Nothing like dining in the great Catskill Mountain outdoors!
A queen sized bed makes a great rest spot after a day of adventure!

Perfect Catskills Getaway

Often guesthouses are shoved in the back of a property, seemingly as an afterthought, without a view and shabbily furnished. Not here! The 360 degrees views are stunning, the unit modern with a touch of farmhouse charm and perfect for a long-weekend getaway in the Catskills. Don’t miss it.

Excellent!

We had a wonderful stay at this property. Brian is a fabulously gracious host. He even left us chocolate:). The property looks just like the photos, which helped us to have confidence that the place would be as described. For us, desperately in need of a quiet rest, the place was terrific. The bed is very comfortable, spacious bathroom, nice kitchenette and a beautiful flower garden. I’m sure that I’ve forgotten something, but you will not be disappointed. This one is a gem.

Mid-September visit to the Catskills

We were so pleased with our stay at this loft in Margaretville. Not only was it spacious, clean, and had everything we needed, but it is located in a great area for hiking, which was our main objective. We appreciated the hiking books and maps, as well as binoculars that were in the loft. Though the weather kept us indoors one evening, we entertained ourselves by watching a movie and playing board games they had. Our hosts Brian and Carmen were absolutely wonderful, giving us a warm welcome and providing information on local eateries, shopping and sites to see. I highly recommend this property and hope it will be available the next time we are in that area.

Perfect Girls-Getaway

Sunny Loft was just as advertised! A friend and I decided to take a couple days to do some hiking and paddling in the Catskills. There were many trails to choose from nearby. We ended up paddling on Alder Lake, a small calm lake with an easy loop trail and harder trail up to a fire tower and got to some other trails and peaks as well. The loft had excellent WiFi that allowed us to get our directions and make our plans. There’s not much service otherwise. The loft was just right for the two of us. Brian gave excellent directions to get there and the space was so welcoming. The property was full of beautiful flowers, a grill (that we didn’t get around to using), outdoor seating and a cute spot for a gas campfire. It was perfect for reading and coffee in the morning too! The space inside was just as nice. We appreciated the coffee and local milk, as well as bedding, linens, etc. It was great not to have to pack those things. We brought our food with us. The fridge, toaster oven, microwave and two burner hot plate worked great. Brian was exceptional with communication. In the welcome folder with all kinds of great information, he mentioned that it would be a good thing to let him know if we were headed out into the wilderness for safety- as there’s no real cell service around. We appreciated that someone was looking out for us. I would highly recommend the Sunny Loft and look forward to visiting again.

Perfect place for a getaway in the Catskills

Brian & Carmel have a lovely place in Catskills on a remote mountain/hill. It's perfectly located to get to the main hiking trails. The loft has all the amenities you need. We definitely recommend this place, in the fall the coloring of trees is amazing!

About the host

Hosted by Brian Sweeney

Host profile image
My wife. Carmel, and I purchased a fixer-upper in 2003 and moved in after four years of part-time renovation work. We had previously lived in nearby Arkville for 18 years, but wanted to "head for the hills" after our daughter graduated high school. We built a Craftsman-style garage in 2016 for use as a guest space and rental unit.

Why they chose this property

I have spent my entire life in the Catskills and can't think of a better place to live. My wife relocated here more than 30 years ago and fell in love with mountain life (and me, of course). I own a marketing company, Locust Grove Enterprises, and my wife is the Business Development Manager at Frost Valley YMCA - one of the Y's largest camp and conference centers,.

What makes this property unique

We love entertaining and since we built our garage/studio, we have more guests than ever. It's really a "sweet spot" up here on the mountain. When the leaves are off, you can catch the sun glinting off the Pepacton Reservoir. Or, take a hike up or down the winding road that leads to our property and simply enjoy the quiet and the legendary lure of the Catskills. We have made great friendships up here - it's a really special spot and Studio 502, as we have dubbed it, is a perfect place to use as a home base - for a few days or longer. FOR WINTER VISITS, WE REQUIRE THAT YOU BRING AN ALL-WHEEL-DRIVE VEHICLE. Our property is off the beaten path and winter driving can be a challenge. Please bring and all-wheel-drive during winter visits...we'd like your stay to be as pleasant as possible.
