The Henson has 16 guest rooms and plenty of space to sprawl out and make yourself at home.
A living room full of beautiful art. A quiet library. Gardens. A roof deck overlooking the mountains. A sauna. Fires inside and out.
An exceptional restaurant you can linger in, over candlelight, for a good, long while.
Places to be together and places to disappear completely.
You are exactly where you’re supposed to be.
[EXPLORE THE PROPERTY]
“I felt I saw something new and beautiful everywhere I turned at the Henson...It's a beautiful landing pad for everything the Catskills has to offer.”
Architectural Digest
“The Henson is an exercise in comfortable, elegant design, with its sky-lit living room, meditative library, and honor bar.”
Vogue
“It’s an inn in the truest sense—with elegant yet cozy spaces for reading or striking up a game of chess, staff eager to guide you in discovering the area’s gems, and imaginative food right on the premises.”
Condé Nast Traveler
You arrive
There are fresh flowers everywhere
The fire is roaring
Or maybe it’s a beautiful day and you feel the warm breeze from an open door wash over you
Your room is ready
There are books and art everywhere you look
You go down to the bar
Your martini is ice cold
You try a glass of wine from a tiny town you could never have found on a map
You take a walk in the garden
Your table is ready
In the kitchen, exceptional chefs are cooking you dinner
Candles flicker from every corner
You order all the desserts
You order another glass of wine
Someone put out a wonderful spread for breakfast. The coffee is good.
There are small bistro tables in the garden and you find a spot among the flowering verbena
What should we do today?
Go for a hike. Swim in a lake. Ski. Wander around a nearby town. Take a long drive somewhere for lunch.
You find windy roads and plenty of places that are worth getting a little lost on the way to
Or you stay in
You read. Sauna. Stroll through the gardens. Toss bocce in the grass. Play chess. Talk.
The Catskills will still be here tomorrow. No one will care if all you did was a whole lot of nothing.
It's happy hour again, and a cocktail appears in your hand
Dinner tonight will be at the bar - steak frites and a glass of red
A chocolate tart to share
You leave the blackout curtains open and wake to new light
There's breakfast again, photos to snap so there's some tangible record, a recommendation of where to stop for lunch on the drive home
A genuine thank you for staying, hope to see you again soon
We're so happy to have hosted you.
