About this property

Entire Lakehouse Cabin by Mountain Creek & Warwick

House received a full update Spring 2023, brand new kitchen and bath. New furniture, including beds and sofa, which is now a sofa sleeper. Freshly painted, new floors, siding and stairs. Wall of windows facing the lake with a big welcoming deck. Special features throughout the house to make you feel comfy cozy.
Bedrooms are designed for winter and summer. The canoe bedroom features re-purposed wood and oars to make a headboard. This room is all about the lake, decor in red and white with a big comfy white down comforter on a brand new queen pillow top bed.
The second bedroom, features a brand new queen pillow top bed and is all about winter sports. Vintage skis as decor and a beautiful 1800's wardrobe for storing your luggage.
Living room has the original 1940's stone fireplace with a new insert with a queen size leather sofa.
Bathroom has stone shower with penny tiles with vintage wash stand and medicine cabinet. Brass sink will continue to give you the rustic feel you should have when staying at a cozy lakehouse.
Kitchen is brand new with honey stained cabinets and choice granite. Kitchen is stocked with dishwasher, stove with air fryer and all the essentials for cooking. There are also bar stools at the counter for more eating space and a dining area.
I have spent a lot of time and passion in making this house cozy so my renters can enjoy it, and so can I!
We added a fire pit with 4 Adirondack chairs. Firewood is supplied, but suggest you bring fire starters to help it get going.
You have full access to the house and deck.
This is a private home across the street from a private lake with very few homes around it. You will feel like its your own oasis when you are staying here.
Pets:
We are a pet friendly property and take pride in having no hair or remnants left after a previous guest with a pet has stayed at the house.
If you wish to stay with your dog, the price is $75.00 per dog and includes doggy bed and bowls. (please brush the pup before arrival)
Dogs are allowed everywhere leashed except on the public beach, this is a health dept regulation, not my regulation. We take our dogs on the kayaks, which is awesome, also you can walk them everywhere and there is a near by dog park (around 2 miles away) as well as excellent restaurant choices that are pet friendly within a 15 mins drive.
Be sure to pay “per dog” pet fee, maid spends a great amount of time prepping for next guest.
Bring your own bedding if you want your dog to sleep with you.
Dogs on our bedding is prohibited.

Spring/Summer: Also available in the warmer month are 4 kayaks ($75 for entire stay). Property is .25 of an acre, but the deck is my sanctuary as it faces the lake! BBQ is a $25 rental charge, for cleaning more than gas, as it comes to you ready to grill. You have full rights to beach, beach tables, dock and lake for the entire stay. Playground on beach for children. There's a roped off swimming area at the beach with a floating dock. There is parking for 2 cars.
Note: If you wish to include kayaks or bbq send me a request an I will send you a special rate to include.
Fishing is great, if you have a license. Please keep fish smells outside though. Extra fee if it smells after checkout. (nothing personal but really?) lol
Additional fee for guest over 4, $25 for 5th. Will consider 6th person for $50, but house is perfect for 4 to 5 people. (this accomodates additional wear on septic, complimentary tea and coffee as well extra linens)
This part of the state has so much to offer in all seasons:
Lake, Mtn Creek Water Park, Mtn Creek Bike Park, Trescape, Ziplining, wineries, farms, zoo, mine, hiking the Appalacian Trail, vintage shopping and so much more. Just over the border in NY the cute town of Warwick offers many shops and dining experiences nestled in the famous black soil farmland. New to the area, and just a short car ride away is Legoland. Take in a Drive-in movie at the Warwick Drive in. (welcome packet shows lots of dining and places to go)
In the winter, you are less than 5 miles from Mtn Creek ski & tubing resorts as well as a short car ride to the Mount Peter's Ski Resort.

Winter Weekend Getaway
We had a great stay at Cat's lake cabin! It was a perfect place to relax and enjoy some down time. We had a bit of surprise snow our first morning there, and it was nice just to watch it coming down with the view of the lake. And the cabin had everything we needed - we were able to grill and cook some nice meals, relax by the fire, and catch up on some movies we've been meaning to watch. Cat was super easy to communicate with for any questions that came up. Thanks again for everything - we'll be planning our return trip soon!

Perfect getaway weekend
We had a great getaway weekend for my wife’s birthday and our anniversary. Chez was amazing and brought in flowers I ordered and even was gracious enough to decorate the cabin with some balloons for my wife. The cabin is very clean and cozy we felt right at home. You’re steps away from the beach and lake in a small community. We loved the location. The cabin is about 15-20 minutes from a lot of different farms, markets and restaurants. We loved the Warwick winery and will definitely be going back. We had no complaints and really enjoyed our stay.

R & R Haven
Our last few vacations were great but very busy with lots to do & lots of driving. Although that was great we needed a vacation that was actually relaxing! This property was lovely, inviting and things to do or a view that would make you want to do nothing but enjoy it and the great deck looking out on the lake & beach just a 2 minute walk away. We really enjoyed our stay and Cat was very responsive, kind and easy to correspond with. Even our dog thought he was king of the castle by the time we left! Would definitely recommend :P

About the host

Host profile image
Local DJ and Karaoke DJ, also love anything to do with hiking and the great outdoors. Married to a musician, an amazing trumpet player with a long history of amazing performances. We both continue to do music and I also have a passion for designing, both interior, clothing and costume. I love to try new things, but I think I'm running out of things to try. After owning a beach condo in Florida, I sold it and bought this lake house. Super excited to live near it, so I can offer baskets, birthday decor etc for my renters.

Why they chose this property

I wanted to find a property near by after having a condo in Florida for 3 years.
We sold our condo and bought this adorable lake house in a quaint small lake community. I gutted the house, keeping its original natural charm. I had a blast updating it and adding my own special touches, like hand done and re-purposed items like both head boards.
There is small touches throughout the house that make you feel comfy cozy.

What makes this property unique

All you have to do is go outside and sit on that deck. Staring at the lake removes any and all stress of the day. I absolutely fell in love the with quaintness of the lake and the area. To be about an hour from NYC and yet so far away that you can leave all your worries behind and just relax and enjoy. I made sure to have all the necessities for a stay, and have even had renters in for Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Everything is redone inside the house and you will feel the warm hug that the house brings the minute you open the door.
I added special cross beams in the ceiling for that extra rustic charm and added lit garland that turns on from a flip of a switch.
Leave all your troubles behind and enjoy a piece of paradise.
The road to the lake is about .5 of a mile from the house, it is an unpaved road, but keeps people from speeding which is great! Speed limit is highly enforced.
Although I've been renting since July 2015 i just shared it with this site, .
I have over 177 5 star reviews on my other site, from all the happy renters.
Remember I am a short 20 minute ride away and I will be there for you if you need me for anything.
