Bear Cottage Is Close To Everything You Want In The Catskills. The cottage is thoroughly cleaned and disinfected after every visit. We use natural products on food prep areas and for insect control. Your health and ours is what matters most. Built in 1890, Bear cottage is well-maintained and has beautiful hardwood floors, light filled rooms with local art, comfortable furnishings, and a nice selection of books and music to enjoy during your stay.The living room has a cozy gas fireplace, and flows from the entry hall and into the dining/library/music room, which is perfect for entertaining, listening to music, playing games and being together. The country kitchen has everything you need for meal preparations, including an electric stove, coffee maker, dishwasher, and microwave.There are two bedrooms, each with a queen sized bed and antique dresser, as well as hooks for hanging clothes. The bathroom has a bathtub with shower.Bear Cottage is perfectly suited for 4 guests. No more than four adult guests, please. (Babies and toddlers are not counted.)If you need more space, we have a separate VRBO Listing- “Phoenicia 1890 Bear Cottage that includes the renovated attic with two additional bedrooms, a second bathroom and mini kitchen. Message us for more information.**The upstairs area is never rented out separately.Parking: per township rules, there is no on the street parking. The driveway is long and will accommodate four cars parked end to end. Although cell service is poor in Phoenicia, the cottage has Internet, Smart TV (Netflix ready if you have an acct.), DVD player, CD/Aux player, music, books, and movies for guest entertainment. There is no cable at the cottage, but you won't miss it. We have a large backyard with a picnic table, front and back porches with rocking chairs, where you can enjoy a cup of coffee in the mornings.Bear cottage is located in the beautiful hamlet of Phoenicia. Phoenicia is small, but incredibly charming and there are wonderful shops and restaurants, including the famous Phoenicia Diner. Try the incredible pancakes at Sweet Sue’s, wood-fired pizza at Brio’s, and chips, guac and margaritas at Alamo Cantina. Time your visit just right and you may be able to buy unique and cool stuff at the Phoenicia Flea. Local boutiques, hiking trails and the Esopus Creek are all nearby within walking distance.Come to hike, fish, ski, canoe, tube, and connect with nature. Take your dog for a ramble, explore nearby hamlets, or have a spa treatment. Phoenicia is the perfect spot to escape city stress. ***Please note, this being the countryside things are a bit different. The cell phone service is poor in some areas. We have wildlife and insects. Phoenicia gets a lot of rain and there are three creeks within three blocks of bear cottage, so there is moisture. And last, but not least our all volunteer fire dept is activated by a loud siren that goes off every day at noon and as needed for emergencies. Dear Guest, I hope that you have a lovely drive to Phoenicia and a wonderful visit. Please let me know if you have any questions or need anything at anytime. The cottage has been closed up between visits, so it may be a bit stuffy/musty when you first arrive. Leaving the kitchen door open and just using the screen door often does the trick. I have a dehumidifier running on each floor and an air purifier in the entry. Being so close to three bodies of water and in a place that receives a lot of rainfall makes everything green and lush, so the positive outweighs the negative as far as I’m concerned. All my best, Lindsey
