BOOK NOW
Looking for the perfect weekend getaway?
A quick getaway lies only a few hours from New York City in the heart of the Catskill Mountains. Spend a long weekend (or a few weeks). Let nature restore your mind and spirit in a peaceful refuge, far from the noise and anxiety of city life. De-stress with one of many nature immersion experiences on more than 300 acres of wilderness.
The newly remodeled 200-year-old barn has a chill vibe ― relax by the fireplace, play pool with friends, or catch a film. The Lhasa Inn features cozy, queen sized rooms and deluxe king suites are available in Kathmandu House. Entire private cabins are also available if you are bringing friends or family and need multiple rooms and a kitchen. Discover mountain hikes away from the crowd just outside your door. The unspoiled natural beauty of our land adjoins thousands of acres of state forest, creating endless opportunities to sit back and take in the view or discover secret hideaways.
Dewa Spa
The spa’s unique hand-painted architecture and Tibetan-inspired accents evoke a sense of tranquility, while saunas and steam rooms offer the modern version of practices used to detox for thousands of years. Artesian water, fresh from mountain springs buried deep beneath Menla, is used in our spa treatments. This natural, mineral-rich elixir acts as a tonic for internal problems and skin conditions. From the Tibetan KuNye massage to herbal baths infused with Himalayan plants, our knowledgeable team brings you a range of Eastern and Western treatments. Cool off with a dip in our outdoor pool or lounge nearby and soak in the sun. Check out the spa menu for a list of all available experiences.
Dewa spa is open Wednesday – Monday by appointment only. If you are interested in booking spa sessions during your stay we highly recommend scheduling your appointments a minimum of 48 hours in advance. If you are interested in a spa focused stay please select dates that are similar to our spa hours to ensure availability.
Wellness Getaway
Improve your fitness routine or take home a new wellness skill with private qi gong, yoga, and meditation sessions. A fully equipped gym is available as well. When the sun goes down, light up the night with bonfire magic under the stars.
Book a guided hike or explore on your own. On-site and nearby trails range from easy to advanced. Our guides will introduce you to native flora and fauna found throughout the woods. Other adventures like kayaking, horseback riding, and other mountain sports are just a short drive away. As a wildlife refuge and Audubon bird sanctuary, there are numerous opportunities to glimpse your favorite feathered friends. Classes and guest experiences are available a la carte ― you can find a full list below. It’s best to book activities when you make your room and lodging reservation.
Wellness sessions such as yoga, meditation, sound healing and Chi Gong are booked through our spa. These options are available Wednesday – Monday during spa hours. Nature Experiences are available 7 days a week and can be booked at the time of registration or with our front desk with a minimum of 24 hours notice. We highly recommend for all CYO’s that you book all your wellness sessions or nature experiences at least 48 hours prior to arrival, as you may not be able to book once you arrive at Menla.
