About this house rental

Welcome to your perfect Catskills getaway! Nestled on a sprawling 5-acre lot, this serene home offers breathtaking mountain and forest views, just minutes from year-round outdoor activities. Located less than 8 minutes from skiing and only a short drive to fishing, swimming, hiking, shopping, and dining, this house promises both adventure and relaxation. Outdoor Features: Step onto the expansive wrap-around deck to enjoy panoramic views of the surrounding landscape. Whether you’re watching wildlife, grilling dinner, or simply reading a book while listening to the tranquil sounds of the nearby mountain creek, this outdoor space is ideal for unwinding. The deck is fully furnished with a large umbrella, two dining tables, chairs, and benches, perfect for gatherings. At night, cozy up by the fire pit in Adirondack chairs, with plenty of firewood provided for your enjoyment. The Space: This private three-bedroom, two-bathroom home comfortably accommodates your entire group. From the peaceful sound of the creek, which can be heard from both the deck and the second-floor bedroom, to the high-speed Wi-Fi (over 282 mbps) that covers the entire property, every detail is designed to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The home features thermostats in every room, and a wood-burning stove/fireplace with complimentary firewood to keep you warm on cooler days. For warmer months, window air conditioning units in the upstairs bedrooms and living room keep the space cool, though the large tree shading the house naturally maintains a pleasant temperature.

One of the rooms also includes a computer desk and office chair for privacy and remote work.

Living Room: The cozy living room is perfect for entertainment or relaxation, featuring a Roku TV, 5-speaker stereo system, and a selection of board games. For colder days, relax by the wood-burning stove or enjoy indoor activities like electronic darts. A newly updated washer and dryer are available for your convenience, along with complimentary laundry detergent. Kitchen & Dining: The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need for meal preparation, including a large 4-burner stove with griddle, dishwasher, refrigerator, microwave, and a coffee maker with espresso, cappuccino, and iced coffee options. Complimentary coffee beans, spices, cookware, and utensils are provided. The dining room features a spacious table with ample seating for your group. Parking: Parking is available for two cars beside the house, with additional parking below the house just a short 50-70 foot walk away. Additional Information: Please note that the house is located on a private road, which may be a bit bumpy. However, we navigate it easily in our Hyundai Kona and wanted to give you a heads-up in advance. Come enjoy the natural beauty and tranquility of the Catskills while leaving your worries behind. This charming retreat is ready to welcome you for an unforgettable stay!

We had a great stay here. It was a bit of a tight fit for 8 people (as the hosts let us know beforehand) but it was still a really nice stay. We had a lot of friends interested once they saw where we were going! 😁 The house had everything we needed- comfortable beds, stocked kitchen and gorgeous fire pit, deck and hot tub! The hosts answered all of our many questions quickly. A highlight was going to nearby Belleayre beach- recommended by our hosts! It’s a stunning little lake surrounded by a mountain with a nice bathrooms, shade under trees and a snack bar! We got food at the nearby, trendy Phoenicia Diner twice and cooked as well. It is definitely a bit remote, but that’s what we wanted so we could stargaze!! We turned off all the lights and had a beautiful view of the sky. Thanks again Maria and Vitaly!!

Idyllic week away and unplugged. Maria and Vitaly’s place is secluded and tranquil. Home is balanced and comfortable. The natural surroundings are blissful. Keep in mind you are surrounded by nature. During my stay viewed a black bear (twice), deers, a family of woodchucks, raccoons a ton of different birds including hummingbirds a whole lotta insects and butterflies. Maria was very responsive! Would definitely love to visit again!
