Private Vacation Home
NEW: Stylish Super Private Log Home near State Park in Bethel
Bethel, New York, United States
Highlights: Amazing Bethel location with a huge patio. Seclusion, yet minutes to Bethel Woods, Lake Superior, and restaurants. brbrWelcome to Huddle House! If you want a cozy, country, stay near a great town, this is it! brbrThis modern and updated log cabin is adjacent to Lake Superior and Bethel Woods Center for the Arts. Tucked away on a private 15-acre enclave, it would be easy to just while away your day on the terrace, enjoying the silence, nature, and a cup of tea. But should you change your mind, before the water has even finished boiling, you could be at Bethel Woods enjoying a concert or looking at the menu of a Condé Nast Traveller Best New Restaurant in America, just 5 minutes away.brbrHere at Huddle House, guests can experience the ultimate in Catskill's living, with woods, lakes, and hiking available all day, and restaurants, music, and great local breweries for after-hours fun.brbrThe house is lovely, with the warm, cozy glow that only natural wood can give. The big surprise of this house will be the airy living room with its soaring cathedral ceiling, designer lighting, and stone fireplace, a proper mix of comfort and style. Two deep sofas and a large-screen smart TV offer plenty of opportunities for relaxing. brbrThe living room flows easily into both the kitchen and the solarium, a sunlight-drenched space perfect for a quiet moment with coffee. As it overlooks the garden, it's also the perfect perch from which to watch the children enjoying the garden. brbrThe main level also holds two guest bedrooms with queen sized beds and full-size bathroom with tub/shower combo.brbrOn the upper level, there is a queen-sized bedroom that has an ensuite bathroom. Off of the suite, French doors lead to a private covered deck with seating. Just outside of the bedroom is a mezzanine loft area with seating, the sofa of which converts to a bed if extra space is needed. brbrTHE KITCHEN & MEALS brA well-stocked kitchen, coffee station, and adjacent comfortable dining for 6 are the ingredients for great meals during your stay. There is also outside dining on the rear deck.brbrFAMILY & FUN brLike all Upstate Place properties, this home has a crib, highchair, baby bath, etc., to make the smallest guest's stay welcoming and easy. The house provides well for all activities: picnic blankets for the nearby lake and hikes, snacks for nibbles, and propane and firewood for outdoor living. brbrIdeally, the house would suit a family, a small group, or multiple couples vacationing together. brbrFEATURES AND AMENITIES br• Modern kitchenbr• Main level bedroom and bathroombr• Dining area with seating for 6br• TVbr• Work/office areabr• Books & gamesbr• Wi-Fi - very goodbrbrFAMILY-FRIENDLY br• Crib and beddingbr• Highchairbr• Booster seat br• Children's plates, bowls, and cupsbr• Toys and gamesbr• Baby Bathbr• Child/baby gatesbrbrOUTDOOR FEATURES br• Private lawn and woodsbr• Outdoor dining for 6 br• Barbecue grill - propane providedbr• Firepit - wood providedbr• Sun terracebr• Outdoor seatingbr• Driveway parking for six vehiclesbrbrPET FRIENDLY brThis is a V.I.Pooch Pawperty, and your furry friend can expect the following: br• Dog bedbr• Bowlsbr• Toysbr• Poop bagsbr• Shampoobr• First aid kitbrbrLAYOUT brThree Level Home, lower basement level is locked storage.brThe main level has the entry, living room, kitchen, dining area, two bedrooms, bathroom, solarium, and front porch and rear deck access.brThe upper level has one bedroom, ensuite, and a sitting area / mezzanine loft space with a fold-out bed.brThe lower level has locked storage and a workshop.brbrBEDROOMS & BATHROOMS br• Bedroom 1 - Main level, queenbr• Bedroom 2 - Main level, queenbr• Bathroom 1- Main level w/ tub/shower combobr• Bedroom 3 - Upper-level queenbr• Bathroom 2 - Upper level ensuite w/ tub/shower combobr• Bathroom supplies with full products (Public Goods shampoo, conditioner, body wash, cotton balls, Q-tips, etc.)brbrSTAFF & SERVICESbrExtra cost (advance notice required):br• Pantry/wine pre-stockingbr• Mid-stay Housekeepingbr• Kayak, paddle-board, and water bike rentalsbrbrSKI ACCESS br• 18 miles to Holiday Mountain Ski & Fun Parkbr• 28 miles to Ski Big Bear at Masthope Mtnbr• 57 miles to Belleayre Mountain brbrAIRPORTSbr• 57 miles to Stewart International (SWF)br• 66 miles to Wilkes Barre (AVP) br• 92 miles to Teterboro (TEB)br• 103 miles to Westchester (HPN)br• 112 miles to Newark Liberty (EWR)br• 123 miles to John F. Kennedy (JFK)brbrPLEASE NOTEbrThere is a long, reasonably flat driveway to the house. The driveway is plowed in winter, but a four-wheel drive is recommended to explore the area.brbrAs this house has three levels, accessing the upper and lower floors may not be suitable for those who need help with steps/stairs. brbrThis house is in a rural environment surrounded by countryside, farms, and wildlife. While it's wonderful to observe the eagles, deer, bears, and adorable chipmunks, it can also mean you will hear coyotes and foxes at night and encounter the less cute mice, flies, snakes, ants, bees, and ticks. There is very little to be done about it, but by keeping doors closed or screened and food in its appropriate storage, unwelcome guests will stay outside where they belong.brPlease respect all house rules listed in the guidebook provided, as well as the privacy of this quiet community.
