About the host
Hosted by Marcus Ostermiller
A Colorado native transplant to New York, I split my time between this serene mountainside cabin in Pond Eddy and the hustle and bustle of Hell's Kitchen, Manhattan. I'm a classical pianist, piano instructor, and I dabble in a bit of screenwriting.
My partner and I take great pride in this cabin, and nothing brings us more joy than sharing it with other like-minded people who seek the healing serenity of the outdoors.

Why they chose this property
I moved from Colorado to NYC in 2009. While I love the city, a deep part of me misses those majestic Rocky Mountains. This wonderful spot in the Catskills scratches that itch (just enough).
The homes on our dirt road sit on large plots of land (9 acres for us!) so we enjoy absolute privacy. The neighbors are lovely and welcoming.

What makes this property unique
You won't find a more secluded location. Surrounded by 9 wooded acres, I'd be surprised if you hear a single car drive by on our dirt road.
We affectionately refer to this cabin as the "Tree House." Perched on a mountainside with floor-to-ceiling windows and an elevated deck, it feels like you're always up in the trees.
The outdoor deck is large enough to practice a gymnastics floor routine (although it's high up, so maybe don't). In particular, the huge roof deck is perfect for sun-bathing and star-gazing.
If you're looking for peace and quiet, natural light, and immersion in a beautiful natural setting... this is your happy place.
