Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2000
We love the mountain air -- and although we no longer ski -- offer our guest house to skiers for the winter AND summer months -- the guest house -- advertised here -- is perfectly located for skiers -- mere minutes from Windham Mt. slopes -- 20 minutes from Hunter -- allows FABULOUS views of the Windham slopes --
SUMMER and AUTUMN offer myriad other opportunities for enjoyment of the great Northern Catskill region -- hiking, kayaking, antiquing, art galleries, wine festivals, etc. The views remain the same -- enjoy the wrap around deck, awesome starlit skies and quiet privacy. During the Summer and Autumn months we are in residence in another home on the property -- completely removed from your private get-away --- but there in case you need assistance or advice on where to dine or shop. Make this your summer home......picture is of us about take off on a hot air balloon adventure not far from the house.....best life experience!

We rented this property for a few weeks during the high-season this past winter. We previously rented this home a few years earlier and we very pleased upon our return to this great property. The views remain outstanding and the decor contributes to this property being quite memorable. The property is very convenient to the mountain and is located just on the outskirts of the center of town allowing an easy walk to all the wonderful restaurants and shops located in Windham proper. As previously experienced, the homeowners proved very accomodating and quite pleasant to deal with ---- I would certainly recommend this property to any couple or young family interested in finding a unique setting to enhance their Windham mountain ski experience. This is geniune gem during all four seasons of the year.

We spent the month of march at the Hilltop Retreat and had a wonderful time (along with fantastic skiing). The views are incredible and the house feels very private even though it is so close to the mountain. The house is spotless and comfortable with fantastic 1960s decor. The hosts were kind, responsive and very easy to deal with. We love this house and will be back again soon!

Although the January ski season was a little "iffy" the accomodations at Hilltop were a pleasure - from our arrival with the bottle of wine waiting - which I did eschew for a trip to Trail's End - just next door! The beds were comfy, the bathrooms spotless (I have this thing about bathrooms!) And the great room - a 1960's redux- comfortable, spacious and wonderfully toasty with the gas fireplace. Ah, the views - by using the telescope (or the available binoculars)you could check out the brand of skis on the mountain (well, OK a minor exaggeration here!) I'll be back. . .

A wonderful treehouse which overlooks Ski Windham. The view is beautiful. You can sit on the deck, read a book and hear the birds. It’s very peaceful. Also you can go hiking in the woods on a trail which begins near the house. There is a lake with picnic tables two miles away. Charming town center with several restaurants, art shops and antique shops. Great location.

Great property. Owners proved very accomodating and helpful (i.e. quite nice people). The property literally has "million dollar views" and is located in the heart of Windham village - mere minutes from the ski mountain. The interior design is impeccable, clean and like a trip back in time (think high-design 1970's decor with original furnishings in outstanding condition). Truly a memorable property to experience.....I have stayed in a number of the most regarded properties in Windham over the years and this is candidly one of the most memorable properties you can rent) The house is set on the top of a hill located on a private estate-like setting in the heart of the village. This is a great place to stay during the summer and one of the best places to stay in the winter months...you can't go wrong staying here for the money.

Very nice private setting in a self-contained "chalet" with a European feel. Sparkling clean with plenty of room. Splendid view towards the mountains and ske slope. Located near a neat little art-oriented village.

We stayed here in february of 2006 & it was wonderful. We were very comfortable. it had the perfect amount of space & storage and all the comforts of home. the living area was large - plenty of room to hang out and for all our ski stuff and the kitchen was perfect and had everything we needed for long weekends away. We had a great time at the house and on the mountain. The mountain is extremly close-less than a 5 minute drive; and the owners were very helpful in providing all the information needed regarding the home and area information. (Thanks for a great stay)
