INNESS
Tucked between the Catskill and Shawangunk mountain ranges in Accord, New York, INNESS is a 220-acre retreat where meticulous design and rugged natural beauty meet in harmony. Conceived by Taavo Somer and brought to life with Post Company and landscape designer Miranda Brooks, the property blends Scandinavian restraint with rustic Americana to create a calm, design-forward environment rooted in the rhythms of the land. With 28 standalone cabins, a 12-room farmhouse, gathering spaces, and sweeping views in every direction, INNESS offers an atmosphere that feels both expansive and intimate.
At the center of the experience is The Restaurant at INNESS, where Chef Gabriel Salazar brings a Mediterranean-inspired menu shaped by his global culinary background. Trained in Venezuela, refined in the Basque region’s three-Michelin-starred kitchens, and seasoned through years in celebrated New York restaurants, Chef Salazar’s cooking emphasizes open-fire techniques, seasonal produce, and locally sourced ingredients. His dishes—like Brie du Pommier with za’atar and whipped local honey, roasted squash and halloumi with romesco, and dry-aged New York strip with béarnaise—pair rustic simplicity with technical finesse, offering a dining experience that mirrors the resort’s blend of elegance and ease.
The Restaurant at INNESS is featured in our list of Finest Wine Lists of the Hudson Valley.
Across the property, INNESS extends this ethos of understated luxury and connection to nature. Guests can slow down at the saltwater pools, play a round on the King Collins–designed nine-hole golf course, take in sunset cocktails overlooking the mountains, or explore meadows and trails shaped by Brooks’s thoughtful landscape design. A spa and fitness studio, tennis courts, and a members’ club add to the sense of retreat, while the minimalist cabins and farmhouse echo the property’s signature balance of refinement and rural warmth. Whether for a restorative weekend or a long summer escape, INNESS offers a place to breathe deeply, reconnect, and feel quietly at home.
