Secluded Lakefront Retreat with Art Studio and Stunning Views | House in Otego
3 Bedroom House in Otego
Set in a secluded and beautiful corner of the Catskills, this lakefront home offers a rare balance of privacy, comfort, thoughtful design, and creative energy. Guests consistently describe their stay as peaceful, inspiring, and deeply restorative — "a place where time slows and the outside world fades away".
The house is filled with original sculptures and artwork by my father, the late artist Dennis Stahl. This is more than a place to stay; it is a unique environment to live in for a while. Many guests mention how meaningful it feels to be surrounded by art, books, and views that invite reflection and creativity.
Every space in the home is designed to feel warm, comfortable, and easy to live in. Large windows frame lake and nature views throughout the house. Guests frequently comment on the exceptional comfort of the beds, the peaceful sounds of nature, and how well they sleep here.
The basement includes a dedicated artist’s studio, a special space guests enjoy creating.
The kitchen is well equipped for relaxed, longer stays, with quality cookware, essential tools, and a comfortable dining area for shared meals. Reliable Wi-Fi and thoughtful details throughout the home make it easy to arrive, settle in, and feel at home right away.
Outside, our secluded property offers a private lake with koi, peaceful woods and trails, a fire pit, BBQ and 2 decks. Guests often say their favorite moments are the simplest ones — quiet mornings, starry nights, and sitting with a book while looking out over the water.
Despite the feeling of total privacy, the location is convenient.
