Hidden Pond is a cozy retreat in the heart of the Catskills, located 2 hours from NYC.

Set on 7 private acres surrounded by woodland, the A-frame style house has 3 bedrooms, 2 baths. The house features a private swimmable freshwater pond, wood-burning stove, a firepit, and access to the best hiking and dining in the region.

Bald eagles graze the skies above the mesmerizing Rondout Reservoir, whose scenic views line the country road leading to your aptly named property. Tucked behind tall pines and up a winding driveway, Hidden Pond is a private oasis that will quickly feel like home. Enjoy the spoils of the peacefulness near the reservoir, while also being in close proximity to some of the most exciting businesses in the region.

The floor-to-ceiling windows really bring the outside into this cabin. Having an open floor plan with cathedral ceilings and a spacious deck just beyond the living room make this an inviting environment for groups. A large sectional sofa faces the wood stove, woodland views, and smart TV for a combination of ultimate leisure. The downstairs closet is full of board games that will entertain the whole family. Full kitchen amenities include a gas range, dishwasher, and microwave for easy at-home cooking, and a midcentury style dining table with room to seat six.

Behind the open living arrangement, the first floor also offers a Queen size bedroom and Full size bedroom that both share a full bathroom with a roomy walk-in shower. A King size room is upstairs on the second floor with an ensuite bathroom that features a modern soaking tub, and a work-from-home space overlooking the private, peaceful outdoors.

With 7.5 private acres to explore, the outdoor space alone can bring all your upstate dreams to life. A swimmable freshwater pond that is 17 feet deep will help you refresh after sunbathing on the deck's chaise lounge chairs. Take a cat nap in one of the four hammocks around the property, or cool off with a book beneath the freestanding umbrella. There are multiple seating arrangements outside including a dining area for six, and a smaller bistro table for two. Al fresco dining during warmer months is hard to pass up with a gas grill and smoker available for cooking, and an outdoor cooler to keep food and drink within easy access.

Nestled between the trees beside the pond is a large fire pit where your group can end the day together having s'mores and a nightcap under clear, starry skies. The gentle sounds of a neighboring creek will lull you to sleep when it's time to turn in. Whether it's a quick weekend trip or something much longer, you'll all leave Hidden Pond completely rejuvenated.

If you’re looking to explore the region, some of the best destinations are in Accord (25 minutes away) and Kerhonkson (20 minutes) - we highly recommend Westwind Orchard, Arrowood Farms or Rough Cut Brewing. If outdoors activities are more your speed, Minnewaska State Park (20 minutes) and the lovely Red Hill Fire Tower (15 minutes) are right around the corner!

Hidden Pond, located in the heart of the Catskills, is just outside the hamlet Kerhonkson and Accord. These quaint towns have lots of explore-worthy spots. Grab cider and pizza at Westwind Orchard, beer and bites at Arrowood farms, or elevated dining at Inness. Rough Cut Brewing is also a local favorite. We have a local guide on Red Cottage Inc's website where we help you get the most out of your stay at Eden Pond.

The home is down a long driveway and is as private as it gets with 7.5 acres to explore, with a pond and creek. Exploring the area is easy, Napanoch is a charming hamlet in Sullivan County. Nearby Accord and Kerhonkson have a number of great eats, Red Hill Fire Tower is 15 minutes away, and the beloved Minnewaska State Park is 20 minutes away.

Hidden Pond is two hours from New York City, and while you'll definitely want a car to get enjoy the region. In the winter, we recommend a car with four-wheel drive that can handle the snow and gravel roads. There is plenty of parking on the premises.
