LOCATION + LODGING

Welcome to Juniper Grove - your country home retreat in the Catskills. This 4 bedroom 2 full/2 half bath farmhouse has stunning views of the Ashokan Reservoir to enjoy from the classic wrap-around front porch. Sitting on 40 private acres, you are held by Mother Nature at every turn. Inside you'll find all the modern conveniences and creature comforts to support your stay. Outside there is a spring-fed pond for swimming, meadows for sunbathing, forests for walking and hiking, and outdoor fireplaces and a fire pit for warming. Inside there are more fireplaces for relaxing, a chef's kitchen with a wood stove, a huge living room for sprawling, and cozy beds for resting.


Surrounded by bountiful natural views this private and serene location immerses you in nature, and subsequently a tranquil peace. The vibe of the house is bright, airy and full of balinese furniture in natural, warm and inviting colors.  Group meals will take place either indoors or outdoors, with a litany of beautiful settings for either. There are plenty of nooks to hide yourself away for private time, with so much space at the house and on the grounds you can decide for yourself if you need time to yourself or want to connect with others. 

The second story of the house where bedrooms are located is large and sprawling. The 4 bedrooms are each connected by a full bathroom, meaning you will be sharing with the room next door. However with 4 total bathrooms in the house, there will always be a bathroom available to you! 

ROOM 1 

Large expansive room with a King size bed and additional Full size daybed. This room is great for double occupancy if you want to come with a friend or partner. Shared Jack & Jill bathroom to Room 2.
