Charming Cottage with Jacuzzi, Fire Pit and Access to Nearby Lakes!

Nestled in the hamlet of Smallwood, only 2 hours from NYC, this newly renovated 2BR/1BA cottage is the perfect getaway from the city and an oasis surrounded by nature. The area has several nearby public lakes such as Toronto Reservoir which is a local gem where you can swim, fish and boat; Lake Superior State Park which is only 5 mins away and is family friendly, has grills, bathroom/changing areas, paddle/row boat rentals and a lifeguard on duty and White Lake in Bethel which is a public lake and has swimming and boat rental facilities and lovely lake view restaurants to grab delicious food on a beautiful warm day. The Forest Preserve in Smallwood has hiking trails and a waterfall, and there is so much more to explore such as Bethel Woods Center for the Arts (the original Woodstock site!), an alpaca farm, waterpark, Legoland or cute towns with great dining options. At night, gather on the spacious deck or around the fire pit or take a dip in the spa jacuzzi.

Our lovely 2BR/1BA cottage has been updated with a new kitchen, bathroom and a large deck that features a spacious jacuzzi. As soon as you enter, you walk into a spacious and open concept space that features a living room with comfortable seating that opens up onto the deck in the back, the dining space, and an open kitchen that offers another entrance onto the deck. The fully stocked kitchen features an island with plenty of space to prepare meals as well as be a gathering area for everyone to be together. Both cozy bedrooms have large windows that look out into nature and invite you to feel like you're part of it. We have fast and reliable internet for your streaming or work on your laptop needs. The deck which overlooks the beautiful woodland garden can be accessed from the living room and kitchen. It features a comfortable seating area with a fire pit, a jacuzzi and a bbq grill. The house is as comfortable as it is functional.

KITCHEN
The newly remodeled kitchen features an electric slide in stove and is stocked with everything you need to prepare meals including a french press, microwave, toaster and blender. We offer our guests coffee, tea and basic spices.

LIVING ROOM
Our sofa is a great combination of firm and comfy and is large enough to accommodate 3 adults. The massive side chair invites you to curl up with a glass of wine or a good book.

BEDROOMS
Both bedrooms feature queen sized beds, both with super comfy green tea infused memory foam mattresses. There is so much natural light coming in from all the windows that you'll feel part of the surrounding nature instead of apart from it.

BATHROOM
The newly remodeled bathroom is spacious, featuring a modern and cozy aesthetic as well as clean and modern finishes.

DECK
The deck faces the backyard and a wooded area. It features a BBQ, a cozy seating area and a jacuzzi. This is the perfect spot to sip your coffee or a drink, enjoy your meals, take a dip in the jacuzzi after a long day of hiking or activities, read a book, relax or watch the deer that frequent the area. We have string lights around the deck railing to enhance the atmosphere and provide the right amount of lighting on those summer nights.

WIFI AND CELL SERVICE
Wi-Fi is fast and reliable although cell service may be a bit spotty depending on your provider. We do suggest activating wi-fi calling on your phone in order to be able to make and receive calls during your stay.

PRIVACY
Please note that we have neighbors and their houses are visible from the cottage.

AIR CONDITIONING
During the summer, we have A/C window units installed in the two bedrooms and another one in the dining area. We have found that the house stays fairly cool with these units when bedroom doors are left open to allow for cross ventilation. We can provide fans as additional ventilation.

Lovely Retreat
We loved our stay at this beautiful home! The property was nicely situated in a wooded neighborhood and the inside was very clean. We will definitely be returning. Also highly recommend a walk around the nearby lake and a visit to some local breweries!

Wonderful Property
We had an amazing stay at this well designed and cared for home. The owners give some great local tips and are very easy to communicate with. We enjoyed some great hikes in the area and it was nice coming back to the jacuzzi. The porch is a great place to start your day with coffee and the local deer. The rooms are comfortable and the kitchen had what we needed. We would definitely stay again.

Lovely stay
Super stylish and clean home with a great hot tub. Communication with the hosts was easy and clear, and they offered lots of local recs which were appreciated. I definitely recommend staying here with one small caveat: the property is on a small lot without much tree cover, so it felt less private when neighbors were out and about. Thanks again for the stay!

Short stay in cottage near Monticello
Everything is new and works well. Cottage was spotless and prepared well. Check in process, door locks, internet etc all perfect. Just a little too early in the season for leaves on trees, so didn't get the secluded feeling that we imagine would have been there just a couple of weeks later. Visited with our standard poodle - he loved it. Excellent dog park nearby.

This cottage is everything and more! My husband and I had a more than an incredible stay here. The views are magical. The cottage is immaculate and decorated so gorgeous. The vibes were perfect. We seriously cannot wait to be back. Thank you to the hosts for everything (especially the recommendations around town) every place we went was lovely. We couldn’t have asked for a better little getaway out of the city!

The house was perfect for our long weekend vacation. It was very clean and had all the essentials. The hot tub on the deck was an added bonus. We even got to feed a deer in the back yard.

Fantastic Minimoon in the Catskills
My wife and I spent 4 nights at the property and we fell in love immediately. The cabin is tucked into a nice community in the woods and everything inside the house was beautifully handcrafted wood and great appliances. The kitchen is spacious and everything is so warm and welcoming in terms of style. The hot tub is a fantastic addition as well as the wood furnace to keep yourselves snug. Beautiful property and completely seemless process with the owner. 10/10

perfect get away
This recently renovated home was perfect in many ways. Impeccably clean, very well appointed, roomy, comfortable wooded location easily accessible. Bedding and linens were high quality and extremely comfortable. Provided bottled water, snacks, coffee, and Keurig pods, plenty of cooking supplies and tableware. Hot tub was a clean and nice plus, even supplied beach towels! There was even some fire wood we used to make a small fire in the outdoor fire pit and enjoyed s'mores one night. Short drive took us to the Bethel Music and Arts Center original location of Woodstock '69 and we enjoyed an outdoor concert and toured the grounds as well as a great museum that had so much music history. We would love to return.

clean, modern cabin that matches description!
This property is exactly as advertised. It’s located in a sleepy (but not remote) enclave near a lake. You can walk around the neighborhood and there is minimal road traffic. The cabin was well appointed with the necessities (towels, bedding, kitchen stuff, basic toiletries, ect.). The beds are a quality, firm memory foam. I liked the keyless, self check-in/out. I loved the (clean!) hot tub. The property owner was responsive. I’d stay here again.

Cutest little cabin vibe
The listing doesn’t do this place justice. It was incredibly cute. Texted the host probably too late with a question about the property and they responded quickly with the answer. They had a well equipped kitchen if staying in and cooking is your ideal. It was absolutely lovely and I will be going back

Everything about this rental was excellent! The communication with Bilen was great. She answered all my messages quickly and was very accommodating. The rental was clean and had everything we needed for our long weekend there. Bilen provided all information to make check in and check out easy. She also provided recommendations for local businesses to try out which took the guess work out for us to decided where to go. We would definitely recommend this cottage to anyone.
