The house is tucked away at the end of a private road with just a few other houses nearby. The town of Phoenicia has shops, a flea market, a farmers market, farm stands, and foodie destinations like the Phoenicia Diner and Woodstock Brewery. Near hiking, skiing, fly fishing, and more. The Menla Mountain Retreat center with Dewa spa is right up the road. Besides dipping your feet in the stream, the house is within walking distance of a few swimming holes.

About the host

Hosted by Alison

Host profile image
Like everyone who comes to the Catskill Mountains, we have fallen under it's spell. We consider ourselves the stewards of this land and work to maintain this special property and landscape. We are 2 Art + Design professionals who enjoy connecting to nature and helping to provide people with exceptional experiences.

Why they chose this property

The property has a history of being built by artists, Buddhist monks, and organic gardeners in the early 70s, the main house is in the style of the Woodstock Handmade Houses and the guest cottage is a modern open beam cabin. The buildings are all set within the curve of a mountain stream. It's wonderful to see how this space has become a place of recharge from the city, a warm gathering spot for friends, occasionally marriage proposals, a honeymoon getaway, and a place of healing and retreat for the people who pass through.

What makes this property unique

Wherever you go on the property, the sound of the bubbling stream is like a balm on your nerves. The deck that surrounds the cabin on 3 sides gives you a sweeping view down the mountain and along the edge of the forest, where you may see many of our wild neighbors such as Deer, Turkey, Fox, Bald Eagles, Heron, Owls and occasionally a bear (they tend to run away when they see people).
