New Yorkers and East Coasters, it’s that time of year again—sweltering, sticky summer days and nights, prompting dreams of escape from the devilish heat. For those seeking a rejuvenating break away from the typical beach towns like Montauk and Nantucket, the forested Catskills region in Upstate New York beckons.
Just a two-hour drive from bustling New York City, Minnewaska Hus is a gem waiting to be discovered. Built from the ground up, this Scandinavian-style cabin offers more than just a cabin—it provides an upscale retreat that seamlessly combines Feng Shui principles with a cozy ambiance. With three minimalist bedrooms, two refreshed bathrooms, and a fully equipped kitchen, it accommodates up to seven guests.
A sleek black wood exterior and cooling monochromatic interiors create an elevated mountain house experience. Its expansive A-frame living room, with floor-to-ceiling windows and concrete flooring, floods the cream, black, and gray-themed quarters with abundant sunlight.
Guestrooms feature minimalist decor and plush bed linens for a comfortable night’s sleep. En suite bathrooms boast contemporary dark-green tiled rain showers and freestanding bathtubs with nature views. Families will appreciate accommodations tailored to their needs, including a room with bunk beds connected to a children’s playroom equipped with board games, toys, and a TV.
When in the mood for the great outdoors, head to the patio to unwind and soak in the serene environment. Despite its remote setting, with private rail trail access perfect for clearing the mind, lively amenities are just a short walk away. Enjoy the convenience of Mill & Main café and Flying Goose restaurant nearby, and explore Minnewaska State Park, only 5 minutes away, for even more adventure.
Starting nightly rate is $275 per night.
