Moving downstairs, the ground floor hosts the third bedroom, where a king bed awaits for a restful night's sleep.
Step outdoors where a spacious wrap-around deck invites you to savor captivating al fresco dining. As the sun sets, casting golden hues across the sky, the area transforms into a peaceful retreat for relaxation in our hot tub. Alternatively, gather with friends around the welcoming fire pit, where flickering flames dance in harmony with the crisp mountain air. These outdoor pleasures will elevate your stay while crafting enduring moments beneath the expansive, star-studded night sky.
Guest Access:
Our smart home features make accessing the home stress-free! You will receive your personalized code to enter the property 3 days prior to arrival. We suggest you download and save the access codes, WiFi instructions, and directions to the property prior to making the drive, as cell phone service can be spotty in the Catskill region. The driveway and parking area is plowed in winter, but a four-wheel drive is recommended to explore the area.
The Neighborhood:
Welcome to our serene retreat just 5 minutes away from the vibrant communities of Margaretville and Arkville! Nestled in the heart of the Catskill Mountains, our house provides the ideal blend of tranquility and convenience. Margaretville, known for its charming boutiques and inviting eateries such as Trattoria Locale and Binnekill Tavern, beckons you to explore its warm atmosphere. In Arkville, outdoor enthusiasts can partake in the historic Delaware and Ulster Rail Ride, or indulge in various activities like hiking and fishing. The surrounding Catskill Mountains offer a sanctuary for nature lovers, with must-visit spots like Belleayre Mountain for skiing and Belleayre Beach for a relaxing day by the water. The neighboring towns of Roxbury, the home to the Andes Hotel and Wayside Cider, add to the allure with their unique attractions and cultural festivals.
Getting Around:
Bringing or renting a car is highly recommended as Uber, Lyft and Taxi service in the area can be limited. Four-wheel drive is encouraged in the winter months for safety on potentially slick and snowy roads. We have snow plowing service to keep the driveway clear, but it can be slippery after a fresh snowfall or freeze.
