About this property

Mountain Escape - Very private house on a 5-acre lot and yet close to everything

Situated on 5-acre lot with beautiful mountain and forest views, less than 8 mins from ski, minutes from fishing, swimming and hiking, 15 minutes to shopping, restaurants, coffee, and more.
Watch the wildlife from a large wrap-around deck or relax and read a book listening to the sounds of a mountain creek on the side of the house. Get the grill going or relax around large fire pit on cozy Adirondack chairs.
Enjoy the moment and leave your worries behind!
The house is on a private road that is a little bumpy. We have no problem traveling it up and down on our Hyundai Kona, but wanted to let you know in advance :)

The Space

Large private lot with mountain view and a beautiful, serene mountain creek on the side of the house. You can listen to it from the deck or from the second-floor bedroom when the window is open.
The large wrap around deck equipped with large umbrella, 2 tables, 4 chairs and 2 benches for outdoor dining and socializing. We also have a charcoal grill ready for you.
There is a firepit and Adirondack chairs behind the house with plenty of wood prepped for it.

The House

This is a 3 Bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms house. Guests can access the whole house except one closet in the hallway on the 2nd floor. We use it to store personal belongings.
There is a high speed WIFI, over 282 mbps that covers entire house and around. More than enough for streaming, video conference and more.
There are thermostats in every room and bathroom including living and dining rooms to insure your comfort. We also have a woodburning stove/fireplace with complimentary firewood for your enjoyment on a cold day.
In the summer we install window A/Cs in the bedrooms upstairs and in the living room. (You will probably only use it a few weeks a year. There is a huge tree shielding the roof from direct sun. It keeps the house cool even in the hottest months.

About the host

Hosted by Vitaly and Maria

Host profile image
We are a couple, that loves dogs, cooking, travel and beer. New hosts, but experienced guests, we've been on both sides of the isle, and that experience helps us to make sure, that everything in the house has you, our guest in mind.
Oh, and did we mention that we run a craft beer store in Brooklyn with our dog? And while we're running the store, he runs our lives :)

Why they chose this property

Nature, air, privacy. Close to skiing, hiking, restaurants, shopping, reservoirs, lakes and other seasonal attractions. Easy to get to, only 2 hours from NYC.

What makes this property unique

The amount of love we put in it. Its natural beauty will bring out desire to create, dream and imagine. It could be a writer paradise or a poetic hill. If Lev Tolstoy lived here, the "War and Peace" would be much thicker and his beard would be so long, that he'd be mistaken for Santa during Christmas.



Peaceful, private and clean, located in the woods and yet only minutes away from civilization, less than 8 minutes from the ski resort, minutes from world class fishing, amazing hiking trails.
