Sauna, King Suite, Fire Pit | Foliage, 2 Hrs NYC

A six-person sauna on the property, a king suite with its own bathroom and private patio, and your own fire pit. After a day of hiking or adventures on the river, come relax your weary muscles in the sauna. The king suite, a queen bedroom, and a bunk room with a pack-and-play sleep eight in a modern black cabin on 6.7 wooded acres, about two hours from the city, ten minutes from the Delaware River and close to Bethel Woods and Narrowsburg.

Ash Cottage sleeps eight across three bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The open living room has a deep sectional, forest and stream views and a Roku smart TV, with games and a cocktail kit for the evenings.
The kitchen is fully equipped with full-size appliances, cookware and everyday essentials, plus a pour-over coffee setup: Fellow Opus burr grinder, gooseneck kettle, V60 and scale.
Bedroom 1: king bed, en suite full bathroom, and a private patio with forest views.
Bedroom 2: queen bed, forest-facing window.
Bedroom 3: two bunk beds, four twin sleeping spaces, and a pack-and-play.
Every bedroom has a new memory foam mattress, blackout curtains, and its own remote-controlled heat and air conditioning. There is a washer and dryer in the house.
The six-person sauna sits between Ash Cottage and Elm House. When only your house is booked it is yours; when the neighboring house is also booked it is shared, and our team will set up evening slots for each group before you arrive.

Check-in is self-guided. We send your door code before you arrive, and the path and driveway lights come on at dusk. Your parking is at the top of the driveway by your fire pit: keep going straight rather than turning left.
The whole cottage is yours: every room, the kitchen, the laundry, the private patio off the king suite, and your decks, fire pit and seating. The sauna between the houses is yours when Elm House is empty; when both houses are booked, we set up evening sauna slots for each group before you arrive. Elm House may host another group. Their outdoor spaces are theirs and yours are yours; the woods and the stream are shared. If you would like both houses and the sauna to yourselves, book our two-cabin listing

We respect our guests’ privacy, but we’re always available if you need anything. You’ll receive a detailed welcome guide with everything you need for a smooth stay, and we’re just a message away for any questions or support.

Narrowsburg`s Main Street has restaurants, a coffee shop and a theater; Callicoon has a cidery and a small movie house. Eldred Preserve, five minutes away, has a restaurant and fishing ponds. In winter, bald eagles gather along the river and reservoirs, and Ski Big Bear is about fifteen minutes away.
