A large red country style home set on 2 acres bordering a forest. You may meet some deer munching on the grass, or spot tracks from a foraging bear or other natural wildlife. Frogs and toads aplenty, can be found hanging out by the pond. During spring and summer, you most probably will hear plenty of their croaking if you venture over and the splashing as they slide into the water. After rain or winter, dress shoes are not a great choice out on the grass; it is the rural mountains with real earth, puddles and sometimes wet muddy areas next to pond. Watery times? No worries, a makeshift Girl Scout path of pieces, planks and stepping stones offers a way to the bright red bridge over to the island. But do watch your step. Out on the island or pond side, take in the forest around you and natural scene. You may be able to spot some of the little fish underwater or weather conditions may cast a blue or green masking over the water depending on the time of year. If you love the beauty of nature, taking an unbridled course, breathe in and take in the dozens of natural plants and various insects scurrying around the yard outdoors. We do try to safely keep them out of the house of course, but if you’re lucky you may find one or two that snuck in and didn't yet get caught. A masterful spider glistening in the dew of a newly built web, leaves, snow drifts, rocks and pebbles lend to the habitat away from the city. The stone back patio is a great private spot to sit around and chat or take off your clothes and slip in to the relaxing hotub filled with mountain fresh well water. Yes, thats right, the refreshing Catskill’s water is fresh from underground mountain sources, rich in natural minerals. Minerals fluctuate with the ecosystem, sometimes giving off a colored ting especially after heavy rain to the tub, sometimes crystal clear, sometimes blue mountain or emerald, always tested and cleaned though. Spring and summer with the crickets singing from the acres of forest behind you or winter in the chilled or snowy white evenings, I just love soaking in the warm calming water. Indoors, a mix of rooms and room sizes, with varied sleeping spaces and layouts offering a chic countryside style, greets you. Lots of windows and sunlight in most rooms, one or two rooms without windows offers the late sleepers their choice. Prepare your dinner in the modern new kitchen on the granite counters, while preserving a more country vibe in the sitting area’s furnishings and decor. Some guests asked for more space for another few friends or family, so in addition to the primary 5 bedrooms, we purposed the little room off the master bedroom with a bunk bed for an extra half room (‘the kids room’, it’s a favorite for parents to keep their little ones nearby but has worked great for adults too –especially the friends who want to sleep in). The former Chef's quarters off the kitchen, tastefully offers up another large bunkbed in cozy space too. So if its an change from hectic life, an escape from the noisy city streets or just a few days with family or friends to enjoy nature you're looking for; this rustic getaway will not disappoint!! Hey, leave behind your dress shoes and come unwind in this wholesome haven.
