Kapitan’s cottage a Rustic Private Catskill Getaway Near Kingston
Leave the city behind and unwind at this serene 2-bedroom Catskills cottage, ideally located between Kingston and Rosendale. Just 90 minutes from NYC, this light-filled retreat offers the perfect Hudson Valley getaway for couples, friends, or solo travelers craving quiet, comfort, and nature. Whether you’re looking to relax, explore the Catskill Mountains, or work remotely in peaceful surroundings, this cozy cottage promises a rejuvenating stay.
A Cozy & Comfortable Catskills Retreat
Settle into 1,200 sq ft of inviting, thoughtfully updated living space featuring two queen beds, tall picture windows, and warm rustic-modern charm. Curl up for a movie night, enjoy mornings with birdsong drifting through the trees, or stroll the 7 private acres of lawns, woodlands, and a small lake. It’s quiet, secluded, and the perfect place to breathe deeply and recharge.
Renovated, Easy Living
The cottage has been renovated to a high standard and sits just 120 feet from our historic 1701 Dutch Colonial farmhouse (your hosts’ weekend home). Enjoy a functional, well-stocked eat-in kitchenette with induction cooktop, dishwasher, retro refrigerator, coffee pot, French press, cookware, dishes, and a selection of oils, spices, and essentials.
Upstairs, you’ll find:
• A spacious sun-filled bedroom with floor-to-ceiling windows and a comfy queen bed
• A full bathroom with shower (soaps, towels & paper products included)
Downstairs offers:
• A second queen bedroom opening to a private stone patio and garden
• A dedicated workspace perfect for remote work
• A half bath
• High-speed internet, washer/dryer, and efficient heating/cooling split units
Step outside to your own quiet nook complete with a charcoal grill, fire pit, and outdoor dining area—ideal for cooking out under the stars.
Pool, Property & Outdoor Amenities
Relax at the heated, in-ground saltwater pool, open Mid-May through September, located on the gated bluestone patio just steps from the cottage. (Please note: no pets in the pool due to the vinyl liner.)
The home sits on a peaceful cul-de-sac, surrounded by nature with only two houses on the entire property. Enjoy woodland trails, wildlife, and total privacy. A generator provides peace of mind during unexpected outages.
Perfect Location for Exploring the Hudson Valley
This cottage places you close to everything the region is known for:
• Kingston (trendy restaurants, historical landmarks, live music)
• Rosendale (local shops, cafés, farmers markets)
• Ashokan Reservoir – 10 min
• Woodstock – 20 min
• Hiking & biking trails throughout the Hudson Valley
• Wineries, breweries & cideries nearby
