About this property

Spacious, cozy nature retreat near Woodstock and Kingston

Escape the urban grind to a warm, plush, well-located cabin nestled in the Bluestone Forest, just 12 mins from Woodstock or Kingston. Cushy sofa and 65-inch smart TV + lots of games and books to unwind in the light-filled living space. Multiple areas to work/relax (with fast WiFi) plus wraparound deck with gas grill. Cozy beds and a kitchen with all the tools you need + a farm-style dining table. Three ski mountains less than an hour away and 30 miles of trails accessible from your door.

Thoughtful design

The interior space is designed and decorated with a mixture of art and antiques we've collected throughout years of travel. The home's style provides flares of visual interest and color against a clean minimalist backdrop, all intended as a tranquil retreat from urban/suburban life. Bountiful natural light complements it all.

Outdoor bliss

The home is located within an hour of three major ski mountains (Belleayre, Hunter, and Windham), so once you've enjoyed your mug of gourmet coffee (and maybe a couple pancakes), you can set out to conquer the mountain. If cross-country skiing is your thing, the nearby Woodstock Nordic Center offers nearly 30 miles of groomed trails during the winter. But you don't even have to get in your car to enjoy outdoor beauty and recreation - the home is tucked away into 3000 state-protected acres of the Bluestone Wild Forest, which has 30 miles of hiking and biking trails. The forest and trails are beautiful and peaceful in the fall and winter months. Step out your front door, walk a couple hundred feet, and you'll find yourself on these lovely wooded trails, perfect for hiking, biking, and snowshoeing. Explore to your heart's content.

Time to Unwind

The home has a powerful mesh wifi network, so you can work or watch movies from every corner of the 2000 sq. ft. house (or even from the wrap-around deck). After a long day of exploring the Hudson Valley, curl up on the plush sectional sofa, and unwind under a wool blanket in front of the 65-inch smart TV. The large, multi-level home has several workspaces so that multiple guests can watch movies, work, and take calls from different areas without disturbing each other.

Chef's Table

As avid home cooks ourselves, we've set up the kitchen with all of the tools and items you need to prepare a fantastic meal, including a 5-burner gas stove and oven, KitchenAid stand mixer, conical burr coffee grinder, and much more. The home also boasts a high-end gas grill and stainless steel grill set for all your outdoor cooking needs. To sip a beer while grilling burgers or brats in the sun is a transcendent experience (and a rarity for city-dwellers). Once your gourmet creation is complete, enjoy it at the large farm-style dining table (easily seats 8) or the similarly sized outdoor deck table if the weather is nice.

Location, location, location

You may never want to leave this well-appointed and comfortable cabin, but if you do, you're just a 10-15 minute drive from many charming Upstate towns such as Woodstock, Kingston, Saugerties, and more. Enjoy many incredible restaurants who source ingredients locally from the bountiful Hudson Valley region. When you book with us, we'll send you our curated guide to the best restaurants, shops, and recreation in the area.

About the host

Hosted by Ryan and Sarah

Host profile image
Our family splits time between Upstate New York and NYC. We spend as much time as possible enjoying the peaceful beauty of the Catskills.

Why they chose this property

Our property is located less than 2 hours from NYC, yet it offers a completely relaxing change of pace from the hustle and bustle. The home is on a private road and tucked into a state forest preserve, offering space and solitude. At the same time, it's a quick (and usually scenic) drive from many charming upstate towns and villages such as Kingston, Woodstock, Hudson, Rhinebeck, or Phoenecia.

What makes this property unique

The home is located about 200 feet from miles of hiking, mountain biking, and running trails that wind throughout the Bluestone Wild Forest. That means that hours of recreation in nature are possible without ever getting in your car.
