Beautiful as always
Nature is just beautiful. The owner of this cabin is very kind and has a beautiful soul as well. This was our 3rd time visiting for 10 days and we loved it just as much as we did past two visits.

Great stay
My wife and I had great time at Michelle's cabin during our 9 night 10 day stay. Quiet, peaceful, and beautiful nature all over everywhere we see. This is our second visit and will be visiting again next year. Michelle is such a warm and caring host that adds joy to our stay.

Perfect summer retreat!
We stayed here for 5 days/4 nights the last week of August. We hiked on the trails within the property, swam/relaxed around the pond, ate s'mores around a campfire, enjoyed the views from the deck and went crazy photographing the wild flowers! The house is very comfortable and clean. The kitchen is well-stocked with pantry staples, pots and pans. We cooked all our meals. It was fabulous! We highly recommend this place.
Michelle, thank you for being so responsive with my texts!

Catskill Paradise
This is an end of the road, private, paradise. During our stay the november snow turned the property into a winter wonderland. We spent most of our time outside exploring, hiking and snowshoeing. As the sun went down we heading into the warm, comfortable house. It was fully equipped with anything we could possibly need including a fire place, coffee maker, tv, good internet, comfortable king size bed, and washer/dryer. Michelle was quick to respond to any questions or concerns. Our stay was relaxing and enjoyable. We are looking forward to returning in the future. A perfect place in any weather!

Nature lovers paradise.
If you love the "Great Outdoors" this is the place for you! Peace and quiet. The hiking trails are amazing. Plenty of room to explore.
The House is absolutely perfect. Clean, new and perfectly laid out. Outside deck with a beautiful view of the valley below. Perfect to relax and read a good book.
I can't wait to return in the winter so i can use the wood burning stove.
If you want to be close to nature without "roughing it" this is the place for you.

Really good!
Thanks for letting us stay. The house is very comfortable and well equipped. We had a great weekend there. The area is surrounded with apple trees, which I loved. Peaceful, great to spend a time of relaxation. The one thing we couldn't get was internet connection, wifi. I think it was for the best. That way we could connect with each other better.
Thank you so much.

Thank you. I am working on the Wi-Fi . unfortunately being so high on the mountain top it is difficult to get a company up there to install it. Most companies I talked to want me to cut down a lot of trees which would take away from the beautiful landscape. Hope to have you back again soon.

Fun and relaxing!
I stayed at the house for three nights with my boys (ages 18,16 & 13). The scenery was beautiful, it was incredible quiet and the house itself was clean, cozy and nicely decorated. My boys wore a path between the house and large pond with their multiple trips each day to fish, boat and swim. However, there was nothing else to entertain them close by. The property was fun to explore (although we never found the second large pond). The caretaker was quick to respond when I called him with a question about the grill. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet getaway, and I would certainly go back.

Beautiful views, peaceful property
My husband and I wanted a change from our annual beach vacation and we were not dissapointed. The property is beautiful! So quiet and secluded, and the views were amazing! The ponds kept our 2 young boys occupied for hours and they loved building a fire in the pit every night. The pictures online do not do this property justice,us be seen in person to appreciate!

Great place
Thank you Michelle. The house had everything you would need.. it's like being home. Caught bass in the pond saw plenty of wildlife. Shopping is near by. The view of the landscape and mountains are priceless. My son and I loved it.
