Good to know

"One of the best Airbnb cabins we’ve rounded up from all across the U.S. " - Architectural Digest, 2022 "Top 12 Airbnbs in the Catskills" - Time Out, 2018-2026 (**Please note: Reviews posted before July 2026 refer to the original cabin that once occupied this site. Cabin One has since been completely rebuilt as an entirely new 640-square-foot, two-bedroom, two-bath luxury retreat with modern amenities.) Nestled at the foot of the Catskill High Peaks, this one-of-a-kind shipping container cabin combines modern design, handcrafted details, and complete comfort in the heart of New York’s Hudson Valley. Built from two high-cube containers that overlap to create a dramatic central living space, the cabin offers a spacious and thoughtfully designed retreat for families, couples, or friends seeking both adventure and relaxation. The layout features two private bedroom suites on either end of the cabin, each with large 5-by-7-foot picture windows that frame the surrounding landscape. The primary suite includes a private deck, a slate-tiled en suite bathroom, soaking tub, and shower. The guest suite has its own bathroom and direct access to an outdoor deck. Throughout the cabin, handmade pendant lights, custom sconces, and warm natural materials create a welcoming atmosphere. The central great room features a fully equipped kitchen with butcher-block countertops, a large farmhouse sink, electric range, refrigerator, and dining table that comfortably seats six. A spacious Burrow sofa invites guests to gather, relax, and enjoy the views. High-speed internet, full utilities, and a Mitsubishi mini-split system provide year-round comfort. Outside, a large garden planted with native trees and shrubs surrounds the cabin. A slate patio includes a fire ring, outdoor kitchen, dining area, and wood-fired pizza oven, creating the perfect setting for long evenings outdoors. An outdoor shower crafted from timber harvested on the property offers a memorable way to start or end the day. Just steps from the cabin, a dramatic 15-foot-high slate cliff stretches along the property, creating a striking natural backdrop. Located only 15 minutes from Saugerties, Woodstock, Kingston, the Hudson River, and countless hiking trails, the cabin is an ideal basecamp for exploring the Catskills. *Click on our logo to book another cabin on our property.

House Rules

We ask guests to communicate clearly if they are comfortable in an off-grid environment. This might mean splitting wood, starting a fire, heating water to shower with, getting creative with luggage storage, living in a small space, walking through the woods at night, walking outside to go to the bathroom, fixing something that breaks, etc... We try to be as forthright as possible about this amazing property and cabin: It is a luxurious micro-pod smack in the middle of the wilderness. It's a real drag when someone asks, "Where the hell is the refrigerator!" Or "There's no TV?!" Or “How do you turn the wood stove on?” So the rule is, please understand what you are getting into before you book, and prepare with warm clothes, a multi-tool, a headlamp, a lighter and a good pair of boots.

Accessibility

Neighborhood

We have a brand new driveway, but it's still gravel and can be bumpy. Go slow...
