What Guests Are Saying
Beautiful property and lovely, peaceful surroundings. The hosts were responsive
Loved being close to Windham and absolutely recommend dinner at Casa Susanna if you make a reservation in advance!
The hot tub looked out over the lawn and forest and was a highlight of the trip! Highly recommend as an escape and looking forward to another stay!
Highly recommend this home! I am already planning to book
I stayed here for a few days with my partner and another couple. It was super spacious for just the four of us. We planned this trip to get away from the city for a few days and enjoy the Catskills.
We are all able to work remotely, and there was plenty of space for us all to work. We mostly preferred working together at the dining table, but there were several desks in various rooms where we could take meetings or work quietly.
Then, in the evenings, we went for hikes, drank wine, played board games, watched TV, and enjoyed the hot tub. Hot tub was great and already hot, nothing we had to do but open it up.
Expect to drive 10-15 minutes for hikes and dinner in town. I recommend the Outer Loop North trail for a leisurely 3 mile hike. We went to the Taphouse Grille in Windham and loved it. If you plan ahead with a reservation, try Casa Susanna. It’s unbelievable how good it is.
