The place was clean and comfortable and on a beautiful property. Margaretville was close by and had a couple of good dinners. East branch of the Delaware river is right there with some great fly fishing.

Perfect Catskills Getaway

Often guesthouses are shoved in the back of a property, seemingly as an afterthought, without a view and shabbily furnished. Not here! The 360 degrees views are stunning, the unit modern with a touch of farmhouse charm and perfect for a long-weekend getaway in the Catskills. Don’t miss it.

About the host

Hosted by Brian Sweeney

Host profile image
My wife. Carmel, and I purchased a fixer-upper in 2003 and moved in after four years of part-time renovation work. We had previously lived in nearby Arkville for 18 years, but wanted to "head for the hills" after our daughter graduated high school. We built a Craftsman-style garage in 2016 for use as a guest space and rental unit.

Why they chose this property

I have spent my entire life in the Catskills and can't think of a better place to live. My wife relocated here more than 30 years ago and fell in love with mountain life (and me, of course). I own a marketing company, Locust Grove Enterprises, and my wife is the Business Development Manager at Frost Valley YMCA - one of the Y's largest camp and conference centers,.

What makes this property unique

We love entertaining and since we built our garage/studio, we have more guests than ever. It's really a "sweet spot" up here on the mountain. When the leaves are off, you can catch the sun glinting off the Pepacton Reservoir. Or, take a hike up or down the winding road that leads to our property and simply enjoy the quiet and the legendary lure of the Catskills. We have made great friendships up here - it's a really special spot and Studio 502, as we have dubbed it, is a perfect place to use as a home base - for a few days or longer. FOR WINTER VISITS, WE REQUIRE THAT YOU BRING AN ALL-WHEEL-DRIVE VEHICLE. Our property is off the beaten path and winter driving can be a challenge. Please bring and all-wheel-drive during winter visits...we'd like your stay to be as pleasant as possible.
