Knickerbocker is great, we've stayed a few times now.
One item to mention though, the description says that fans are available (property has no A/C) and there were no other fans apart from the ceiling fans.
While it wasn't super hot like it had been, room fans for the bedroom(s) would have been a plus.
If the only fans are the 2 ceiling fans, the description should probably just say 2 ceiling fans and their locations.

Great little getaway house in the Sullivan Catskills!Totally remodeled home
Totally remodeled home that is bright and airy. 3 bedrooms enough to sleep 6 adults, amazing open kitchen, and of course a hot tub on the terrace. Fairly clean and thoughtfully decorated (not cheap decor like most Airbnbs)! Itโs a bit of a drive to the 3 main Catskill mountains for skiing but if youโre into a quiet getaway or hiking, this is a great spot/find. Local road was plowed immediately after a snowstorm which was surprising and a relief!

We had a wonderful stay at this beautifully designed apartment!
Guest services were responsive and helpful, especially when we found ourselves accidentally locked out. It wasnโt clear to us that we shouldnโt use the door handle lock, and unfortunately, this led to some confusion. Thankfully, we were able to wait in the car and escape the cold while the locksmith arrived, but clearer instructions on this would have made the experience smoother.
Despite this hiccup, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and appreciated the prompt assistance from the host. This is a fantastic place, and we wouldnโt hesitate to stay here again with that one improvement addressed. Highly recommend!

Summary
Knickerbocker Knoll is a stylish and modern cabin with treetop views and an emphasis on minimalism and tranquility, in the heart of the Catskills, located 2 hours from NYC.
Set on 4 private acres surrounded by woodlands, the lodge has 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths. Amenities include a wood burning stove, hot tub, firepit, and access to the best hiking and dining in the region. The lively town of Livingston Manor is about 10 minutes away and Callicoon is under 20 minutes.
The Home
Set back from a quiet road, on four acres of private woodland, not far from the Willowemoc Wild Forest, Knickerbocker Knoll is a modern cabin ideal for lovers of design and the great outdoors.
The interior starts with an open floor plan and is a blend of Danish and American mid-century modern design. There is a well-appointed kitchen with butcher block countertops and a generous island with seating so you can keep the chef company. Make the perfect brew with the iconic Technivorm Moccamaster coffee machine and check the dayโs forecast or play your favorite music on Spotify through the smart speaker.
Set on the other side of the open living space is a modernist seating area. With sliding glass doors lining the length of the space, sitting on the sofa is both an indoor and outdoor activity. A large painting of the beloved Kaaterskill Falls by local artist Steven Weinberg acts as another natural focal point to the room. Beneath the artwork a Vintage B&O turntable and dedicated speaker system allows guests to play the growing vinyl collection, while the super-cool Bouroullec Brothers-designed โSerif TVโ looks so good you might not even bother turning it on.
The marble top dining table seats 4, with additional stools to circle around and enjoy a meal as a group. Beside the table, the cornered wood stove provides a cozy meeting point, perfectly situated for fireside chats.
Through the hall, the master king bedroom is an expansive sanctuary with a giant picture window that frames the woods beyond. This room truly feels like youโre nestled amongst the solace of the trees. There is a door providing direct access to the deck. The master en-suite bathroom features an incredible soaking tub with a view, and has a walk-in shower and double vanity sinks.
Two additional queen-sized bedrooms also take advantage of the views and natural light. The ample guest bath features a shower and tub combo.
Out onto the deck, there is a large gas grill, a dining table for up to six, and two Tamarack lounge chairs, made for relaxing and taking in the views out over the rocky ledge. Enjoy the newly installed hot tub or, head down the hill into the open clearing in the woodlands to enjoy the firepit.
Located on a sleepy mountain road, Knickerbocker Knoll sits just outside Willowemoc Wild Forest, home to several great hikes, and is less than five minutes to The Club Room at The DeBruce Inn. After youโve worked up an appetite in the fresh mountain air, head into the town of Livingston Manor for some of the best eats, drinks and shops.
