THIS LISTING IS FOR BOATHOUSE ALONE. THE COMBINATION IS DESCRIBED IN BOATHOUSE/BARN LISTING.

Rustic elegance in a natural setting, the Boathouse offers exclusive privacy for a romantic getaway, or combined with the barn enough space for a fun filled family reunion. 300 acres of hiking, canoeing on the 100 acre lake, and serenity. Please review pricing carefully!

Escape to a completely private 300 acres and watch the sunset as you fish on the 100 acre lake.

INTERACTION WITH GUESTS:

My property manager will greet you, get you settled, and answer any questions you may have.

Though my private residence is next door, it is off limits to renters and is usually not occupied when guests are enjoying their stay. Occasionally, we will be on the property during your stay.

We also have a campsite on our property, located approximately a half a mile around the lake from the barn & boathouse, which we rent out on the Tentrr website. Please note that this campsite may be occupied during your stay. We don't expect much interaction between the two sites, but we do asks that our guests respect each other's time and privacy so that everyone may enjoy their stay.

THE NEIGHBORHOOD:

From the Hudson Valley painters to the hills of Rip Van Winkle, from the old comedy acts of the 50's to the fly fishing camps and wineries of today, The Catskills is a beautiful and historic landscape. Dotted with antique shops and organic ice cream stops, apple farms, music venues, professional theatres, and fisheries, our neighborhood has something for everyone!

PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION

From New York city you can take a train to Middletown New York, and then a 25 minute cab ride to our home. Or, catch the bus at Port Authority which lets you off in Wurtsboro - just a 15 minute cab ride away. Schedules are New Jersey transit for the train, and Short Line for the bus.

OTHER THINGS TO NOTE:

This property is unlike any other just 90 minutes from New York city. It is perfect for the executive who wants to enjoy a country home, but doesn't want to own one... Perfect for the artist who wants to spend a week (or a month) writing the next great novel. Perfect for a warm family reunion, or for the couple who wants to lie in a hammock by the stream and read for hours. Our lake is full of sunfish, largemouth bass, and crappies. Beaver, otters, eagles, Canadian geese, bear, quail, skunk, deer, swan, and great blue heron all make their homes in this unique environment. Occasionally we are visited by the loon, and that is a sound to remember forever.

****PLEASE NOTE: For the safety of our guests, there are EXTERIOR security cameras located around the property. We have a security company that monitors these cameras and will report excessive activity on the property. Please make sure you are adhering to the maximum capacity of the property.

What a beautiful unusual place. Very relaxing and peaceful. The boathouse had an old world feel with just enough tech to get by. We wanted a peaceful place to visit with our son. This place was perfect. Nature was a soothing part of this. We saw otters lots of ducks and geese. There were rivers all over. There were signs of bear and fox. It was a nature lovers paradise. The pizza in town was wonderful too.

My husband and I decided to spend our 50th wedding anniversary at this beautiful location. We enjoyed the lovely atmosphere. We will return often and soon. We have come here several times with family but decided to spend our special time together to reflect on the blessings of 50years together.

This was the perfect place for my family and I to get away for a cozy winter weekend. The house was beautiful and the view was fantastic. We spent most of the weekend curled up by the wood burning stove. We’d love to come back in the summer to stay again and enjoy the lake!

We had a such an enjoyable visit. My husband and I, our daughter and her husband, and two of our grandchildren all came together for a fun and restful time. The property is delightfully beautiful. The property manager, Scott, was helpful and friendly. My grandson loved his time so much he asked us to come back again. The owner could not be more hospitable. We will most certainly come back again.
