Magical Chalet with spectacular views
About this chalet rental
Includes all comforts of modern living, this is the place to either get away from it all, or to celebrate an unforgettable get-together with friends and family. Le Colibri offers arguably the most spectacular views in the Catskills. The photos give you a sense, but to really appreciate their splendor you have to come and see for yourself - you are sitting on the top of the world. The only other sign of civilization are some sparkling lights at night, on Overlook Mountain, across the valley. Nobody can see you, and you are surrounded by nature's splendor. Le Colibri is what you hope to find after a long hike - except here you arrive via a private, majestic drive-way. We cherish Le Colibri paradox: Even though you are fully immersed in nature, you are only a three minute drive away from enchanting Woodstock. The village is welcoming and fun in its decidedly alternative spirit. Good restaurants, cafes and boutiques abound, the pace is leisurely and the people of Woodstock are chatty. Enjoy a stroll down Tinker Street while listening to live music and relishing the town's 'Sixties' spirit, all the while spotting the occasional celebrity - back in the day Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston would summer down the road from Le Colibri. Woodstock is the home of many artists and musicians and increasingly being discovered by the hip and trendy. So whether you just want to buy the paper in the morning, dip down to town for a lunch or dinner, or knock on Valerie's door to pick-up a home-baked strawberry-rhubarb pie, the village is right there for you, and who knows who you might bump into? Le Colibri consists of a three-story Main House and a separate two story Spa House. The two are connected by a large deck featuring a generous pool (open from mid-May through Nov. 1st). The pool is heated, but the seasons dictate the pool temperature, so before July 1st and after September 15th only the hearty souls swim. The deck is made of high-end composite - so no splinters! - and features a large grill station. The grill is connected to the house gas, so no fiddling with gas bottles or worrying about running out of gas. The deck furniture includes two mahogany pool lounges, a dining table with a large umbrella, an Adirondack seating group for four and a hammock. The entrance to the Main House welcomes you with its cathedral ceiling. There is a comfortable bench where you can take off your boots in the winter, and store your ski equipment in the adjacent, generously proportioned closet. Off the entrance is the entertainment room, with a working fireplace, a brand new 60' Samsung HD TV, couches, an alcoved home office (with our powerful wireless router), a wide-plank wooden floor, and a terrace to sit and enjoy the view. Behind the entertainment room is the ground floor bedroom featuring French doors and a hand-made, solid cherry Le Grange bed with an adjunct Porcelanosa bathroom, turning this into a lovely mini-suite. A grand staircase leads up to the second floor, opening onto the living room which has a another working fireplace, an ample leather couch and chairs, a music and library alcove and magnificent views. The living room opens onto the generous kitchen with its modern appliances, including an induction stove-top, an oven and two refrigerators (main and beverages). The kitchen is fully equipped, and has ample cabinet space. It is framed by a counter island with high-chair seating for four, and a dining alcove with a beautiful dining table and spectacular mountain views. Also off the living room is a wooden terrace, the perfect place to sit in the morning with a cup of coffee and watch the sun rise over the Hudson Valley. On clear days you can see as far as the Berkshires - we are in the Catskills! Behind the living room are two lovely bedrooms. One features a charming four-post Queen-size bed (shown in the photos) and looks out over the pool area. The bedroom next to it is the same size (also with a Queen size bed) and looks onto the garden and Bocci court. The second bathroom (shown), with its modern design, is right across from the bedrooms. A spiral staircase brings you up to the generously proportioned Master Bedroom under the roof. The MB features a new, natural-fiber King size mattress (all mattresses in the house are new and natural fiber), ample closet and storage space and a TV. En suite is the beautiful and bright Master Bathroom with a bubble-stream tub and a natural-light flooded shower. Making your way back down and across the pool deck will take you to the Spa-House - and here you are in for a treat, the piece-de-resistance! The grand room is dominated by luxurious leather couches and walls of windows granting 180 degree views. Sink into these chairs with a good glass of wine and you know that this world is not such a bad place after all. In the summer you can open four large French doors and enjoy the breeze and the sound of silence - or listen to your favorite music on the ample stereo system. The grand room of the Spa House has its own terrace with a full range of magnificent Catskill mountains views. Downstairs from the grand room is the large, fully tiled garage. The original owner of the property, a modern gentleman, kept his 1976 Rolls Royce convertible here. You can still use it as a garage, especially in the winter. But chances are, you will have too much fun playing pool on the perfectly kept pool table or exercising on the gym equipment to even notice that it is meant as a garage. Outside you'll find a vast, open lawn with two beautiful birch trees, tremendous oak trees standing sentinel, and of course the stroll down to our private pond. The pond is situated in the lower part of the property, almost tucked away, and very much in its own, unperturbed world. This is the magic garden where you expect a fairy to whisper sweet secrets into your ear at any moment. Take the kids for a row boat ride on the pond. Watch the leisurely gold fish. Have a picnic at the shaded table with your bare feet caressed by the deep, lush moss. Feel eternity and timelessness. Back at the house, the Bocci court beckons, and the beautiful garden. But maybe your favorite thing to do will be to sit on the cushions by the outdoor fire pit, see the sparks fly into night and take in the glow of the mountains. Winter: Skiing: Hunter and Belleayre 30-40 minutes drive. Magnificent cross-country trails nearby. Please note that the drive-way is sloped. While we will have it plowed and sanded for you, please be prepared and bring snow chains for your tires.

Great living spaces combined fantastic outdoor spaces.
Wonderful place to congregate or to sneak off and explore on your own.
Quaint and eclectic town at your footsteps.
Fun was had by all ages.
Highly recommend and would love to see in any season!

This was our 2nd time staying at the house. You can’t beat the location and views. We had 3 generations at the house, everyone enjoyed themselves from lounging by the pool or looking for frogs down by the pond. Something for everyone, we will definitely be returning again.

This house is situated on the most beautiful and tranquil property. It provides so many spaces to relax and listen to the birds and enjoy the view, with plenty of shade as well as sunny areas. Communication was excellent. Beds super comfy. Packed with everything we needed in the kitchen. And a few minutes drive to town. It's a special place and we highly recommend it.

The view alone was worth the cost. A very peaceful and restful home located close to town - we loved every minute.

We had an utterly lovely stay at this beautiful home. The main house was large, airy, light-filled, but still cozy & boasted views to die for from every room. The spa house was our favorite place to hang out – a full gym for my hubby, the pool table, Steinway piano, & Fender guitar for the boys and for me – well the entire second floor – floor to ceiling windows overlooking the majestic Catskill mountains (and all the way to the Berkshires), a record player & record collector even Harvey Specter would be envious of, and walls and walls of books! Because of abundance of stunning views from both houses, we didn’t have to leave the property to enjoy the Catskills – which came in helpful when it rained or when we couldn’t tear our boys away from the pool table! The kitchen was the perfect size and well-stocked and the dine in nook felt like it was tucked into the woods. My husband and I enjoyed our morning coffee and afternoon wine from all the lovely balconies. The seating everywhere was so comfortable and thoughtfully arranged. We loved watching movies at night downstairs on the comfortable leather sofa with the massive TV screen. The house was just perfect, and we hope to stay again, maybe in the summer when we can enjoy the pool and deck with the views. The proximity to the heart of Woodstock & Tinker St was another pleasant surprise – lots of great dining nearby! Rachel was amazing to work with – very pleasant, extremely accommodating & super responsive! Don’t hesitate to stay here!

The place is extremely private with breath taking views. 5 minutes from town. The Spa house was a great place to relax or workout. There was not a spot on the property or in the house that you didn’t have an amazing view. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and plan on returning.

Just what we needed
Beautiful property only 5 minutes from downtown Woodstock. The views are stunning and the pool was so relaxing. The property was perfect for our family of 6 adults and the spa house is an added bonus. The owner was very responsive. We would love to stay again!

My family and I had a wonderful stay here - the house was perfect, with great views of the mountains. The pool area was awesome and again had fabulous views. Our favorite was the pool house with a huge record collection and library. We escaped there at night while our kids were sleeping to play games and listen to old records watching the sunset. Would definitely go back!

Peaceful Setene and majestic The view alone was worth the price. The music station was like no other we were so disappointed that we lost it coming into NJ. The pool was wonderful and soothing. All the bedrooms were spacious and air-conditioned. The Spa room had exercise gear and a piano in the same room . I played the piano since I am a musician and it was in tune and sounded incredible. Upstairs they had fantastic record collection and very eclectic. It had Jazz Rock Funk Classical Blues pop. Something for everyone. The kitchen had everything you needed to cook. The showers were the right temperature. We played bocci ball and we lost in a tight game with my daughter and her fiancee. But I crushed them at the game Risk. The view was just magnificent unlike anything I ever saw. Just beautiful. Its about 5min from downtown Woodstock. I had a chance to play at the Ulster community event where they were giving out free food. I managed to get gig there!! I am so glad we booked this instead if a cruise. We are coming back next year with about 8 people. Oh I forgot there is a beautiful pond nearby if you want to fish. There were kinds of things available that you could see they really paid attention to detail and you as customer. Everything you needed to know was in a booklet that explained how use the stereo the TV. There pool lights for night swimming and the pool is saltwater and solar heated. I cant say enough great things about the chalet except we will be back next year. We cooked outside on the grill which was easy to use. Oh and the Buddah statues and African chairs also the wind chimes outside gave it nice touch. It was a great time and we will be back!!

We spent a wonderful long weekend with our children and grandchildren. The view is incredible from many indoor and outdoor seating options.

The location of this property was spectacular. There were lots of outdoor spaces to relax and enjoy the view. The Spa House was our favorite space to relax in. Great music selection and a wonderful spot to do yoga.
The Main House was disappointing especially for the rate per night that we paid. The home is not well taken care of and needs some sprucing up. There are too many things to mention in this review.
If improvements are made this home would be well worth the money.

Inground pool in a beautiful mountain setting. Beautiful grounds to explore.... small trails, a pond with rowboats and a Bocci ball court. The home is spacious, woodsy and artsy. Loved the mountain room with albums to spin, the gym and pool table. Smaller balcony off kitchen was a favorite morning coffee spot. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

It was such a pleasure staying at this property. This home boasts some of the Best Views in the Catskills. We saw as far the Berkshires and Vermont. We were lucky enough to be staying here during some a moon and the pictures we took are amazing. The town of Woodstock is one of the nicest little Upstate NY towns by far. Very hospitable especially during these covid times we are in. This home is quite unique, with plenty of space for all to enjoy. We stayed in December, but I would imagine it would be even lovelier here in the warmer months, having the pool and lake below the property. We especially enjoyed our time in the second part of the property, listening to music and playing games. The views from this room were breathtaking. All of the bedrooms were furnished with lovely linens and furnishings. Bathrooms, all quite nice for sure. The kitchen and dining area were very spacious as well. Communication with booking and check in all went smoothly. Overall, anyone looking to stay in the Woodstock area, should highly consider this property. If we had one negative thing to say, it would be that the main house was not quite as clean as we would have liked it to be. Upon arrival, there were counters and floors that we needed to clean first before we even unpacked our belongings. That being said, it was a wonderful time away and we would definitely go back. Stay well :)

Had a great weekend enjoyed every part of the property. Rachel and Goetz could not have been nicer and went the extra mile to make sure we enjoyed Christmas at the house. Wonderful place and spectacular views and a must see in person!
