A Guide to Livingston Manor, NY
In Sullivan County, 100 miles from New York City, Livingston Manor describes itself as "a small town with a big yard.” In 2019, Condé Nast declared it the “Catskills’ Newest Hotspot." Through the two descriptions sound pretty far apart, as Livingston Manor locals with some authority – we agree with both.
These Upstate Airbnbs & Hotels With Saunas Are Perfect For Fall & Winter
Autumn is officially here, and with it, temperatures that mean crisp air, days spent hiking, and meals by the fireplace. With its mountainous landscapes, colorful fall foliage and bonfire-opportunities-aplenty, Upstate lends itself well to the season, and the return of all things “cozy”. And what's cozier than a sauna? The Nordic know a thing or two about cozy. According to Wikipedia, in Finland, "sauna is an important part of the national identity. Those who have the opportunity usually take a sauna at least once a week." And then it drops this gem: "The traditional sauna day is Saturday." We can definitely get on board with Sauna Saturdays, and we think you should too. For the love of saunas, we’ve compiled a list of some hotels & Airbnbs with extraordinary setups in which to get scorched — whether it’s creekside, inside, has room for a party, or boasts an incredible mountain view. Parkson Schoolhouse in Livingston Manor, NY Photo: Escape Brooklyn This beautiful two-bedroom upstate Airbnb with a sauna, Parkston Schoolhouse, was once a one-room schoolhouse! Built in 1870, the Parkston Schoolhouse served all grade levels in the Livingston Manor area. More recently, it was converted to a cozy cottage getaway, complete with a wood-burning sauna in the woods. In the town Escape calls home, check our Escape Brooklyn Feature on Parkston Schoolhouse for local recommendations like hiking, dining, shopping and more. Location: 120 miles from NYC in Livingston Manor, NY. Of note: Just down the road from one of our favorite hiking trail systems in the Catskills, Willowemoc Wild Forest. Rowley House in Eldred, NY Photo: Escape Brooklyn This three bedroom upstate Airbnb with a sauna is the list's only indoor sauna, perfect for deep winter.

Seminary Hill in Callicoon, NY: Orchard, Tasting Room, Cidery and Boutique Hotel
120 miles from NYC, Seminary Hill is many things: an orchard, with more than more than 60 varieties and 1,500 trees on 12 acres; an eco-friendly cidery meeting PassivHaus standards; a tasting room and restaurant where ciders are paired with fresh, local food; and an enchanting boutique hotel, with 17 units across eight apartments. Proudly local and sustainable, Seminary Hill’s cidery and tasting room is perched atop one of the highest hills in Callicoon, NY. Its picturesque views overlook the former St. Joseph’s seminary, the Delaware River, and nearby Pennsylvania — the combination of which makes for a most spectacular setting to grab a drink or bite while watching the sunset. The ciders are delicious and complex; all lean toward the drier (read: crisper and better) side of the spectrum. Should you get carried away drinking in all the fun, just down the hill from the orchard and closer to town, Seminary Hill's Boarding House is the perfect spot to call home for the weekend. Seventeen rooms are housed across eight apartments in two buildings — one a former hospital from the 1930's, and the other a doctor's office from the 1870's. The buildings were renovated under the direction of local design studio Homestedt, whose Shaker-inspired vision for the Boarding House means simple yet chic, totally cozy rooms — each with private bathrooms, many with restored vintage claw foot tubs, and all with complimentary luxury bath amenities. Like the boarding houses of old, there are some shared spaces for guests, including the lobby/living room stocked with books and cozy couches, and a kitchen where guests are welcome to cook themselves a meal, or enjoy the breakfast buffet. Should you fall in love with the vibe — and you will — design studio Homestedt's nearby shop is filled with many of the housewares, sheets, and toiletries you'll find at Seminary Hill Boarding House. Ready to plan a trip? Read on for our recommendations, including what to do in Callicoon, NY — from where to shop, hike, and get outside – plus the best places to eat or grab a drink. What to Do: Shopping and Exploring the Delaware River town of Callicoon, NY The historic Callicoon Theater, which is listed on National Historic Registry, hosts one screen, 350 seats, a decked out surround sound system and a fully upgraded digital projection system for a quality viewing experience. Photo: Jerry Cohen. As of late, it could be argued that this Delaware River town is the liveliest of them all. With the cidery, a distillery, a gem of a movie theater, excellent shopping, the region's most esteemed farmers' market (on Sundays), plus its own natural wine shop and bar — there’s plenty to do. Along Main Street, Callicoon’s main thoroughfare (split into Upper and Lower Main Street) visitors will find a great selection of places to shop and enjoy. Visit the many antique shops in town, including the aptly ...
A Guide to Roscoe, NY
Approximately 120 miles from NYC, the town of Roscoe has earned its place on the map for attracting anglers from around the globe. The town, affectionately dubbed Trout Town USA, is renowned for its plentitude of streams, lakes and reservoirs – abundant with trout – that wind their way through its sprawling forests. Roscoe is home to many notable residents, including the Two Headed Trout – who, legend has it, long ago made its home in the Junction Pool (where the famous Beaverkill River and Willowemoc Creek meet). Unable to decide which river to live in, this fabled fish sprouted a second head to face both rivers forever. Beyond its fishy fame, however, Roscoe reels in throngs of visitors for more than what its pristine waters promise. Check out our guides below for the best places to explore, eat and drink - plus, where to stay during your visit to this lively locale.
