Peacefully secluded amongst the Catskills forests of New York state, yet less than a ten-minute drive from skiing and snowboarding hotspots and the dining scene of Hunter and Windham, the location of this cabin is bang-on. Thoughtfully designed to be a home for all seasons, winter is for soaking up the nature views from beside the wood burner. Come summer, the action shifts outside to the sprawling woodland garden, complete with a grill and firepit for stargazing and storytelling. Do note, the second bedroom is on a loft level overlooking the main living space. While it’s not the most private setup, the sense of space it brings more than makes up for it.
