Woodstock Apartment | Rock City Writer’s Studio: Historic Nordic Sauna Walk to town!

1 Bedroom Apartment in Woodstock

Treat yourself to a relaxing, rejuvenating, and inspiring retreat in your own private historic studio cottage in the heart of Stonecrop, the estate owned by Anita M. Smith — renowned writer, artist, historian, and “Herb Lady of the Catskills.”
Nestled at the gateway to Woodstock’s legendary Overlook Mountain, Rock City Writer’s Studio offers an authentic, nature-immersed Catskills experience best suited to guests who appreciate rustic charm, artistic character, and the outdoors. Walking distance (just over 1/2 mile) to the Woodstock Village Green, you’ll find galleries, boutiques, restaurants, and cafés nearby — or simply stay home and relax in your bucolic retreat surrounded by gardens, wildlife, and the natural beauty of the Catskills.
Prepare snacks and meals in your well-equipped kitchenette featuring a 2-burner electric range, full refrigerator, microwave, and other small appliances. Enjoy meals at the kitchen café table, on the screened bluestone porch, or outdoors at the bluestone garden table with gas grill surrounded by gardens.
Unwind in your private Nordic sauna for two, followed by a shower beneath the skylight in the cottage’s unique kitchen bath area.
STUDIO LIVING ROOM & COMFORT SLEEPER SOFA
The living room converts into a cozy bedroom at night and features a premium American Leather Comfort Sleeper that opens effortlessly into a luxurious queen bed with a solid platform design and high-density foam mattress dressed in luxury linens for a restful night’s sleep.
Often described as a “non-sofabed,” the Comfort Sleeper is exceptionally comfortable and easy to operate.
For guests who prefer an even softer sleep surface, a plush mattress topper is also available upon request.
The living room also features a 32” flat-screen HDTV with cable service and Blu-Ray player, as well as an extensive collection of books and DVDs. Additional amenities include spa towels and robes, Wi-Fi, and private parking.
NEW HEATING SYSTEM
We are also thrilled to announce that we have replaced and upgraded our winter heating system! In response to feedback we received from guests about a “ticking" sound when the elements/coils in the old system were heating/expanding (an unfortunate characteristic of baseboard heat), we have installed a new hydronic system that is not only highly-efficient and environmentally-friendly, but also "whisper-quiet". The new heater is very responsive and effective at quickly heating the studio and maintaining any temperature you choose, while not making a single sound. And for guests who have trouble sleeping in absolute silence, we have installed a white noise generator to provide background noise.
PETS
Well-behaved and crate-trained dogs are considered ~ please ask. Please note that dogs must be crated when left alone in the cottage, and leashed when outdoors. A $100/week pet fee per dog applies.
CANCELLATIONS
Cancellations that are made more than sixty days prior to the arrival date will receive a full refund. Cancellations that are made between thirty and sixty days in advance of the arrival date will receive a 50% refund. Cancellations that are made less than 30 days prior to check-in forfeit the full payment. Early departure does not warrant any refund of rent. Refunds will not be given due to weather or road conditions.
TRAVEL INSURANCE
If you think there's any chance that you may need to cancel your reservation, we strongly suggest that you consider purchasing travel insurance to protect your trip. Thank you!
