Birthday Ski Trip

Had a great weekend spending time at this wonderful cabin. Skied at Plattekill Mountain and adventures in Margaretville. Wood stove was great to hang around on a cold and snowy weekend.

Quiet and Peace

I went to George’s log cabin to write and spend some time alone. It was perfect and just as peaceful as I had hoped it would be. The bonus was a fabulous Black Cat that lived outside and when I went out on the porch to enjoy the scenery from that place, BC was there to keep me company. It was a delightful time in the country. Just what I needed.

Beautiful property! Secluded place to get away from the city vibe.

This is a wonderful place to stay. It is a beautiful log cabin located away from the city and lights. At night it is pitch dark making it the best place for star gazing. The house of cozy and beautiful. Using the wood stove was an amazing experience and kept the house warm and cozy. The host was really friendly and helpful with any questions we had through text and call whenever needed. There is a huge pond right in front on the house with plenty open space for the pet to roam around and play. I would definitely recommend staying here if you are looking for a secluded place to getaway from the city for the weekend or even longer.

Enjoy the Peace of Rustic Living

We enjoyed our stay at the peaceful and rustic Heart of Pine Cabin which has a fantastic pond and a cute little creek just a short hike away. The cabin sits in a quiet valley, and we enjoyed the sounds of the water and the neighbor’s farm animals throughout the day. It was great for a quiet family get away. Our host George lives there, so this cabin has all the delightful quirks of a lived-in home. He met us when we arrived to explain how to handle the compost and explain the light switches and little quirks. Black Cat (BC) is a most excellent coffee companion in the mornings and will demonstrate how to kick back & relax on the porch. A word of caution: first for those with dust mite allergies; this is a country home and a log cabin which means it holds dust more than a traditional modern construction house would, so plan on sweeping & dusting regularly during your stay and take your allergy meds. George was very generous with the cleaning supplies, and this made the morning & evening routines easy. We enjoyed our stay and hope to make this a yearly get away!

Wonderful stay

George was a phenomenal host. I enjoyed talking with George so much we became friends. The cabin was amazing, it showed that it was built with love and attention to detail. We really enjoyed fishing in the heart shaped pond and hanging out with BC the ultra affectionate outdoor cat. I really enjoyed the music themed décor and the fact that George is an accomplished musician. Also the recommended Heartbreak Hotel had a very friendly staff that made you feel welcome and the food there was terrific. Additionally the community pool at Mine Kill SP was an added bonus.

About the host

Hosted by George

My girlfriend and I are freelance artists. I am a musician and she is a writer. We often travel for work. The rental of the cabin is our supplemental income. We hope you enjoy it.

Why they chose this property

We built this cabin and every detail, down to the custom bookshelves, was handcrafted. The perfect distance away from NYC, and situated near enough to local villages for convenience items, but remote enough in the woods as to be ideal. Also the stream and swimming pond on our land are a big plus.

What makes this property unique

Privacy, the bucolic setting, the pond, living in nature, our land, the frogs at dusk in springtime, cross country skiing or hiking trails.. the list is too long...
