We have several family-friendly activities on our calender of events, including Fairy Door workshops and Pebble Painting. We also have pickleball courts, a swimming pool, weekend campfires, and more.

Tip 3: Research Various Adventures

While the Catskills are known for incredible outdoor adventures, there’s so much more to do and see. This is why we recommend researching different types of activities and attractions that appeal to a wide range of interests. Set off with a Rail Explorers guide to pedal along rails that run alongside Esopus Creek or explore some of the year-round fun at Belleayre Mountain, such as skiing and hiking. See what’s on stage at the Phoenicia Playhouse, or learn about area history by visiting the Senate House State Historic Site.
