Lakefront Luxe: Private Dock, Game Rm, 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.

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 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, beach, tennis and paddle ball courts, basketball courts, playgrounds, driving range and small hikes.

Beautiful Place to Host Geekend
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

Our second stay here
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.

Great stay - beautiful property
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.

Great time was had by all
We had three generations of the family. Very nice comfortable house accommodated us all. The children were delighted by the playroom. Swimming and kayaking from the dock was fun and enjoyed by all. Smores by the firepit was delightful. Also took a little day trip to Legoland, one of the children's biggest dream.

Lakeside Family Holiday
We spend 5 nights at this beautiful vacation home to gather with siblings & family. The house was just perfect for our gathering. Large, spacious home where everyone could spread out comfortably. Well equipped with thoughtful items to make you feel right at home. Lots of sitting areas that does not disappoint. The lake was gorgeous to wake up to and the neighborhood peaceful & quiet. The backyard leading to the lake has been very well thought out maximizing the hillside with 3 spacious flat areas set up for different activities. The swing, the fire pit, the canoes all of which we tried and enjoyed. The Game room was the ultimate savior during our rainy days. The hosts Nicole & David were very responsive & excellent communicators. Besides the consistent rain, we had no issues and feel this would be a perfect spot for you and family if you seek a soul fulfilling vacation.

Annual trip!
This was our sixth (!) visit to the Summerwind. We love the property, and it just keeps getting better! This year, the owners leveled and redid the fire pit area, which we really appreciated. We had perfect weather and peak foliage during our visit, and it couldn't have been better! The owners include little amenities like a coffee grinder and a cupboard of board game to make your stay amazing.

This rental was even more beautiful than the pictures show! Eight BFFs retreated to this home to catch up and relax a bit from the daily grind. We were pleasantly surprised with the size of the home and the scenery was beautiful ... makes me want to return with family in the summertime to "unplug" and enjoy each other's company at Sleepy Hollow Lake!

Truly Fantastic House - Even Better Views!!
A group of 30-something college friends and I reunited at Camp Summer Wind for a relaxing weekend away from the city and the home was even better than we imagined!! Nicole and Dave are a pleasure to communicate with; super responsive and keep the check-in and check-out process very clear and easy to follow. The home was extremely spacious - plenty of room for people have their own room/bathroom, VERY well stocked for cooking needs (likely the most stocked home I've ever stayed in), high end appliances, quality towels and linens (this goes SUCH a long way!!!), strong wifi, and absolutely stunning views and outdoor areas. Loved that the TVs had Rokus and that there were DVDs available as well - such a nice touch! The views from the Adirondack chairs outside are truly beautiful and provide a peaceful setting for morning coffee/yoga/reading. We spent a great amount of time outside and loved the Weber grill. We had a few in our party who immunocompromised and the home was absolutely spotless and very COVID safe. For weekend activities.. we hired a chef to cook in the home one evening and the large dinning room was PERFECT. We also arranged for winery tour in the Hudson Valley through Hudson Valley Bucket List and it was a fantastic. Don't miss out! I highly recommend renting this home as it could not have been better. By far one of the best home-renting experiences anyone in our party has had!

Amazing Vacation!
Absolutely amazing vacation house and location! The house had everything you could possibly need and then some. The owners were amazing and super responsive. The house was extremely clean and comfortable. We were a group between the ages of 87-5. The main floor bedroom and bathroom was perfect for our 87 year old father. Everyone enjoyed the kayaks and the fire pit. The basketball hoop was an added bonus to the outside area. Plenty of seating inside and out which is nice with a larger group. We loved the board games the house provided and the books. Xbox was a huge hit with the kids. The community of Sleepy Hollow Lake was amazing. We really enjoyed the lodge pool and the swimming beach. Kids and adults loved jumping off the dock! We also loved the tennis club area and would have spent more time there if it wasn’t so brutally hot during our visit. We took some day trips. For those visiting the area and looking for things to do (even though you don’t even have to leave the property!) we walked the Hudson River Skywalk and took an easy hike to High Falls waterfall. Do not hesitate to book this property if you’re looking for a relaxing lake getaway. We can’t the owners enough for making the trip easy from booking until check out. Exceptional service that made for a wonderful trip. Thank you!

Wonderful vacation with our adult children, and grandkids, ages 16+. The house was beautiful and was everything that was advertised and pictured on the VRBO website. We enjoyed kyacking, floating in the lake, great game room, where Grandpa surprised all with his expertise at ping pong and air hockey, movies in the media room, and just enjoying being together in lovely and serene surroundings. There was a small housekeeping issue which we handled ourselves. Nicole, our host was very gracious and helpful and was just an email away.The house is in a private community and the pools and lake swimming were delightful and very well maintained. It was a very very hot week and the water activity was very much appreciated. I guess you can tell that we had a great time. We all left feeling very rested. Thanks for helping us to have such an enjoyable vacation. This was our first time using VRBO and we are very impressed.The house and surroundings were everything that was advertised.

Amazing Vacation in the Perfect Home
This is the best home we have ever rented through VRBO. We vacationed with 3 families with 6 adults and 5 children between 2-12 years old. The home is absolutely gorgeous. There are endless activities for everyone to enjoy rain or shine in the house, the community around the lake, and in the surrounding areas. We enjoyed everything from ping-pong to the projection screens, to the fire pits, basketball hoop, and numerous kayaks. We also frequented the community's pools, beach, and tennis and pickle ball courts. The owners maintain the home extremely well with everything neat and labeled, making it very easy to enjoy all the home has to offer. The owners are also in very good communication so we can contact them any time for anything we needed. We really could not have asked for anything more. This home is a perfect vacation house!

This wonderful vacation home exceeded our expectations. It was perfect for our family visiting from Hawaii & California for a wedding in Hudson. Besides the lakefront in a luxury home community with amenities, the home itself offered many spaces to enjoy for different purposes and times of the day.
