Take a unique trip back to the 1970s at Sunbeam Lodge, a 1968-built ranch house tucked away on a quiet country road in a woodland paradise, just 10 minutes off the Taconic Parkway. Flooded with natural light and brimming with character, this 3-bed 2-bath getaway pays homage to its original construction with natural wood-beams and walls, old movie posters, cow-hide rugs, and velvet couches. The lodge is the ideal place for friends and family to disconnect from city life and reconnect with each other over good food and good times. Guests will feel completely at home cooking meals in the open chef’s kitchen, sneaking off to the music nook when inspiration hits, or kicking back outside at the cabana bar, but not before dipping into the saltwater pool, sauna, and hot tub. With 50 acres of secluded forest and grounds to explore, the requisite walk through the woods is a literal hop, skip, and jump away. So is the yoga studio and artist’s studio. End a perfect day by watching the sunset at the gazebo next to the private pond, or on colder nights, stargazing from the Adirondack chairs around the fire pit. Three sunny, airy bedrooms, each with a dreamy king or queen bed topped with down comforters will feel like the greatest place to crash after a long-drawn day of leisure. Conveniently located 20 minutes from Hudson’s Warren Street shops, restaurants, bars, and galleries, however, Sunbeam Lodge is a special find and likely where you'll want to be all weekend long.

Set along a mountain stream in Eldred, New York, Little River is an environmentally-friendly log cabin offering exceptional comfort in an unusually private and rustic setting. Boasting two bedrooms and a lofted area with a connected catwalk, the 1,100 square-foot cabin is a natural retreat to recharge the batteries, perfect for up to six guests who are looking to mellow out or work uninterruptedly for a little while. Step back in time for a true Catskills experience that mixes the charm of yesteryear with vintage Danish, Mexican and American mid-century furniture pieces, lighting and natural textiles with today's modern amenities like a streaming-ready TV room, fully-equipped kitchen with induction stove and dishwasher, geothermal central heat and AC, and lightning-fast internet speeds. There are two beds in total, one queen size and one king, both with Casper mattresses and the promise of a sound sleep as well as a pull out sofa in the loft. At Little River, meditative moments will abound, from watching the wildlife roam from the front porch, to snuggling up with a good book by the wood-burning fireplace, to sneaking away to the Parachute-stocked bathroom for a soak in the deep Waterworks tub. We suggest keeping the door and windows open for an amazing soundscape. When the weather is fine, hit up the Barryville Farmers Market for the best local food and produce, come back and cook with reckless abandon, then head creekside for a long table meal followed by a fun hang around the firepit.
