Woodstock Mountainside Retreat

Perched on a secluded mountainside with panoramic views of the Catskills, the Woodstock Mountainside Retreat offers the ultimate mountain escape. This custom-built timber-frame post and beam home, completed in 2006, exudes rustic charm and modern comfort. Surrounded by pristine wilderness and located just minutes from town, the retreat provides guests with breathtaking scenery and a serene atmosphere. The spacious 2100-square-foot home boasts cathedral ceilings, an open floor plan, and ample natural light. Whether you're savoring the sunrise over the mountains from the screened porch or stargazing around the outdoor stone fire pit, this home immerses you in nature’s beauty.

Inside, you’ll find three well-appointed bedrooms accommodating up to eight guests. The master bedroom features a queen-sized bed, while the second bedroom offers another queen bed, and the third bedroom includes three twin beds. The great room also has a queen bed and a double futon, making it ideal for large groups or families. Two full bathrooms provide convenience, while a fully equipped kitchen with modern appliances allows for easy meal preparation. Hardwood floors, a cozy stone fireplace, and a wood stove create a warm and inviting ambiance, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring the outdoors.

The home is thoughtfully designed for comfort in every season. While the fresh mountain air naturally rejuvenates the space, a state-of-the-art Lifebreathe System continuously circulates clean outdoor air. For added comfort, top-of-the-line Mitsubishi air conditioning and heating units are installed in every bedroom and the great room. On cool evenings, gather around the stone patio’s fire pit to enjoy a meal cooked on the BBQ grill or unwind in the screened-in porch with a propane fire pit table.

Nature lovers will appreciate the abundance of wildlife around the property, including deer, wild turkeys, and even the occasional black bear. Children can enjoy flipping rocks to discover salamanders and newts, while adults can relax and soak in the peaceful mountain surroundings. With a huge deck, stone patio, and large porch, there are plenty of outdoor spaces to take in the fresh air and scenic views.

Bearsville and the surrounding Woodstock area offer a wealth of activities for all interests. Spend your days hiking the nearby trails of Catskill State Park, biking through scenic mountain routes, or exploring local art galleries and boutiques. The vibrant arts scene, historic sites, and charming eateries in Woodstock are just a short drive away. For outdoor enthusiasts, kayaking, swimming in crystal-clear streams, and wildlife watching are popular activities. In the evenings, enjoy live music at the renowned Bearsville Theater or relax under the starry sky back at the retreat.

Whether you’re seeking a peaceful getaway or an adventurous mountain retreat, the Woodstock Mountainside Retreat is the perfect destination for an unforgettable Catskills experience.
