About The Property

Get away from it all when you stay under the stars. This OFF GRID tiny cabin sits on 4 private acres of land surrounded by over 150 acres of public accessible state land. Featuring a loft with full sized bed, cozy seating and dining area with peaceful views of the surrounding forest. A kitchenette has a foot pump sink, one burner stove and is fully stocked for meals. In the cooler months a Jotul wood burning stove provides ambience and comfort. Now with INTERNET! Located just outside of the quaint hamlet of Bovina Center, this OFF GRID cabin is the perfect 4 season destination for ADVENTURE SEEKING NATURE LOVERS. In the winter, it's only 20 minutes to Plattekill Ski Center and 30 minutes to Belleayre. Hit the slopes during the day and come back to make soup and rustic bread, snuggle in front of the Jotul fireplace while it snows outside. Or spend the day playing in the snow, sledding down the hills, snowshoeing or XC skiing on the 4 acres or on the 150 acres of state land that borders the property. In the warmer months hike, mountain bike, visit farmers markets and nearby villages like Bovina Center, Roxbury, Margaretville, Andes, Delhi, Stamford and Hobart. Delaware County is amazing all year long and there is something special for every season. Whether you spend your time exploring the area or enjoying the peacefulness of the cabin, you will want to return year after year. Get ready for an off grid experience in a camping like environment with luxury touches. Solar up lights brighten the trees at night and lighten the path to the custom built OUTHOUSE. The cabin is tucked under the trees, surrounded by soft ferns and mossy carpet. Watch the stars fall from the hammocks in the evening or take the yoga mats onto the front porch for early morning meditation. This cabin was situated and designed to make the most of nature from every angle. Whether you're on a retreat with friends, or spending a romantic weekend in the countryside, this is the escape you've been needing for a long time! The front porch has a picnic table and comfortable folding Adirondack chairs. Just in front of the cabin a fire pit has a seating areas as well. Ready for S'mores or over the fire cooking! The propane BBQ grill is available year round and an additional single burner stove is inside as well. In the cabin, large windows at the front and side provide impressive views.

A large lawn area provides space for lawn games and lounging. The cabin itself is tucked under the trees providing a respite from the summer sun. Fully insulated to stay cooler in the summer and hold heat in the winter. Stone walls line the property, built ages ago to last.

Check the weather report for this area and plan your travel accordingly. Snow plows do not operate on secondary roads between 8PM and 5AM. The road to the house is a single lane dirt country road. It is plowed by the town of Bovina Center but will still have potholes so drive carefully. The driveway to the cabin is UPHILL. 4WD or AWD vehicles are necessary. If you are unfamiliar with driving in the snow, particularly uphill, search online for tips. Sites like AAA have good information. The driveway is plowed and shoveled to the entrance. The driveway is plowed every several inches of fallen snow but if it is snowing, there may still be snow on the driveway. A shovel is provided, please keep the walkway maintained during your stay. The house is in an area with no cell service. Turn on Wifi Calling from your cell phone settings to make and receive phone calls. For a smooth arrival, make sure to write down arrival instructions before traveling so you have the address, door code, WiFi and contact information. The full sized bed is in the loft. Guests must be able to climb a metal ladder. The cabin may not be suitable for young children and infants as the bed is up a ladder in the loft but the daybed is a narrow twin so a child can sleep on the main floor. The fireplace does not have a gate around it. There are no curtains, we love the view! If you are sensitive to sunlight in the morning we recommend a sleeping mask. WILDLIFE: The cabin is in the country where nature lives. Common animals in NYS include deer, fox, rabbit, coyote, bobcat, bear, skunks, porcupines, and raccoons. Visit the NYS DEC website to familiarize yourself with what animals live in NYS and how to avoid animal encounters. WINTER: October through April when snow and ice are likely, guests should have either winter tires or all season tires. Check the weather before arrival and plan your trip accordingly. If you are unfamiliar with driving in snow look for tips online at sources like AAA. The driveway is plowed, maintained and shoveled to the door. A shovel is provided for you so you can maintain a safe walkway during your stay. HUNTING SEASON - We do not host to groups that are visiting for hunting season. There is no hunting on the land and while we are near state land, we do not allow firearms on the property. This cabin is best for small families, groups of friends of couples looking to get away from it all and is not appointed for hunting parties. If we determine that your party is hunting there will be an immediate termination of the reservation with no refund of unused time.
