About this property

Welcome to Edelweiss Cabin, a charming mountain retreat on eight private acres of woods, stream and meadow, conveniently located near ski resorts and town life in Roxbury, N.Y.

** Check in at noon, check out 2 p.m. -- NO extra fees! **

This open-concept log home is the best of both worlds: With its hand-stripped log pillars and antique accents, Edelweiss feels like it's always been perched on the edge of this serene woodland clearing. Yet its brand-new construction – completed in 2021 – includes these modern conveniences:

* thermostat-controlled radiant-heat floors
* two brand-new full bathrooms
* fully equipped gourmet kitchen with stainless appliances
* smart televisions in the open-concept living area and all three bedrooms
* new washer-dryer on main floor
* strongest wifi available plus Elon Musk's new Starlink satellite internet constellation powered by SpaceX
* outdoor deck with barbecue
* brand-new hot tub
* high-powered air-conditioning unit
* fire pit just waiting for your marshmallows
* complimentary firewood
* complimentary beverages and snacks
* quiet location on a dead-end road

Edelweiss is perfect for anyone looking for a rustic hideaway. It can be a spacious nest for a romantic respite for two, a cozy retreat for a family, or an affordable weekend getaway for a small group.

There are three private bedrooms: two with queen beds, the other with a full-size bed and en-suite bathroom. The loft bedroom includes a daybed with trundle; its bottom mattress can pop up to create a full-plus-size bed.

The cabin's floor-to-ceiling insulation and heated floors will keep you comfy in all seasons. On the chilliest nights, fire up the wood stove. Firewood is complimentary.

On summer evenings, our favorite spot is the covered front porch, where hummingbirds zoom by every few minutes to alight on the many hummer-friendly plants and feeders. Raise a glass, and drink along.

Edelweiss Cabin is short drive to all the Catskill ski areas, including Belleayre, Hunter Mountain, Plattekill and Windham.

Beleayre Ski Trip

Excellent. Beautiful newly renovated cabin. Very clean, close to Belleayre Mountain. Hosts went above and beyond to make us welcome, with Special extra touches like water by side of beds, fresh baked cake to welcome us, hot tub set up and ready to enjoy. Had fun playing games and enjoying the beautiful property. One of the nicest homes we stayed in through VRBO.

Simply Amazing.

I can't say enough good things about this wonderful home. I would award six stars if allowed. I don't normally write reviews but our experience at Edelweiss was so exceptional I felt compelled to share. Literally everything about the cabin and property was perfect and exactly as described. Fred and Denise provide for everything! The cabin was incredibly clean and we immediately felt comfortable. The owners reached out with emails and text messages and ensured they walked us through everything about the property. The property was so peaceful and beautiful. It was the perfect family retreat. We sat by the wood-burning stove, played cards and games, watched TV, soaked in the amazing hot tub, grilled and even chopped wood. We will definitely be coming back and this home may be the start of a new family tradition. Simply amazing. Thank you Denise and Fred!

2nd stay.

This was our 2nd ski weekend at the VBRO. Again, the cabin was as pictured, well stocked clean and comfortable. Enjoyed the axe tossing after a day on the slopes for some laughs. Will stay here again next year. Also, you can refer to my review from last year.

Great find!

A great find! The chalet is very cute and has everything. The owners were very attentive and baked a cake for us and there were drinks in the fridge and coffee, etc. We felt very welcome. We will definitely come back!!

Impeccable cabin for a relaxing getaway

We had a great stay at this well appointed, and impeccably clean, cabin. No detail was forgotten (water, treats, chargers, firewood, etc.) and you felt welcomed as soon as you walked in. The location is private and allows you to enjoy nature and all of the amenities the property offers. It's a good basecamp to explore other areas within the catskills but not it's approx 20 min to any nearby town. The hot tub was top notch. We didn't use the firepit but maybe next time! Overall, we had a wonderful stay and are looking forward to booking again in the future.

About the host

Your host

Your hosts are Denise and Fred. For decades we have spent our free time in this pristine part of the Catskills.
Feel free to contact us if anything is unclear, or you need additional help. That's what we're here for!
When he's not building log cabins, Fred is a technology project manager for financial institutions. Denise is a former Newsday editor and columnist who runs a niche book-publishing company.
For our international friends, Denise, whose parents comes from the Dolomites of the Trentino, speaks Italian. (Try her Ladin as well.) Fred, whose parents come from the rural outskirts of Munich, speaks German with a decidedly Bavarian accent.

Why they chose this property

Fred looked for years for just the right property in the pristine Vega-Denver Valley. Some sites were too soggy, others too steep, still others situated so that they were covered in shadow for most of the day. Fred sited Edelweiss Cabin to take advantage of the sun's trajectory throughout the day and to maximize privacy and views.
