it was a perfect size and layout to be totally more than comfortable. We didn’t have great weather, but the property when we were able to be outside was beautiful and it was very convenient to town. Would definitely rent again and highly recommend!

The house itself it spacious and beautiful, very tastefully decorated. Because of the way it's set up and supplied, there's a lovely sense of welcome and hospitality. The landscape is glorious and there is a feeling of privacy -- no neighbors right nearby. We were there with small children and were pleasantly surprised to find buckets of toys and a very nice swing and slide set on the property. The kitchen was well-stocked. It really couldn't have been better. Laura, the owner, was very helpful and responsive.

We were looking to have a nice ski weekend before winter ran out. We saw this lovely home online and it was even better in person. Clean, new, such a cool log home. It's a beautiful property very close to Windham Mt. Whenever we had a question, the property owner/manager responded very promptly. Great family home, we highly recommend it.

My family and I spent Thanksgiving and had a wonderful stay. The basement was great entertainment for the teens and everyone enjoy the fire pit.
Owner was excellent in communication and directions.

We did enjoy our stay. More than enough room for our family of 6 adults, young child and baby. Property was very rustic, with wildlife surrounding us and a beautiful view of Hunter Mountain. Owner might want to consider addressing the ant problem as we had some additional guests dropping in unannounced.

This is a beautiful property surrounded by nature. We were a group of eight (5 adults and 3 kids ages 7, 9, and 11). We found the cabin to be very clean and full of enjoyable amenities: from waking up each morning to breakfast on the deck with a view of the mountain, to s'mores at night by the fire pit, to playing on the jungle gym, to pool, ping pong and foosball inside when it rained. We highly recommend the property and would stay here again.

First, our family recommends the home, amenities and properties as a 5 STAR experience! Location is fairly private with forested areas all around to our liking. The home is very expansive with 3 levels perfect for at least 3 families to have separate privacy. The garage allowed us to have a staging area to move in and move out as well as prepare for our daily activities. Inside the house, we experience a well designed space with accommodating, sizable bathrooms and bedrooms. The kitchen is very practical and perfect for cooking. The family room is spacious with good seating and wide side windows to enjoy the outside world. In the basement, we were very pleased with the available entertaining activities that included a foosball table, ping pong table, and pool table. Also the basement floor has a sofa sitting area with a TV for viewing. There is a big cache of children's toys, which were also a big hit for our kids!
Outside, is a children's playset, a rope swing and big open area, and our children enjoyed these immensely.
The driveway is very expansive allowing for parking for many vehicles. The front porch was great in the early morning hours to sit on the swing or rocking chairs and the side deck was perfect in the early evening to use the rustic table and chairs for eating or playing games.
The firepit was also a big hit for our family as we sat out to very late hours just enjoying the nighttime experience and burning a fire.
A very BIG plus with the property is the power generator. We experienced a Utility Company power outage that affected 12,000 patrons, including us around 6:30AM one day and the generator acted like a true warrior kicking in to preserve our power in the house while the Utility Company fixed the problem over the next 4 hours. An A PLUS! We can't say enough how grateful were were not to lose power when others suffered!
The last reviewer commented that they had water problems. This was NOT the case for us. The owners acted responsibly to resolve the mechanical problem before our time at the house and informed us of the resolution prior to our visit. We had plenty of water.
Our only recommendation is that the owners consider adding a small chest freezer to either their pantry or garage to allow for guests to store their frozen foods. Overall we had a fabulous time and would come back!

The house is very pretty and conveniently located to Windham mountain (5 mins) and Hunter (18 mins). We we impressed as we drove up and loved the fire pit with views of windham mountain.
Unfortunately on our first day there the house ran out of water. We contacted Laura around 8am to notify her of the issue. Luckily we had enough water bottles on hand to brush teeth and make coffee but we unable to use the toilets and shower before heading to skiing. We returned from the mountain around 4pm and no one had been to the house yet to address the issue and there was no follow up to provide a status update. We called again and a plumber was a sent over to investigate the problem. He arrived by 5pm and explained this is a recurring issue with this house. There is a 180 gallon water tank in the basement where water is pumped from a well and filtered. The plumber showed us a manual workaround for the problem by bypassing the filtration system so we could refill the tank. He advised not to drink the water. At least we could now shower and use the toilets. We had to manually refill this each day of our visit which caused some inconvenience but at least made our stay manageable. Laura apologized and offered us a $250 credit for the inconvenience but as of now, 3 weeks later, she has not responded to 3 separate massages from us so I’m assuming that’s never coming.
Some other things to note- the home homeowners have not separated their personal items from public spaces. Drawers were full with their personal items and the refrigerator and freezer were over 50% full leaving little space to store the food we brought. As for trash removal, the waste management facility is a few minutes drive away to drop off your waste but your recycling waste streams must be broken down into 6 different sources in order for them to take the items (light cardboard, heavy cardboard, light plastic, heavy plastic, aluminum cans and general trash). While recycling waste was free to drop off it was $2 a bag for kitchen size waste bags to be disposed. This could be more clearly specified in the house instructions as it took additional time to separate everything out at the waste site for proper disposal.
Overall, the house is pretty and has a great location but based on the lack of responsiveness from homeowner and the indication the water challenges are a frequently recurring problem I would not recommend anyone stay at this property until suitable repairs are made.

Our family of 7 had a wonderful weekend stay in this beautiful home. There was plenty of space and lots of beds. It was pristine and bright and comfortable for all. Windham Mountain and restaurants are a very short drive away. We look forward to returning!

This cabin in the Catskills was exactly what we were looking for. The gorgeous home was picture perfect upon our arrival, for which we were provided detailed instructions on directions and the easy, contactless check-in. Our hosts were very responsive and helpful, even providing us local recommendations. We then enjoyed a weekend in nature with a beautiful indoor fireplace and outdoor firepit. Close to hikes, restaurants, grocery & gas. Plenty to do outdoors or in the Rec room style basement with fooseball, ping pong, and a pool table. I recommend this property to anyone looking for the perfect getaway with wonderful hosts!
