The property is set back from the road and nicely private. The home is very nice, newer, extremely well maintained. The bedrooms are very good size. The host was super nice and helpful.
Immaculate property! House was so clean and comfortable. My kids really enjoyed the outdoor amenities. We went to a concert at Bethel Woods, about 20 minutes away. The house was the perfect location! Can’t wait to go back again.
We really enjoyed our one night (too short!) at Brent’s property. Lovely location, well equipped and suited our needs. The living room/dining room had ample room for our group to do puzzles, and I personally enjoyed the memory foam bed. I wish it was warmer for us to try out the BBQ and gazebo and porch! We will return if the opportunity arises.
My name is Peter Beh. I’m a father of 4 and grandfather of 3. 7 of us just completed a 5 day visit to this truly incredible Catskills Chalet on 5 beautifully peaceful acres in Sullivan County! Our host Brent provided me and my family an incredibly peaceful and serene pre Christmas/Christmas celebration. Fire pit, sleigh riding, hiking and ample and comfortable bedrooms capable of sleeping 8 ! I want to thank VRBO and Brent and will assuredly be returning either next Christmas, or for summer camping! Thanks again and please accept this a a sincere and thoroughly heartfelt endorsement!
This property is perfect for a Catskill vacation! We loved the peace and quiet and the starry night sky was spectacular! Being near Bethel Woods for concerts was very convenient. The house and all amenities were clean and appreciated. The host is quickly responsive to all communication. Book this property! You’ll be glad you did!
Home was spacious, well-stocked, very clean. Property is well-kept and private with wildlife sightings being a bonus. Firepit had plenty of cut wood and an abundance of kindling can be found in surrounding woods (or wise for guests to bring small fire starter logs). Close proximity to Bethel Woods Art/Music venue & Woodstock Festival Museum, as well as quaint neighboring hamlets with a variety of dining options, spirits & breweries. Curvy roads make for an enchantingly scenic countryside drive. Brent's Shady Fox Retreat is truly a Catskill gem!
