10 MIN to WINDHAM new Deck + Hot Tub - new bathrms Dec. ‘25 book now @ old rates
Please read entire listing before submitting inquiries/booking requests. New oversized 'Trex' back deck and new hot tub June 2024. New Bike and ski storage area/workshop!
Classic in style, but full of creature comforts, our log cabin will be your perfect home base for hiking, skiing, wine-tasting, or just relaxing while soaking in the natural mountain surroundings. Only 10 minutes from downtown Windham with access to a main road, this house is also perfectly secluded and enjoys incredible quietude due to being on the side of Mt. Pisgah, surrounded only by thick forest and beautiful farmland. Out back, a private hot tub sits on the brand new 'trex' deck, overlooking a stone fire pit and a star-studded view that stretches all the way to Massachusetts. In the summer, picnic and play games on a sprawling lawn.
Inside, a fully stocked kitchen (including spices, coffee, and other essentials) and wood-burning majestic stone fireplace await cozy days spent holed up. Four bedrooms with queen-size memory foam beds (one of which has a twin bed bunked above it) and fresh organic cotton linens will easily accommodate you and your friends. Two charming bathrooms offer updated rain head showers. A wood stove in the upstairs master bedroom provides a warm and romantic ambiance. Enjoy a home-cooked meal in the stunning window-filled dining room which easily seats eight.
Upstairs, there is a TV Room with all comfy oversized couches; there are comfortable and lovingly maintained furnishings, beds and linens throughout the house.
There are incredible hiking, biking, skiing and countless other activities in the area. We have a list of our favorite things to do nearby that we can provide upon booking.
Some things to note:
(1) Guests must check out no later than 11:00am, unless we give prior written approval of a later check-out. This is to allow a proper cleaning before the next guests arrive. Please be respectful of the cleaning staff's time.
(2) For summer renters, please note that the house does not have air conditioning. The cabin is situated on the side of a mountain which is usually 10 or 15 degrees cooler than the valley floor. There are ceiling fans throughout the house.
(3) We have done our best to update the house with modern comforts! That being said, the house is in a rural area so internet speeds are not as fast as they are in the city. We have found that the internet is reliable enough to check emails or work remotely.
(4) While the house is finished and fully insulated, and cleaned for every renter, it is located in the mountains and (depending on the time of year), some critters do find their way into the home despite our best efforts and pest-proofing. Again, we have found that being careful about food clean-up and securing doors/windows (especially at night) minimizes any issues.
(5) The basement houses our laundry facilities and bike and ski workshop. But please do not try to drive cars down the slope to the doors, as it is muddy most of the year. As noted in our house manual you will receive, we also ask you to please only park in the designated area.
(6) Use of the hot tub and fire pit are at renters' own risk.
We love our home and want to be upfront with our renters. We hope you will come and love it as much as we do!

About the host
Hosted by Paavana and David Lepard
We're a newly married couple looking for some respite from a busy NYC lifestyle. We love to spend our weekends trail running, fat-biking, winery-hopping, or just taking in the mountains by a crackling fire--and the Northern Catskills were the answer on all fronts. We purchased this cabin earlier this year and spent the summer prepping it for fall and winter renting. We've poured a lot of work into it, but we finally feel like the place offers the kind of weekend experience that we look for either on our own or with friends. We hope you'll love the cabin as much as we do!
