Fun Catskills Visit

Nice property with plenty of amenities to host us and our two grandsons. Comfortable beds. Pool table and air hockey table in the basement were very popular. Pretty well stocked kitchen. Hot tub was nice but most of the jets weren’t working. Quiet setting but close to Prattsville and Hunter. We had a nice stay.

Perfect base for ski weekend

The house was clean and cozy and a perfect base camp for a weekend of skiing at belleayre. It’s about 20 min from the mountain and had a cozy couch to relax and watch a movie on after a day on the slopes with kids.

Great Holiday Getaway

This home was perfect for our family weekend trip. It was clean, had plenty of room for us, and was conveniently-located close to Hunter Mountain and local restaurants. Rick was easy to get in touch with and was very responsive. The family especially enjoyed sitting in the hot tub as the snow fell.

We stay at this property every year. It’s in a perfect private location and has a hot tub. We brought our dog so the enclosed deck was perfect. Hunter only 15 minutes away and hiking and west kill brewery not too far down the road. The house is spacious and clean we will be back next year!

Mini - moon stay

We loved our stay at Ricks place! We went after our wedding to get away and unwind for a couple days. The house was great! Lovely view, hot tub, plenty of space and things to do. It was exactly what we needed and wanted. We were sad to leave and were talking immediately about when we could return to take advantage of the location since we didn’t do much exploring this stay

Amazing getaway from it all with spectacular views and lots of stuff to do and relax

This way an amazing getaway to chase last snow of the season. The place is secluded and close enough to everything. You don’t event have to leave the place if you want - you have a huge terrace with a beautiful Mountain Views, hot tub, jacuzzi, games, grill and welcoming home inside. We will be back in no time ti explore spring and summer in Catskills.

Fun Birthday

We went just for the 3 day weekend. Our host was nice enough to set up a birthday surprise. Complete with table cloth, signs and other fun stuff. Sadly it rained the whole time. But luckily we still enjoyed the hot tub and the other fun games and activities available at the house. We also drove through the countryside and admired the changing leaves and the nearby falls. The brewpub up the road was wonderful too. With live music and a roasting fire. Even our pup was welcome. Turned out to be a lovely weekend despite the weather.

Nice holiday getaway in the Catskills

This place was nice and well stocked. We enjoyed our 4 days there recently for the purpose of a ski vacation. The only things I would say is that the basement, which has great games, is really a garage in the process of being refinished, not a finished basement. Somehow I did not realize this when booking. The other thing is that it about 20 minutes from the nearest gas station/store so if you run out of anything it is not a quick trip to pick anything up. The hot tub was great though and made the place totally worth it.

Not quite as listed

The door to the basement was broken at the hinge that made going in and out of the basement challenging. There is a window IN the shower. The hot tub did not have lights that we could find. Overall just an eh stay
