I’m looking to go to a spend the summer in the Catskills. I’ve never done this before. Where do I start?
I’m looking for a chassidish crowd. Somewhat similar to Golden Hills /Nachlei Emunah.
I want nicer bungalows and grounds.
A place that has an established day camp for my dchildren.
I also want a place that’s walking distance to town.
Which place would you recommend?
Any information is appreciated.

Golden hills is walking distance to town. But the bungalows aren’t nice. Honestly, what you’re looking for doesn’t exist. If you want to rent something nice, it’s going to be in a place like willow woods which is not very bungalow colonyish. And is not walking distance town. In general, most places are not walking distance. Unless you want to walk about 45 minutes...

Thanks for your response. Is there no place with nicer bungalows? Or nicer grounds? I’m sure there’s got to be. I don’t mind a “nicer place”. I just still want my kids to run free and have friends.

Thanks. It’s not the groceries I’m concerned about. And it doesn’t need to be near a “kosher” kind of town. A strip with a dollar store and some others would also be great. I just need a place where I can escape and air out. I’m getting a little nervous of being gated in for the summer without the option of running off if need be.

Candlewood cottages is across the road from Walmart with decent bungalows and directly across from Miami Cottages which has the day camp.
Small colony, decent bungalows mixed chassidish crowd and mixed age groups.
It’s all owned, but a lot are rented out by owner.

For example there a place right across Walmart called cottages or something. I think they have nice grounds. But the people there all own they’re units.

Thanks. I see we cross posted. That’s what I meant.
Is Miami the same type f crowd?
How do I find out if someone is looking to rent theirs out?

Miami is similar crowd, not sure what the grounds look like. Some of Miami is also owned, which are usually nicer bungalows.
They put ads out in the papers or it’s word of mouth if you know someone there.
Down anawana lake road is Forest Park, new owned two floor homes. There are actually some other colonies off that road, sorry don’t know the names.

I can think of one place. Park garden estates. But there is only one or two bungalows to tent. But the crowd is in their fifties. Any young people there,are their kids and grandkids. In general, if you want your kids to run around then you need to rent a dumpy place or buy in a small place.

Ummm... just because Sunray cottages is in the vicinity of Cutlers doesn't equal dump 🤔 Did you ever see Sunray cottages??? They have absolutely gorgeous grounds... I only referenced Cutlers as a landmark location and convenience as far as grocery is concerned...

Lake Forest and Laurel Ledge and Alpine Acres usually advertise summer homes for rent closer to the summer.
Eta: I just noticed you wrote walking distance to town... I'm not sure that they fit your criteria.

Op, the best way to find something is looking at ads in the papers.
