About this property

TOP RATED ULTIMATE YEAR ROUND PLAYGROUND

The Mink Hollow Lodge is a year round play ground for all ages and provides all you need for your vacation getaway. Privacy & seclusion, yet only 6 miles to Hunter Mountain, this super immaculate, 2,700 sq ft Contemporary Home located on a 5+ acres and surrounded by protected woodlands.

​The Mink Hollow Lodge was designed to be the ultimate private get away from the city. The Lodge emphasizes its large rooms, many windows and fair colored interior wood. It was built with brightness and lightness in mind.

Nature also beckons from all sides. Combining the beautiful natural surroundings with a Lodge that leaves you wanting nothing more! You'll have it all! We hope that our attention to detail and desire to pamper you shines through each and every moment of your stay.

This large, immaculate, bright & sunny home is great for family gatherings or friends getaway. Relax in the new Hot Tub, play a round of pool in the huge game & bar room that includes an authentic Brunswick 8-ft pool table, socialize around the soaring 18ft custom built stone (not cultured) fireplace, listen to music, surf the internet, watch movies on the numerous flat screen TVs, to name just a few.

Enjoy the beautifully landscaped gardens. Walk on the the marked hiking trails or wade in the fresh mountain water stream. Picnic on the lawn or picnic table, toast marsh mellows using the fire pit, cook hot dogs & hamburgers on the Weber Grill, play frisbee or toss a football…all while never even leaving the estate!
