For our snow bunnies, we are 40/50 minutes from beautiful Hunter and Windham Mountains. In addition to world class skiing and snowboarding, there are zip-lines, tubing, and many other activities for all ages. Please inquire about all other activities as there are too many to list in a description :)

This was a wonderful home & worked amazingly well for me & 3 of my friends. The house was very clean, well laid out and met our all our needs for the week. And starting each day with a morning kayak was heavenly. The location was also great – lots of cute, interesting villages to explore. And Nicole & Dave were very responsive and easy to work with!

There were 10 of us. The house was fantastic. Just about everything was needed was there. The owners thought about almost everything. They had kayaks for just about everybody. stand up boards,fire pit, xbox, media room, ping pong, air hockey, numerous different levels with decks to relax on. The dining room was huge and had a very large table that accommodated all of us. There are 2 pools in the community, tennis courts, pickle ball courts and a basketball court. No one was bored. Would definitely consider staying there again

Fantastic trip

This property was excellent. My family and I enjoyed the lake, pools, hiking trails, restaurants, drive-in movie, farmers market, and kayaking. The kitchen had all the necessary cookware to cook meals for our large group. We had 1 night of bad weather, but it was perfect for watching a movie in the basement. I also appreciated the way the owners left labels and instructions in the house. It may sound silly, but it was very helpful to know what the switches were for or note where we could find things. Overall, it was a fantastic property, community, and surrounding area!

excellent getaway for big families

We had a wonderful stay at the lake house with our family, including both adults and kids. The property was spacious, clean, and very well-maintained — perfect for a relaxing getaway. There was more than enough room for everyone to spread out and enjoy themselves, whether it was lounging indoors or spending time outside near the lake.Check-in and check-out were incredibly smooth, with clear instructions and no hassle at all. Communication with the host was efficient and friendly throughout our stay, which made everything even more enjoyable.We truly loved the place and would definitely come back. Highly recommend for families or groups looking for a peaceful and comfortable retreat!

Beautiful home; wonderful hosts!

What a fabulous time we had in this beautiful home! Girls reunion - we have known each other since sleep away camp which started when we were nine! This was a perfect getaway - easy drive from Boston and from Tarrytown. Can't say enough about this home - it is fully stocked with everything we could have ever needed: games, kitchen appliances (multiple coffee makers), kitchen gadgets, spices, pots and pans, wine glasses, etc. Truly anything! In addition, the hosts were wonderful communicators - answering any questions immediately and checking in on their own to make sure we didn't need anything. Even greeted us with a wonderful welcome basket with treats and wine! In our experience that it above and beyond the norm and very much appreciated. Unfortunately the weather did not cooperate and we weren't able to use the boats on the lake, but the home offers beautiful views and comfortable couches and chairs so it made it very easy to be inside and feel the serenity. Many thanks to Nicole and Dave - great trip!!

A fantastic homebase for Catskills adventures

Nicole & David have a beautiful property nestled away in a cozy neighborhood that was prefect for the weekend trip my friends & I took. We felt immediately at home upon arrival and the hosts made sure we had everything we needed, from an awesome curated list of places to check out nearby to making the most of our time at the house. I couldn't recommend their property enough, all of our first thoughts when leaving was how amazing it would be to come back in the summer.

Wonderful family gathering spot

This lovely lake house felt more updated and larger than the pictures suggest for our Fall trip! There was plenty of space for our 8-person, multi-generational family gathering, and the layout was very conducive to both together-time and breaks. We enjoyed the large dining room table for a big family dinner cooked in the high-end kitchen, after which we retired to the great room, which was more spacious than expected, with a perfect lake view. The ground floor bedroom was great for some elderly family members, and the rest of the bedrooms accommodated all preferences, easily (and were accurately described in the listing). All rooms in the house felt recently updated and modern. The hosts were very responsive and kind. The location is close enough to everything we wanted to do, with at least one adorable farm shop within a 10-minute drive. We braved the colder temperatures for some lake kayaking from the perfectly situated deck (with a kayak launch and plent of equipment). Strongly recommend!

Wonderful Place

We were there for outdoor activities and leaf peeping. Both went very well. The house itself was more than large enough for our four couples. The very functional kitchen had high end applicances and was large and well stocked. The neighborhood was very quiet and conducive to running/walking/cycling. The nearby Catskills had lots of interesting hikes. We went to a surprisingly good winery (whitecliff) on a rainy day Hosts responded very quickly to all queries. The only downside is that there is no grocery shopping nearby, but that is expected in a rural area. We'll probably come back in the summer when there are many lake activities to participate it.

Perfect Family Vacation

This was our 4th year staying at Camp Summer Wind. It is a beautiful home on a quiet area of the lake. The location is perfect for relaxing on the water or being able to use the other amenities available (pool, tennis courts, etc). The pool table and air hockey are great for the kids when taking a break from the heat or on a rainy day. We have also made an annual tradition of going to the local drive in movies during our stay- it is a great area to explore. Nicole and Dave are fantastic hosts. Each year, we continue to be impressed by their availability and quick responses to any questions or needs. Looking forward to returning for our 5th stay next year!

Comfortable, tranquil, beautiful, and FUN!

We 8 adults and 3 children spent a delightful week at Nicole & Dave's home. The 5 BR house is spacious, with lots of spaces inside and out to be together, or alone. TVs and games kept everyone entertained, when not enjoying the surroundings. The lake is calm, and few motor craft use the cove. There are multiple kayacks and a two paddle boards for guests. The gas grill and the kitchen stove worked well, and there are lots of cooking utensils and dinnerware. Finally, Nicole and Dave were welcoming, responsive to our questions, and helpful. Please note: It's a 10 – 20 min. drive to small towns with cafes, restaurants, and shops to enjoy, but no businesses within walking distance, and many places in towns are closed Mon. and Tues. There are parks within a reasonable driving distance where you can hike/walk. However, only a two lane road surrounds the lake with no other walking path in the neighborhood. Lastly, don't forget to pack personal items like beach towels, shampoo and body wash.

We stayed here this fall and it was really beautiful - the house itself is comfortable for a large group allowing for people to have their space, yet also have great places to relax. The backyard is amazing and a big highlight. You have the lake, and while we weren't taking advantage of the amenities due to weather, it was still a great place to hang out and enjoy the view when we could. The hosts were very responsive and maintain the property incredibly well. Highly recommend.
