There is a queen size mattress in the sleeping loft, and the bench on the first floor has a 6 inch thick foam seat that is the size of a single bed. If you are considering more than two, there is a Sioux Tipi on the 20 acres that has two beds. It can be rented separately or together with the cabin. \-------------------------- You don’t need a car to come to this wonderful 23 acre paradise!  From NewYork City, there is a bus to Saugerties New York.  The bus stop is 5 miles from the property, so the taxi fare is modest.   Search for “Stagecoach Taxi” and you’ll find the phone number. If you prefer, you can take the train to Rhinecliff, New York, but the taxi will cost more, as that is 20 miles.  There is a small deli / market within walking distance – 1 mile.  The market on Tuesdays offers Pakistani dinners that we recommend.  Some days they prepare Mango Lassi, highly recommended! \----------------------- This property has one other retreat on the 23 acres, A Sioux Tipi. The tipi cannot be seen from this cabin. \[As the crow flies, it is about 200 feet away\] Chloe's Cabin is insulated and is heated. There is a sleeping loft with a queen size mattress accessed by a ladder. Chloe's Cabin is 8 feet by 10 feet, and 13 feet high, plus a covered porch. The cabin does not having running water inside. There is a water well with a solar powered pump \[see below\]. The cabin is not connected to the electric grid - that's what 'camping cabin' refers to. We have installed a small solar electric system. This provides 12 V DC to operate a lamp in the cabin and the pump at the well. The Tipi Room has electricity and can be used to charge electronics. There is a Kevlar canoe for your use. Lake has lots of fish - bass, sunnies, and carp. The forest has lots of wildlife, deer, fox, bear, wild turkeys, owls, etc. For cooking there is a 2 burner Coleman camp stove, and outside, a fireplace with a grill. It is an idyllic getaway for those who appreciate nature. In 2018, we plumbed and electrified a small outbuilding \[the "Tipi Room"\] that is about 200 feet from the cabin. The Tipi Room is shared with guests at the tipi. The Tipi Room has hot and cold running water, a toilet, sink, outdoor shower, a microwave oven, and a small refrigerator. As it is not a heated building, the water must be shut off and drained in late October or early November, and is not turned on again until April. \[Otherwise, the plumbing would freeze and break\]. The Tipi Room and the facilities are shared with the guests, if any, staying at a Sioux Tipi, which is the only other structure on the 23 acre property. Year around, it has electricity, if you need to run an appliance or charge a device. In winter, when the water at the Tipi Room must be shut off, there is a well near the cabin with water that operates all year around. There is a floating dock at the edge of the lake. The canoe and the floating dock are shared with guests of the tipi. The dock has a ladder, which is the best way to access the lake to swim. About the area: Saugerties is about 3 miles away, a sweet village with numerous antique shops. The center of Woodstock is 8 miles from the property. The equestrian 'HITS' is nearby. This is at the edge of the Catskill Mountains, with fishing, hiking, tubing, and other outdoor activities nearby. For the past 34 years, this has been one of our favorite retreats, starting in 2011 we began to share it with like-minded people. In the summer months the lake has watermeal, tiny pinhead size leaves that float on the surface. When it's breezy, the lake surface is clear of it, when it's totally calm the leaves spread out on the lake. When cold weather comes, they're gone. Our favorite times there are October through May. The cold weather makes the water clear, lake-like, in summer, it looks more like a pond. A guest has suggested we caution that getting into the sleeping loft requires climbing a ladder, and, if one is not physically fit, old, or overweight, it could be a problem. I am 80 years old, though, and it's still easy for me. As this is a safety issue, please err on the side of caution -- if in doubt, please do not book this cabin. We request anyone much over 200 pounds not book the cabin because of the loft ladder. Below is the outline of a plan we started with in summer 2011, to share it in a way that is reasonably priced without putting too many demands on our time. So far, it has worked out really well, and most of the more than 400 guests over the past few years have enjoyed their stay. When we started thinking about the possibility of sharing it, the question was, how can we do it? The question we faced was, how to make it reasonable in cost, and at the same time, deal with cleaning and housekeeping that goes with having a rental. Our goal was to be able to keep this charming spot, not as a profitable business, but at least have the expenses and taxes covered. After we retired, owning and maintaining a $700,000. property just to camp a few weekends a year became extravagant. To make sharing the cabin work, we decided to ask guests to bring their own sleeping bags and towels, and that they “leave it as they found it” This has worked well, it seems that guests who are interested in this type of retreat are respectful of the property and of the next guest. Most all guests have left the cabin in good shape and clean - this has exceeded our expectations and has been gratifying.. If you're not prepared to leave the cabin clean and tidy, with all the dishes and utensils washed, please don't book this cabin. A few disrespectful guests have left the cabin messy and gotten us a few bad reviews. Every month or so we check out the cabin to restock supplies and fix deficiencies, if any. We have at the cabin plates, glasses, utensils, toilet paper, , candles, a Coleman 2 burner propane stove for cooking, and fuel for it. As it is camping, we ask that you bring sleeping bags, a flashlight, matches, etc. - what you would for any camping trip. If you don't have sleeping bags, you can bring queen size sheets, there are quilts and pillows at the cabin. In front of the cabin there's a fireplace with a grill. The woods are full of kindling. We supply seasoned and split firewood. IN DRY SEASON BE SURE NO COMBUSTIBLES ARE NEAR THE FIRE PIT WHEN YOU MAKE A FIRE, AND DON'T LEAVE AN UNATTENDED FIRE. There is a maul for splitting the seasoned firewood. In 2019, we purchased a “kindling cracker” for the cabin, a really cool device for making kindling from firewood.. We send a photo of it, plus a "campfire primer" to guests after booking. \--------------------------------------------------- Following are notes sent to us by guests who spent a week at the cabin in 2014, with information about getting to the cabin if you don't have a car, and about the \[then\] new well: '- For anyone without a car, the bus from NYC to Saugerties is excellent, the Saugerties Stagecoach taxi to the cabin was not costly.. We brought enough food for 7 days in our backpacks, no problem. \[Host’s note: If you don't bring all the food you need with you, there's a market one mile away that's shown on the topo map we send\] \- We drank the well water - it was perfect. . . Spam heads up: If you don’t receive an email from us with maps and key information shortly after you book, let us know, sometimes our emails to guests go into their spam folder. A recent inquiry asked some questions and we copy them and our reply below: 1) Is it safe there? (I mean, are there any strangers and/or any dangerous animals around?) 2) Is the lake swimmable? 3) How far is the lake from the cabin? Answers It is safe around here. No dangerous animals. We have seen bears a few times on the property, but they are not dangerous. We did have to buy a “bear-proof” trash can. Lots of wildlife, we have seen over the years wild turkey, great blue heron, geese, green heron, ducks, foxes, deer, and now there's a resident beaver family. The lake has sunnies and bass. You may see our enormous grass carp, nearly 3 feet, we introduced years ago to eat algae - it is vegetarian, so you can't catch it with bait. It is advisable not to leave food or anything outside that would attract bears. In addition to fishing in the lake, we often see people fishing in the nearby reservoir from the bridge \[see the topo map for location\]. \> The cabin is about 75 feet from the lake, on a little hill overlooking it. Is it swimmable? For us, it is swimmable, whenever the water is warm enough. We often use flotation devices \[little inner tubes or rafts one can buy for a few dollars\]. In the fall through spring, up until some time in June or so, it is clear and "lake-like." Sometime starting in June, watermeal grows. Watermeal is a plant like a tiny pinhead size leaf. It floats on the surface of the water. When there’s a breeze, it blows to the edge of the lake and the surface is clear of it. If there is no wind, it spreads over the lake. Also, the water gets more pond-like in summer.- some people wouldn't choose to swim in it, but we do. The lake maintains a thermocline all summer - the surface water gets warm, the deeper water stays cool - a thermocline distinguishes a lake from a pond. \------------------------- Regarding the occasional disrepectful guest: If you find that the prior guest has not honored the agreement to leave the cabin clean and tidy, please simply take care of it. If it takes more than, say, 10 or 15 minutes, just send us a note, and we will be fine with reimbursing you for your time. ## Property amenities ### Parking and transportation - Car recommended - Parking on site ### Food and drink - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Microwave - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Stovetop ### Bedrooms - Bedroom ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Toilet paper ### Living spaces - Fireplace ### Entertainment - Books ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Dock - Firepit - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming cats and dogs only - One pet total (up to 50 lbs per pet) ### Suitability/Accessibility - Designated smoking areas ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In a village - On a lake ### Things to do - Boat - Fishing - Kayak - Birdwatching nearby - Cycling nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Hunting nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Sailing nearby - Water tubing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Unit size: 80 square feet ## Similar properties ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/40000000/40000000/39992500/39992472/4bb55136.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Sioux Tipi on Chloe's Lake Saugerties - Kitchen - Pet-friendly - Parking available - Fireplace 9.8 Exceptional 6 reviews CA $155 CA $205 total includes taxes & fees Oct 19 - Oct 20 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-19&endDate=2025-10-20&selected=39992472&PinnedHotelID=39992472&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/87000000/86330000/86326200/86326150/a5e03cb5.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Sexiest Lil Cabin in Saugerties, NY Saugerties - Kitchen - Pet-friendly - Air conditioning - Outdoor space 9.0 Wonderful 13 reviews CA $158 CA $208 total includes taxes & fees Oct 20 - Oct 21 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-20&endDate=2025-10-21&selected=86326150&PinnedHotelID=86326150&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/33000000/33000000/32993700/32993694/27eb39a4.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### A Spectacular 50 Mile View of the Hudson Valley in all seasons Saugerties - Kitchen - Free WiFi - Air conditioning - Outdoor space 9.8 Exceptional 92 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-31&endDate=2025-11-01&selected=32993694&PinnedHotelID=32993694&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Children's area](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33910000/33906300/33906244/5d0b5fdd.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Charming Woodstock Teahouse Cottage by the Sawkill Creek trout stream woodstock - Kitchen - Pet-friendly - Air conditioning - Outdoor space 9.2 Wonderful 44 reviews CA $253 CA $428 total includes taxes & fees Oct 26 - Oct 27 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-26&endDate=2025-10-27&selected=33906244&PinnedHotelID=33906244&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/100000000/99550000/99543900/99543833/855d7f0d.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Country Cottage with beautiful views and easy access to Catskills activities.

A great place to drink a beer (or wine), grill something and hangout on the porch next to a the fire pit. Woodstock is close by if you prefer to to go out for a meal or drinks. We recommend Peakamoose restaurant in Big Indian (Rt. 28) if you wish for amazing food and wine. As the owners say, this is really a camping cabin.

Water from the pump was cold and tasted great. Nice bed in the loft. I slept with the upper screen open and the front door open and screen door hooked in place. Nice cool night. I thoroughly enjoyed pitching a fire and watching it get dark and listening to the woods. Had fun calling back to an owl and listening to bullfrogs down in the pond. Stirred up a buck in the morning. Just beautiful out there. Hot/cold showers at the tipi site did the job! ##### Larry B.

It was just what I needed on a little getaway. It's a short drive away from Woodstock, Saugerties and the Ashokan Reservoir so I spent most of my days exploring those parts. I also went hiking in nearby Hunter Mountain. It was wonderful to sit out on the porch and enjoy the sunset hours. My last evening there, I watched 3 deer and a small (harmless looking) black bear run by the lake. I also saw a coyote in the woods. It was so cool. The cabin itself is kept up very nicely. It's quaint and cozy and clean. I will certainly consider coming back. My only qualm, if any, was that there were neighbors sort of nearby that were loud in the early evening hours. I think they were having house guests so they were playing music, etc. It wouldn't prevent me from returning, though. I had a wonderful time on my weekend excursion! ##### Emily J. ### 2/10 Terrible #### Edward L.

I stayed at Chloe’s Cabin for a night and it was one of the worst experiences of my life. First off let me say this was partially my fault. I had originally booked the Tipi on the property because it seemed cool, but switched to the cabin because it listed having a bathroom. I made that choice. It was the wrong choice. The cabin is a filthy moldy abomination. There are ‘supplies’ inside that are all out of date by two to three years. The ‘blankets’ a bedding supplies all smell musty and like mold. The ladder up to the sleeping area is awkward to use. There is no COMFORT about the cabin. Also the bathroom that made or broke my decision doesn’t actually exist. That’s right. The listed bathroom is not actually existent. Instead there is a bucket with rusted hand rails located 100 yards behind the cabin filled with rotting feces. Yes. A bucket full of ancient refuse. That is not a bathroom. I was willing to give them a pass though kinda. I was. Like the price was cheaperish and over the phone the owner sounded like a country man. Maybe he thought the cabin was comfortable. Maybe he thought a bucket was a bathroom. And then on my way out I swung by the tipi. Y’all. Book the tipi. There is so much more effort artistry and care put into the tipi site. Let me go over some things the tipi site has over the cabin. -Running water -A shower -A fridge -A sink -A KITCHEN IN GENERAL -A SHOWER THE TIPI IS SO MUCH BETTER IT MADE THE CABIN WORSE. DO NOT BOOK THE CABIN. ##### Edward L.

Aug 8, 2021 Liked: Location Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication #### Overpriced cabin, but nature was nice The cabin is much overpriced. A decent price should be about $65-$80 a night. It is smelly and needs a new a new sleeping mattress as well as a new mattress for the downstairs seating. I could not even sit on it for the smell. There was also a lack of large mugs and bowls for cooking. But the view and the nature with deer, beavers, herons, turkeys and a snake (cottonmouth at the edge of the lake) were wonderful and I enjoyed sitting at the fire pit in the evenings. There is a 10 minute walk (or two minute paddle across in the canoe) to the tipi room with the toilet and the outdoor shower (which is surrounded by broken glass and is viewable from the road). Luckily there was no one in the tipi across the lake other than one night and when we were both sitting at the lake/pond in the evening we were looking right at each other which is a little strange. I did not find the lake/pond swimmable, the deck was falling apart and the ladder was not attached. There was also something in the lake that ate a big bird one evening, so I stayed on shore. So nature is a plus while the accommodations could use some updating and improvement. ##### Anki K. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2021 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Dean S.

Quaint, quiet, and relaxing. Previous guests leave behind small food items and supplies, as we did as well. It was a rustic outing without being completly without. It wasnt an issue sharing with the tipi group either. Just a couple of recommendations... shower curtain for outdoor shower, pathway around shower to keep feet clean. Update of locations to go for hiking and water holes. We found a couple that were listed are no longer active. Other than that. No complaints and we are definitely going back. Wanted to actually rent both the cabin and tipi for Father's day weekend but wasnt available. Thank you for sharing this beautiful location. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Julie P.

Nov 27, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Way To Camp My partner and I really enjoyed this camping cabin. It is the perfect place to introduce yourself to camping if you aren’t comfortable with just a tent. Being that it was October the water was shut off so therefore there was no bathroom or shower that was available which was OK because we understood that due to their very clear directions. When we first got there the cabin was very cold but the heater that is in the cabin warmed it up within five minutes at no point where we ever cold! We made breakfast and washed the dishes with the water that is available via the water that is ran by an electric pump. Yes you do hear some neighbors at times but it was ever disturbing. The host are very specific that they do not go and clean the cabin after every stay and that it is based on the honor system. Though it wasn’t dirty I did feel as if I was in someone else’s cabin rather than renting one for myself (blankets left behind, coffee, sugar etc). However this did not hinder our stay, again the host are very detailed in the description of the rental property as well as the functionality of it. They are very hands off but are very responsive if need be. We came back home relaxed and still can’t stop talking about how much we enjoyed our stay. If you are thinking of renting this location make sure to read through all other details that they provide. We will for sure be back during the summer so we can enjoy the lake! Thank you for allowing us to stay in your cabin and we appreciate the length of which you have went through to be detailed in your guidelines that is what allowed us to be prepared and enjoy our time. ##### Sharisse G.

The view from the cabin is great and the lake has beavers and other wildlife. We also saw an owl. The cabin is small but we usually tent camp so this was a huge step up for us when it rained. We wre able to sit and watch the storm from under the covered porch. If you are expecting a campground...this is not that type of experience. The bathroom is a bit of a walk from thr cabin but certainly not far. Theres a solar powered light in the cabin and a pump for an underground well. That water isnice cold! We are already planning on coming back next year. We had very good responses from the owners and we really enjoyed our time in the little csbin. ##### Jeffrey K. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jessica d. Jun 7, 2019 #### Amazing As Always This cabin is a beautiful and rustic space. A couple of our friends came to have a look and were surprised there was no bathroom, but I wouldn't have it any other way. The site is gorgeous, and the cabin is a cozy respite from the outdoors. This space does require that you love the outdoors. My husband loves the meditative act of building a fire, and we spent an evening there reading one of the books from the shelf aloud while our dog chewed on a salmon skin from dinner we had made over that same fire. This place is positively magical. ##### Jessica d.
