Spacious waterfront home, presented by StayBettr Vacation Rentals, with massive and inviting outdoor spaces, hot tub, and with access to a private dock. Indoors you will discover cathedral ceilings, multiple fireplaces, and several areas for your group to come together.

Support During Your Stay:

The Neighborhood:
Swinging Bridge Reservoir is the largest largest lake in the Sullivan Catskills, and one of the few that allows motor boats. You'll feel removed from the city, but still within 20 minutes of groceries and things to do. The neighborhood is a mix of seasonal homes and year round residents. A public boat launch is nearby, and just around the corner are two full services marinas--Starlight and Swinging Bridge Marinas.
Getting Around:
I recommend having car for your stay. Taxis are available, but ride sharing services are more sparse. Rental car services are available in Monticello. Shortline Coach Bus Service provides service between New York City and Monticello as well.
Otisville and Port Jervis Metro North Stations are each approximately 30 minutes drive from the house. The trip from NY Penn Station to Otisville is about 2 hours. Train access is great if you have members of your group who need to arrive/depart at different times.
Things To Know:
You will be required to sign a rental agreement after check out. Full terms of the agreement are available on request. Additionally, you will be required to complete third-party identity verification and background checks. If you have questions about either of these requirements please message us prior to booking.
The property requires a $500 security deposit via credit card, or to pay a fee to waive the security deposit.
No more than 6 cars allowed.
While covered above, please note again that the Kid's Kabin does NOT have a bathroom or have central AC. You must walk back to the main house for a restroom.
The dock is not available from early November until the lake has thawed and levels stabilize in late spring.
This home is pet free, no exceptions.
