Charming cabin to stay and play in at the lake. Have fun swimming and fishing on the lake. This property was a campsites and cross-country ski business so there are hundreds of acres of lettered trails off the property for hiking. We have canoes and Kayaks to rent. Very peaceful and pets are welcome.
The ski mountain is 5 minutes away and you can see the slopes from our lake or from the back lawn.

Cabin was cute, affordable, and conveniently close to the mountain for skiing. Our main issues were that it was lacking some amenities. There were no cutting boards, the salt was empty, one hand towel in the kitchen and none in the bathroom. There were only 4 bath towels for 4 people when there is also a hot tub, so more would have been preferred. The second night of our stay there was freezing rain and nothing was salted or plowed by 10am, but the owners are very nice and we had a lot of fun staying here.
We loved our stay. The owners were great and property was great.we love the views and the peaceful area. Never been to Windham before and we would definitely go back and use this property. Theres a question on the survey about skiing experience. We did not go for skiing and the question is misleading. We rated that one star because that was not our focus, but we would guess that the place would be good for skiing. We are hikers and we hiked the Escarpment trail which was nice, not too challenging.
My husband and I enjoyed a lovely stay at this cozy cabin on the lake in celebration of our 13th anniversary. We thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to relax with beautiful views! The bed in the living room made for a great movie watching spot, while the bed in the bedroom was super comfortable for nighttime sleep. The cabin is simple with no frills, but it was clean and spacious and met our needs. We appreciated the simplicity of the weekend.We tried fishing from the shore but nothing was biting (probably too cold!) and hiking but the trails leading off the property were hard to find under all the leaves. They didn't seem to be well maintained, but those are on public land, so not the fault of the hosts. We drove to nearby Kaatskill Falls for a nice hike though, and found Windham and Tannersville to have some great restaurants! The rest of the time we cooked our own food in the cabin.All in all, we were pleased with our stay, especially appreciating the beauty of the natural surroundings by the lake and the chance to relax in a cozy cabin!
