Sundown Wild Forest · Catskills, NY

Come stay where the forest begins.

A hand-shingled cabin, a wide green deck over the ferns, and a host who walks these trails every day — waterfalls, black bears, brook trout and all.

We loved Scott's home. My one-year-old was jumping with excitement as soon as we pulled up and she saw the playground and all the fun toys.
