The Catskill Mountains are an incredible getaway. Much of the land is forest preserve and the dramatic landscape has captured popular imagination for generations. In short, if you want an extended detour into nature– this is the place. These luxurious cabins in New York offer beauty, solitude, and comfort. They are perfect.

This painting by William Guy Wall from 1826 captures the enduring allure of the region.
