Escape the city for some me-time in the Catskills with these awesome Airbnbs Written by Juliet Izon Contributors Rosemary Waugh ,Rhys Thomas,Ed Cunningham,Alex Floyd-Douglass & Camila Karalyte Friday February 24 2023 We'll always be NYC's biggest cheerleaders, why wouldn't we be? The city has it all! But everyone needs a breather from the bustle of city life every once in a while. Luckily, you don't need to travel very far for some well-deserved R&R. The Catskills are the place to be. Not too far from the city, but far enough to escape the center. So, pack your best knitwear, dig out those hiking boots, and book a weekend away. Wondering where to stay? That’s where we come in. We’ve scoured Airbnb to find some of the Catskills’ most unique, stylish, and memorable getaways, from group adventures to romantic hideaways, we've ticked every box. 1. The geo dome in WoodridgeFinally, something worth clogging up your buddies' Insta feeds: a geodome in the middle of the forest. Whaaat? Yeah, seriously. Gaze out onto trees through the latticed framework of your dome and truly feel at one with nature, but, you know, with all the modern comforts of home. Because you totally deserve all the modern comforts of home, right? Course you do. However, you will need to bring your own bed, but that's where the camping vibes end and the glamping begins. Fancy a soak in a full-size claw-foot bathtub? You got it! How about getting your cook on in the fully stocked outdoor kitchen after a trip to the nearby farmers' market? Consider it done! There's also a load of adorable animals to visit as the dome is located within farmland. Plus there's a swimming pond for dogs, daily yoga sessions, a recording studio, and – most importantly – high-speed internet. What even is this place? Doesn't matter. Just go.
15. The quaint A-frame in MontgomeryAn A-frame is a classic choice for rural, forested retreats – and this Airbnb puts a modern twist on a classic. Plonked in the middle of 78 acres of farmland, it’s got your typical A-frame wooden décor and a general sense of airiness mixed with some thoughtful design features. The bathroom is outside but, as any seasoned wilderness explorer will already know, that’s all part of the charm.
14. The hobbit house in West Sand LakeAre you a Lord of the Rings fanatic? Well, if you are, here we have quite possibly the perfect Airbnb. This actual "Hobbit House", with its round doorways, rustic décor, and subterranean structure, is a faithful ode to hobbit homes of Middle Earth. And if you fancy venturing outside, the surroundings are equally wholesome. The home is plonked in the middle of June Farms, an animal sanctuary featuring shire horses, highland cows, dwarf goats, and much more.
13. The serene and spacious barn in Red HookNot only is this beauty of a barn located in a secluded, lush meadow, but it's been created entirely from reclaimed wood, glass, and other hardware. It has a wonderfully warm, rustic, DIY charm to it and is eminently homely. This is the perfect base for those who love walking and watching, as hiking trails and a bird sanctuary are nearby. The best part? The nearby meadows are filled with wildlife so you may well get some very unique sightings from the comfort of your Airbnb.
12. The cozy yurt in AccordEven the most outspoken glamping critic will change their tune after spending one weekend at this luxe yurt located on a 27-acre horse farm just two hours north of NYC. The spacious 700sqft cylindrical structure is decked out with a full kitchen and charcoal grill for rustic cooking, propane fireplace for evening reading, and skylight for nighttime stargazing. Glampers even have access to the farm’s hot tub just two minutes from the yurt.
11. The 1903 carriage house in SaugertiesThis 1903 carriage house looks like an absolute dream to stay in. You'll have the entire house to yourself, and it's on a secluded residential street, yet is only steps away from the vibrant village of Saugerties. Here, you get the best of both worlds – ideal for couples who want some relaxation away from home. Added extras include a living area complete with Apple TV, plus Wi-Fi and board games. Everything you could ever need, right?
10. The mission house sanctuary in Hopewell JunctionThe 4,000sqft Mission House Sanctuary is the ideal place for your large group getaway. Each of the four globally inspired bedrooms have its own private bathroom and outdoor sitting space. On the main level, guests can pile into the open-concept living-dining-and-kitchen area that opens out to an expansive dining deck overlooking the serene, lily pad–laden pond. In a house this size, there are plenty of tranquil sitting spaces to steal some alone time.
