About this house rental
Two hours north of Manhattan lies the pristine Catskill mountains. This charming cape style home is the perfect secluded getaway for those looking to leave it all behind and bask in tranquility. Summertime means blueberries (high bush and low bush), raspberries, blackberries, and cool breezes blowing from the rich lustrous wetland that lays uphill from the main house.
With a covered back porch, and a nice sized front deck, within earshot of one of many babbling brooks, an intact eco-system teeming with frogs, birds, butterflies, porcupines, deer, this is the perfect getaway for a family (or families) looking to create special memories far away from the maddening crowds of the city. The bedrooms are cozy, there's a galley kitchen with electric stove/oven, full size fridge and dishwasher, a spacious living room stocked with puzzles and boardgames, and a small comfortable dining room is set off of the kitchen. Additional amenities include washer/dryer, fire pit, and gas grill. The area is absolutely perfect for cycling, with routes ranging from easy to crushing, depending on your preference. There is also satellite internet, but please note: OUR INTERNET IS NOT RELIABLE ENOUGH OR FAST ENOUGH FOR REMOTE WORK OR SCHOOL.
The 112 acres spans both sides of the road, and includes extensive woodland, streams that occasionally tumble into modest waterfalls, and a large marsh that attracts an extensive bird population.
Here is some recently shot, completely unedited drone footage that gives you a sense of the remoteness of the land and the beauty of the forest surrounding the property (copy and paste the URL into your browser to watch):

We spent the 4th of July week at the property. The house is lovely, the downstairs stayed cool despite not having air conditioning. The screened in porch out back is the ideal place to enjoy a thunderstorm. The kitchen is very well stocked with all utensils necessary to cook and eat. There is also a nice selection of books, puzzles, and outdoors toys available.
The outdoors property is also very beautiful. The forest/ wetland across the road turned out a perfect spot for dog walking. It took us a bit of searching to find our path, but that just made for enjoying the forest a bit longer. A good spot for bird watching, too. I particularly liked observing the family of bluebirds in the yard.
For somebody living normally by a busy road, what struck me the most was just how quiet the area is. There is really nothing else to hear but birds singing.

My wife and I had an amazing time!
The property is incredibly quiet and secluded feeling and its rather large and great for exploration.
If you're looking for a nice quiet place to relax, then look no further!

House around cool nice. Cleaniness poor , dog hair on bedsheets blankets. Looks like they cleaned long ago and dust everywhere inside house. Major problem is our van stuck driveway . We had to call tow truck for escape.
