SKI SEASON DURING COVID TIMES
Hunter mountain has on the website requirements for prior purchases of tickets and prior reservations so they could limit the number of guests on the mountain to keep everyone safe. So before you book our home for ski season make sure to book your tickets and days on the mountain to avoid disappointment. It is very likely that Windham mountain will be having similar policy.
We have motion activated recording surveillance cameras outside and inside the mud room prior to entering the house.
The cameras are installed at the following locations for multiple reasons: at driveway, mudd room ( the room where guests leave shoes prior to entering the house) , porch, grill, with firepit and playhouse.
Our quaint and intimate chalet style home offers heart stopping views of mountains, quick access to hiking and biking trails, state parks, lakes, organic farms, minutes to shops, restaurants and Windham (2 miles) and Hunter Mountain(7.9 miles) resorts.
Our home is not childproof and is suitable for children over 2 and up, couples, singles and families.
As the daylight fades enjoy making homemade meals in our well equipped kitchen and on the grill while being invigorated by fresh mountain air and listening to the crickets. Have a great conversation over dinner at a farm style table for 12, roast the marshmallows and cozy up in front of the fireplace while sinking into plush velvet arm chairs and sofa and sipping the hot cocoa or a glass of wine. Wake up to the abundance of sunshine and enjoy lazy breakfasts while finishing the puzzle from the night before. Go for a stroll to a coffee shop, visit a local farm, get fresh produce, have a real farm to table picnic on the lawn in front of the house overlooking the mountains. When not sunny, enjoy our comfortable living room with plenty of table games and lots of positive memories to create, read a book about Catskills, have a relaxing nap in a comfortable bed with crispy white sheets and plenty of comforters, wake up and repeat.
The views are particularly striking at sunset when the sun light touches the top of the mountains with the gold shimmer.
If you wake up early in the morning you might catch a glimpse of three deer that like to visit our 1.6 acres property. It always fun to watch squirrels and chipmunks on the porch during the day.
KITCHEN:
Our kitchen is equipped with all sorts of pots and pans, knifes, grilling utensils and matching sets of cups, plates, glasses for groups of 15.
The kitchen cabinets are stocked with spices and condiments, refrigerator always has souces and coffee in the freezer.
We also provide additional sets of tableware and multiple sets of napkins, table place mats and a variety of tablecloths for intimate dinning.
LIVING ROOM:
Our living room is designed for a variety of activities. It features comfortable sofa and armchairs with upholstered ottoman and footstools for additional comfort.
There is a smaller nook with round table for 6 for breakfasts and table games.
There is also a large farm style dining table for 12 with benches and dining chairs.
The long shelving offers Catskills info, table games for all ages and books.
Alexa music system adds the sound background of your choosing.
BEDROOMS:
We change new 100% cotton towels and sheets every three months to keep them fresh and crisp for our guests. All mattresses are posturepedic grade.
SURVELLIANCE CAMERAS:
We have active video surveillance cameras outside the house and in the mud room prior to entering the house.
GRILL:
Our guests are welcome to use the grill. However the propane cost is not included in the base booking price. It is the guests responsibility to refill the propane tank. If they do not refill the tank we charge $40 because we need to pay the cleaning lady to drive somewhere to do so.
It is a true country home next to forest area. We have deer and very rarely when no one is around bears come to the property and other wildlife. That is why it is important that the grill is kept clean and covered at all times. If you use the grill you must clean it and scrap it well before closing. The food remnants attract wildlife that can destroy it.
CLEANING FEE EXPLANATION:
The cleaning fee covers basic cleaning: sweeping, dusting, bathroom cleaning, washing sheets and towels and resetting the beds, vacuum cleaning and washing the floors. All extra cleaning will charged based on amount of additional hours our cleaning specialist has to spend.
DRIVEWAY USE IN WINTER
Please be aware that you need to have a four wheel drive car to be able to come up our driveway when there is a lot of snow. Even if the driveway is plowed and sanded because it is on in-incline the regular car will not be able to come up. You can park at the bottom of the driveway.

Cozy and comfortable place. Driveway was steep but the host gave us a heads up about driving with AWD/4WD which was appreciated. Fireplace was nice and we enjoyed that.

We were a group of 12, adults and children. The property is nice and the owners were so insightful and very easy to communicate with. She gave us ideas on what to do and places to go. Anytime I reached out to her I received a response within moments. We had a really great time.

Nice and quiet area. Beautiful views. House was clean and ready for visitors. Very good communication with the owner. I really recommend that place. I hope i find more time to visit this place again...👍🙂
6.0 / 10.0Average·Feb 2025
Look, we went to Windham on a very snowy weekend, but it wasn’t until after booking that we were told we’d need a four-wheel-drive car to get up the driveway (which luckily we had). Had I known the driveway was so steep and that there were more than 10 stairs that were also very steep and icy leading up to the house I would not have rented this place. When my two-year-old dropped her pacifier under the bed we found mouse droppings, food wrappers, and other peoples socks. At first glance, the place looks good and clean, but when you take a deeper look, we were disappointed and disgusted. Many lightbulbs were out or missing. Doesn’t seem like someone is taking good care of this property. I do not think we should be charged the cleaning fee as this house revealed in the course of our three nights there that it was very dirty. The owners were abroad so communication was difficult, but she did give me The property managers, phone number so I had direct contact with that person.
