Beautiful Private Chalet near Hunter & Woodstock | Ski Chalet in Palenville

Secluded 5-acre property in Palenville, NY, beautifully renovated for all seasons. Enjoy peaceful privacy with a huge yard, yet close to everything - 20 min to Hunter Mountain, easy access to Woodstock, Hudson & Saugerties. Hike, ski, fish, and explore farm-to-table dining. End your days stargazing and making s'mores by the fire pit. The perfect balance of mountain serenity and adventure!
Our house is tucked away behind a thick line of trees, completely separated away from the neighbors on its own 5 acre lot. As you drive down our driveway, you'll enter our football field size front yard with access to the woods behind the house and to the right behind the fire pit area. There is plenty of space to walk around, sled, or hike, so feel free to explore. If you see a neighbor's house, that's when you know you've reached the end of the property, but not until then :)
Front porch and Main Entrance
The main entrance is up 2 wide steps that bring you onto the covered porch. This is where you can relax on any of the cushioned chairs or sit around the table to gaze at the stars. In the winter, we move our gas grill into this space but if you let us know in advance of your stay, we can also move it for you onto the deck in the backyard.
Living Rooms
There are 2 living rooms in our house. As you enter through the main entrance and into the main hall, the main living room is behind the grand staircase. You can walk to either side of the stair case to enter the space. As you walk to the right, you'll pass a powder room that's located at the base of the stair case, a laundry room with spacious sitting / hanger rack for your clothes and shoes and washer / dryer units, and access door into the 2 car garage. As you enter the living room, start up the wood burning fireplace and make the house feel super cozy. Lounge on the sofas and gaze out the picture windows to enjoy the view of lush foliage, switch on the 65 inch Fire TV (where you can easily sign into your Netflix, Hulu, or other streaming account) for movie night or the big game, or enjoy one of our board games with your group, or walk out the sliding doors onto the deck in the backyard. The living room is in an open layout with the kitchen and dining room so there's plenty of seating for your group whether you're cooking or sitting behind the island for any occasion.
The second living room is to the left of the main entrance, down a few steps, and through 2 glass doors. This is also our music room with two pianos - a baby grand and an electric up right, a decorative palette stove, and two brand new couches with side and coffee table. This space also has views of the front lawn through its glass sliding doors, access to a full bathroom, and one of the guest bedrooms with a full size bed.
The Kitchen
Our Kitchen is equipped with all new appliances including cooking utensils, pots and pans, general spices, and basically all the tools you need to make morning pancakes, spaghetti Bolognese dinner, and everything in between. (Groceries not provided.) For morning coffee, there is Keurig coffee machine which we stocked with a few pods for your convenience to start you off, a tea kettle if you're a tea drinker, a toaster that fits bread slices or bagels, and plenty of cabinets and draws for all that you wish to store in the kitchen during your stay. You will find all the dish ware, serve ware, and drink ware you need for such a large group to dine, but don’t worry, we have you covered with a dishwasher, too.
Sleeping Arrangements
Our house has 5 traditional bedrooms which all together can sleep up to 10 guests. A good nigh rest is super important to us so all bedrooms have brand new mattresses and pillows. Every room has at least one extra blanket and plenty of towels for each of our guests throughout your stay.
As you walk up the grand stair case, the spacious master bedroom has a King size bed with side tables on each side, its own mini bar and wine fridge, 6 windows for you to gaze around the property line and into the woods, and blackout shades. This room also has a walking closet, a full bathroom with 2 rain showers and double sinks.
Passing the master bedroom and walking to the right would lead you to the 2nd bedroom with its own King size bed, a reading nook, and access to the office. The office has a desk, a monitor and a printer in case you need to have a conference or finish up some homework during your stay :). There is also a wall space heater for your convenience.
Walking to the left of the master bedroom you'll enter a small hallway that has access to 2 more bedrooms. Bedroom number 3 has a King size bed, it's own closet with a bifold door, and is overlooking the front lawn through its 3 bay windows. Similar to other room in our house we provided an additional space heater for just in case.
Bedroom number 4 is across the way from Bedroom 3 and has a queen size bed, its own closet, and a space heater. Its window leads to the back of the house but you're welcome to pulldown its blackout shade for a restful night.
Bedroom number 5 is just down the steps and to the right and has a Full size bed, its own closet, and baseboard heating with its own thermostat.
Bathrooms
There are 2.5 bathrooms in our house. The half bath or our powder room is right next to the grand staircase near the main entrance. There is a full bathroom near our music room with the 2 pianos and next to Bedroom #5 on the first floor, and an additional full bathroom in the Master Bedroom space.
The garage and parking space
Our house has a 2 car garage, which is very useful for snowy weather, and you are welcome to use. There is is additional parking along the drive way if needed, please do not park on the grass. The garage also has special racks for skis and snowboards - they're blue easy lock systems that are located by the garage doors and are very easy to use. You're welcome to borrow our sleds and other outside toys, but please store them away in their spots after using them or leave them on the garage floor and our cleaning crew will sort them out after your stay. Note that we are not responsible for personal items left in your car or in the garage. We'll do our best to find them before the next guests arrive, but we can't be held accountable for things lost or left at the house and on its property.
Outdoors
With so much space outside, there's plenty to do in the front lawn or on the deck in the backyard. There is a dining table on the deck - you can find the chairs in the garage - we like to store them away and are happy to move them (weather permitting) ahead of your stay. If you're in BBQ-ing mode, you'll find our grill in the backyard - we like to move the BBQ onto the covered front porch for the winter, but we can move it for you to the backyard if you can tell us ahead of your stay. An extra gas tank is in the garage in case the one there runs low and needs to be swapped out. Across from the garage and over the driveway you will find our favorite chill spot with Adirondack chairs and a fire pit. The fire pit is surrounded with anchored light poles with lights attached to their tops. We've provided a battery pack that should last ~8 hrs of charge - there is also a charging cable that we'll provide for recharging the battery pack so you can do it all over again the next day. We've also provided a case of kindle wood nearby as well as a fire extinguisher for an emergency. Please keep the kindle wood bin covered if you don't mind.
Guest access
Guests can enjoy the privacy of the entire house, backyard deck, the fire pit, and walk around the property as you wish.
