Property Description
This enchanting solar-powered log chalet on 17 private acres is an ideal base camp for your unique Catskills adventures. The custom built log home has been thoughtfully updated with modern amenities and personal touches, including:
✔ A massive wraparound deck w/ integrated pool & expansive mountain views
✔ Open concept layout w/ 20' ceilings
✔ A fully updated eat-in Chef's kitchen
✔ 3+ BRs w/ luxury linens
✔ Fire Pit
✔ Huge finished loft + game area in garage
✔ High-Speed WiFi (mobile hotspot w/ data cap)
The Space:
The Hirox is a thoughtfully restored log chalet located in an idyllic setting for relaxing, recharging, and exploring the wonders of the Catskills. The space feels open and expansive, yet cozy and intimate. The Hirox can comfortably accommodate a wide range of guests, from solo writers desiring a quiet space to work to a group of 9 looking to get away from the big city (2.5 hrs from the GW bridge).
Once inside, you will instantly feel the warmth of the honey-hued logs, abundant daylight, and thoughtful eco-friendly personal touches. There is nothing quite like the feel of a true log constructed home. The main level features 20’ vaulted ceilings, an open concept layout with kissing couches, a gas fireplace, and fully updated eat-in Chef’s kitchen with quartz countertops, electric range w/ air fryer, dishwasher, and stocked cabinets (coffee and espresso makers, pots and pans, spices, oils, etc). Cook your heart away while staying fully engaged with friends/family in the living room.
Off the kitchen is a private bedroom with a tempur-pedic queen mattress, luxury linens, a private workspace, and sweeping mountain views, as well as a full bathroom, complete with a toilet bidet.
Up from the main level is an open loft bedroom that pulls you into the treetops while bathing you in natural light from the oversized skylights. The loft features a queen bed, private workspace, bookshelf, and a custom railing with lush living plants.
The ground level serves as the primary entrance to the Hirox and is the perfect place to wind down after a day exploring the Catskill Mountains. It features a flexible entertaining/living space and large dining/activity table that can seat up to 10 people. Custom curtains can be drawn to enclose the sectional sofa, creating either a home theater for streaming movies on the smart TV or a private 3rd bedroom when the sofa is converted to a full-sized bed. In colder months, the ground floor becomes toasty warm with the embedded in floor radiant heat system. A second full bathroom is off the hallway alongside a laundry room with brand new washer and dryer (available for guests staying longer than a week).
No matter where you are inside, you will always feel close to the secluded natural setting. The massive 2,000 sq ft wraparound deck serves as an extension to the main living level, allowing a free flow through or around the house to fully immerse yourself in nature. The deck features an integrated 4’ deep cocktail pool, lounge chairs, propane grill, and awning-covered swings to take in the expansive mountain views and starry night skies.
Once outside, appreciate the open front lawn perfect for yard games or swinging on the hammock. Alongside the house is ‘Onyx Rock’, the natural stone slab where a solo-stove firepit and adirondack chairs are placed. Walk down the driveway to explore the spring fed pond, or up the hill out back to see the dramatic rock formations.
The garage has been converted into an open game area (darts, foosball, kubb, cornhole, etc) with bonus ‘Annex’ loft that can provide additional accommodation to groups of 6 or more, or by request for those wanting more space/privacy*. The Annex has its own HVAC heating/cooling system and features a king and two twin beds, as well as a full living room/seating area. A 10-kw level 2 charger is placed just inside the garage entrance (available upon request for guests with EVs), drawing power from the solar panels on the roof.
There are abundant ways to use and appreciate the Hirox. No matter your group size, you will have access to the following items to make your stay as comfortable and inspired as it can be:
✔ Luxury beds, linens and towels
✔ High speed internet (mobile hotspot w/ 100gb data/month)
✔ Fully stocked Chef's kitchen
✔ Telescope for stargazing
✔ 2k sq ft wraparound deck w/ integrated pool
✔ Ceiling fans
✔ AC unit for summer months
✔ Gas fireplace
✔ Public Goods personal care products
✔ Coffee makers (drip, french press, aero press)
✔ Boardgames and books
✔ Smart TV
✔ Bluetooth stereos
✔ Deck swings and hammock
✔ Regional art and decor
✔ Hand sewn pillows and upholstered headboards
✔ Bidets and touchless soap dispensers
✔ Propane BBQ grill
✔ Firepit
✔ Self check-in keypad
The Hirox is within 25 minutes of Plattekill and Windham mountains, 30 to Hunter and 35 to Belleayre for skiing. It is also proximal to multiple charming Catskill villages (Roxbury, Stamford, Hobart, Margaretville, Andes, Delhi), great hikes, state parks, restaurants, coffee shops, farmers markets, and antique vendors. In addition, the 26-mile Catskills Scenic Trail is easily accessed at the base of the entrance road (xc skiing, biking, etc). Come back to experience the magic of different seasons!
Other Notes:
* The garage 'annex' is available for groups of 6 or more via an additional per person fee of $50/night (added during checkout). This covers additional cleaning fees alongside added usage of garage game area and main house kitchen and baths.
* The pool is not heated and is therefore open from late June to early October (the Hirox is at 1800 ft elevation and can experience freezes up to Memorial Day).
* 4WD / AWD is recommended during winter months.

Weekend getaway

Beautiful Home with Incredible Hosts
This is our second time staying at the Hirox property. The house is beautiful, well stocked with everything you would need and more, and the surrounding mountains and forest is the ideal place to get away and relax. Two major ski resorts within 30 min distance makes this the absolute perfect place to stay. The hosts are the most conscientious, responsive and caring people that I have ever encountered in my entire history of renting. We had snow storms, wind storms and tons of questions and not only did they respond immediately with solutions, but they did it while being on their own vacation. This will be our home away from home and we look forward to visiting many more times in the future.

Perfect secluded getaway in beautiful nature!
We came on a friends’ trip and were so happy with our stay. The place was very tidy, the pantry was stocked, and the property was so beautiful. The walk up to the rock formations is easy (we wore Tevas and were fine, but sneakers would’ve been better) and worth it for the peaceful vibes and super trippy moss. The pool was great, lots of towels were provided and we appreciated that a ton. The annex is also really cozy and those who slept there said it was awesome and a bathroom would make it perfect. We all loved our stay, and Joshua was communicative and friendly. Thank you for a lovely weekend!

Fantastic get away
We loved our stay! You can tell this is the owner’s second home that is lovingly cared for and decorated. The directions made it easy to find, check in very easy, and the house was exactly as pictured. The loft is a very cool room! There is a ton of activities to do for fun that unfortunately we ran out of time to enjoy. A+

Would stay again!
The property was a very cool concept, super clean and a modern build. Owner was very welcoming and communicative. Definitely suggest staying at this VRBO is you are in this area, would be great for multiple couples or family members.
If we are back in the area, we will definitely stay again!

Cozy Winter Weekend
We had a fantastic stay at the Hirox. Joshua kept in contact well before our arrival in order to pre-heat the residence, which was a very lovely and personable touch. You can tell that Joshua really cares for this property and for the guests that stay in it. The pictures were quite accurate, including the beautiful views from the balcony!
The kitchen was stocked with spices and basics like olive oil, which made cooking meals so much easier for us.
The bedrooms were very much as advertised and clean bedsheets + linens were ready for us and in stock. Showering was hassle-free!
Joshua is an excellent host, offering an incredible property in a secluded location with close access to at least 3 ski resorts. 5 stars all around and I hope to return soon!

Weekend Getaway
My family and I loved our stay at the Hirox Chalet! Joshua and Tanya were quick to respond to any questions or requests I had. I found that the home was well thought out and had just about anything we needed for the weekend. All of the instructions I was given were clear and easy to follow and made for a seamless trip. I loved the little things like the touchless soap dispensers and the bidets on each toilet. I hope to be back someday.
