The space
From the moment you turn into the driveway, the scenery will captivate you.

Sit back on the huge deck with a cup of coffee and spot eagles soaring through the valley. Cozy and comfortable in all seasons with a wood stove, wood-fired hot tub, and A/C. Tons of local activities ranging from hidden waterfall hikes to quaint New York river towns including Livingston Manor, Hancock, Roscoe, and Narrowsburg.
*Private River Access*
A short staircase leads to a private, grassy launch point. Swim in crystal clear water, take a float and land right back at the property, or arrange a trip with local outfitters. This specific bend of the river is a highly productive fishing location—cast or wade directly from the bank for wild trout, shad, walleye, and muskie.
*Acres of Woods & Wildlife*
The cabin is surrounded by mature trees and acres of native wildflower fields. Spend evenings at the fire pit under jet black skies for perfect stargazing.

An open floor plan connects the living and dining areas to the expansive deck via an oversized sliding glass door. 50 additional windows frame long-range mountain and water views throughout the house. The kitchen is fully equipped with cookware, coffee pods, and essential seasonings.
