About this property

1920s Phoenicia Bungalow w/ Vintage Furnishings, Sauna, Fireplace, & Fenced Yard

Nestled in the serene town of Phoenicia, our “granny‑chic” 100‑year‑old bungalow blends vintage charm with modern comfort. It’s designed to feel like a living story—exposed wood beams, antique furnishings, and a warm, lived-in aesthetic that invites relaxation.

**Stand‑out Features**

* Cozy fireplace: A river‑stone, wood-burning hearth—perfect for curling up with a book or enjoying hot cocoa on chilly evenings.

* Private indoor sauna: Unwind after a day exploring the nearby Tan Bark Trail—and soak away the stress in your own personal sauna.

* Dog-friendly property (pet fee applies) with fully fenced backyard.

**Comfort & Convenience**

* Fully equipped kitchen: Includes everything you need from cookware to utensils—ideal for enjoying home-cooked meals or local ingredients.

* Adjustable beds: Fully adjustable beds to match your personal comfort preferences—because a good night’s sleep matters.

**Thoughtful Touches**

* Fast Wi‑Fi (200+ mbps), plush linens, and essential amenities ensure a seamless, cozy retreat experience.

*Nostalgic board games for a screen-free night of fun.

* A carefully curated **guidebook** featuring our favorite nearby restaurants, scenic walks, and outdoor adventures.

In short, our bungalow mixes nostalgic heritage with contemporary comforts—where you can warm by the fire, play with your dogs in our backyard, detox in the sauna, and recharge in a space you’ll immediately feel “at home” in.

Guests fall in love with Phoenicia’s perfect blend of mountain serenity and small-town charm. Nestled between three Catskills ridges and bordered by two creeks, our bungalow puts you steps away from nature, local flavor, and fascinating history.

**🏞 Outdoor Adventures at Your Doorstep**

* Just a **5-minute walk to Main Street** and the **Tan Bark Trail**, with sweeping Catskills views.

* **Stony Clove Creek** is just steps from the bungalow—with a **local swimming hole** perfect for a refreshing dip on warm days.

* **Esopus Creek** offers tubing, trout fishing, and peaceful riverside lounging.

* A short drive brings you to **Belleayre and Hunter Mountains** for skiing, snowboarding, or high-elevation hikes.

**Local Charm & Legendary Eateries**

* **Phoenicia Diner**, just down the road, is a must-visit—and fans of the TV series *Severance* will recognize it as the show’s diner! Expect elevated comfort food, retro interiors, and Catskills views.

* **Brio’s**, a Main Street institution, has been serving locals and legends for decades—**Babe Ruth himself dined here**. Don’t miss the wood-fired pizza and cozy, no-frills vibe.

* Plus: charming cafés, quirky general stores, artisan shops, and a weekend farmer’s market—all within walking distance.

** Cultural & Historic Highlights**

* Explore the **Empire State Railway Museum**, housed in a vintage train station.

* Try **Rail Explorers**: a unique rail-bike experience through the scenic forested tracks around town.

* Discover small galleries, music events, and the enduring spirit of a creative Catskills community.

And always keep an eye out—Phoenicia’s got that magic where history, nature, and pop culture quietly collide.

Guests love that Phoenicia feels like a hidden gem: peaceful, walkable, and full of stories—just like our home.

Lovely boho bungalow

Took a short weekend away with my partner and doggo. Danielle's bungalow was a perfect getaway for us. The place is comfortable with unique touches such as the sauna and the beautiful artwork throughout the house. The backyard was fully fenced, so my dog had a blast running around outside. Danielle was very easy to reach and promptly responded to my question about the sauna. I highly recommend as a place to unwind while having access to the restaurants and towns nearby.

first visit to the Catskills!

The property was truly lovely and very completely outfitted. I was traveling with my mother and two nephews and unfortuntely we arrived during the dreadful heatwave that hit the northeast. The property was exactly as pictured and we had almost enough fans to cool the place down. The ceiling fans certainly helped but an ac unit on the first floor would have helped. No one could have known the heat would be this severe but a second ac unit would have helped. The het broke on day 3 of our four day stay so that helped. I loved the house -- exactly as pictured.

Dog friendly great location

This lovely home is right in Phoenicia, walkable to Brio's, Bettina, and the market. The fenced in yard was perfect for our dog. The bedroom closet was amazing--I've never in my life completely unpacked in a hotel or rental. But I did it here and it was perfect! Bathroom adorable. We didn't use the upstairs. AC is a giant unit up there--we didn't need it because the first floor was very easy to cool with the ceiling fans. We loved the porch in the morning and the backyard in the afternoon. The property manager was very responsive and the neighborhood is great for dog walks of any length and challenge. Our only minor quibble was that we felt there was an excess of furniture and decor in the living room and dining room that made them feel a bit dark and crowded. But that's mostly a matter of taste! We would definitely stay here again!

Great stay while skiing at Belleayre

Cozy stay. House was inviting. All essentials provided. Stayed with friends and enjoyed a weekend of skiing at Belleayre. While we could have made a dinner, we opted for the Phoenicia dinner, which did not disappoint. Fast and fantastic! Definitely recommend.

Last minute getaway

We booked the bungalow last minute after our original plans over the New Year's break fell through. It was a very quiet time of year to visit the Catskills, but we were warm and cozy in this lovely, well appointed home. Kitchen was well-stocked and clean. We loved the sauna! Our five-year old slept upstairs. For apartment-dwelling, city folk we are not used to multi-floor living: its worth noting the there are no doors or barricades between the two upstairs sleeping areas and the top of the stairs. If we stay there again I would bring a secure child gate, just to ward-off any middle of the night incidents. (and ease my neurosis!)

Great location, bad everything else

My family ultimately didn't stay at this property after arriving to find that there was no hot water and very poorly working heat. The beds also seemed not to have been made in advance of our arrival and had dirty sheets, which is partly how we realized there was no hot water—we couldn't do laundry in the very old washing machine. There was also evidence of mice in the kitchen which had not been cleaned up. While the heat was on in the downstairs of the house, there didn't appear to be any method of heating the upstairs of the home. The owner promptly refunded our payment after we expressed our concerns to the property manager, who offered to try to find a repairman for the hot water situation. We ultimately decided to move on as it was the Sunday before Christmas and we weren't feeling good about the odds of someone being able to fix the hot water in a timely manner (and also were still worried about the heat). While we're grateful we received a refund, I would be wary of booking of this house unless serious upgrades are made.

Great location in Phoenicia

Our family had a lovely stay in Phoenicia at the "cozy bungalow." It was very pleasant to walk to town and the bungalow itself was indeed cozy. Enjoyed the sauna probably even more than expected after a long (cold, rainy) hike. Host provided excellent communication for any concerns.

About the host

Hosted by Danielle Noonan

Host profile image
Welcome to our cozy Phoenicia retreat! We're so glad you're here. Hosting is truly a joy for us—we love creating a warm, relaxing space where guests can unwind, reconnect with nature, and feel completely at home.

We’re especially passionate about vintage design and mountain living, and we’ve poured that love into every corner of the bungalow—from the antique details to the crackling wood fireplace to the private sauna that’s perfect after a long hike.

Why they chose this property

We chose this neighborhood because it feels like a hidden pocket of magic in the Catskills. Tucked between two creeks and surrounded by mountains, it’s peaceful yet walkable—where you can hear birdsong in the morning and stroll to great food and local shops by afternoon. We love the mix of nature and nostalgia here: swimming holes, hiking trails, a vintage train station, and neighbors who wave hello. It’s a place that feels both timeless and warmly alive.

What makes this property unique

What makes our property unique is its soul. This isn’t just a rental—it’s a lovingly restored 100-year-old bungalow with stories in its walls. From the antique clawfoot tub to the private indoor sauna and wood-burning fireplace, every detail was chosen to create warmth, character, and comfort. The fully fenced backyard makes it perfect for pets, and the decor blends vintage charm with lived-in ease. It’s not just a stay—it’s an experience.
