Answer the call! The Catskills are truly the gem of southern NY state’s vast forest systems. Although close to hustle and bustle, this area manages to maintain the allure of a real mountain getaway, yet so easily accessible- just a two-hour’s drive north from NYC / Northern NJ. Let’s find that yoga (union) together, at a large, clean, and well appointed mountain cabin in the town of Shandaken, nestled between the Shandaken Wild Forest and Slide Mountain Wilderness.

WHERE WE’RE STAYING

A serene 3,400 sq ft cabin which offers you a peaceful getaway experience in a private 2 acre lot of land with mountain views. 

I loved the space so much from last year’s retreat that I chose it again! Everything inside feels clean, updated, and refreshed. The house is arranged over two levels: the upper level has the main living room, bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms , dining and kitchen area that opens out to a patio. The lower level has a living room, 3 more bedrooms, and a full bathroom.

The cabin is the kind of place you want to stay when you feel like disconnecting and roughing it, in theory, but really would prefer to enjoy all your creature comforts in the end 😉

A few more cabin highlights:

  • AIRBNB enhanced cleaning for COVID-19 and beyond.
  • Very strong mesh wifi / indoor / outdoor, which allows you reliable internet access from every part of the house
  • Air conditioning / Wood Burning Stove Heaters
  • Indoor Fire Place / Outdoor Fire Pit
  • Washer/Dryer
  • TVs with smart tv – but we won’t need ’em 😉
  • Filtered Drinking Water

  • Your room accommodations with shared bath, all enhanced-clean sanitized linens and towels

I’m an avid traveller – I’ve lived abroad, and visited 45 countries, and planning the details are one of my favorite parts of a trip! I am so happy to offer these retreats for you, and to get to know you, a little better. xo – Soo
