The space
Sunny 1850 Carriage House in the High Peaks of Catskill Park, with the beautiful sound of the Bushkill Creek flowing by. Clean, airy and peaceful. Newly built bathroom with marble and wood, and a wood stove in living room. Hikes, swimming holes, the Ashokan Reservoir trails and world class fly-fishing at The Esopus Creek are within a couple of minutes. Far from the madding crowds that can occur in Woodstock, while 7 minutes to groceries, a farm stand, bakery, liquor store and cafes serving breakfast & lunch.
Play in our creek, lounge in the hammock, have a fire in the fire pit. The gorgeous Blue Hole, hiking on The Long Path and two other great trails and multiple tall waterfalls are a beautiful drive up our famously scenic road. The house is 5 minutes from the Ashokan Reservoir's paved biking and walking path where you can catch the beautiful mountain views, sunsets, and watch eagles fly. Perfect for strolls or cycling with kids.
One of two entirely separate 150 year old houses along the road with no other visible neighbors. Each house has it's own entirely separate outdoor space. There is an iron grill for the fire pit and a small charcoal grill. The 1000sf of living space described here is the entire top floor. As the lower level is extra tall, the living space feels elevated to the tree tops, something we love! The lower level is unfinished carriage house space, not used in any way during guest stays. The house is entirely yours while visiting.
25 minutes to Woodstock, 15 minutes to Phoenicia and 25 minutes to High Falls and Stone Ridge. 35 minutes to Hunter and 30 to Belleayre skiing.

We feel lucky to live in this beautiful area, and love to tell visitors about our favorite spots. We are very country! We have horses, heat our homes with wood from our property, and love to work on our land. We're raising a border collie puppy named Tullah.
