Private 5-Acre Farmhouse Retreat - Bethel Woods 25 min - Sleeps 8 - Pets Welcome

Crisp mountain air meets cozy late-fall escapes at Shady Fox Farm Catskills! Unwind at your private 5-acre farmhouse retreat, just 25 minutes from Bethel Woods. Spend crisp autumn afternoons exploring our short, kid-friendly mystery trail through the woods or gathering around the outdoor smokeless fire pit under clear, starry skies. Inside, sit down for a match of chess, checkers, or backgammon, settle in for plush TV movie nights, or cook hearty group feasts in the fully equipped chef’s kitchen (gas stove, oven, microwave, blender). Comfortably sleeps 8 with convenient self check-in via lockbox. Peak late-autumn dates and holiday weekends go fast—all the best properties book up early!

The Space
A 5-acre sanctuary designed for cozy late-fall getaways, scenic mountain foliage drives, and quiet holiday season escapes. Surrounded by quiet forest, the property offers total seclusion to wander the open grounds, take in scenic canopy views, and slow down in nature.

Inside, the home is warm, inviting, and equipped for multi-generational comfort:

Living Room: Features an authentic wood stove aesthetic for cozy mountain charm and a dedicated classic game table ready for chess, checkers, or backgammon.

Family Room: Separate retreat with a plush leather couch and TV—ideal for movie nights after crisp days outdoors.

Chef’s Kitchen: Fully stocked with a full suite of appliances—gas stove, oven, microwave, refrigerator, blender, and slow cooker—alongside a dedicated coffee/tea station and an expandable dining table seating 8.

Family & Baby Ready: Seamless for traveling parents, featuring a Pack ’n Play and family-friendly dining essentials on site.

Outside, step onto your acreage to fire up the BBQ grill, stargaze by the smokeless fire pit, or let four-legged friends roam the open lawn.

This home sleeps 8 comfortably across three inviting bedrooms, all equipped with built-in bedside USB ports:

Bedroom 1 (Primary): Queen bed with an east-facing Juliette balcony framing panoramic forest canopy views.

Bedroom 2: Spacious King bed with rustic custom shiplap walls.

Bethel Woods Center for the Arts (25 mins): Catch late-fall cultural events, harvest celebrations, and upcoming seasonal holiday light festivals.

We really enjoyed our one night (too short!) at Brent’s property. Lovely location, well equipped and suited our needs. The living room/dining room had ample room for our group to do puzzles, and I personally enjoyed the memory foam bed. I wish it was warmer for us to try out the BBQ and gazebo and porch! We will return if the opportunity arises.

My name is Peter Beh. I’m a father of 4 and grandfather of 3. 7 of us just completed a 5 day visit to this truly incredible Catskills Chalet on 5 beautifully peaceful acres in Sullivan County! Our host Brent provided me and my family an incredibly peaceful and serene pre Christmas/Christmas celebration. Fire pit, sleigh riding, hiking and ample and comfortable bedrooms capable of sleeping 8 ! I want to thank VRBO and Brent and will assuredly be returning either next Christmas, or for summer camping! Thanks again and please accept this a a sincere and thoroughly heartfelt endorsement!

This property is perfect for a Catskill vacation! We loved the peace and quiet and the starry night sky was spectacular! Being near Bethel Woods for concerts was very convenient. The house and all amenities were clean and appreciated. The host is quickly responsive to all communication. Book this property! You’ll be glad you did!

Home was spacious, well-stocked, very clean. Property is well-kept and private with wildlife sightings being a bonus. Firepit had plenty of cut wood and an abundance of kindling can be found in surrounding woods (or wise for guests to bring small fire starter logs). Close proximity to Bethel Woods Art/Music venue & Woodstock Festival Museum, as well as quaint neighboring hamlets with a variety of dining options, spirits & breweries. Curvy roads make for an enchantingly scenic countryside drive. Brent's Shady Fox Retreat is truly a Catskill gem!
