Cabin in the Heart of the Catskills

Serene Mountain Cabin Nestled in the Heart of the Northern Catskills

Welcome to Dry Brook Cabin, our family’s treasured retreat for fifty years!

Located in the heart of the Northern Catskills (2 ½ hours from NYC) off Route 28, Dry Brook Cabin is situated on 14 acres of private, wooded land with majestic mountain views.

Year-round activities abound - skiing, hiking, shopping, day spas, cultural attractions, kayaking and more. If cooking is your thing, we have a bountiful supermarket just minutes away in Margaretville and a lavish farmers’ market at the Round Barn on Route 30. There are also plenty of high-quality restaurants nearby.

This 4 bed / 2 bath log cabin comfortably sleeps 8, has an open layout, and plenty of natural light. Outdoor porches and Adirondack seating allow you to take in the peace, quiet, and warmth of the mountains while enjoying morning coffee, happy hour, or a home-cooked meal. There is also an outdoor fire pit, perfect for enjoying s’mores and stargazing.

We look forward to having you!


Important House & Safety Information

Guest Age Requirement
Groups must include at least one guest who is 25 years of age or older, at the owner’s discretion. Please ensure this requirement is met before booking.

Firewood
Firewood is not provided.

Please note that during certain conditions, local or state burn bans may restrict the use of outdoor fires (see “Burn Bans & Safety Notices” below).

Wildlife & Insects
Being in the woods means you may occasionally encounter wildlife or insects — it’s all part of the natural mountain experience.
We take proactive measures to prevent small critters like mice from entering the home.
If traps are used, they’re discreetly and safely placed.
Bugs and ticks are common outdoors. We recommend bug spray from spring through fall and performing tick checks after spending time outside.

Weather & Road Conditions
Mountain weather can be unpredictable — expect snow, ice, rain, mud, and sudden changes in conditions.
We do our best to keep paths and walkways clear, but nature sometimes has its own plans.
Rock salt is provided for use in winter; however, in extreme cold, ice may refreeze.
The driveway is plowed after approximately 3–5 inches of snow, depending on road conditions and the plow schedule.
All-Wheel Drive (AWD) vehicles are strongly recommended for travel in this region, particularly in winter.

Burn Bans & Safety Notices
Living in the mountains means that weather and fire risk can change quickly. Local or state authorities may issue burn bans, road closures, or state of emergency notices that can affect amenities such as outdoor fire pits, campfires, and cooking fires.
These orders must be followed when in effect.
Failure to comply may result in fines issued by local fire or police departments.
Please understand that these situations are beyond our control, and we cannot be held responsible for any restrictions that may occur. Your cooperation helps keep you, our community, and our mountain environment safe.
