Waterfront Luxe: Kayak & SUP From Private Dock, Pong & Air Hockey, Near Hudson
Our spacious yet warm 5 bedroom home with gorgeous lake views, private dock and fire pit, is the perfect retreat for family and friends. Camp Summer Wind, located 20 minutes from Hudson and 10 minutes from Coxsackie, offers the very best of lake living combined with home entertainment and a gourmet chef's kitchen. Nestled within the rural beauty of the Catskill Mountains, and only a 10 minute drive to the quaint Hudson River villages of Athens and Coxsackie.
Impeccably cared for and well-appointed home offers 5 large bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, direct lake access, kayaking, paddle boarding, sunbathing, fire pit, hammock, wifi, media room and projection screen, gourmet kitchen, multiple decks and outdoor activities, 5 burner stainless steel grill, board games, ping pong and air hockey, darts, xbox one and two gas fireplaces.
While we named our home "Camp Summer Wind", there are so many activities in every season. Outside of everything lake living offers in the summer, the Catskill area boasts some of the best leaf peeping around. From the drive up the Taconic and views on the lake, to all the local hiking. Hikes range in difficulty and lead to Hudson Valley treasures and waterfalls. There are an abundance of farms within a short distance for apple and pumpkin picking in addition to fresh fruits and veggies. For our snow bunnies, we are 40/50 minutes from beautiful Hunter and Windham Mountains. In addition to world class skiing and snowboarding, there are zip-lines, tubing, and many other activities for all ages. Please inquire about all other activities as there are too many to list in a description :)
Our home is situated within Sleepy Hollow Lake, a private residential community located in beautiful Greene County along the Hudson River. We are located in a smaller cove off the main lake, perfect for swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding, fishing and floating. Guests will have access to our private on-property dock and kayaks and SUP boards, as well as all of the amenities the community has to offer: two outdoor pools, 5 min drive to community beach, tennis and paddle ball courts, basketball courts, playgrounds, driving range and small hikes.

The house is amazing! Clean, spacious, and incredibly comfortable. This was our second time staying here and we were already talking about next time. It has everything you could need and more. The location is great and there's so much to do at the house you don't need to leave. Very family friendly with lots of toys, plastic plates/cups, books, games. Great communication with the hosts and they provide lots of ideas for restaurants and things to do.
I booked this house for a girls weekend, there 6 of us and we had such a nice Time. I had excellent and clear communication with Nicole and Dave, the house was very clean and welcoming. I highly recommend this house for your next getaway in that area.
We enjoyed our stay at the property. The house was spacious and well furnished. It was ideal for our family and kids and toddlers.
The owners were super responsive on all our questions
Would strongly recommend!
Spacious, clean home with great outdoor area leading down to a lake. Great amenities and great documentation of home features and activities in the area.
Check in and check out very easy.
Highly recommended.
The house is a great place for a family gathering. Lots of space both indoors and outdoors for sitting and visiting. Well equipped kitchen. Nice to have plenty of bathrooms so no waiting. Hosts were very responsive.
Stayed at the house over Christmas with family. The house is well-appointed with excellent heat. Hosts were excellent at communicating with us when we had questions.
We had an excellent time, and even though the weather didn't cooperate with us to enjoy many outdoor activities, Summer Wind made up for it with a roomy and comfortable place to hang out with old friends. We will definitely keep Summer Wind on the list for future Geekends <3
This property was excellent. My family and I enjoyed the lake, pools, hiking trails, restaurants, drive-in movie, farmers market, and kayaking. The kitchen had all the necessary cookware to cook meals for our large group. We had 1 night of bad weather, but it was perfect for watching a movie in the basement. I also appreciated the way the owners left labels and instructions in the house. It may sound silly, but it was very helpful to know what the switches were for or note where we could find things. Overall, it was a fantastic property, community, and surrounding area!
The house is gorgeous, clean, and well equipped. We loved the playroom downstairs and all of the perfect places to sit and look out at the lake. We didn't do any day trips because we just wanted to spend time at the house and on the lake!
We stayed here this fall and it was really beautiful - the house itself is comfortable for a large group allowing for people to have their space, yet also have great places to relax. The backyard is amazing and a big highlight. You have the lake, and while we weren't taking advantage of the amenities due to weather, it was still a great place to hang out and enjoy the view when we could. The hosts were very responsive and maintain the property incredibly well. Highly recommend.
The house was perfect! We had a girls weekend and there was plenty of space, activities, and amenities. We loved the kayaks and SUP. The house its self was spacious and clean. The owners were so kind and quick to communicate! While we didn’t have kids with us- most of us plan to re-book with our families! There are so many great family activities like games, toys, and movies.
The house is fabulous. We had a wonderful time. I love the kitchen and the 2 fireplaces. The dining room table is the largest one we have seen. It is wonderful to have all of us sit together for meals. This house is at the top of the list of homes we have stayed at. We stay at a VRBO's 3-4 times a year. I would stay here more often, however it books up fast. Thank you Nicole for another wonderful vacation.
A group of 13 women booked a weekend away to relax unwind and have fun. This home and the hosts did not disappoint in any way. This is in incredibly beautiful house with ample room and so many amenities. The pictures don’t give you the full effect of how gorgeous it is! You truly feel like you are home away from home! The hosts were super accommodating and keep the property beautifully with clear instructions and organized supplies! Recommend highly!
This was our 4th year staying at Camp Summer Wind. It is a beautiful home on a quiet area of the lake. The location is perfect for relaxing on the water or being able to use the other amenities available (pool, tennis courts, etc). The pool table and air hockey are great for the kids when taking a break from the heat or on a rainy day.
We have also made an annual tradition of going to the local drive in movies during our stay- it is a great area to explore.
Nicole and Dave are fantastic hosts. Each year, we continue to be impressed by their availability and quick responses to any questions or needs.
Looking forward to returning for our 5th stay next year!
We were there for outdoor activities and leaf peeping. Both went very well. The house itself was more than large enough for our four couples. The very functional kitchen had high end applicances and was large and well stocked. The neighborhood was very quiet and conducive to running/walking/cycling. The nearby Catskills had lots of interesting hikes. We went to a surprisingly good winery (whitecliff) on a rainy day Hosts responded very quickly to all queries. The only downside is that there is no grocery shopping nearby, but that is expected in a rural area. We'll probably come back in the summer when there are many lake activities to participate it.
What a fabulous time we had in this beautiful home! Girls reunion - we have known each other since sleep away camp which started when we were nine! This was a perfect getaway - easy drive from Boston and from Tarrytown. Can't say enough about this home - it is fully stocked with everything we could have ever needed: games, kitchen appliances (multiple coffee makers), kitchen gadgets, spices, pots and pans, wine glasses, etc. Truly anything! In addition, the hosts were wonderful communicators - answering any questions immediately and checking in on their own to make sure we didn't need anything. Even greeted us with a wonderful welcome basket with treats and wine! In our experience that it above and beyond the norm and very much appreciated. Unfortunately the weather did not cooperate and we weren't able to use the boats on the lake, but the home offers beautiful views and comfortable couches and chairs so it made it very easy to be inside and feel the serenity. Many thanks to Nicole and Dave - great trip!!
This lovely lake house felt more updated and larger than the pictures suggest for our Fall trip! There was plenty of space for our 8-person, multi-generational family gathering, and the layout was very conducive to both together-time and breaks. We enjoyed the large dining room table for a big family dinner cooked in the high-end kitchen, after which we retired to the great room, which was more spacious than expected, with a perfect lake view. The ground floor bedroom was great for some elderly family members, and the rest of the bedrooms accommodated all preferences, easily (and were accurately described in the listing). All rooms in the house felt recently updated and modern. The hosts were very responsive and kind. The location is close enough to everything we wanted to do, with at least one adorable farm shop within a 10-minute drive. We braved the colder temperatures for some lake kayaking from the perfectly situated deck (with a kayak launch and plent of equipment). Strongly recommend!
We 8 adults and 3 children spent a delightful week at Nicole & Dave's home. The 5 BR house is spacious, with lots of spaces inside and out to be together, or alone. TVs and games kept everyone entertained, when not enjoying the surroundings. The lake is calm, and few motor craft use the cove. There are multiple kayacks and a two paddle boards for guests. The gas grill and the kitchen stove worked well, and there are lots of cooking utensils and dinnerware. Finally, Nicole and Dave were welcoming, responsive to our questions, and helpful.
Please note: It's a 10 – 20 min. drive to small towns with cafes, restaurants, and shops to enjoy, but no businesses within walking distance, and many places in towns are closed Mon. and Tues. There are parks within a reasonable driving distance where you can hike/walk. However, only a two lane road surrounds the lake with no other walking path in the neighborhood. Lastly, don't forget to pack personal items like beach towels, shampoo and body wash.
We had such a great girl's weekend here. House was so beautiful and cozy. Location is a short drive to shops and restaurants. Nicole was very communicative and a welcoming host. I would highly recommend.
This was our 6th year at Camp SummerWind. Fantastic location and beautiful home. This house comes with everything you could need for both lakeside and indoor fun and relaxation. Hosts are very accommodating and responsive. We will be back again for year 7
Nicole & David have a beautiful property nestled away in a cozy neighborhood that was prefect for the weekend trip my friends & I took. We felt immediately at home upon arrival and the hosts made sure we had everything we needed, from an awesome curated list of places to check out nearby to making the most of our time at the house. I couldn't recommend their property enough, all of our first thoughts when leaving was how amazing it would be to come back in the summer.
