About this property

Walk to slopes at Windham! Great ski home for families. Golf, bike, & hike too.

Welcome to Alpine Escape! Enjoy incredibly easy access to some of the best skiing in New York. This home has all the extras and finishing touches that will make your vacation great, and it's only a short 1/4 mile walk to the slopeside drop off area where Wonderama and Lower Wipeout trails merge.

On the main level, the recently remodeled kitchen features custom shaker cabinets, beautiful granite countertops and all the cookware and extras you could want. Australian Cypress hardwood flooring is beautiful and comfortable, and the slate backsplash and LED undercounter lighting make this kitchen a cook's dream. The breakfast bar easily seats 4 and the dining table seats 6 or expands for more so you can all enjoy meal time together. The table leaves are self storing in the table and there are additional chairs in the lower level queen bedroom. The custom made antique ski and wine bottle chandelier is truly one of a kind. The living room is open to the kitchen and dining area in this open concept floor plan. Enjoy the comfortable couch and recliner and kick back and watch some movies on the Smart TV. The living room also has a Play Station 3 with lots of pre-loaded games, and it will also play DVDs and Bluray. If you really want to get cozy, relax by a nice warm woodburning fire. There is also a large deck off the main level. There is a Weber gas grill and Adirondack chairs so you can grill and sit comfortably with a nice view of the mountain woods. The main level has a half bathroom. For skiers, its important to note that there is also a large ski room that is the first room you enter coming in the front door. It is heated and features numerous ski racks, coat racks, and cubbies for your boots, helmets, etc...

Alpine Escape has 3 bedrooms and two sleeping lofts. The Master bedroom, on the upper level has a queen sized bed, and plenty of floor space. It has a dresser and large closet for storage. There is also a sleeping loft on the upper level with a full size bed and two twin size futons. The futons are normally set up as chairs but can be converted into comfortable twin mattresses. Both futons are in the loft with the twin bed and set up as chairs, but if you want to set them up as beds one of them will have to move to the adjacent loft area. Please note that this is a loft - not a private bedroom and is open to the rest of the floor. It is a great place for kids to sleep. The master bathroom is also on the upper level and it has a jetted tub and a separate shower with steam shower option.

On the lower level, there are two bedrooms. One bedroom has a queen size bed, with plenty of additional floor space if you want to bring sleeping bags or a Pack n Play. It also has a dresser and closet for storage. The other bedroom has two sets of twin bunk beds to sleep 4. There is a closet and some under-bed drawers for storage. The lower level bedrooms share a full bathroom with a large tub/shower combo. There is also a laundry room on the lower level with washer and dryer.

Family wedding trip
Property was great. Exactly like it showed online. Plenty of room for the 7 of us. Location was perfect for parties in a d around town we needed to attend. Small problem with water heater that the owner called immediately and was fixed

Great ski getaway
Peters property was great for two families with 4 adults and 4 kids. The bunk room was great for the older ones while the loft outside of the master allowed our littlest to stay close by. The condo was clean and had a great ski room to keep all the snow outside of the main living area.

About the host

Hosted by Pete Hegedus

Host profile image
We are a family of four that love to ski! With our permanent home and work in the NYC metro area, Windham is a great get away for our family. We hope that you will enjoy it every bit as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

Alpine Escape and the whole Brainaird Ridge development is the perfect place for us. Although it's a townhouse, you feel like you're in your own very private home and it is a very easy walk to the slope side so you can step into your skis and ski down to the lodge at Windham. Brainard Ridge gave us much more privacy than Windham Mountain Village, and although it's a little deceiving, it's just as close!

What makes this property unique

Our home has lots of great details such as the custom made antique ski & wine bottle chandelier, a newly remodeled kitchens and other great features.
