About this property

Secluded Romantic Cottage

This is a cozy secluded cottage on the outskirts of Andes, tucked away on 13 acres, at the end of a dirt road, surrounded by hundreds of acres of NYC environmental protected land. Perfect location for a work-from-home alternative, High Speed Internet ( 100 Mbps / 15 Mbps ) .
The property is exceptionally quiet, with all the comforts you’ll need for a vacation get away. A hiking trail begins directly by the property and leads through miles of DEP forests and meadows with stunning views and a swim pond surrounded by environmental protected land is just a 10 minute walk away.
In the winter, an all wheel or 4 wheel drive is required.
We do not rent to hunters !
Belleayre ski centers is 35 minutes away, Plattenkill ski center about 40 minutes.
The only neighbors you can see is us, at the end of the road about 500 feet ( 2 football fields ) away from the cottage. Pets are welcome, please let us know what kind of dog you are bringing, we have a $ 25 pet fee (ad pet as guest upon booking check out )
There is one bedroom with a queen-size bed ( 10in Medium Gel Memory Foam) and a sleeping couch in the main room. Spacious porch. Wood burning stove and central heat and air condition.

Please be aware that there will be a possibility of a power outage at the cottage and throughout our immediate area of Delaware County during your stay. Unfortunately this happens frequently when power lines come down during high winds, heavy rain and from significant wet snowfall. On average, once the power is out it takes the electric company NYSEG about eight hours to restore power. However there have been times when the power has been out for more than 48 hours. If an outage does happen the cottage is prepared with a small back-up Ecoflow battery which will run the internet, charge phones and laptops, run the coffee maker, an induction cook plate, a small fridge and a few lights for about 48 hours. There is also a wood stove that will easily heat the cottage. Note that we will not be able to refund any booking costs if the power goes out durning your stay.

Very cute!

Very cute, small but cozy and comfortable. Stayed for 6 nights with my dog. Pretty remote area, extremely quiet and very pretty. Kitchen has everything you should need, the fireplace and record player are great. It was super snowy when we were there but still very warm. I will say in the winter not a great place for dog walks lol unless your dog is good off leash, which mine is not. But we managed ok. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and would stay again!!

Wonderful Place

Ended up having to cut our stay short due to power outage due to a storm, but this is such a great spot. We hope to come back again in the future. Clean, cozy, super comfortable bed, and overall one of the best cottage rentals I've ever found. Highly recommend. Plus the care that the host as put in to minimize discomfort in the event of a power outage is really appreciated!

We spent the weekend to celebrate our 18th wedding anniversary. The property was exactly what we needed. Was not only beautiful, but it was a perfect retreat to peace and quiet and to disconnect reconnected! The cottage was well stocked, very comfortable

The right amount of quiet

A great, quiet spot and an ideal place to get away as advertised. We stayed for a week and it proved to be an excellent spot to decompress. Beautiful surroundings and plenty (or nothing) to do in the area.

Peaceful retreat

Small, but perfectly formed! Lovely little cottage nestled in the woods, with great hikes nearby and very helpful and communicative hosts. If you are in the area highly recommend the baked goods (especially the morning buns) at Wilsons Bread, and also the goat milk yoghurts at Dirty Girl farm. Loved my stay here.

Off the beaten path and loving it!

Great little cabin. We spent 3 nights and a couple of rainy days here. We really enjoyed the solitude and quiet. Eclectic furnishings and an interesting selection of books! The kitchen had everything we needs and more to cook up a storm! The wood stove kept us warm and cozy in the evening. Out of the way but still close enough to Andes and Margaretville for some fun - checked out the Andes rail trail and had dinner to go from the Andes Hotel. We had a lovely time - thank you for your hospitality!

Tremendous Property in the Catskills

Our host Pia was a great communicator, both in terms of customer service and laying out the expectations of our stay. The interior is even homier than it looks in the pictures, with plenty of space to cook and enjoy recreational activities. Other than the long distance proximity to gas and food (it’s the Catskills, so what can we expect 😆) everything was as pristine as it gets. Would highly recommend to anyone coming up for a weekend getaway from the city!

Simply great

It’s an absolute gem. Pia is a wonderful host. There’s a pond with a valley view right on the property. Lots of trails in the area. My muscles appreciated hot tub after a day of hiking. Deers, hummingbirds, chipmunks, squirrels, butterflies…. nature at the doorsteps… very relaxing.

Amazing Andes

Our stay in Andes was perfect. It was a hybrid trip for us - we had to work some, but we had some time off just for enjoyment. The internet never wobbled despite two people working remotely, and working on a front porch watching hummingbirds use the feeders was pretty okay too. The property is gorgeous. It's a short walk to a great swim pond with excellent views. There are raspberry and blueberry bushes right next to the house overflowing with fruit. And taking a soak in the hot tub at dusk was a superb way to end the daylight hours. Andes and other towns close by were were both adorable and welcoming - had some good meals as well! Our hosts were very communicative and everything worked just as they said it would. We are "okay, saw that place - next" types of travelers usually, but we're very much looking forward to visiting again.

Relaxing Mountain Getaway

Had an amazing time at the cottage. The perfect place to disconnect and relax for a break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Situated on top of a mountain and with beautiful views all around there wasn't anything to complain about. The cottage was clean and had everything we needed for a long weekend. Having a hot tub for the cooler nights and mornings was also great. No cell service, so don't expect any calls or texts, unless it can be accomplished over the wifi connection. No TV as well, so was really a nice break from everyday life. If you're looking for peace and tranquility, this place is perfect.

Amazing property and owner for remote-ish getaway

Wonderful mountaintop cottage on a lovely piece of property with adjacent pond. Owner is very friendly and helpful! Perfect for a forest-breathing getaway -- situated on a remote-ish mountain road above the Pepacton Reservoir, the only noises you are likely to hear during your stay are birds and frogs. Still, towns like Margaretville, Andes, and Delhi are still 20-30 minutes away, and country stores for grocery stops are closer. Access to state land by foot for wandering. My wife and I have stayed a couple of times, and it is one of our favorite destinations -- the property is always immaculately clean, well-apportioned with everything you need (wood and kindling for woodstove were provided). Highly recommended!

Lovely NY getaway

My boyfriend and I visited Pia's adorable cabin in the Andes this fall and had such a lovely time. Although we missed the glorious leaf change by a couple weeks, the weather was perfect, and Pia made our experience even better. We loved the attention to detail in the amenities, such as the easy access firewood (highly recommend the outdoor fire pit and the wood stove!), the clean grill, and the presence of board games, puzzles, and even a badminton set. Additionally, there are some great walking trails around the property and a few small ponds for some great views. Thanks Pia & family!

Perfect getaway

This cottage is a secluded hideaway at the end of a mountain road. This is the place to go if you're wanting to getaway from the hustle and bustle of everyday life to simply immerse yourself in nature. The nearest town, Andes is about 15min away. Not too much there except a great coffe shop/cafe and a welcoming used bookstore. There are a couple of other nearby towns that we did not visit. The highlight of stay was seeing the milky way from the cottage yard!
