Frances McDormand has always been a favorite of mine and I plan on going tonight at 7pm. Come out and support the little theatre in Woodstock that keeps bringing us quality movies each week!
The snow is melting not nearly as quickly as it came, but now that ski season is on its way out spring flowers are ready to pop out!
We have some fun things coming up in the spring. It may be a little too soon to jump into the Esopus and travel down on tubes with Town Tinker Tubing http://www.towntinker.com/but the hiking trails have started to shed their slippery sheath so a good winding may be in order.
You can try one of my favorite hikes up http://www.catskillcenter.org/towers/overlook.html to the Woodstock Overlook Mountain Fire Tower, and the views are to die for. And if you aren't afraid of heights climbing the tower is a real treat. Make sure you get to the end of the trail and not just to the Overlook Mountain House ruins. You'll find a rock ledge with carvings from nearly 100 years ago...ancient graffiti!
If you've got the energy, going it several miles further will put you at your own private lake (okay not 100% private, but what do you want?), Echo Lake.
There are also easier trails in Wilson State Park off of Wittenberg Road and at the end of Mink Hollow Road (off of Rt 212 in the Lake Hill part of Woodstock) as well as in Mount Tremper where Woodstock meet Phoenicia. The last hike has more narrow trails but amazing views nonetheless!
Enjoy!

Every purchase is a new investment and we want to be the team to unearth the right opportunity for you & associate it with the right financing option. www.TheMachreeGroup.com
Born and raised in Southern California, Cree started her career in public service and housing during her undergraduate studies. She lived/worked in Xicotencatl, Mexico with local families learning about their culture and building temporary housing. After returning she volunteered on a South Central housing coalition and in local homeless shelter.
While continuing her volunteering she worked with high-risk youth in Hollywood helping them come up with life solutions as well providing shelter at our center.
She was granted a scholarship from NYU in the Wagner School of Public Service, where she received my Master's in Urban Planning and concurrently a Master's in Real Estate.
She assisted high-end business and entertainment industry clients in their purchases/negotiations of real estate. After their offices in the WTC were shut down, she shifted gears and started The Machree Group, combining extensive knowledge of real estate investment, design, new construction and renovation.
Today, Cree and the staff of The Machree Group dedicate themselves to real estate education as much as they do to helping you find the right home or investment for your family.
At The Machree Group, you will find a wide range of services from vacation rentals, vacation home purchases, how to buy land and build your dreamhouse and much more!
Several of our clients who were taught how to purchase vacation rental investment properties were featured in the November 25, 2005 issue of The New York Times Real Estate Section: Buying a Vacation Home as an Investment. Additionally, our properties have been featured on The Learning Channel's "Family Reunion - Woodstock", New York Magazine, The New York Times, and Fine Living Television.
We specialize in teaching our clients how to buy properties in New York to suit their lifestyle, whether it be for investment or personal use. Our team of Ulster County and Brooklyn, New York real estate coaches can help you find exactly what you need.
We don't just find you the right property, we find you the best property for your lifestyle and budget. Once we identfy the right property we can set you up with the right financing through our database of grants programs, non-profit based financing or creative financing programs.
Your success is our success...and we love looking good!

"Thanks to you I bought and sold 2 homes and am also thinking about a 3rd investment - but not without your guidance!" -Kris Carr http://www.crazysexycancer.com/
"Cree helped me purchase a fixer upper home in Accord, NY with no money down and my husband and I walked away with $80k at closing. We subdivided, sold the house and land and walked away with $60k more less than two years later. We are currently searching with her for our next investment." V. Ashton and T. Ryan (Brooklyn, NY)
"I am used to NYC real estate brokers who make you feel guilty for not having big bucks to spend on a home, and as my budget is no more than $60,000 for a small cottage, I was a little embarrassed to ask for so much assistance. I was delighted that the agents at Barqua Real Estate treat me as if I were purchasing a million dollar home, and who knows, maybe one day I will...with them!" Mary Darcy (Upper West Side, NY)
