Your Guide to a Cozy Thanksgiving Getaway in the Sullivan Catskills
Some of the best holidays are the ones you simply let happen,…
Welcome to the Sullivan Catskills Your Ideal NY Vacation Gateway!
Our legendary vacationland is just 90 minutes from New York City. Since the 19th century, visitors have flocked here to stay, fish, and relax. In 1969, half a million people descended on our small town of Bethel for the Woodstock Music and Arts Fair.
Today, families, couples, and friends come to escape and recharge in our breathtaking natural beauty filled with small-town charm and punctuated by big experiences in every season. Enjoy the rush of a river trip on the Delaware. Fish in the crystal-clear waters where American fly-fishing was born. Unwind at stunning resorts, charming boutique inns, B&Bs, campgrounds, and vacation rentals. Immerse yourself in our lively arts, history, and culture scene, including the one and only Sullivan Catskills Dove Trail. Indulge in our inventive Catskill-i-cious cuisine and our award-winning craft beverage trail. Our hoteliers, proprietors, and restaurateurs can’t wait to see you.
