Location: Phoenicia, Catskills, New York, USA (2 hrs North of NY City, 20 min from Woodstock)
Accommodations: Cabin, 3 Bedrooms + No additional sleeping rooms avail, 1 Bath (Sleeps 4-6)
Keywords: Real Log Cabin
Spend cozy evenings reading beside the fire in our spacious living area - or listening to the sounds of nature on the front porch of our beautiful and rustic log cabin. Some of New York's best trout fishing is just down the hill on the creek - which feeds into the Esopus River a mile away. And another mile up the road are some of New York State's best hiking and camping trails.
Our cabin is beautifully decorated with local antiques; and we can tell you all the best places to look for good stuff. This is a perfect spot for nature lovers who want true serenity and the glory of the mountains and sunshine all around you. No matter the season, you will find your soul restored after a weekend (or if you're lucky, a whole week) at our place.
The sweet town of Phoenicia is a real town, with a grocery store, post office, a few shops and restaurants, and the best breakfast place in the world, Sweet Sue's. Cross country ski for free at nearby Wilson State Park - or visit groomed trails at Belleayre or Tannersville.
No more than four adults at the cabin. We love dogs and cats as long as they don't scratch the furniture.

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2000
We're a nice family of four, with a boy of five and a baby girl, as well as a happy hound; thus you'll find lots of toys and general family friendliness.
Why the Owner Chose Phoenicia
This area is among the most beautiful in the state, and so close to New York City! We were lucky enough to find this magical spot the year we married, before the area became as well known. So we have the best spot in the world for our cabin, totally secluded feeling but not too far from town and community and amazing trails, antiquing, etc. We love the mix of city transplants and country folk, but we rarely leave our front porch!
The Unique Benefits of this Cabin
We go to our cabin to restore ourselves and to spend real time with family and friends. It is a magical place!

A Real Treasure

Thanks for a great holiday weekend. My family and I were uplifted by both the natural beauty of the surrounding area as well as the family atmosphere in the cabin itself. We read books, made fires (in the fireplace, of course), hiked, ate, painted, and generally relaxed listening to the sound of the Esopus Creek flowing gently nearby. We were amazed at the different lights - early morning, noon time, sunset, and moonlight as seen from our long talks on the front porch. We "attempted" Mt. Wittenberg, but 4 miles was a bit out of our league - half way we did go and it was totally worth it - next time we will go all the way. Really a treasure, thanks for making your home available.

Amazing bucolic escape from the city. Close enough to everything you need, but far enough away for peace and quiet and stars. Beautiful cabin. One of the best vacations my family's ever had. Can't recommend it highly enough.

Super cottage which was great for our family of 5. Close to skiing. The living space in the cabin is larger than I expected from the photographs! Very comfortable. The couple of days skiing, the cozy fireplace and comfortable beds made for a fun family week-end. Thanks!

Stayed in this wonderfully rustic cabin with my wife and 3 kids. We had a fantastic time. The house was warm, comfortable and fully stocked (except for towels). We'll definitely be returning!

My wife, our dog, and I stayed at the cabin for five days in late December and we all had a wonderful time. It was our mini-honeymoon, as we're planning something bigger in a few months and wanted something quiet and peaceful out of the city for a quick getaway. The cabin exceeded our expectations--absolutely perfect, spacious, beautiful, and toasty in the winter. The kitchen was very well stocked with cooking gear, and we had a great time cooking and hunkering down in front of the beautiful fireplace. Lots of books around--my wife had forgotten her copy of "Middlemarch" at home and lo and behold it was on the shelf. And our dog was in heaven with the place--far enough from the road and neighbors for her to roam the spacious yard. Good hiking just down the road and fabulous breakfast at Sweet Sue's around the corner in Phoenicia. Can't wait to return. Thanks, Evelyn!

My husband, four year old twins and I just got back from two wonderful nights in Phonecia and Evelyn and Michael's cabin. Everything about the place is fabulous, it's cozy and beautiful, comfortable and quiet. Everything we needed was there for us, firewood, kitchen necessities, clean sheets on comfortable beds even toys for the kids. I only wish we could have stayed longer. This was our second trip to this cabin, we went five years ago before the kids were born and loved it then too. We hope to back more often. I cannot recommend this place highly enough.

My wife and I live in NYC and spent Thanksgiving at this wonderful cabin. We loved the fireplace ! It was wonderful to be so secluded in the woods and at night we watched the stars. We highly recommend this for anyone who needs to clear their heads from city life and get away for a few days. Thanks, Kevin and Jennifer O.

We stayed at the cabin over the Labor Day and found it absolutely charming. It is rustic as described, furnished with antiques, has a very special feel to it. The location is perfect. It was so relaxing to sit on the porch with our morning coffee and see the sun come up from over the mountain. We felt a world away from our usual lives, which is exactly what we wanted to achieve! Highly recommended to de-stress and recharge!
