Good Weekend With Friends
Solid house for a weekend with friends. Rooms were spacious where all 15 of us were comfortable. It's a solid house but also definitely a rental home in terms of quality. Also very echo-y so hard for people to go to bed early. Driveway plowing was good enough, as long as your car is solid in snow you should be fine in the winter. Good value for price

Excellent house!
We had an excellent stay with almost no complaints. The gas grill outdoors was in rough shape and didn’t work great, but the kitchen is modern and is an easy alternative. Everything else was perfect! I highly recommend this property for a family and/or friends trip

A very nice stay with friends and family
We rented the house for a long weekend for our family and two other couples. The house was very comfortable and there were plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for everyone. The kitchen area is very nice and had plenty of room for everyone to gather around. The backyard also had plenty of room for relaxing and playing, even on a chilly November weekend. I will say that the pond had mostly dried up, so the water view was not much to look at. I'm not sure how often that happens. The host was also very responsive and helpful in getting us situated.

We had an exceptional experience! Pool was clean, heated. House boasted plenty of space and entertainment and has a great location. Plenty pf wood stocked for multiple fires by the water or house. Only thing I could say would be the grass was quite long, but did not impact our stay!

We had a nice time. The house is large and generally has all the amenities listed. There were some issues, however. The lake is overgrown with algae, so not good for swimming, but the pool was great. There were also some maintenance issues with the house.

Amazing stay!! Highly recommended!!
We had a really amazing time by this great house. The house is very up to date and clean!! The views were amazing and the lake was fantastic!!! Ben offered us a couple kayaks and fishing equipment to enjoy ourselves by the lake, which we greatly appreciated. There is also an amazing game room, and a very nice fire pit. The property is massive and is extremely private. He was always available and responded to any concerns right away. I highly recommend anyone thinking of staying here to book!!!

FANTASTIC family getaway
We chose to stay at this heavenly property instead of our group of 12 heading back to Woodloch - and this compound checked all the boxes. It was luxuriously gorgeous, clean, homey. The perfect place to enjoy a family breakfast in the morning, head out on the lake in the morning, swim in the pool in the afternoon followed by a whiffle ball game on the yard, then a sunset bbq and smores at night. True perfection!!

Beautiful resort like estate
Wonderful property, as pictured. Owner is pleasant and responsive. We stayed here with our two adult children, my daughter's fiance', and his 12 year old daughter. Plenty here for everyone in the family. Abundant wildlife, eagles nesting across the lake. Serene and relaxing, very nice dock area. On site launch.

About the host

Hosted by Ben Nahmani

Host profile image
A person who loves nature, peace and fun activities. I set out to find a lake front home that can fulfill my desires to escape the stressful city life and offer a complete disconnect my day to day life. Everybody needs a place to unwind and forget their worries by changing their environment and creating a nice healthy life balance. Staying active in nature with plenty of activities, watersports, and amenities was my dream growing up. Our family comes together and enjoys spending time with one another. We sit by the fire, roast marshmallows under the stars and enjoy each others company. This home allows me to live my dream and share it with other families who feel the same way!

Why they chose this property

This is everything I could have ever dreamed about in a property. After searching for many years I finally found the property that pretty much has it all. Large 5 Acres of private lake front land in the middle of the Catskills. Its a place for me and the family to unwind and relax. Breathe in fresh air and enjoy the peace and quiet from the busy city life. We managed to find a safe haven with a multitude of activities, fun, sports, and relaxation. The most beautiful part is the night sky and clear stars that are almost impossible to see in a city environment.

What makes this property unique

The house is a very large contemporary looking lake home in great condition. It sits on 5 acres of land with about 200 feet of Lake Frontage. It has a private boat launch and an in-ground heated pool. There are activities for all seasons of the year and lots of privacy! There are porches, balconies, decks, and open land to breath fresh air and enjoy the lake views and wildlife. Whether its a snowy winter ATV trip through the wood trails or a sunny summer Jet-ski water-sports day, everyone in the family comes together to create new bonds.

Inside the house offers all the activities you can imagine.
