Your Catskills Escape

Whether you’re here for skiing, hiking, family time, or simply escaping the noise of everyday life, this chalet offers a rare blend of privacy, comfort, and natural beauty. Every corner reflects thoughtful care and warm hospitality.

Come breathe the mountain air, unwind in the hot tub, gather around the fire, and create memories that last.

Your retreat awaits.

Guest access
You will have private access to the entire house, including all of the outdoor areas. This excludes a few locked closets we use for storage.

The chalet is located on a private road that has a steep descent at the beginning - if there is a chance of snow you must have an all wheel drive vehicle with good tires. The road gets plowed when there is 4 inches or more. The road will usually be plowed after the storm is over and not during the storm. We recommend purchasing travel insurance for your trip.

The home is extremely family-friendly! In order to be baby-friendly, the chalet has most outlets covered (main floor), items such as a pack n play with mattress, a high chair, a Bumbo seat, and crib with crib mattress (please bring your own crib linens). The outside wrap-around deck also has a gate, so your child will be safe. There are also many older kid games, such as checkers, chess, Monopoly, a PS3 and games, and many more.

Other things to note
Do not under any circumstances leave food outside or on the grill overnight! After grilling you should always clean the grill, not only as a courtesy to the next guest grilling but more importantly to AVOID attracting BEARS.

Only the guests listed on the reservation are authorized to occupy the property. Ten guest maximum. Unfortunately, no additional day/night guests or visitors. Guest will be charged for any unauthorized person on the property at a minimum of $75.00 per occurrence/ night. Host has the ability to cancel the reservation and remove guests not following rules at any time. If guests are asked to leave for not following the rules deposits may be kept and stay deemed nonrefundable.

Fire wood: Wood is not provided. Please do not assume that there are bundles of leftover wood from previous guests for your use. You can collect fallen branches in the wood around the house or you can purchase bundles of firewood at the hardware store or grocery store in Prattsville.

a perfect New Years

I stayed at this gorgeous cabin with boyfriend and 4 other couples from college for New Years. It was a perfect stay! Check in was easy & the house was pristine. Nothing can beat the view of the mountains from the upstairs landing! The kitchen was perfect for making big dinners and they had everything we needed for our stay. The town was a quick 5 minute drive from the house with a great grocery store & fun little bar. It was an overall wonderful time and i would definitely stay again! An amazing time!

Great Stay!

If you're looking to get away in nature and not be bothered by people, planes, or cars, this is the place to go. An amazing home with many amenities, but most importantly for me was the isolation. A true cabin in the woods feel, but in a big home with modern day appliances and a gorgeous scenery. I highly recommend anybody stay at this property that's in the area. -Chris

Jusrt what we wanted!

We ABSOLUTELY LOVED the house. The location was great giving us lots of privacy and the decoration was perfect. We were very happy with the overall experience. It is always unnerving to rent someone else's place, but we couldn't recommend it enough. The views were of course phenomenal. We are already thinking about coming back soon!

Beautiful Mountain House

The nicest place my friends and I have ever stayed up at Windham. The house is beautiful and had everything you'd need. We made dinner on Saturday night, and everything we needed was there (new and clean pots and pans, slow cooker, FONDUE POT, spices, etc.). Beds and pillow are super comfortable. House very clean. This house makes us want to come up during the summer/fall for a weekend with an outside fire and lots of fun. Mark answered every question we had immediately. Everything was top notch!

Pros: The house is beautiful. The view was simply amazing. Everything was organized and labeled. The kitchen was stocked with essential items. There was helpful information in a binder about the house, local activities, restaurants, pubs, etc., in the area. The shower pressure and the hot water were great. Location is convenient. Quick ride to get to the mountain. The property manager was easily accessible via phone and/or text. He had a solution for all of our concerns and/or questions. Very nice guy. Cons: No washer, no dryer. The noise from the the pellet stove. The auger and the blower of the pellet stove are very loud. When the temperature changes, it makes a really loud "boom" sound as the metal expands and contracts.

Great Mountain View

Marc and Pam’s Chalet was a great place for our family to stay on our weekend ski trip to the Catskills. They were easy to work with and very accommodating. We arrived late in the evening, and they were able to remotely have the pellet stove warmed up for our arrival. The house was clean and comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked and the beds were comfortable. We were just a short drive from 3 different ski areas. Also checked out Patt’s Rock, and the quaint local diner. Only downside is that our trip was too short.
