The "Bird House" Cabin Retreat
Our Birdhouse Retreat is one of the most sought-after destinations for couples and individuals seeking to reconnect with nature. Nestled in the valley of the Taconic and Green Mountains just 30 minutes from Saratoga Springs, NY, boasting quiet solitude. It sleeps 1-3 people. 1000 acre wetland, easy access, unbelievable wildlife viewing. Fish, Ducks, Geese, Blue Heron, Otter, Bobcat, and beaver may be seen in this environment.

Above the cabin is an "eagles nest" perch to gaze at the natural beauty. Just a short walk inland is an out-house. The cabin was built to view the bird life in the area. Because of that, there are birds nests build right into the walls of the cabin. There is a grill provided. ** The Birdhouse is totally off the grid, no electricity, and no wifi. There are also plenty of blankets... Guests can access the entire cabin, perch, private pond, and camping ground around the site.
