What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Also in Condé Nast Traveler.
This stately clapboard inn has stood on this site since 1880, and accumulated a handful of outbuildings along the way; today, after a thorough 21st-century renovation, it’s part boutique hotel, part mountain resort.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Set in the Great Northern Catskills along the Batavia Kill, the grounds sit minutes from the ski slopes of Windham Mountain.
The rooms
Oak floors, locally crafted furniture, and Carrara marble bathrooms furnish seven restored lodges, many opening onto balconies facing the mountains.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The heated outdoor pool is lined with navy loungers and white umbrellas against a backdrop of the Catskills.
The saunas
Wood-fired cedar barrel saunas sit out on the lawn, looking toward the forested mountain slopes.
Dogs stay too.
Babblers Restaurant & Bar
The dining room and streamside deck serve hearty American comfort food, local beers, and craft cocktails.
At the table
Babblers Bakery pours morning espresso alongside fresh croissants, soft-serve ice cream, and homemade strawberry-rhubarb pie.
How it began
Originally opened in 1880 as the Thompson House Resort, the property operated under family ownership for 140 years before its modern revival.
