"As a lifelong New Yorker, the Catskills have long been my quiet spot-an escape I return to nearly every year, drawn to their snow-covered stillness in winter, slow mornings in summer, and leaf-peeping in fall. Just over two hours from New York City-easily reached by car or the Metro-North-the Catskills region offers all kinds of sweet escapes straight out of a Hallmark movie."
"You'll find chicly-designed A-frames with floor-to-ceiling windows, moody, modern cabins tucked into the trees, and cozy, wood-clad cottages complete with clawfoot tubs, record players, firepits, and wraparound porches. Spanning four counties across southeastern New York, the Catskills are a patchwork of charming towns, ski havens, and untamed wilderness. To the north, towns like Hudson, Catskill, and Tivoli skew artsy and architectural, where design galleries sit beside unfussy yet thoughtful restaurants."
