Welcome to The Pines!! Nestled on 8 acres in the Catskill Mountains. Enjoy beautiful views of the forest, listen to some records, relax by the fireplace, read a book in the hammock, watch a movie on the projector screen, grill on the deck, or soak in the tub.

The Pines is close to local shops, breweries, live music, farms, and incredible food. Hiking trails, waterfalls, lakes, kayaking, and skiing are right on your doorstep!

The space
(Please read sleeping arrangements below before booking for 4+ people.)

It’s hard to describe how special The Pines is! Newly renovated, soaring ceilings, unique design, open plan living, surrounded by nature and wildlife, with beautiful views of the forest. We're in the heart of the Catskill Mountains.

There are multiple areas to hang out in, reading nooks, board games, a movie theatre loft, ample seating, a well-stocked "chef's" kitchen, and an enormous deck looking out into the forest. The Pines is secluded but just a short drive to so many wonderful places to explore: hiking, skiing, swimming, waterfalls, farms, live music, breweries and wineries, local restaurants, and farmer's markets. If you are looking for the perfect escape from the city, this is it. We promise you the ultimate Catskills getaway.

Our home is a safe space for folks from all historically marginalized groups. We welcome guests of all races, ethnicities, faiths, genders, and sexual orientations. If you have any questions about the house or the area that would make your stay more comfortable, please don't hesitate to contact us.

THE HOUSE:

The airy bedroom has soaring ceilings, a "movie theatre" loft complete with projector screen, bean bags, and the most comfortable couch, and a working space for two with forest views.

The kitchen, dining, and living area is one open space with light streaming in from skylights in every corner. The kitchen has new appliances and is stocked with all the equipment needed to cook a feast. We supply olive oil, salt, pepper, sugar, paper towel, and a large selection of spices. We have a Chemex and a drip coffee machine. We supply ground coffee but also have a coffee grinder in case you'd like to pick up some local beans on the way.

The living room has a cosy fireplace (firewood supplied), TV (with complimentary Netflix), bluetooth speakers, and a record player with a selection of vintage records to play.

The bathroom—our favorite room in the house—is built floor to ceiling with stone. Soak in the deep tub or in the open rain shower and look up to the pines towering above. We supply bubble bath, soap, body wash, shampoo and conditioner, and toilet paper.

The large deck has a dining set, gas BBQ, and chaise lounges and looks out onto the forest. A large hammock is tucked around the back.

We have just built a fire pit area, which is now our favorite feature of the house!

SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS:

House:

The one-bedroom house sleeps four people, but it is more suited to a couple, friends, or a small family. There is a king bed in in the bedroom and a twin pull out sofa bed in the living room and a twin air mattress.

Cabin:

Bookings of 4+ people include the detached queen bed cabin. Smaller groups can book the cabin on request for an additional fee. The cabin is about 60 feet from the house and does not have a separate bathroom. The cabin is available seasonally, so please check in with us before booking it in winter.

Guest access
The entire house and eight acre property is yours.

Other things to note
There is no cell service, but we have reliable fast-speed Wi-Fi.

We have mini-split HVAC air-conditioning and heating, fans, and a fireplace.

Please be respectful of our house and our belongings. We have put so much time, energy, and love into making this space perfect, and we want to continue to be able to share it with guests.

Due to allergies, we are unable to host any cats or dogs.

AREA:
The Catskills are simply beautiful. You'll be surrounded by incredible nature, wildlife, local farms, amazing restaurants and breweries, hiking, swimming, skiing .... After booking, we'll give you access to our online guest guide and area guide that has details of our favorite places nearby. We’re 15 minutes from Margaretville and Andes, 30 from Phoenicia, Bovina, Delhi, Roxbury, and Stamford, and less than an hour to Livingston Manor, Roscoe, West Kill, Hunter, and Woodstock.

WINTER:
We get lots of snow in the winter. From November until April, a 4WD or AWD SUV are essential. Our driveway is steep—if there is a lot of snow on the ground you might have to walk through some snow to reach the house.

We are looking forward to hosting you! Please get in touch if you have any questions.

Jess & James.

Neighborhood highlights

The area is rural and absolutely stunning. It is close to everything you need. Our house is on a long dead end road. The closest towns are the quiet cute towns of Margaretville and Andes (where you'll find a large supermarket, local general store, butcher, wine store, breweries, bars, restaurants, shops). There are lots of deer around, we have seen a bear once or twice, lot's of cows and horses. You will not run out of things to do.
