Three Adirondack Getaways to Book This Autumn
Sure, the Catskills are closer – but have you even Adirondacked? At six million acres large, the Adirondack Mountains are the largest protected natural area in the lower 48 states. The park is bigger than the Yellowstone, Everglades, Glacier, and Grand Canyon National Park combined — and it’s right in our backyard! Many New Yorkers think the Adirondacks are too far for a weekend; but the park begins just 215 miles from NYC, easily reached in under four hours. (Or catch the daily flight from JFK to SLK!) Enthusiasts of all hobbies and skill levels can hike extraordinary trails, canoe breathtaking ponds and lakes – or spend days traversing the cultural offerings of the region's shopping, food and breweries. Below, we're sharing three favorite Adirondack getaways to call home base while exploring this expansive wilderness. After each summary, check out the expanded version of each guide in the links below, with our favorite hikes and outdoor activities, where to eat and drink, and what to expect at each authentic Adirondack lodge. Great Camp Sagamore: Raquette Lake, NY The Stay: Classic Adirondack lodge rooms in the main building, plus private lakefront cabins, share larger shared spaces including a stunning lakeside dining hall – where guests are served three meals a day. The Property: An all-inclusive rate grants access to trails, watercraft including canoes and kayaks, property tours, short guided hikes, bowling and more at this iconic Adirondack Great Camp. The main lodge hosts nightly fires in its massive living room where guests can recap their adventures, or hang by the many outdoor fire pits. The Guests: Several hiking trails on the shorter side, tons of programming, and three family-style meals a day in its dining room, make this our pick for families to spend time exploring the Adirondacks. For a deeper dive, check out the Escape Brooklyn Guide to Great Camp Sagamore. White Pine Camp: Paul Smiths, NY The Stay: Thirteen distinctively cozy cabins and cottages feature soaring roof lines, hand-built Adirondack style furniture, stone fireplaces or wood stoves, and breathtaking views. The Property: Trails through the property are perfect for leisurely strolls, while swimming, fishing, and boating on Osgood Pond lets guests take in the serenity of the Adirondacks just steps from their cabin’s door. All guests have unlimited access to shared facilities at White Pine Camp: including a Great Room, equipped with WiFi; a Japanese Tea House on a tiny island accessed by a 300-foot wooden bridge; hand-set bowling alley and pool room; a boat house with kayaks, canoes and rowboats for guest use; and many outdoor decks and patios. The Guests: This property is great for the casual explorer and couples: it's light on on-site hiking trails, but close to many – and favors the many water adventures to be had onsite. Bringing your own food and drinks might save you some dough, plus you can eat on your own schedule. For a deeper dive, check out the Escape Brooklyn ...
Guide to North Branch, NY
Nestled in the bucolic heart of the Catskills, North Branch, New York, is a small hamlet renowned for its picturesque landscapes and historic charm. With a population hovering around a few hundred, North Branch is characterized by its historic homes, perfectly patinated storefronts, rolling farmland, and the gentle flow of the East Branch of the Delaware River. Though the hamlet – yes, we said "hamlet" – is by definition tiny, North Branch is central to some of our other favorite towns, including Callicoon, Roscoe, and Livingston Manor – there's no lack of things to do or see in the area. (Unless of course, you want to do nothing, which is welcome here too.)
The Leeway in Mt. Tremper, NY
Just over two hours from Manhattan, The Leeway is a picturesque, nine-room boutique motel in Mt. Tremper, NY. Previously Kate’s Lazy Meadow, the iconic hotel kept many of the charming details that made Kate’s so special, while a much-needed facelift brought its three buildings up to modern speed. The result is a one-of-a-kind Catskills experience, blending nature & camp vibes with sophisticated mid-century & modern design. The crown gem is the riverfront area, accessed through a narrow tunnel of flora and fauna — where guests enjoy private Esopus Creek frontage with breathtaking mountain views. This magical area ringed by tall mountains and towering pine trees serves as Leeway’s social hub, with picnic tables, grills, Adirondack chairs, and a bonfire area with benches for guests. A large, sunny opening by the river is the ideal spot to spend days dipping in the river, bird watching, sun bathing, reading, playing fetch with the dog, or fly fishing. While you're in town, make use of your proximity to Kingston, Phoenicia, and Woodstock. Musically inclined guests should check out calendars at Levon Helm Barn (legendary!), Bearsville Theater, and Kingston's Tubby's – all of which get great shows. Other nearby cultural attractions include outdoor sculpture park Opus 40 or Woodstock's Center for Photography. Explore the Outdoors: the Best Hikes Around Mt. Tremper (and Other Outdoor Adventures) Views from the Ashokan Quarry Trail in Olivebridge, NY. Photo by Escape Brooklyn. For those seeking outdoor adventure, there’s no shortage of hikes and outdoor recreation in the area. One of our all-time favorite hikes is the nearby Overlook Mountain in Woodstock. About ten minutes from Main Street Woodstock, this 4.5 mile loop takes about three hours round-trip, with some time added in at the top for sight-seeing at the top. Features include a fire tower with 360º views (one of six in the region), and ruins from a grand mountaintop hotel that burned down (several times) to explore. Heads up: this popular trail is pretty well known; adjust your expectations and schedule accordingly, getting there early for parking and avoiding the crowds. Also, come prepared: it’s no short stroll in the woods! Come prepared with proper footwear, and bring plenty of water. A lesser known trail with similar views is Mt. Tremper Fire Tower, whose six-mile trek also offers stunning 360º views from its own fire tower. Also nearby is the Ashokan Quarry Trail, a short 2 mile trail with incredible mountain overlooks. For a flat-surface trail with views – great for walking, running or biking – head to the Ashokan Reservoir Promenade. This no-car paved road is beautiful at any time of day, but especially at sunset. Last, guests can and should try their hand at fly-fishing. Most people don't realize (especially non-fishermen and women) that the Catskills was the birthplace of American dry fly fishing – and is known around the world for it. This spring and fall sport ...
Spectacular Stays on The Water
One of the best things about August in the Catskills is that it slowly eases us out of the hot, humid summers and into autumn. With fall foliage season fast approaching, we’re sharing some of our favorite Upstate getaways on the water to help you bridge that late-summer-early-fall gap.This list features lakeside cabins, treehouse cottages, and riverside hotels, all of which are the perfect spots to enjoy the water in the morning and a bonfire (or drink in town) in the evening.

Salvato Mill in Salt Point, NY Photos: Salvato Mill Two hours north of NYC in Salt Point, NY, the charming and ultra-unique Salvato Mill is an 18th century mill reimagined as an idyllic escape. Inside, the mansion is filled with a mix of antiques and mid-century modern furniture and decor. With a large living room centered around a fireplace that flows into a dining room with a 10-person table, the living areas are perfect for entertaining. Outside, there is a multi-level patio with a dining table and stainless steel glass grill, perfect for late summer evenings. The building features classic touches from its days as a functioning mill, including a waterfall that flows through the building and into the creek below. In addition to exploring the 11-acre property, relaxing on the patio, or gathering in the stone courtyard, guests can also enjoy the creek through the summer. This Design Forward Home Features The Most Surreal Outdoor Space Salvato Mill has an expansive history – its use as a gristmill and sawmill dates to the 1750’s. After stints as a cotton mill, cider mill, and even a button factory, the original mill burned down; its remains are still present, creating a surreal outdoor space where guests can dine and enjoy cocktails to the sound of rushing water Two Good Cabins in Roscoe, NY Photos: Clay Banks These Two Good Cabins, located on the peaceful, non-motorized Lake Muskoday, serve as the ideal getaway for those looking to live out their lakeside dreams. The cabins—one a spacious chalet, one a quaint guesthouse—are connected by a large wraparound deck, making it easy to move around the property. The deck also features an outdoor dining and grilling area that looks out onto the lake, with enough space for guests in both cabins to enjoy a shared meal outside. Guest perks include a pontoon boat, stand-up paddle boards, and kayaks, and the non-motorized lake is perfect for a relaxing swim (or float). For those looking to enjoy the lake views without getting in the water, the grounds have plenty of space for lawn games, relaxing around the fire, or lounging ...

An Abandoned Cider Mill Gets a New Life. Before & After: North Branch Cider Mill in North Branch, NY
A husband and wife team – serial renovators and home builders – take on their biggest project yet: an abandoned cider mill. "A charming, historic, mess." That's how Tom Roberts describes the condition – and the irresitable allure – of the North Branch Cider Mill when he and his wife Anna Åberg were passed the torch in late 2022. “It wasn’t for sale, but it wasn’t in use. So we pestered the owner for 18 months until he sold it to us.” Fast forward to nearly a year since its re-opening in November 2023: an incredible amount of work has been done, made possible by the colossal vision and talent from their parent company/design studio, Homestedt. Its charming and historic parts remain, but this diamond in the rough has been polished back to its original glory. Below, Escape Brooklyn interviews the design-savvy duo who share stories from the renovation, plus give us the scoop on future plans at the North Branch Cider Mill.
