Wildflower Farms - Auberge Resorts Collection
Set on 140 scenic acres in Gardiner, New York, Wildflower Farms, Auberge Resorts Collection, is a nature-forward retreat that redefines luxury through simplicity, sustainability, and immersive design. Just a short drive from New York City, the property features 65 freestanding cabins and cottages nestled among meadows and woodlands, with sweeping views of the Shawangunk Ridge. The experience begins at the Great Porch, a communal gathering space with an open-air firepit, and extends across miles of trails, curated farm experiences, and a 6-acre working farm that supplies much of the hotel’s culinary program.
At the heart of the resort is Clay, the destination restaurant that draws in both guests and locals with its inventive, seasonal menus. Executive sous chef Kyle Chandler and farm director Will Conway collaborate daily to craft dishes using freshly harvested produce, creating a true farm-to-table experience. From shared plates to open-fire entrees, each dish is a celebration of the land. Guests can also enjoy light bites on the Great Porch, sip seasonal cocktails at the Dew Bar by the pool, or participate in hands-on culinary workshops hosted at the farm’s Maplehouse education center.
For rest and renewal, Thistle Spa offers a serene wellness experience rooted in the surrounding environment. Guests can unwind with treatments that incorporate botanicals grown onsite, enjoy a soak in the indoor saltwater pool, or relax in the sauna and steam room. Outdoor wellness offerings include forest bathing, sunrise yoga, and a seasonal outdoor pool with views of the surrounding hills. Whether savoring a chef-led farm lunch, floating in the spa’s tranquil waters, or simply watching the sunset from a private deck, Wildflower Farms invites guests to slow down, connect with nature, and return to themselves.
Wm. Farmer and Sons Hotel
Wm. Farmer and Sons offers a distinctive lodging experience in the heart of Hudson, NY. Whether for a romantic getaway, a family trip, or an extended stay, the property features a variety of thoughtfully designed accommodations, as well as the Wm. Farmer and Sons Restaurant and Barroom. The historic Merchant House next door boasts four uniquely styled guest rooms, a private dining room, and a serene garden, while the grand 1830s Mansard-style main building houses seven elegant rooms and suites, each named after a beloved Farmer family member.
For guests seeking more space, Wm. Farmer and Sons also offers four annexed suites‚ The Pint, The Half Pint, The Imperial, and The Schooner, perfect for families or longer stays. These suites provide a modern touch while maintaining the warm, inviting atmosphere that defines the property.

Woodstock Way Hotel
Tucked along Tinker Street in the heart of Woodstock, the Woodstock Way Hotel captures the town’s creative pulse with a free-spirited, eco-luxe retreat surrounded by nature. Set beside a cascading waterfall, the property feels like a modern-day treehouse village — a peaceful refuge that remains just steps from the energy of Woodstock’s shops, restaurants, and music venues. Designed for dreamers and seekers alike, it blends raw natural beauty with refined comfort, inviting guests to slow down and reconnect with the landscape that has inspired generations of artists, musicians, and wanderers.
Each accommodation at Woodstock Way tells its own story, from cozy creekside nooks to expansive suites and family-friendly residences. Artist-curated vinyl collections, private decks, and floor-to-ceiling windows bring the spirit of the Catskills indoors, while reclaimed wood, living roof systems, and low-impact materials express the hotel’s commitment to sustainability. Winner of the 2022 AIA Westchester + Hudson Valley Chapter Design Awards, the property’s design by Brad Will of Ashokan Architecture & Planning celebrates thoughtful integration with its natural surroundings — a reflection of both the region’s heritage and its enduring connection to renewal.
A sister property, the Kingston Carriage House, extends the same ethos of design and comfort just a short drive away. Housed in a meticulously restored nineteenth-century building, it pairs historic character with contemporary elegance. Eight distinct guest suites — from spacious first-floor retreats to airy lofts — feature luxurious linens, handwoven robes, and access to the tranquil garden courtyard and Captain’s Lounge. Together, Woodstock Way Hotel and Kingston Carriage House offer two distinct yet kindred escapes, each rooted in a sense of place and a spirit of creative restoration.
Wylder Hotel Windham
Wylder Windham brings a fresh spirit to one of the Catskills’ most storied destinations. Set on 20 acres along the Batavia Kill River, the resort blends 140 years of history with a modern, family-friendly vibe that feels instantly nostalgic. Seven restored lodges—ranging from Victorian gems to more contemporary retreats—offer a mix of suites, lofts, streamside rooms, and mountain-view hideaways, each outfitted with warm wood floors, custom furnishings, and breezy balconies that open to the sights and sounds of Windham Mountain. For groups, the four-bedroom Farmhouse delivers the full “upstate gathering” fantasy, complete with a big kitchen, roomy common spaces, and the convenience of housekeeping and priority reservations at Babblers.
The experience here is very much about stepping into the rhythm of the Catskills. Days might start with coffee and a slice of Babblers Bakery’s legendary strawberry rhubarb pie, followed by creekside lounging in a hammock, a wood-fired sauna session, or a round of pickleball. The river practically invites tubing, while the nearby trails and Windham Mountain keep outdoor lovers busy year-round. Evenings bring fire pits, stargazing, and the easy camaraderie that comes from a place designed for both relaxation and a bit of adventure.
What sets Wylder Windham apart is how effortlessly it bridges past and present. Once known as the Thompson House Resort—a local legend for nearly 140 years—the property has been thoughtfully reimagined without losing its soul. It still feels like summer camp for grownups, just with better cocktails, a heated pool, and a vintage Land Rover ready to shuttle you into town or up to the slopes. Whether you're escaping for a cozy winter weekend or stretching out summer by the creek, Wylder captures the timeless charm of the Catskills for a new generation of explorers.
