When you stay at this vacation home in Phoenicia, you'll be in the mountains, within a 15-minute walk of Catskill Mountains and Catskill State Park. .This vacation home is 13.3 mi (21.5 km) from Hunter Mountain and 13.4 mi (21.6 km) from Belleayre Mountain Ski Center.
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.
* 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.
