There are many places to stay in the Catskills. Few put you this close to all of it. Phoenicia Lodge is an authentic Catskills hotel in the Upper Esopus Valley, with private cabins, spacious suites and distinctive rooms, minutes from Woodstock, Belleayre, Hunter and the region's most celebrated trails.

Perfectly Located for the Mountains

The Esopus Creek is steps from the lodge. Belleayre and Hunter Mountain are both a short drive, so in winter you can follow the best snow each day. The rest of the year brings hiking, waterfalls, fly fishing, biking and swimming holes. There is no off-season here, only new ways to experience the landscape. Our guide to what to see and do is a good place to start.

Choose Your Catskills Stay

Our private cabins offer an independent feel, with full kitchens, porches and grills, and dogs are welcome. Our king suites and two-bedroom lodge suite bring comfort, character and space. Our inn rooms are an easy choice for a mountain getaway. Whether you are traveling as a couple, with family, with friends or with your dog, there is a space that fits the way you want to stay.

The Details That Make a Stay

A complimentary continental breakfast of fresh local baked goods, fruit, yogurt and coffee is served daily in the Great Room. The tea and coffee bar is open 24 hours. You can rent a bike, pick up a complimentary s'mores kit for the fire pit, or settle into a hammock on the back lawn. See everything that is included on our amenities page.

Room to Slow Down

Throughout the property are inviting places to gather and relax: patios, private porches, fireside seating, picnic areas and quiet spaces beneath the trees. Inside, our newly renovated Great Room is wrapped in windows, with a fireplace, a hand-selected library and plenty of room for a game with friends. Read more about the experience at the lodge.
