Lovely Vacation House

We had a lovely time - this house is exactly at listed if not nicer. Hot tub is on a raised deck with a lovely view of hunter mountain. Lovely modern kitchen, great space for family to spend time together. Lots of nice amenities included. House is right off the main road but in a forested and very quiet area - you would never guess how close you are! We had a fabulous time!

Nice view of the mt from the hottub

Nice home close to the entrance to the ski resort. We went in the summertime, so we enjoyed the hot tub and the grill. We also used the indoor fireplace at night time. Comfy beds and clean home.

Fantastic Winter Vacation Home

This beautiful winter vacation home is just as advertised. Perfect location within a few minutes of Hunter Mountain, with a gorgeous view of the mountain from the home. It is extremely well maintained. It is very clean with all the necessary amenities. Relaxing in the hot tub was a hit! We highly recommend this property if you're thinking of spending a few days or more near Hunter Mountain!

Beautiful Catskills Getaway

Natalia and Mike went out of their way to ensure a comfortable and fun getaway for our 3 families. The home is nicely renovated, clean, big enough to spread out, yet open concept so we can be together for dining, games or watching a movie. The hot tub was a bonus! It is a short 15-20 min drive to the Kaaterskill Falls, and plenty of hiking. Unfortunately the quaint little main town was pretty quiet and partly closed down, I imagine still due to Covid.

A nice place in the Catskills

We stayed here for a few days in June while we had some work done on our place in Manhattan. The property was clean, and we were grateful that the owners put in an A/C unit, because it was extremely hot when we were there (apparently this is not typical Catskills weather, but it may be more so in the future with climate change). The location is also great. There is a Tops grocery store within a 5 min drive and a bagel place and small market within walking distance, at the end of the road. The house is also very close to the ski hill; you have a great view of the mountain from the main window! Our only small issues with the place were that the beds in the main bedrooms are small for two adults, and you have to bring your own towels for the hot tub, which is a bit inconvenient. Overall, though, the house was very guest ready, easy to access, and made for a nice getaway!

Lovely Getaway

The property was perfect for a long weekend stay for my family of 5. The house was very clean and fully stocked. The view from the porch is lovely and calming, as is the neighborhood. The house is situated within a close drive to several other towns with a never-ending list of hiking spots nearby. Great mountain retreat!

About the host

Hosted by Natalia Fiore

Host profile image
I love meeting people and making new friends all over the world. Love photography, sports.. I am very much into my husband and a beautiful six year old daughter who live with me on Long island, NY. In my spare time you can find me riding a bike, swimming in the ocean or exploring new places with my friends. Born and raised in Ukraine; I adore Long Island, Catskills New York and enjoy travelling internationally. Next big trip when I get the chance: Thailand.
Main motto: Just do your best, and people may like it

Why they chose this property

Full-time Long Island residents, we discovered the Catskills Mountains during one of our road trips around the state and instantly fell in love with the beauty, freedom and inspiration it has brought us. Then we found The Mountaintop Lookout house, and had to have it. Today our carefully crafted home has become so much more than vacation or weekend getaway - this is the ultimate destination to reconnect with nature and your inner "zen". Our only hope is that you leave more inspired than when you came!

What makes this property unique

Our carefully crafted accommodations, local hospitality and an elevated mountain experience will help you unwind and unplug - and leave you feeling totally refreshed!
Nothing says vacation like mountain views from a hot tub. Nothing says holiday like having everyone you love in one home.
