Break the rules at the end of the hike and climb to the top of the first falls. It's not easy, but it's definitely worth it! #catskills
Check out one of Steve Keene album cover pieces in the bathroom. This guy's art can be found all over the East Village NYC (one of his bigger paintings was hanging in Lakeside Lounge before it closed)
Delicious handmade café fare you can eat among the antiques. Both the food and the objects are well curated.

Uptown Kingston is getting dangerously hip, and we're pretty sure it's BSP's fault, what with all those fresh bands they keep serving up. Our chat with the Lounge's Daniel Sternstein: Read more.
this is such a fun and scenic walk, perfect for a sunny day. Smooth walking and great views up and down the river !
This is a peaceful trail, densely wooded on the way up, plus a secret crumbling hotel being overtaken by the forest. You can see all the way to Albany from the summit. Bring snacks & relax at the top.
modern day NY ruins! So cool to see the shell of the old hotel still standing. FYI beware of the 2 mile fully uphill hike!! This is definitely not for beginners. Worth it when you get there though!
Make sure you walk the grounds, which are absolutely beautiful. There are many hidden treasures along the trails to discover.
Spectacular baked breads from a 17-ton Munoz oven, imported in pieces from France and reassembled by French masons in an old carriage house behind the cafe. Literally.
Ask Rachel at the bar for a frozen drink or mojito, they are great and she loves to make them!
A few things to note: it's BYOB (liquor store very nearby), no cell service (free WiFi in rooms), they allow little kids (sucks when by the pool) and no AC in rooms (industrial ceiling fans help).
