Lakefront Luxe: Private Dock, Game Rm, Near Hudson & Ski/Tubing

THE PERFECT SPOT FOR A GROUP SKI/TUBING TRIP TO HUNTER OR WINDHAM MOUNTAINS, WITHOUT THE CRAZY PRICE!! A SCENIC 45/55 MIN TRIP TO EITHER MOUNTAIN. Our spacious yet warm 5 bedroom home with gorgeous lake views, private dock and fire pit, is the perfect retreat for family and friends. Camp Summer Wind, located 20 minutes from Hudson and 10 minutes from Coxsackie, offers the very best of lake living combined with home entertainment and a gourmet chef's kitchen.

While we named our home "Camp Summer Wind", there are so many activities in every season. Outside of everything lake living offers in the summer, the Catskill area boasts some of the best leaf peeping around. From the drive up the Taconic and views on the lake, to all the local hiking. Hikes range in difficulty and lead to Hudson Valley treasures and waterfalls. There are an abundance of farms within a short distance for apple and pumpkin picking in addition to fresh fruits and veggies. For our snow bunnies, we are 40/50 minutes from beautiful Hunter and Windham Mountains. In addition to world class skiing and snowboarding, there are zip-lines, tubing, and many other activities for all ages. Please inquire about all other activities as there are too many to list in a description :)

Our home is situated within Sleepy Hollow Lake, a private residential community located in beautiful Greene County along the Hudson River. We are located in a smaller cove off the main lake, perfect for swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding, fishing and floating.

Wonderful family gathering spot
This lovely lake house felt more updated and larger than the pictures suggest for our Fall trip! There was plenty of space for our 8-person, multi-generational family gathering, and the layout was very conducive to both together-time and breaks. We enjoyed the large dining room table for a big family dinner cooked in the high-end kitchen, after which we retired to the great room, which was more spacious than expected, with a perfect lake view. The ground floor bedroom was great for some elderly family members, and the rest of the bedrooms accommodated all preferences, easily (and were accurately described in the listing). All rooms in the house felt recently updated and modern. The hosts were very responsive and kind. The location is close enough to everything we wanted to do, with at least one adorable farm shop within a 10-minute drive. We braved the colder temperatures for some lake kayaking from the perfectly situated deck (with a kayak launch and plent of equipment). Strongly recommend!

A group of 13 women booked a weekend away to relax unwind and have fun. This home and the hosts did not disappoint in any way. This is in incredibly beautiful house with ample room and so many amenities. The pictures don’t give you the full effect of how gorgeous it is! You truly feel like you are home away from home! The hosts were super accommodating and keep the property beautifully with clear instructions and organized supplies! Recommend highly!

Wonderful Place
We were there for outdoor activities and leaf peeping. Both went very well. The house itself was more than large enough for our four couples. The very functional kitchen had high end applicances and was large and well stocked. The neighborhood was very quiet and conducive to running/walking/cycling. The nearby Catskills had lots of interesting hikes. We went to a surprisingly good winery (whitecliff) on a rainy day Hosts responded very quickly to all queries. The only downside is that there is no grocery shopping nearby, but that is expected in a rural area. We'll probably come back in the summer when there are many lake activities to participate it.

The house was perfect! We had a girls weekend and there was plenty of space, activities, and amenities. We loved the kayaks and SUP. The house its self was spacious and clean. The owners were so kind and quick to communicate! While we didn’t have kids with us- most of us plan to re-book with our families! There are so many great family activities like games, toys, and movies.

Perfect Family Vacation
This was our 4th year staying at Camp Summer Wind. It is a beautiful home on a quiet area of the lake. The location is perfect for relaxing on the water or being able to use the other amenities available (pool, tennis courts, etc). The pool table and air hockey are great for the kids when taking a break from the heat or on a rainy day. We have also made an annual tradition of going to the local drive in movies during our stay- it is a great area to explore. Nicole and Dave are fantastic hosts. Each year, we continue to be impressed by their availability and quick responses to any questions or needs. Looking forward to returning for our 5th stay next year!

Comfortable, tranquil, beautiful, and FUN!
We 8 adults and 3 children spent a delightful week at Nicole & Dave's home. The 5 BR house is spacious, with lots of spaces inside and out to be together, or alone. TVs and games kept everyone entertained, when not enjoying the surroundings. The lake is calm, and few motor craft use the cove. There are multiple kayacks and a two paddle boards for guests. The gas grill and the kitchen stove worked well, and there are lots of cooking utensils and dinnerware. Finally, Nicole and Dave were welcoming, responsive to our questions, and helpful. Please note: It's a 10 – 20 min. drive to small towns with cafes, restaurants, and shops to enjoy, but no businesses within walking distance, and many places in towns are closed Mon. and Tues. There are parks within a reasonable driving distance where you can hike/walk. However, only a two lane road surrounds the lake with no other walking path in the neighborhood. Lastly, don't forget to pack personal items like beach towels, shampoo and body wash.

Our second stay here
The house is fabulous. We had a wonderful time. I love the kitchen and the 2 fireplaces. The dining room table is the largest one we have seen. It is wonderful to have all of us sit together for meals. This house is at the top of the list of homes we have stayed at. We stay at a VRBO's 3-4 times a year. I would stay here more often, however it books up fast. Thank you Nicole for another wonderful vacation.

Great stay - beautiful property
We stayed here this fall and it was really beautiful - the house itself is comfortable for a large group allowing for people to have their space, yet also have great places to relax. The backyard is amazing and a big highlight. You have the lake, and while we weren't taking advantage of the amenities due to weather, it was still a great place to hang out and enjoy the view when we could. The hosts were very responsive and maintain the property incredibly well. Highly recommend.

Lakeside Family Holiday
We spend 5 nights at this beautiful vacation home to gather with siblings & family. The house was just perfect for our gathering. Large, spacious home where everyone could spread out comfortably. Well equipped with thoughtful items to make you feel right at home. Lots of sitting areas that does not disappoint. The lake was gorgeous to wake up to and the neighborhood peaceful & quiet. The backyard leading to the lake has been very well thought out maximizing the hillside with 3 spacious flat areas set up for different activities. The swing, the fire pit, the canoes all of which we tried and enjoyed. The Game room was the ultimate savior during our rainy days. The hosts Nicole & David were very responsive & excellent communicators. Besides the consistent rain, we had no issues and feel this would be a perfect spot for you and family if you seek a soul fulfilling vacation.

This was our sixth (!) visit to the Summerwind. We love the property, and it just keeps getting better! This year, the owners leveled and redid the fire pit area, which we really appreciated. We had perfect weather and peak foliage during our visit, and it couldn't have been better!
