Another Amazing Stay!

We had another amazing extended weekend stay! We hiked, skiied, snow tubed (Plattekill) and enjoyed the beautiful house with much time spent in front of the fireplace. We had delicious meals at Chappie's and visited the new Grocery store in town, which was a welcome addition. The house was clean and comfortable and welcoming and we cannot wait to return!

Another fabulous stay at the Secret Catskills Cabin

We love this place. It's totally secluded on top of a mountain, but still only a 5-minute drive to Roxbury for dinner. The great room is the best part of the house, and where we spend most of our time. On this visit we got to watch a few deer amble by in the woods just outside the big picture windows.

A Fabulous Getaway in the Northern Catskills

We were completely delighted with our long weekend stay at this lovely, comfortable and fabulously equipped house in the woods. While our getaway from the city was aimed at spending time in the outdoors of the northern Catskills, it was hard to pull ourselves away from that glorious living area. (We did, however get out and enjoy the beautiful countryside, small towns, and mountains as well.)

Wonderful cabin

This beautiful cabin sits on a mountain top at the end of the road and far from the world. The Great Room is the place to be, with enormous windows that overlook the woods. Porches on either side of the house provide lots of room for visiting with friends or just enjoying the sounds of silence. The entire area is gorgeous and full of winding streams and pleasant valleys. Not to be missed.

Came for the wedding, turned into a Catskills vacation

This home is really beautiful. Very clean with everything we needed aside from some groceries. There were fireflies at night. Hummingbirds at the bee balm by the deck. Cool night air. It was perfect. Seems like the perfect place for a group coming to the Catskills for a weekend ski vacation as well! Loved it.

4 Generation Thanksgiving

Our family of 8 had an amazing time at this beautiful spacious 'cabin'. Everything we needed was available for our stay, and both the children and the adults enjoyed all the amenities. Thanksgiving dinner was spent around the dining table, chess was played by the wood stove in the living room, the kids enjoyed playing nock-hockey & foosball & video games in the basement, and we all enjoyed the light and warmth of the stone fireplace of the Great Room. The beds were comfortable, the showers were hot, and the grounds were lovely. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Much needed getaway

Everything was easy about renting this place. Hosts had the house so hooked up for an easy, enjoyable get away. We have done a few VRBOs before and some of the rentals were bare bones. Not this house. We all felt truly welcome and appreciated the thought the owners put into everything. It was noticed and appreciated by my whole family.

Response from VrboOwner on 17 Jun, 2024
We are shocked to read this review. You never mentioned anything about this during our consistent communication throughout your stay. You even told us you had a great stay upon check out, with no mention of this or any other issue. If there had been an issue, as you have stated, we wish you would have said something during your stay, so we could have addressed it. But leaving unfound remarks like this in a review, with this being the first we hear of it, is downright irresponsible as a guest. We spent hours in the house the day before and the day after your stay, and there were no fleas. And there's no way, as a responsible host, we would have let you stayed if there were. My guess is if you do indeed have bites, they are from Mayflies, which are all over the area this time of year, and likely occurred while you were outside. We have our property routinely checked, sprayed, and maintained year-round. We take hosting very seriously and take great pride in the maintenance, safety, and cleanliness we provide to guests.

Amazing house

Great house. Much thought and money went into the house, the furnishings and back yard/front yard. The property was better than we expected. Just the highlights: awesome fireplace, all bulbs in the house were in working condition (extremely rare occurrence/very important for me personally), turntable with old vinyl records, ring thermostats all over the house, various welcome goodies, kitchen set up for cooking with all spices/oil/salt/sugar you need. Nice that the snow was cleaned after the snow storm.

Amazing home, stunning location

We had an absolutely amazing time! The home is gorgeous, comfortable, spacious and cozy! The location offers great access to Platekill as well as to hiking trails and the adorable village of Roxbury. Chappies was one of our favorite restaurant in the village. We enjoyed the sun soaked great room, relaxed in front of the fireplace, cooked amazing meals and we're in awe of the scenery and wildlife. The house has everything you need to have an incredible stay. Property manager was responsive and helpful. House was so clean, I would describe as pristine! We look forward to returning again!

Perfect Thanksgiving Family Getaway

The Secret Catskill Cabin was everything that we expected, and more. Beautiful and serene setting of the cabin; keen attention to every detail; fully equipped kitchen to handle the needs of our group of 8 adults and two kids. Our kids loved the basement which had a video game and a foosball table. Gorgeous view out of the glass wall in the grand room was the highlight. Outdoor fire pit and seating was great to accommodate all of us. A turntable and record collection in the kitchen/dining area was a nice touch. Overall a 10/10. Would love to come back again next year.

Private, Pup Friendly Cabin in the Woods

We spent three nights in this private and beautiful cabin, and we left wishing we had stayed for just one more. When we weren't hiking some excellent nearby trails, we were at the cabin, which is cozy both inside and out. The place is very private, with no other homes visible from the cabin, and there are many places to relax and read; the grand front room, the mid-room, a comfortable nook upstairs, a couple of outdoor porches - covered and uncovered - and of course the chairs by the firepit outside. We used them all. Happiest of all was our pup, a city dog who was thrilled to be let out the side door unleased, free to roam the surrounding woods for hours. We would certainly stay here again.
