Encantador Catskills Mountain Lake House

Entire house was clean and well equipped with everything you might need for a weekend getaway. Too bad the lake was still frozen so we are already planning our return visit in the summer. Thank you Carroll and John!

The house is filled with light, sitting on the lake with tall windows in every room with two exposures looking on the lake. We were there in winter, and the house was toasty warm. It was sheer delight to walk across and up and down the frozen lake and through the snow-carpeted woods.

The house and property are EXACTLY as described! Wonderful spot for a few days away.

The house was clean and cozy. Perfect for our family getaway.

We like to hike so it is very convenient to beautiful hiking trails.

The town of Ellensville is a very quiet town but you can get what you need at a large super market and large chain stores 15 minute drive from the house. I would love to visit again in the summer to enjoy the lake. We actually walked over the frozen lake which was fun.

The property is beautiful and the house is fine.

We were there for Thanksgiving and the hosts knew this.

There was only one rack in the oven, dirty dishes and flatware in the cupboards, one roll of paper towels and no napkins, tin foil or saran wrap (and no place to buy anything on the Holiday). The wood burning stove did not have easily useable equipment ( bucket, broom) and was very difficult to keep lit albeit I had asked several time about it. We also found somebody's dirty socks in the bedroom on the floor. They are in the closet. We thoroughly enjoyed our time away but these details could have made it easier.
