Note: the red adjacent barn is storage only - no one lives there or will be staying there.

As of Aug. 2025, we have a brand new Nordic hot tub and deck with comfortable seating. Please no music/loud noise outside after 10pm.

Luxurious linens on both the king and queen beds; bath towels provided.
TRX gym system queen (master) bedroom.
Shampoo, conditioner, and bath soap provided. Epsom salt and essential oils for use in the claw foot bathtub.
Washer and dryer available for use.
Gas range and oven, dishwasher, microwave, toaster oven, juicer, blender, food processor, stand (dough) mixer, hand mixer, cookware, and serving dishes all included for guest use.
Sonos sound system for streaming music in every room; record collection (including lots of older jazz, blues, swing, and classic oldies) can also be played through the system.

We've received a few questions about A/C - it's not needed! This region of the Catskills is usually about 10 degrees cooler than the city, and because of the open barn layout, we find that the house stays cool and comfortable (a max. in the low 70s), even in mid-summer. For our guests' comfort, there are fans in every room.

Sorry, no pets allowed.
No smoking allowed on property.
Shoes off inside, please!

Guest access
Guests will be able to access two large bedrooms and two bathrooms. The main living space has a gourmet kitchen, island with bar stools, a table that seats 8, and a seating area around the wood burning fireplace stove. Outside there is casual seating for 4 and a fire pit (spring through early autumn only). In addition, the property sits on 5.5 acres of land and is near by to great hiking, restaurants, swimming, tubing, and skiing.

Other things to note
The cabin is furnace heated in the winter, and stays unusually cool indoors during the summer, so no air conditioning needed; however, we do have several fans in the house.

Neighborhood highlights

Big Indian is a hamlet in the town of Shandaken, New York. Our home is in the lovely Oliverea Valley portion of Big Indian.

Feel free to wander the property and up the cleared path on the hillside at your own risk, as hillside is steep and can be slippery. You can reach the Esopus Creek across the street for a dip of you are feeling adventurous – but please be respectful of neighbors and private property. Giant Ledge and Panther Mountain trail-head is just a short drive away.
