Relax and recharge at Casa Magda, a design-forward retreat on 9 private acres in Windham, NY, just 2.5 hours from NYC.

Built in the 1980s and reimagined for modern living, this four-bedroom home is the rare kind of place that looks as good on Instagram as it feels to be in. Soak under the stars in the cedar hot tub, gather around the campfire, spin records by the fireplace, and wake up to mountain air with nowhere to be.

Windham is 7 mins away. Hunter is 15. The Milky Way is right overhead.

Casa Magda promises guests the perfect upstate retreat with modern comforts and serene surroundings.

This exquisite property boasts four bedrooms and two bathrooms, providing ample space for relaxation and rejuvenation. As you step inside, you'll be greeted by a spacious open floor plan, flooded with natural light streaming through tall windows.

The living room is an inviting space to unwind, complete with a disco ball and neon lights for setting the mood. Enjoy fireside chats or engage in lively board games in this cozy ambiance.

The newly renovated kitchen is a delight for the home cook, equipped with modern appliances, a breakfast nook for casual dining and a dining table for 10! Enjoy sipping your morning brew on the deck while taking in the sunlight.

The bedrooms are tastefully furnished, with three queen-size beds ensuring a restful night's sleep, while the master bedroom features a plush king bed and a private ensuite bathroom. The recently renovated bathrooms are thoughtfully designed, equipped with amenities such as ceiling speakers and in-floor heating for added comfort. All beds are outfitted with Helix mattresses, and bedding is provided by Evergreen Stitches.

The upstairs loft serves as an entertainment haven, featuring wall-to-wall daybeds, a 100" projection screen for movie nights, and a Bose surround system for immersive sound experiences.

Step outside onto our inviting deck, where relaxation and rejuvenation await. Here, you'll find a hot tub perfect for soaking beneath the stars and a propane BBQ ready for outdoor grilling. Gather around the campfire pit for storytelling and stargazing in the tranquil beauty of the natural landscape. The new hot tub, accommodating up to 7 people, provides the ultimate relaxation experience after a day on the slopes. Let the warmth of the water and the glow of the stars melt away the day's adventures—it's the perfect way to unwind amidst the snow-kissed surroundings.

Work comfortably in the mountains and soak up the peacefulness of remote work. Our house offers lightning-fast WiFi, ensuring you stay connected while surrounded by nature's beauty.

Septic system: This is a mountain home with a sensitive septic system. Please use toilet paper conservatively. Septic issues caused by overuse may result in repair costs up to $3,500 — we mention this upfront so it's never a surprise.

Children: The home is not childproofed and we don't provide cribs, highchairs, or changing tables. We recommend guests be 12 and older. If you're bringing younger children, please let us know at booking.

Entertainment system: Please don't connect gaming consoles, external devices, or rearrange the AV setup — it disrupts the experience for future guests. Amazon Firestick is available on the projector; bring your own Netflix and HBO logins.

Loft beds: The loft has wall-to-wall daybeds that can be configured as up to 4 single beds. Just let us know before your stay if you'd like them made up.

Basement:The laundry room is available for guest use. The rest of the basement is off limits.

Getting here: A car is recommended — and 4WD in winter. The Adirondack Trailways bus from Port Authority drops off at Valero gas station, a 5-minute drive from the house.

Windham is the quiet gem of the Catskills — historic Main Street, locally-owned restaurants, and year-round outdoor adventure. Ski, hike, swim, stargaze. Everything you need is within 40 minutes.

Casa Magda is just 2.5 hours from New York City, and while having a car for transportation in the area is recommended, you can also take the Adirondack Trailways Charter bus. The bus departs from Port Authority Bus Termina and conveniently drops you off at Valero gas station, a 5-minute drive from the house.
In the winter, we recommend a car with four-wheel drive that can handle the snow and gravel roads.

Step inside to a sun-drenched open floor plan with tall windows, a disco ball, neon mood lighting, and a living room built for good nights. The kitchen is fully renovated and seriously equipped — think modern appliances, a breakfast nook, and a dining table that seats 10.

Four bedrooms sleep up to 8 comfortably: three rooms with queen beds and a king master suite with a private ensuite. Every bed is a Helix mattress with Evergreen Stitches linens. Both bathrooms are newly renovated with ceiling speakers and heated floors.

Head upstairs to the loft — wall-to-wall daybeds, a 100" projection screen, and a Bose surround system. Movie nights up here are not optional. Starlink satellite WiFi keeps you connected without sacrificing the mountain escape. Fast enough for video calls and streaming — not designed for heavy downloads or gaming.

Outside: a cedar hot tub for 7, a propane BBQ, a campfire pit, and enough sky to make you forget your phone exists.
