Swinging Bridge Reservoir is the largest largest lake in the Sullivan Catskills, and one of the few that allows motor boats. You'll feel removed from the city, but still within 20 minutes of groceries and things to do. The neighborhood is a mix of seasonal homes and year round residents. A public boat launch is nearby, and just around the corner are two full services marinas--Starlight and Swinging Bridge Marinas.

Otisville and Port Jervis Metro North Stations are each approximately 30 minutes drive from the house. The trip from NY Penn Station to Otisville is about 2 hours. Train/bus access is great if you have members of your group who need to arrive/depart at different times.

Wonderful

A family weekend getaway that exceeded our expectations. Spacious and open floorplan was absolutely comfortable for 8 adults. Bedrooms were tastefully decorated and beds/bedding were comfortable. The property offers plenty of relaxing options; hot tub, firepit, gameroom, and lounging on the dock all made for a fun and memorable getaway.
We really had a great time everything was as expected the only thing we thought was not so good was that it is a little musty . Can you get rid of the musty smell ? We definitly would like to come again next summer .
Thank you
