About this property

Secluded Cabin in the Southern Catskills Less than 2 Hours from NYC

A Mountain Cabin BEST suited for a Young Couple and up to 4 people who are outdoor enthusiasts looking to experience the great oudoors and spend there time outside to go Forest Bathing- Also known as Shinrin-Yoku in Japanese which is a therapeutic practice that involves spending time in nature to relax and connect with the environment through the senses. It will improve your health and well being. Grounding or Earthing is a trend now as recently seen on Good Day New York here in NYC where research shows you should walk barefoot on the earth and grass for many health benefits which can be done easily here in the very spacious backyard of grass and Moss. The Steps Going Upstairs are STEEP and the Outdoor Terrain is UNEVEN so this is NOT a Place for the ELDERLY OR PEOPLE with LIMITED MOBILTY and BALANCE. Breathe fresh mountain air and explore, build a fire in a Traditional Fire Pit (NOT a Fire Ring) and listen to the crickets at night over the dark sky filled with stars, TAKE A OUTDOOR SHOWER , BBQ on the weber propane gas grill, Play Volleyball or Badmington . You can drink the fresh WATER from the cabin faucet . Its from a Natural Underground WELL that goes 180 FT below the ground and filtered by Mother Nature and Pumped up just like Poland Spring or many other bottled water suppliers. No chemicals. Your skin will feel so soft and fresh after a shower. The cabin has a modern touch of technology with Air conditioning and Fans! 4KHDTV with built in APPS such as Netflix, HULU, Amazon Prime, Spotify, etc.. . The TV upstairs is old school and not smart but can only play the Huge selection of DVDs available and VHS Tapes from back in the day so bring any if you want to wath them !
An Onkyo stereo which can play cassette tapes and CD's. Check out the multiple board games such as Monopoly, Cranium, Trivial persuit, Checkers, Uno , Master Mind and more. Exclusive NYC Morton Brown Body Wash for the Shower and Starbucks Reserve coffee beens and Grinder to make some fresh morning coffee. Feel free to use the condiments such as the multiple oils, spices, sugar, salt, pepper, mustard, ketchup salad dressing , etc. The kitchen is stocked with multiple Pots and pans to make food. They are located in the oven itself for storage purposes or pullout the tray below the oven. Multiple sizes to boil water or larger to make spaghetti and frying pans.
Less then 2 hours from NYC you can be transported to the wilderness with wild Turkey, Blach Bear, Night Owls and all the wildlife the catskills has to offer. Located near the*****BashaKill Vineyards and wildlife preserve where you can Kayack, birdwatch, fish or sample the local Wines with excellent FOOD (For adults ONLY) . IT is a MUST !!! 10 Minutes from the Town of Wurtsboro for shopping at the Canal Town Emporium, CrystalConnections and dining at Pasta D'oro, Las Mananitas Mexican, The Red Dot Vegetarian and classic American at Danny's. The Wurtsboro cafe is also in town for breakfast, lunch and now dinner on weekends. Do your Grocery shopping at THE G Mart supermarket on route 209 South as you go back to town and pass the intersection. It will be just down the highway on your left before the re-exit to the Route 17 highway. You are also Not too far to the *****Westwind Orchard and cidery, and The Arrowwood farm and distillery past Ellenville NY. Check out *******Sam's point and Ice cave mountain in Minnewaska state park (You must go online and make reservations to park your car during peak season). *****The Dale- for Pizza, Burgers , NY craft breverages and weekend brunch; ****** High Voltage Creek Bar- great outdoor spot weather permitting with Monthly Gay events and ******Forage & Gather Market (foragemountaindale.com) for gluten free breakfast and sandwich foods for lunch all in the Town of Mountaindale 10 minutes away. A Binder is supplied inside with Maps and all the places of interest. Power can go out during severe storms or NorthEast Hurricanes which have been occuring more often in the north east and have consequeneces. If power goes out it is usually not more than an hour or two. There is absolutely nothing I can do !!! Light the multiple candles and a lantern is supplied. Play all the multiple board games and enjoy great conversation and the experience. The power will eventually go back on. This is a cabin in the catskill mountains and it is all about the weather that can affect electrical supply. But the beauty is in the fresh air, water, and wildlife. Hot water is limited because there is a hot water tank and it is not supplied by a Municipal water company. So if multiple people take showers at the same time you will have to wait for the tank to heat up again. The Stream water upfront going across the driveway is OK for your dog to drink. My dogs drink it all the time so dont panic. It is clean and filled with minnows, crayfish, frogs and salamanders. Pick the Fresh Mint from the stream to add to your Mojito drinks or food !! Also add some fresh basil or other herbs from the planters at the patio area .
