The lodge is a sanctuary from our crazy everyday lives of city living. According to "shinrin-yoku", the practice of Japanese Forest Bathing, a simple walk in nature has powerful health benefits. Wellness is the goal at the Retreat East Co where we make it easy to explore in nature and relax our minds and bodies. Recent sustainable upgrades include: solar, new hi efficiency split units for heating and cooling, as well as large electric water heat pump. The goal is to move away from fossil fuels of the past (propane and oil), and create our own energy with what has been provided for us from the earth's sun.

Experience Hillside The Lodge
The Lodge at Retreat East Co is a four bed three bath 1960s cabin set on a private road at the gateway to the Catskills and Hudson Valley, situated between Ellenville and Mountaindale, NY.
The lodge is perched on a hillside, including 105 acres- full nature immersion just outside your door. Interior design is modern with a rustic vibe.
Glamping and Camping
The Forest Experience is a designed platform Tentrr site, immersed in the forest mountainside for individuals seeking a private and comfortable “glamping” camp site or additional accommodations for retreat events.
Coming Soon: A tiny A frame in the woods
In addition to the platform tent site, we are currently building a tiny, off the grid A frame in the woods equipped with an all season deck, fire pit, hammocks and an outdoor rain-shower.
The Land Our Exterior
105 acres of forested landscape on a hillside, including 25 acres of cleared fields for events, gatherings and exploration, three large decks off-the-lodge for additional areas to enjoy the serene setting.
