About this property

The Swimming Hole

Enjoy peace and tranquility at The Swimming Hole. A stylish and charming farmhouse that pre-dates the country, sits on 8 acres with over 500 feet of private creek frontage and a crystal clear private swimming hole. A perfect location to enjoy the Catskills. 10 minutes from restaurants and events in Woodstock and Saugerties. Under 20 minutes to Kaaterskill falls, 30 minutes to Hunter Mountain, and under 45 minutes to Windham.
The space
The home has two common areas and a lot of charm. Given the age of the home it comes with plenty of creaks in the old wood floors. The home has 2 bedrooms on the main floor with queen beds. A large open room upstairs with a king bed. And a bonus room upstairs with a double bed and two junior single (63 inches in length) beds. We welcome pets but please note they must be included in the reservation.
