Hi Ella, just want to say we totally enjoyed the CAbin, and thankyou for providing a very Clean, Cozy, Friendly environment. One of our many delights after BBQ,thanks for the equipment, was just staring up at the stars, a luxury we don't have in the City, the Scenery, the LAkes, the Mountainside jsut peaceful, relaxing and simply breathtaking. Very beautiful cabin just want to say thankyou for providing such a cozy Cabin and we will definitely be back.

I had made arrangements to take a BMW R1200GS motorcycle out for the weekend from the dealer in Manhattan, and chose the Catskills as the perfect destination to give the bike a run for the money. A quick Google search located the Catskill Bungalow which met all my requirements: quiet, cozy, inexpensive and a central location.

Dealing with Ella on line and on the phone couldn't have been easier or more pleasant. She provides detailed directions on how to reach the bungalow and her cell phone just in case!

The weekend weather cooperated for the most part; there is a heater in the cabin that warms things up quickly. When I arrived, Ella was very thorough in showing me the cabin and amenities. Unfortunately, I never got around to using the little grill...perhaps next time!

The shower gets hot quickly and provides more than sufficient water pressure. You're walking distance from the local grocery store, so if you feel like cooking, there's a big fridge, plenty of dishes, pots and pans and a decent-sized kitchen table to eat on. The small porch out front is perfect for kicking back, reading a book or taking a snooze. Had the weather been a bit more enticing, I would have tried out the swing under the tree.

The bunk beds will sleep two -- very cozily - on the bottom and one on the top bunk. Ideally, this would be for a family (parents with small child). Otherwise, things might be a bit tight. There's not really a space to "hang out" inside the cabin other than the kitchen table; outside, there's plenty of room in the yard.

All in all, I had a very enjoyable stay! More...

I wanted to get out of town with my wife for a few days for the Mother's Day weekend. It was a last minute thing and I wasn't sure if we would just stay in a motel. I surfed the internet and came across Ella's Bungalow. I called and she was immediately ready to get the bungalow ready and told us to start heading up. I arrived close to dusk and found the bungalow with no problem(Ella gave great directions) The Bungalow was perfect and my wife and I were able to relax for the 2 nights we stayed. We explored the area a little and spent some time by the river that is very close by. The area is quiet and the town is within walking distance. Thanks again for a nice weekend.

At first I was hesitant to stay here being that the price was so cheap. However I decided to go for it. When I got there I VERY impressed! The owner greeted us and she was very nice and professional. The place was nice and clean and best of all we had our much needed privacy. Coming from the busy NYC that was very important for us. The area was quiet and we had lots of things to do in the area. We went skiing, swimmed at the lake nearby, when hiking and saw some really nice views. Though it was snowy we were still able to appreciate natures wintery beauty. There were all sorts of other things we could have done but didnt stay long enough to visit all the nice restaurants and stuff. I wish we could have stayed longer :(. I definately will stay in this place the next time I go upstate.

If you like the mountains like we do and want your privacy AND dont want to spend a lot of money for your own kitchen ;), then this is the place I'd recommend without a doubt.

The only flaw I can realistically come up with is that the bathroom isnt really big enough for me and my boyfriend to use together. Other than that I would give this place a five star rating. More...

It was a great place to stay.
Not for more than 3 people.
the place is close to all good sports and fun.
the host is ultra cool and flexible in all aspects.
supermarket for groceries is next door.

Winter preferred.
May not come back as there is so many places to go and stay, however, is a must for a first time in the Hunter and Catskills. More...
