Get away from it all and connect with nature at our luxurious cabin located right in the heart of the highly coveted Woodland Valley neighborhood of the Catskills. Conveniently located 9 min from downtown Phoenicia, 20 min from Woodstock for dining and culture, and 4 min from hiking trailheads. We painstakingly and lovingly designed the spa cabin, and if you come take advantage of all that it has to offer, we have no doubt you'll come away feeling rested, rejuvenated, and at one with nature! With so much to offer inside the cabin and on the grounds, you'll feel like you're having your own private wellness retreat. The cabin features an indoor jacuzzi bathtub, a steam shower, a rain shower, and heated floors for a true spa-like experience. There's a small gym that has a Peloton bike with unlimited classes, a treadmill desk, and a weight bench. There's also a wood-burning fireplace, high-quality kitchen appliances, a home theater system with Netflix, a laundry room, and an office setup perfect for working from home. Outside on the grounds, you'll have two ponds, a stream and miles of primitive hiking trails, all to yourself! There's also an area with a firepit, bbq grill and hammock. Directly across the street is Woodland Creek where you can swim or just sit and enjoy the beautiful sights and sounds of the rushing water. Located on the eastern face of Panther Mountain which is located in the heart of Catskill Park, you'll have access to all the best hiking trails of the Catskills within minutes. The property borders the state park so you could even hike to the top of Panther mountain from the backyard if you're an expert hiker, but we recommend driving 5 minutes to the Woodland Valley Campground trailhead and starting from there for a well-maintained trail. There are a number of outstanding local eateries just a few minutes away plus it's just a 9-minute drive to the quaint town of Phoenicia and 20 minutes to the buzzing culture and food scene of Woodstock. You'll have exclusive access to the cabin and the grounds including the secluded pond and all the hiking trails. The big pond is shared with our neighbor to the left and the stream is shared with our neighbor to the right. You'll want to have your own car as Ubers are not easy to come by here. Woodland Valley is home to more animals than people. There's a good chance you'll see deer, squirrels, chipmunks, wild turkeys, and tons of other species of birds. They're all completely harmless. There are also black bears who live in the area but encountering one is extremely rare and they don't present a risk to humans unless they feel their young are endangered. The cabin is situated at the front of the property, close to the street but the road has no through-traffic and houses are spaced far apart so you'll find it extremely quiet and serene. Furry friends are welcome but we charge a small one-time fee to cover the extra cleaning costs and wear so please be sure to add them when entering how many guests are coming, or reach out to us and let us know!
