The Tinker Street Retreat is a 3 bedroom Dutch farmhouse built in 1756 by Philip Rick, inventor of the Jonathan apple. Updated with modern amenities but maintaining much of the property's old world charm. Big living room with huge 150" projection screen, razor sharp home theater and dozens of DVDs plus Roku. Fully stocked chef's kitchen, music room with instruments, library. Outside is a fire pit in a beautiful meadow, hammocks, gardens, small stream and forest trails. * STR Permit 22H-259 The house is walking distance to "downtown" Woodstock, right on the main road. During daytime there can be some minimal road noise but by 8pm it’s very quiet. This is a perfect home base for exploring the entire Catskills by day and cooking at home or going out for fine dining, drinks or live bands nearby at night. Saugerties and Kingston are just minutes away for added options. A car is pretty necessary for longer stays but many NYC-based guests take the Trailways bus to Woodstock and have a great time for a weekend getaway. The bus becomes local and can let you off at my driveway. Sunfrost Farm market is close so you can stock up on high quality produce and meats, and also eat breakfast or lunch there any day! Our bedrooms are all queen size, each room with a unique character to it. Bathrooms have electric heaters for added comfort in the winter. The upstairs bathroom has an old fashioned ceramic tub with antique "telephone style" handheld shower, while downstairs is a luxurious, open-design shower.
