SECLUSION, NATURE AND CULINARY GEMS
Located only two hours from New York City and twenty minutes to Woodstock, the cabin is located on a quiet road, on a private driveway, within the budding town of Kerhonkson (also known as Kerhampton).
Nature enthusiasts should consider the 4.6 mile Overlook Mountain trail, one of best spots in the Catskills, or the Big Deep, a semi-secret swimming hole near the home, both near the home.
A bit farther out, there is Minnewaska State Park, a 22,275-acre preserve located on the Shawangunk Ridge, beloved for its picnicking, hiking, mountain biking, snowshoeing and swimming. Other great day and nature trips are Woodstock Farm Sanctuary and Esopus Creek.
Devoted art lovers from New York City have surely made the pilgrimage to Storm King Art Center, an open-air museum located in Mountainville with a fantastic collection of contemporary outdoor sculptures. Also worth a visit is Opus 40, a large environmental sculpture in Saugerties, on over 6.5 acres of bluestone quarry.
To get a taste of the local art and farm community, visit the Woodstock flea market (every Saturday and Sunday) or the Woodstock Farm Festival (Wednesdays only).
Woodstock and Hudson Valley are also attracting exceptional culinary and hospitality talent these days. A few of the owner’s favorites are Shindig, Cucina and Phoenicia Diner.
