This private, light-filled mountain house on 3.5 acres in Gilboa, NY is a perfect secluded retreat for adventurers and families. Relax while grilling out on the large deck with great mountain views, then start a fire in the wood burner or fire pit, or enjoy the sunset from the hot tub!

The cabin is located near Hunter, Windham, and Plattekill ski areas, as wells as Minekill State Park and the Catskill Scenic Trail, and various wedding venues making it a perfect weekend getaway or a great spot to settle in longer term.

We also have a hot tub right off the deck that is a perfect place to watch the sunset!
