Your back door opens right onto Mt Sherrill! Enjoy coffee, lunch and a glass of wine or local craft beer watching the clouds move amid mountains or June bugs over an extensive field. Brand-new Solo stove delivers more fire enjoyment with less smoke. Renovated with a brand-new bathroom, kitchen, luxury mattresses and bedding, this modern 1800's barn with authentic details sits on the picturesque street in one of the most beautiful Catskills villages, West Kill ("West Creek" in old Dutch). This is a hikers' and nature lovers' paradise, which is also the fly-fishing capital of the world -- the shallow pristine creek is just across the street is a source of drinking water for NYC. The creek is perfect for kits: picturesque, super-clean and home to many exciting animals like frogs and trout!

We love European-style bedding and hope you do too! All blankets are duvets and are enclosed in duvet covers that we thoroughly wash between each visit. As a result, all the surfaces you touch in the bed are clean and you do not have to ever touch a comforter that could have been used by someone else like you would in many hotels. That also means that you do not need a flat sheet -- we hope you find that the duvet cover is a more comfortable and practical solution!

About the host

Hi, We love NYC and the mountains. In West Kill, in particular, mountains are everywhere, the nature is pristine (this area is part of NYC watershed), and life could not be simpler and better, especially when it is filled with all the modern conveniences!

Why they chose this property

Let Sherrill Mountain (elevation 3540 ft.) be your backyard. In addition to spectacular views and pet-friendly meadow, enjoy the pristine West Kill creek across the street behind the church (or another public access point along Spruceton Road), and camp and explore nature at another creek nestled in a private 5-acre forest we own 15 minutes away on the back of Hunter Mountain (instructions provided with check-in)!

Enjoy mountains and trout creeks all around. Drive 15 Minutes to Tannersville, Phoenicia and Windham Villages for great restaurants and more. Hike to North Dome, Devil's Path+!

A pristine shallow (1-2 ft deep) West Kill creek, a source of drinking water in NYC, is just across the street. It is rejuvenating, filled with trout, and is great fun for grown ups and kids of all ages. Chipmunks, woodchucks, deer and hummingbirds are abundant for nature spectating.

Enjoy the latest climate control, hot water and newest appliances, as well as comfortable beds and a full kitchen, in this 1800's converted farmhouse with preserved original touches and unobstructed mountain views!

Grab the best views and the freshest air! Enjoy the beauty of an exquisite 19-century village, with all the modern comforts. Indulge in nature and hiking and in the charm of local villages and neighboring Tannersville.

Enjoy clear air and tranquility.

Yes, we have WiFi, brand-new washer/dryer, renovated kitchen and bathroom, plates and silverware!

What makes this property unique

Our Top 10 Favorite Things to do near Hunter Mountain Cabin:
10. The World's largest kaleidoscope and Woodnotes, the restaurant, that serves a very nice breakfast (white tablecloths), both at the Emerson complex on 28.
9. Horseriding: Mountain Brook Farm and Dancing Horse Farm in Windham.
8. If you like history: a former Colgate mansion, is now a Deer Mountain Inn, and is open to the public as a restaurant.
7. Windham movie theater: you sit on plush couches, enjoying food, while watching a big-screen performance.
6. Local brew: West Kill brewing at the end of Spruceton Road.
5. Hangout: Spruceton Inn was once a haunt of Arnold Swartzenegger.
4. Culture: Tannersville offers a number of options, including art galleries and music venues. Tannersville also has the best fun lunch: Mama's Boy in Tannersville is a pure joy.
3. Hiking: We are within 5-15 minutes from the best hiking trails Catskills has to offer. Trails lead up Hunter Mountain to the fire tower from the end of the Spruceton road.
2. Dining: Peek-a-Moose in Pine Hill is a tasteful dinner conglomerate run by ex-Gramercy Tavern chef that includes a formal dining room, great bar with local beer, and an outdoor fire pit with cocktail service and s'mores. Phoenicia Diner is cool and Phoenician Steakhouse makes great steak. For best ribs ever and great kid-friendly food, head out to Chicken Run in Windham. Our French friends' favorite Shandaken Inn offers tasteful and civilized contemporary take on haute French food. If you long for a hip Williamsburg vibe, head over to Chappies in Roxbury.
1. Breathtaking endless mountain views from the back garden! The best place to enjoy the cleanest air and watch the clouds go by as you kick back with a local beer or a glass of wine!
