truly amazing! my family comes here once a year for a getaway - we fell in love with the place!
The kids had a fun time exploring. This is really a converted barn, not a house decorated to look like a barn. The fireplace, pool table, and sauna were great. The yard is large and the kids had fun snowball fights. Very close to Belleayre mountain. Heating through the barn in winter is a little uneven (some bedrooms were warmer than others).
Ski trip Family ski trip to local trails. The house was warm and comfortable and we enjoyed the hot tub , pool table and proximity to restaurants, shopping and the ski resort. We will be back next year. FYI - temps got down below zero and we were warm the whole time
The Red Cottage was the perfect spot for my family of five offering stunning views of the Catskill Mountains and an eclectic, spacious retreat. I highly recommend for you next stay.
Outstanding Barn Conversion - Loved It! We stayed a week - the place is a super fun barn conversion, perfectly laid-out. Very clean and the owners made every effort to appoint the place with all the necessary vacation items. Kitchen, stocked. Pool table, set. Jacuzzi, super clean/hot. Place has 3 beds, 2.5 baths, great for family, pets etc...and the VIEW, stunning!
We enjoyed the stay - close to the ski resort and local towns / restaurants and shopping. The hot tub was a great way to relax and the barn had plenty of room. We also held a pool tournament in the billiards room.
Magical home packed with activities and at prime location if you are looking to go skiing. The whole experience at Belleayre Barn was such a delight from checkin to checkout. Thank you for such a lovely stay.
We had a great time at the house and enjoying some skiing and family time. Really cool house! Exactly as described.
The coziest, most peaceful, rustic vibe! This space was very warm and welcoming. Super spacious to host a large group, but intimate enough for a romantic getaway. The outdoors, the kitchen, the common space - all provided a vibe that was exactly what I was looking for. My only complaint was that I didn’t book an extra night to stay!
Beautiful location with a great Mountain View! The backyard and deck is incredible. The inside is truly a barn - there aren’t really separate rooms (except for the bedrooms) but perfect stay for a group.
My friends and I had a wonderful stay. The space is huge, well maintained and equipped. It was the perfect space for a weekend of skiing, but would have also worked if all we were doing is retreating from the city. It is a great space for group fun. I would go back any time. The host was welcoming and kind. They even give us a complimentary later stay. Overall, we were very happy with our stay.
Amazing stay at the Barn. It felt upscale and cozy yet spacious at the same time. Layout is interesting and has a lot of character. The photos don’t do the space justice - I wish we could have spent more days staying there. Host was responsive and accommodating, and we felt like instructions were very easy and clear.
Beautiful. Such a creative use of space and remodel of a Barn. The multiple levels and open space make it super fun and an enjoyable space for even just 2 of us and our four legged pal. Always fun to have a pool table with ample room to play and multiple wood stoves that were fully stocked ready to be fired up. Kitchen was also stocked with everything one would need to cook. There was a fire ban in effect, so we didn't get to utilized the outdoor fire pit, but the view from that area is amazing and was still enjoyable to just sit and enjoy being outside. I have to admit having used Airbnb's around the world - this is truly a unique and one of a kind stay.
This was the perfect getaway in the catskills, an airbb that was so nice, you did not want to leave! our dogs had the weekend of their lives, wish we could have stayed longer! Would definitely recommend. The sauna was also a great amenity!
Unique and well designed Positive: Wonderful barn conversion with stylish furnishings and creative use of building material. The kitchen was well appointed with quality cookware and dinnerware. We loved the sauna, wood stoves and pool table. Quality linens and bedding. Nice views from the deck with lots of natural light from sliders and skylights. The property is an easy drive to services in Margaretville, yet quiet. On a side note, we had a thrilling visit from a herd of 15 Percheron horses including a couple of gorgeous foals. As a horse owner I was worried for their safety but it was lovely to have them canter past the house and stop to graze in the field. Negative: This property is obviously well-loved by the owners, from the careful selection of decor, to the quality kitchen tools including chef caliber knives and stove, and a nice selection of games and puzzles. There were quite a few maintenance issues, each by themselves minor but taken together I cannot give this property top marks especially when compared to other rentals that were immaculate in every way. That being said, we had a very pleasant week even though it rained on 3 of 5 days, because the space is welcoming and comfortable despite the obvious wear and tear.
This place was incredible! Went on a girls trip with 3 other friends and we had the most wonderful stay. We also utilized the hot tub and fire pit which were lovely. If I’m being nit picky, I will say the outdoor area could use a little more care. There were spider webs around the hot tub and on the lawn chairs, but that’s also to be expected being out in nature.
Amazing stay, the house is awesome! Perfect for a country side getaway Perfect hosts
My friends and I have been going to the Catskills at the end of the summer for a couple of years now to celebrate my birthday, and this was by far our favorite stay. We actually found ourselves changing our plans in the area so that we could spend more time relaxing at the barn and enjoying the amenities. The location is also within 15-45 minutes of lots of great restaurants and attractions. I can’t say enough great things about this place. The space was decorated and crafted with intention, and was beyond unique. If you are looking to getaway to the Catskills for any reason, book this place!! I promise you won’t regret it.
We had a fabulous family vacation in this unique space with its giant ceiling and massive beams. Belleayre Barn is beautifully designed with spaces on different levels for hanging out. We appreciated the antique furnishings and decor throughout. Pool table, chess, board games, a big comfy sectional for watching movies...it's impossible to get bored here. The weather was great during our stay, so we were mostly outdoors. We loved the deck and fire pit. Unfortunately the hot tub had a malfunction while we were there, but Red Cottage promptly offered to adjust our payment accordingly to reflect this. Also, our stay was in August, and the lack of AC was not a problem in the least - the weather was cool and we even ended up shutting the windows and screen doors sometimes. There are fans available if needed. The bedrooms are private and comfortable (though noise does carry a bit from room to room because of the barn structure). Can't wait to go back!
Lovely, peaceful stay with helpful, responsive hosts. Looking forward to staying here again with a larger group!
We had a grand time. The views outside are amazing.
If you’re looking for a peaceful, unique experience then this is the place for you and your loved ones. Being an actual barn converted into an airbnb, it looks like no other rental on this app. Exposed interior beams, the smell of wood throughout the home, and a quiet and pleasant view to enjoy your morning coffee leaves you in such a cozy state that you’ll ask yourself why didn’t I book another day or two. The host was very attentive, instructions were clear and concise, and they allow your furry friends to spend the time with you. We can’t wait to come back!
The place is great! Perfect location for a peaceful retreat bc you have the mountain views right in your backyard. Pool table is an awesome touch, too. Spacious house, with more than enough bedrooms. I liked the decorations on the place. You can tell they put thought into this. All the appliances were sturdy and in great shape. The back porch and the fire place is the best spots to hang out on. The views are amazing. We did not use the sauna, but if you go in the winter, it might be awesome. This is one of the coolest houses we have seen. Will def use them again for our yearly trip to upstate.
Great location. Beautiful energy and home. Highly recommend
House was great, staff was awesome and communicated well. Worked out any issues we did have directly and I would highly recommend the house.
We had such a lovely little star at the Bellayre Barn and would absolutely love to come back again! The house is so beautiful and unique, and it came with everything we could need! Really appreciate the convenient location close to Margaretville and Bellayre Mountain. We would recommend this place for anyone looking for a perfect stay in the Catskills.
Tirando a poeira na casa e mal cheiro nas roupas de cama , estava tudo perfeito bem equilibrado com muitos jogos e coisas para fazer no celeiro
Really unique space in a beautiful area of Upstate NY. The billiards table and kitchen were our favorite parts of the house.
The Red Cottage was truly a unique place! The photos make it look very spacious and amazing but the photos don't really do it justice as it's better in person! Truly a one of a kind. The backyard mountain vistas and nighttime stargazing were pretty special too. The sauna and hot tub were nice amenities. We hope we can go back very soon!
Fun at the barn. We had alot of fun will def stay here again
Beautiful spot and very fun barn reno. Sauna, hot tub and views for days.
Charming Barn with great Amenities. We had a great weekend at this unique and charming barn! The space was beautifully rustic with an original character that made it truly special. The layout was thoughtfully designed, providing a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The views from the property were stunning, and we thoroughly enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub and sauna – a very great addition for a getaway. That said, there were a few areas for improvement. The number of flies inside was overwhelming at times, which detracted from the otherwise serene experience. Additionally, the property wasn’t as secluded as we had hoped, with some nearby activity noticeable. A few small touches in the kitchen, like having coffee or tin foil available, would have been appreciated to make it feel a bit more accommodating. We also noticed the hot tub could have used some chlorine, but we couldn’t find any on-site. Lastly, the welcome packet could have included more detailed information about the property and amenities, which would have made it easier to navigate and enjoy everything the barn has to offer. Overall, it was a memorable stay, and with a little attention to these details, this could be an absolutely perfect getaway spot!
I had an amazing stay at Red Cottage! I highly reccommend.
Keri was a pleasure to host. Quiet and respectful. Would be welcome back again in the future.
The house was truly a dream for our weekend upstate. It delivered beyond our expectations. I'm hoping we can book again and get a chance to spend a longer time.
Great barn! Great place to stay! This barn is so original and the rooms were comfortable. Beautiful property and Mountain views. Unfortunately, the hot tub was not available for us during our stay and we were not informed of this, so that was a big disappointment. Great fire pit and deck, though, to compensate for this mishap. Be sure to visit the shops in Margaretville! Great little town close by.
Enjoyed the stay! Loved the design. Very peaceful area and great location.
The house is really cool! Really beautiful views, we had a beautiful and peaceful weekend at this place, The hosts were really nice, fast communication, we would definitely come back again! Nanach
The views were breathtaking. The silence and serenity was more than needed. The home was immaculate. Such a great relief and respite.
