Newly updated - perfect for large/multiple families 3 miles to ski at Belleayre

Very rare large home, close to all in the heart of Catskills. Open floor plan with large second floor loft that provides a separate space for the kids (or adults), keeping everyone happy and entertained. Five bedrooms, three baths (all on the first floor), two living rooms, game room and two additional private sleeping areas in the loft provide space and flexibility. One of the loft spaces stores extra mattresses for the kids to camp out in the loft. Includes a home office in a quiet part of the loft with large monitor and strong WiFi. Game room loft keeps everyone occupied - Ski ball, shuffle board and poker table.

Large TV with cable and internet channels (Netflix, Hulu, Amazon), DVD player with movies, board games, cards, dice, etc. Also, have extensive collection of outside games.

A cooks kitchen with large island is fully stocked for those large family meals or to bake cookies.

Hardwood throughout, leather and wood surfaces keep it easy to clean. Space is modern but feels warm and friendly. Fireplace is a major attraction for all. Wood is provided and the fireplace will be cleaned in between.

We just recently updated the inside to make it VBRO friendly for our guests. We have also added a new driveway, volleyball court, firepit and basketball outside. While we are on Route 28, the front part of the house is a separate (and empty) owners apartment - adding more privacy. The back of the house has the stream and mountains with 3 acres on the side for the kids to explore/play.

If you are looking to ski or need a much larger space to be together... this is the perfect house for you.

Season or monthly rentals are available at a discounted rate - please contact me for more information.

Great House for 3 Families Going Skiing
The house and location were perfect for our three families with a 5 minute drive to Belleayre. The hosts were easy to communicate with and we love the "welcome snacks" they provided as well as how well stocked the house was. We will definitely stay there again.

Surprise Birthday Ski Party
This house is AMAZING! The best stocked rental I have ever experienced, the owners provide so many amazing touches to this property. Kitchen, laundry room, bathrooms, game room all fully stocked with everything you could possibly need. Plenty of towels, sheets, pillows, blankets, board games, coffee makers, crockpots, cutting boards, serving dishes, spices, stocked mini fridge, bottled water, so much more. I rented the place to surprise my husband with a birthday ski weekend with friends. We had 13 adults staying comfortably at the house, plenty of space and beds. The owners left an overstuffed welcome basket filled with goodies and a special treat for my husband. Belleayre is 3 minutes down the road, perfect location for a weekend full of skiing. The views are amazing, we took a walk back by the fire pit and saw some wildlife. The fireplace inside is beautiful, great chill atmosphere with full shuffelboard and skeeball in the loft. The owners are very responsive, so incredibly easy to work with and overly accommodating. On the day of checkout it had snowed overnight, they were there bright and early plowing the driveway and shoveling walkways. I only wish I could give this place more stars!

Perfect ski getaway with kids
We loved this house so much!!! We had 3 families, which included 6 adults and 8 kids...we had more than plenty of space!! The kids loved playing in the loft. The kitchen was well stocked with spices and pans etc. 2 different coffee machines and coffee cups were provided. The kids loved the welcome basket of snacks which we also used to carry along while skiing at Bellyeare. Location is so close to the mountain which really helped when you have little kids. Fire pit to make s'mores was awesome and the owners even provided smore sticks! Laundry machines were great. Nest thermostat made it easy to use. Zero complaints! Would love to come back here!!

50th Anniversary Family Celebration
"We had eight adults and a 10 year old grandson. There was more than enough room for all to be comfortable. Checking in was seamless. The house was spotless and so well stocked. Eyes lit up when the goodie basket was spotted! Too much really. There were games galore, more than we could possibly play. Sitting around the fire eating s'mores, making meals in the kitchen which had any gadget you could want, grilling on the deck.....all things we enjoyed. We hiked, rode the gondola, played minigolf and enjoyed the beautiful mountains. Thank you Dorothy."

Wonderful property
My family stayed over the weekend of June 10th for a family wedding nearby. We could not say enough great things about this house. We were greeted with an amazing basket of snacks and goodies and just a great feeling of warmth. If you are looking for a place to stay in this area you will not find a better house than this. The owners were attentive leading up to our stay and responsive to any question. Everything was just perfect.

Excellent multi-family house for Belleayre skiing
Loved it. Stayed with 3 families with many children. Everyone had a wonderful time. Nicely updated kitchen, well stocked. Lots of bedrooms for people to spread out. Indoor fireplace and outdoor firepit. Lots and lots of games for the kids to play. 5 minute drive to Belleayre for skiing. Dorothy was a very organized host. Would love to come back!

Amazing Ski Trip Location
Overall we had a great stay and we were amazed by how fully stocked the home was with not only the basic essentials, but much more. The close proximity to the mountain resorts made it an easy commute to maximize your time. Will definitely recommend this home to anyone trying to have a nice weekend at the slopes.
