Waterfront Luxe: Kayak & SUP From Private Dock, Pong & Air Hockey, Near Hudson

Our spacious yet warm 5 bedroom home with gorgeous lake views, private dock and fire pit, is the perfect retreat for family and friends. Camp Summer Wind, located 20 minutes from Hudson and 10 minutes from Coxsackie, offers the very best of lake living combined with home entertainment and a gourmet chef's kitchen. Nestled within the rural beauty of the Catskill Mountains, and only a 10 minute drive to the quaint Hudson River villages of Athens and Coxsackie.

Impeccably cared for and well-appointed home offers 5 large bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, direct lake access, kayaking, paddle boarding, sunbathing, fire pit, hammock, wifi, media room and projection screen, gourmet kitchen, multiple decks and outdoor activities, 5 burner stainless steel grill, board games, ping pong and air hockey, darts, xbox one and two gas fireplaces.

While we named our home "Camp Summer Wind", there are so many activities in every season. Outside of everything lake living offers in the summer, the Catskill area boasts some of the best leaf peeping around. From the drive up the Taconic and views on the lake, to all the local hiking. Hikes range in difficulty and lead to Hudson Valley treasures and waterfalls. There are an abundance of farms within a short distance for apple and pumpkin picking in addition to fresh fruits and veggies. For our snow bunnies, we are 40/50 minutes from beautiful Hunter and Windham Mountains. In addition to world class skiing and snowboarding, there are zip-lines, tubing, and many other activities for all ages. Please inquire about all other activities as there are too many to list in a description :)

Our home is situated within Sleepy Hollow Lake, a private residential community located in beautiful Greene County along the Hudson River. We are located in a smaller cove off the main lake, perfect for swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding, fishing and floating. Guests will have access to our private on-property dock and kayaks and SUP boards, as well as all of the amenities the community has to offer: two outdoor pools, 5 min drive to community beach, tennis and paddle ball courts, basketball courts, playgrounds, driving range and small hikes.

This was a wonderful home & worked amazingly well for me & 3 of my friends. The house was very clean, well laid out and met our all our needs for the week. And starting each day with a morning kayak was heavenly. The location was also great – lots of cute, interesting villages to explore. And Nicole & Dave were very responsive and easy to work with!

The house is amazing! Clean, spacious, and incredibly comfortable. This was our second time staying here and we were already talking about next time. It has everything you could need and more. The location is great and there's so much to do at the house you don't need to leave. Very family friendly with lots of toys, plastic plates/cups, books, games. Great communication with the hosts and they provide lots of ideas for restaurants and things to do.

A fantastic homebase for Catskills adventures

Nicole & David have a beautiful property nestled away in a cozy neighborhood that was prefect for the weekend trip my friends & I took. We felt immediately at home upon arrival and the hosts made sure we had everything we needed, from an awesome curated list of places to check out nearby to making the most of our time at the house. I couldn't recommend their property enough, all of our first thoughts when leaving was how amazing it would be to come back in the summer.

excellent getaway for big families

We had a wonderful stay at the lake house with our family, including both adults and kids. The property was spacious, clean, and very well-maintained — perfect for a relaxing getaway. There was more than enough room for everyone to spread out and enjoy themselves, whether it was lounging indoors or spending time outside near the lake.Check-in and check-out were incredibly smooth, with clear instructions and no hassle at all. Communication with the host was efficient and friendly throughout our stay, which made everything even more enjoyable.We truly loved the place and would definitely come back. Highly recommend for families or groups looking for a peaceful and comfortable retreat!

Fantastic trip

This property was excellent. My family and I enjoyed the lake, pools, hiking trails, restaurants, drive-in movie, farmers market, and kayaking. The kitchen had all the necessary cookware to cook meals for our large group. We had 1 night of bad weather, but it was perfect for watching a movie in the basement. I also appreciated the way the owners left labels and instructions in the house. It may sound silly, but it was very helpful to know what the switches were for or note where we could find things. Overall, it was a fantastic property, community, and surrounding area!
