About this property
STUNNING 300 ACRE LAKE ESTATE 1.5 hr away! FAB Boathouse/&Barn for large group.
90 MINS FROM NYC PRIVATE LAKE
300 acres! Fish, swim, hike, volleyball, bike, bonfires & hammock. This is a spectacular retreat!
Just an hour and a half from New York's G.W. Bridge you will find a magical setting to refresh and rejuvenate you. Rustic elegance in a natural setting, Our property offers exclusive privacy for a restorative getaway. Acres of wooded paths for hiking & canoeing on the lake ensures a serene experience.
Escape to a completely private 300 acres and watch the sunset as you fish on the 100 acre lake. Beautifully decorated with Stickley furniture, the natural wood and craftsman touches beckon you to relax, read, canoe, kayak, or enjoy a crackling toasty fire in the wood stove.
This property is unlike any other. 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 want 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.
Come explore all the wonders of the Catskills! 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, world famous rock climbing, bike paths and fisheries, our neighborhood has something for everyone!
Our property sleeps 16 guests total- 4 - 5 in the BOATHOUSE, and an additional 12 in the barn. (There is also a campsite that sleeps 4 - available for an extra fee.)
Start with the BOATHOUSE overlooking the private lake. (Sleeps 4-6).
Our Adirondack style boathouse is at once airy, yet warm and cozy. Full of books and games, it is a place for connection and meditation.
Here is where you will gather, cook meals, play games in front of the wood stove, or dance by the outdoor fire-pit. Swim in the lake, shower in the outdoor shower, canoe or kayak, or just relax in the massage chair.
Then, up a small incline, add the rustic BARN for 12 extra sleeping spaces. Here you can play a game of pool in the large bunk room, or read in a cozy armchair.
