Country Home with Private Swimming Pond and Beautiful Mountain Views

Welcome to Fox Ridge, a four season vacation rental in Margaretville, NY. Located on top of the mountain at 2100 feet overlooking the valley with spectacular views of the private pond and the Catskill Forest Preserve on 9 very private acres. Only 2½ hours from New York City, Fox Ridge is an inviting escape for you, your family, and friends.

Come and enjoy our spacious, beautifully furnished contemporary home. Take in the sweeping views of the mountains and large swimming pond from the newly expanded deck or from inside the glass enclosed great room with soaring ceiling and stone fireplace. Enjoy the warmth of a roaring fire on a snowy winter night or on a cool summer evening. Come in the fall and take in the brilliant color display across the valley or rejuvenate in the spring with new life around you.

Eat in, cook on the grill, or try one of the many excellent area restaurants. Spend an evening at home playing pool or watching a movie on one of the flat screen TVs. Relax in the hot tub under the stars or roast marshmallows on the fire pit. Swim or kayak in the pond, dive in from the dock or go hiking on one of the easily accessible trails. Finish up the day in our new outdoor shower.

Try your hand at flyfishing on a clean mountain stream or golf at one of the nearby courses. Belleayre Mountain offers excellent skiing for the entire family in the winter and outdoor concerts in the summer. All of these activities and more are within minutes of the house.

The 3 level house has 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths. The bedrooms are furnished with extra comfy beds and fine linens. There are two bedrooms with queen beds and one with twins, comfortably accommodating 6 people. Come with your family and friends or enjoy a romantic getaway for 2.

The house is beautiful and spacious and the grounds are lovely. We enjoyed making a fire in the fireplace as well as in the fire pit outside. Neil and Erin were great at communicating and responsive to messages. The house was well stocked with everything you could need. I hope we have an opportunity to return and highly recommend.

A mixed bag, but the beauty of the grounds and home makes it a for sure recommend. Not the cleanest, but not the worst. No towels in downstairs bath (found some in dryer before seeing in upstairs bath). Had to clean a dirty grill, and there was unbagged trash, recycling, and gunk in outside bins. Should have a nearby property manager to check clean and handle situations like the storm door that the landscapers shattered into a million pieces so vacationers don't need to clean up. As I texted the owner about the glass, I also made him aware that not needed, but no "welcome gift" as stated. He very kindly called in a gift card which we used to buy delicious local coffee. Only a few (but cute) shops open weekdays. Our dog (and we) really enjoyed the wrap around fenced deck with beautiful view. If you don't get creeped out by swimming in a dark pond, you might do more than the quick, refreshing dip that I did (if jumping, go off end of dock, not by ladder). If you hose out the kayaks (bugs), you will do more than the quick lap around that I did. If you are adept at making a fire (or happen to locate the firestarters), you will be able to enjoy the firepit, unlike us. But the next (rainy) day I spotted the firestarters in a basket and made a great fire in the beautiful indoor fireplace. You need to turn up the hot tub temp well before getting in or it will be tepid like my first time. Next day was fabulous. Didn't use the pool table or gas fireplace in basement, but nice options.

The little added touches were very heartwarming. We were so comfortable during our stay we felt almost no need to leave the property and greatly enjoyed the hot tub, swimming in the pond, and playing games. The proximity to town was convenient but still offered plenty of secluded peace. Overall we loved our week at the house!

Beautiful place to stay

My family spent two August weeks staying at Neil's property. Just days beforehand, a huge storm hit the area, causing some disruption. Neil proactively communicated with me while everything got fixed. The house is very nice but the pond and surrounding area are the reasons to stay here. The property's pond is beautiful, serene, and wonderful to swim in. Every night we watched the fog roll into the valley below and every morning we watched it burn off. We hiked, swam, and kayaked and ate at many great restaurants. Definitely recommend.

A perfectly peaceful vacation!

We just spent 6 nights at this beautiful Catskills property. The views were magnificent and we loved hanging out on the deck just listening to the crickets, frogs and birds and to see the occasional deer pass by. We spent time everyday on the pond in the provided kayaks which was such a treat and one of our favorite things to do. The property is so private and peaceful- it was exactly what we wanted. The house itself was beautifully furnished and had everything we needed. We loved playing pool with our kids and loved a dip in the hot tub. Thank you Neil and Erin for sharing your stunning home with us and allowing us to make wonderful family memories! You are excellent hosts and we would love to return in the future!

Lovely country retreat

We had a terrific three night stay. We enjoyed the fully-stocked kitchen, large deck, grill, gorgeous field, and secluded location. We swam in the pond and soaked in the hot tub and enjoyed the pool table. Owner communicated in advance about furniture being removed due to a flood in the basement, which meant we couldn't enjoy the basement lounge area, but we were still able to use the pool table which was important for my tween son! The pond was wonderful for swimming & sunning and our dog was in heaven, running free through the field, swimming with us, and sunning on the dock. Beds were comfortable and everything clean & convenient! Nice bathroom towels, and plenty of outdoor towels provided, too. We couldn't get outdoor shower working correctly but that didn't detract from our enjoyment of the property much at all. Gorgeous view of the mountain range from the deck.

We had a great stay. We enjoyed the hot tub & fire pit. Pearl, my daughter's English Cocker Spaniel, loved swimming in the pond. Having the locking gates on the deck were great & the dog loved going in & out of the house/ deck without a leash. Margaretville itself was very small, but we had several meals at fabulous restaurants there. We did a day trip to Woodstock. I would recommend that to others considering the property. It's about a 45 minute drive from Margaretville.
