Welcome to the SonAra retreat, a secluded property where you can enjoy stunning views from every room! Just 5 min from downtown Saugerties, this house is nestled perfectly between the Catskill mountains and all the lively towns the Hudson River Valley has to offer. Outside, this 5 acre property boasts a heated pool, hot tub, fire pit, pond, grill & more. And inside the 4000 sq ft interior you'll find luxurious & fun amenities to ensure that you'll have a memorable (and comfortable!) stay. The space Hi! My name is Matt, and I co-host this property with my wife, Niki. As frequent AirBnB guests ourselves, we set out to create the ultimate year-round AirBnB for groups of all ages and interests to come together and create lasting memories. The property is set on 5.2 acres only 5 minutes off the highway at the foot of the Catskills mountains (No stress access/parking in the winter). The interior of the house is ~3000 square feet and was renovated in 2023 (The basement is currently getting a facelift). Outside we made sure to offer spaces, amenities, and activities for all year round. In the summer we have the heated pool, a BBQ, and a bunch of lawn games including horseshoes, corn hole, bocce ball, croquet, and others. In cooler months we have a wood burning fire pit in the yard, a propane fire pit on the deck, and a heated sunroom near the hot tub. Inside, with the help of the incredible @steven_alan_interiors, we worked through the interior design with a consistent focus on 2 things: 1) making the most of the natural surrounding, and 2) encouraging guests to disconnect and enjoy the company they came with. That's why you'll see features like the "hidden" tv in the living room. Besides the fact that it looks cool, it allows the living area to be better set up for conversation, board games, drinking games, etc. A the same time, all the comforts of home and latest tech is there when you need it, even if it's a bit hidden. And when choosing furniture and room design, we made sure that whether you're there for a bachelorette party, a family reunion, the HITS shows, with a group of friends, or there to work, you'll have everything you need and more to have a great trip. So with that, thank you for your time and interest in our home..
