About this property
Tiny House on Spectacular Riverfront Property - Private Access to Delaware River
Our private tiny home is on a 1/2 mile of beachfront property along the pristine Upper Delaware River, located on the scenic national byway. The Delaware River Valley runs right between the Catskill and Pocono Mountains. Our quaint hamlet of Barryville, NY offers antique shops, Farmers' market, local restaurants, and is close to other quaint river towns, and Bethel Woods Performing Arts Center, the original Woodstock site.
Cozy, cute, and newly built, with all of the amenities needed to enjoy the beauty of the area in total comfort. This tiny home also offers a loft-style queen bed, and a comfy chair that opens to a single pullout bed in the living area. Outside is a private deck on a manicured lawn with direct access to the unspoiled river. Boating, tubing, fishing, swimming and eagle watching are a few activities you can enjoy right from your backyard. Feel free bring a tent to connect with the river and extend your experience to the outdoors.

Great for time alone, time in Nature, and fun in Bethel Woods.
Spent one whole day hiking the river, and one day relaxing on the river. Saw a great show at Bethel Woods, and also enjoyed the museum. Definitely going back next year.
We had a wonderful time. Our experience was excellent. Great river access, private, the host Julius was very friendly and informative. Great place to relax.
Julius was so friendly and gave us great recommendations. The property was lovely and we enjoyed using the grill and fire pit. The view on the deck was beautiful and we got to see a great sunset. Thanks Julius!
Very nice property with direct access to the river. The tiny house itself is truly just that: very tight accommodations.
Takes a little getting used to, but once we did, we had a very enjoyable stay. The owner/manager is very environmentally-oriented and well-informed and fun to talk with. He pointed out a good spot just downstream on the river that had good smallmouth bass fishing.
I can’t say enough! The house was tiny for sure and very cleverly setup! Equipped with all you need for simple cooking and coffee making. Plus great storage. Very clean!
Being right off of 97 was great—easy to get around and Bethel Woods (Woodstock!) is a nice 25 min drive.
The view of the river is stunning not to mention you get direct access to it from the property.
My dog and I had a blast in the water and watching it flow by.
Julius was fantastic. I was traveling solo and I truly felt like he was looking out for me.
Do not miss this spot if you want a quiet, nature filled getaway. I saw eagles and a bear!
This charming, clean and fun tiny house is not too close and not too far from where my husband and I live in Queens. It's about a 2.5 hour drive through picturesque mountains and winding back roads (must be beautiful in the fall) to get to Julius' quiet and private home on the Delaware River.
We spent two days not doing much at all but cooking, hiking and admiring the view. There's plenty of wildlife to enjoy but it's not too remote. There are a few restaurants, an antique shop, a wine shop, an ice cream parlor and even a kayaking and rafting rental within walking distance.
Our host dropped by twice (lives off the property). Once to welcome us and get us acquainted with the area and once to say goodbye. He was very friendly and helpful but also seemed intent on allowing us to take advantage of the scenery on our own.
I feel like this rental would be a hit in any season. The sound of the river was especially peaceful. We would definitely go back!
Beautfiful property on the river, nice and secluded feeling. The house has everything you could need. A mild smell of a damp dog but otherwise very nice.
Nice place in a very beautiful area. Great soot to jump off from or to just go relax and watch the water flow by. The owner was great and after his initial visit to make sure we were good, he gave us the privacy you'd want.
It was a lovely stay with easy access to the water. I recommend walking to the antique store nearby and consider bringing your own tube and life jacket.
This was our third stay at this property and have enjoyed all of them! It is as advertised: a tiny house. There are plenty of amenities that make for a wonderful, relaxing weekend. We cannot wait to enjoy more time here again in the future.
I spent a weekend with my sister and had a glorious time. The house is cleverly designed with everything you need for a comfortable stay. But who wants to even stay inside with such a glorious river expanse at your footsteps. Wonder was friendly, helpful and responsive. We’d stay again in a heartbeat!
The tiny house was as described and pictured. Close to a main road, but out back was very quiet and private river access was great and what we were looking for, considering the campgrounds and boating places just down the road were packed with people. Bring insect repellent and a fly swatter for bugs, and you should have a great time.
Location A. Accommodations D. Incredible views with bald eagles soaring above but this is less tiny home and more base camp. Anyone with physical limitations this is a NO GO. WiFi is spotty at best and hot water is very limited. It’s all good if you’re there to sleep and use the house as a jump off. Amenities are limited but it’s all depends on what you’re there for. Owner was responsive but the “house” is what it is. Description could be better.
I enjoy my weekend in Barryville. Tiny house was as advertised, but once there I felt it was a bit too small for me - I’ve never been in a tiny home before, so didn’t know what to expect. Definitely not ADA friendly - I’m in fairly good shape, but felt a bit unsteady on the stairs and ladder to the loft especially at night. Overall though, it worked for my needs.
Amazing view on the deck, and expansive lawn area (beside the riverbank) below. Whiled the hot hours away sitting on the rocks in the river, soaking in the sights and fresh air, as the cool currents flowed.
It is indeed a Tiny House, but there were enough appliances to keep your creature comforts - BBQ, a fridge and freezer, microwave, hotplate, toaster/oven, AC, toilet, shower - what more can you ask.
Julius was a lovely host who greeted us upon arrival and told us everything we needed to know about the property and surrounds. Then he pretty much left us to our own devices. He replied to our texts promptly though when we had questions. Perfect.
Had a really wonderful time here.
This trip was hands down our favorite trip we have taken together. Peaceful, quite, with stunning views. The tiny house was all the space we needed to unplug and unwind on the river. Highly highly recommend. We will be back! Thank you Julius
We really enjoyed our stay at the tiny house. You can't beat eating breakfast on the deck in the morning and seeing an eagle fly by, then watching the deer across the river graze on the water's edge. There were lots of things to see and do in the area, we enjoyed a canoe trip, hiking, fishing, and sightseeing. Would recommend this place to anyone looking to relax, and of course anyone who could climb the ladder to the loft to sleep!
Get joyfully lost in nature (plus, a place with a wonderful host!)
My spouse and I stayed at Julius' riverfront tiny house for our anniversary, and couldn't have been happier.
The property is just as it bills itself -- it's a small property with just the essentials (and a few perks, like wifi!), and direct access to the Delaware River along the NY-PA border just north of NJ. The house is incredibly cozy, but the true selling point is the land it occupies. The deck and upper level have a lovely fire pit and sitting area, and just a short walk down some stairs you've got a large plot of land leading right up to the shore of the river. Julius met us when we arrived and walked us through all of this in detail so we knew where to find things around the property.
This alone would have been just plenty, but Julius also inquired about what we wanted to do and made some great food and activity recommendations. We might have missed our two favorite trails (Tusten Mountain and Mongaup River) and one of our favorite meals (Yulan Country Store) had he not shared them with us. For that we were so grateful!
He truly is a wonderful host, and incredibly responsive to messages and questions. That paired with the amazing views and closeness to the natural world makes this a one-of-a-kind place to stay. So if you're not looking for a place with lots of frills and truly want to be lost in the beauty of the Delaware River Valley and Catskills, you can't go wrong here.
This property is fantastic and is just as described. It is a tiny house located in a beautiful spot, very private, and relaxing for a shorter stay. Julius was very helpful and made sure we had everything that we needed when we arrived. Overall it is a better rental for people who plan on spending much of their vacation time outside, on the deck, down on the river, or around the area. It is all laid out clearly in the listing, just read through to decide if it’s the right place for you. We had great weather during our stay and really loved our time there!
