Need a break from your busy life? Want a perfect spring, summer or fall vacation? We have the perfect getaway! Relaxation and fun awaits in this 5 star, stylish guest house located on the shores of White Lake, in the picturesque Catskill Mountains. You will enjoy beautiful lake views as well as access to the on-site lakefront beach, shared only with the hosts. White Lake is a clean, spring-fed lake, perfect for swimming, boating, paddle boarding and fishing. If you're lucky, catch a birds-eye view of the majestic eagles that soar above the lake!

Add some excitement to your stay with a visit to the museum, concert, festivals or events at the Bethel Woods Center for the Arts, home of the famed 1969 Woodstock Festival, which is just 3 miles away. Visit the area's quaint villages and breweries, take a refreshing mountain hike, or walk a half mile to the lakeside restaurants and shops in the village of Kauneonga Lake.

Most of all, though, enjoy your home away from home.

In addition, you are invited to bring your own water toys and leave them on the beach or under the cottage deck. Docks and summer equipment are available from mid-May to mid-October.

Most relaxing little vaca

We had an amazing time here. We’ve never been to white lake and decided to book this little trip and it was better than we imagined. Glenn and Kim made the experience so relaxing and fun. They went above and beyond and we couldn’t have been happier with our weekend stay. We’re absolutely going to be back!

Five + Stars!

Everything was wonderful and the hosts were amazing! The apartment is over the garage and is beautifully decorated and we had access to the gazebo, beach, dock, kayaks, and paddle boat. The hosts greeted us when we arrived and were available to share their knowledge of the area. We plan to return.

Great stay on White Lake

The room although not a house, it's on top of a garage is perfect for a stay in the Bethel area. Plenty of room and totally spotless. Glenn and Kim are super nice people. Would definitely stay again.

Perfect location for a relaxing vacation

We had a great time, visiting Woodstock grounds, swimming in the lake and exploring the area during the day and relaxing on the deck in the evenings. Very comfortable, clean and well appointed apartment. The hosts are very welcoming and flexible.

Wonderful Stay!!

My kids and I could not have enjoyed our stay any more! The house was recently renovated and impeccably clean. Everything we could have needed was there - all the comforts of home. And Glenn and Kim went above and beyond as hosts, even surprising us with some fireside s'mores! I simply can't say enough how wonderful our stay was!

Quiet Sweet Cottage

We loved how cozy Kim and Glenn’s cottage was. It’s a quiet neighborhood with lake views. Even in the dead of winter the lake has a very calming effect. We especially loved their super comfy sectional sofa. We’ll be back when we can take advantage of the lake.

Superb Property for Quality R & R!!

Just come back from a nine-day fabulous stay at Glen & Kim's property on White Lake. The two-bedroomed Guest House has great views of the Lake, is spotless and beautifully appointed with everything one might need for a relaxing vacation. The lakefront garden and mini beach are well maintained and we spent many an hour relaxing on the dock/deck watching the array of boats and swimmers on the truly picturesque lake. Our hosts were gracious and we look forward to returning for future visits - thank you Glenn & Kim!

Amazing hosts, super clean, and beautiful lake access.

The hosts were super accommodating. Our check in was seamless even with a last minute change of plans on our end. They are friendly, kind and super knowledgeable about the area. The cottage was super clean, well equipped and perfect! I would stay here again in a heartbeat. My only regret is that we had too many plans and didn’t get to enjoy a glass of wine on the dock, which will be the first order of business on our next stay here.

Absolutely fabulous!

We loved Glenn and Kim’s place in White Lake. Everything is new and clean and the location can’t be beat! The water in the lake is clean and a pleasure to swim in, as well as do any water sports. The town is small but restaurants are good. The guest house was perfect for two, but could easily hold two couples or a small family. Glenn and Kim were gracious hosts and easy to work with. If you are looking for a place in White Lake, this is the best!

Superb getaway!

After coming to White Lake for 31 years just 2 blocks away, it was great to come back. This time we had to look for a new place and luckily we found this waterfront rental, which was not an easy task. The hosts Glenn & Kim are great people to deal with. The location is perfect. The apartment is impeccable, very modern and tastefully decorated. We are really enjoyed our stay there! We will definitely come back! Vlad & Gail

Lovely lakeside property

Lovely 2bedroom property above a garage is extremely well kept and private. It has views of the lake from the open concept livingroom/ kitchen and from the master bedroom. Everything is updated and the kitchen is well stocked. We spent a lot of time sitting on the chairs on the dock taking in the lake view and chilling out.

Relaxing Weekend by the Lake

The apartment was very cozy, spacious, clean, and updated. They have two kayaks, a row boat, two paddle boats, and a paddle board for use. We caught many fishes right on the private dock. The lake was big and beautiful. The kitchen was well-stocked with all the necessary appliances. The owners were very helpful and welcoming.

What a GEM!

We were lucky enough to find this beautiful loft on the lake! We were there for a concert which was super close to the venue, as well as plenty of local restaurants and other fun things to do in the area. The lake is absolutely stunning! We were able to enjoy the beach, the dock, fishing, swimming, paddle boats and just relaxing. The bonfire at night with s’mores was the cherry on top. Look no further! This is our new favorite home away from home!

Beautiful Cottage on the Lake

My family and I had a great time making memories on the lake at this beautiful cottage. Everything was so perfect for our little getaway. The house was extremely clean, beautifully decorated, and had every amenity we could need. Glenn and Kim are the most wonderful hosts. They're so nice and make you feel so comfortable and at home. We saw the most amazing views from their waterfront. We especially loved the dock and could sit there forever. My family and I can't wait to go back next year and will dream about it all year long.

Hidden Gem on White Lake

The cottage was perfect and had everything we needed. This place was made for comfort. Everything was exactly as described and even better. It had its own convenient driveway and parking area right outside the entrance. The surrounding property is gorgeous and extremely well maintained. Having views and direct access to the lake really made this special for us. As far as the hosts Glen and Kim, you can’t find more hospitable, accommodating and friendly people. We’ll be back!!!

About the host

Hosted by Glenn and Kim

Host profile image
Hi, it's Glenn and Kim. We live in the main house on the property, so we will be your neighbors. This will be our fourth year renting our guest house, and we have met so many wonderful people. We are looking forward to this season and we would be so happy to get to know you, too! We want to assure you that the cottage is located far enough away from the main house and is positioned so that the entry is in the opposite direction. That and the fact that you have your own private driveway and front yard assures that your stay will be private. While we do everything we can to respect your privacy, we are available should you need anything or have any concerns during your stay. We look forward to welcoming you to the Jewel of White Lake!

What makes this property unique

Our well-maintained property is very special in that it provides you with a complete mini-resort experience. It is the only property on beautiful, clean, spring-fed White Lake that offers rental guests a sandy beach to swim or soak up the sun while also offering a gazebo and dock patio to relax and enjoy your stay. In addition, we provide non-motorized watercraft for use by our more adventurous guests!
