Set on a former dairy farm beside the Esopus Creek, The Emerson weaves Catskills scenery into every visit, with mountain views, open sky, and quiet paths made for wandering. Overnight guests can choose the polished ease of The Inn or the relaxed, Adirondack-inspired comfort of The Lodge, with room for romantic retreats, family stays, and dog-friendly getaways. The Emerson Spa offers nature-inspired treatments, while The Shops at Emerson turn a restored 19th-century barn into an inviting place to browse home goods, gifts, clothing, locally made finds, and the World’s Largest Kaleidoscope, a walk-inside optical experience filled with shifting color, mirrors, and sound. An on-site restaurant welcomes resort guests, day visitors, and locals for seasonal meals, drinks, and creekside views. Minutes from Phoenicia, Woodstock, and year-round outdoor activities such as skiing, hiking, tubing, and fishing, The Emerson makes it easy to explore the Catskills at your own pace, with space to unwind between outings in every season. 5340 Route 28.
