Great snowy ski weekend!

7 of us stayed for Presidents Day ski weekend, and had a fantastic stay. The house is laid out really nicely, and the kitchen is loaded with just about any tool you can imagine. There are literally HUNDREDS of amazing decor pieces, we were seeing new ones even as we checked out!Alan came to meet us and make sure we were in and comfortable with the workings of the house and checked in a number of times to make sure we were taken care of during the 10 inches of snow and ice that fell.Fantastic weekend - come for the skiing, stay for the Blokus games!!!

Fall Colors in the Catskills

We had a lovely visit to Woodstock and the Catskills region. Convenient to downtown and other nearby attractions, the house was a wonderful and comfortable place to base. The house had everything we needed for a relaxing fall getaway.

Nice Place with Plenty of Space

We needed to get away and just chill. My wife and I enjoyed the clean comfort and interesting decor of the home. My older kids came up later and for 6 of us there were no issues of feeling cramped or on top of each other. Beds were nice, bathrooms nice and updated and the home was well stocked other than split firewood (We enjoy a good fire) np though, plenty in town. Nice place, will definitely be heading back, owner was great

A little paradise

This was one of the most beautiful places my family has stayed in for a summer vacation. The house is very large and filled with wonderful art, books and furniture. It is stocked with absolutely everything you could possibly need, and Alan is a lovely and excellent host. The grounds are beautiful and located close enough to town to walk there but also surrounded by woods so that you’re really in the country.

Wonderful family vacation

We just spent a wonderful week long vacation in this beautiful home. Perfectly situated in the surrounding woods yet just a short walk to town. Loved the well stocked kitchen and having all the paper products already provided was a real plus. Our host was very accommodating to the few special requests we made. Will definitely recommend a return visit

Perfect spot

Our group traveled from various cities and met in Woodstock to share a very festive three night Thanksgiving holiday. The house is super comfortable and the open plan made it lots of fun to prepare many dishes then sit down together and share a beautiful turkey dinner with all the trimmings. A bounty of thanks to Alan and Carol!

It lives up to the photos

While we were rather surprised by how modest this property looked when we first arrived, the house was beautiful, spacious and well equipped. We were 4 older couples and the setting was perfect for us. There were spaces for all of us to gather and also settings for smaller groups. Alan gave a FaceTime tour when we arrived, and that was sufficient to orient us to the property. We would definitely recommend this lovely home to our friends, and should we ever return to Woodstock we would want to stay here again.

Wonderful birthday week in a sweet spot

Located in a sweet spot, within minutes walk to favorite restaurants and shops in Woodstock. Yet the house feels like it's in the middle of the woods -- very peaceful. Can easily accommodate parties of 6-8 people comfortably. House has everything one might need to cook for and relax with family and friends. Great gas grill with enough space for everybody's hamburgers, steaks or fish. Short drives to our favorite trails. Incredibly responsive owner to boot. Can't wait to return.

About the host

Hosted by Alan Powitz

I vacationed in Woodstock and the Catskills for many years before finally deciding to put down roots and buy my home 12 years ago. . I have always loved the natural beauty of the area and was particularly drawn to Woodstock for it's cultural offerings, creative energy, wonderful music, diverse people, great food, excellent shops and galleries. In Summer months I enjoy hiking, biking and swimming in the local water holes. In Winter it is such a treat to walk in the snow and come home to sit by the fire. The Fall Leaves are beautiful although I am very happy to have someone else rake them :-) Halloween and Christmas are very special Holidays in Woodstock when the entire town gets together to celebrate. In short, you can do as much or as little as you want here and it is an easy, casual and beautiful place to relax. I am passionate about decorating and design and my career has been in Home Textiles for over 20 years..I take great pride in having a warm and comfortable home and I look forward to welcoming you as a guest... Hope to see you soon... Best, Carol

Why they chose this property

I fell in love with the natural beauty and privacy of the setting. The open floor plan with cathedral ceilings and skylights provide a spacious and relaxed feeling.

What makes this property unique

Huge Deck for entertaining, ample parking, beautiful gardens. Spacious oversized bedrooms - the Queen Studio is the size of a large studio apartment and a second bedroom, the King Suite, has 14' ceilings, a panoramic view of the woods and was once a yoga studio.
