About this house rental

Welcome to The Mountain House & Cottage at Seminary Hill, a serene haven perched atop a ridge overlooking the Delaware River, where the beauty of nature unfolds through breathtaking views in every direction.

This rustic retreat, built from timber felled on the property, offers a unique blend of simplicity and comfort, making it the ideal destination for those seeking a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of the city.

Step inside and feel the warmth of a home thoughtfully designed to bring the outdoors in. Kilim rugs grace the wooden floors, adding a touch of color and texture to the cozy, understated interiors. The home's centerpiece is a two-story stone fireplace constructed with stones sourced directly from the land, where you can gather around with loved ones to share stories and create memories.

With 65 acres of private trails to explore, The Mountain House & Cottage is your gateway to adventure. Whether hiking through the woods in the warmer months or cross-country skiing in the winter, the natural beauty surrounding this property invites you to reconnect with the great outdoors.

When you're ready to unwind, the historic charm of Main Street Callicoon, offering quaint restaurants, shops, and more, is just a short drive away.

This home is as versatile as it is custom, perfect for large gatherings, romantic getaways, or even intimate weddings. The apple orchard directly on the property adds a special touch to any event. The spacious layout accommodates up to 10 guests, with well-appointed bedrooms spread across the main house and a cozy guest cottage.

From the primary suite with its private porch and jacuzzi tub to the charming upstairs reading nooks, every corner of the home has been designed with your comfort in mind.

The outdoor spaces are just as inviting, with a BBQ grill, an outdoor fire pit, and plenty of spots to take in the breathtaking views. Whether you're savoring your morning coffee on the porch or gathering around the fire pit under a canopy of stars, The Mountain House & Cottage offers a unique experience that blends nature's tranquility with the comforts of home.

As your hosts, we welcome you as family and are here to ensure your stay is nothing short of exceptional. Everything on the estate is for your personal use, from the well-equipped kitchen to the private trails. We're also happy to provide recommendations for local activities, dining, and more, so you can make the most of your time in this beautiful corner of Callicoon.
