The Emerson is an oasis of affordable luxury located in the heart of the famed Catskill Mountains.  Surrounded by the majestic peak of Mt. Tremper, tall shading maples and the rushing water of the Esopus Creek, the Emerson Resort & Spa is an extraordinary destination offering the reassuring sense that one is no longer part of the outside world.

Formerly known as Emerson Place, the Emerson offers something for everyone.  From the distinctive décor of the adults-only Emerson Inn to the traditional Adirondack style of the family-friendly Lodge, your spacious accommodations are the home base for a multitude of amenities and activities:

Emerson Spa. Our award-winning Spa features a variety of Ayurvedic, Eastern and Western styles of treatment, as well as a fully-equipped Fitness Center and Wellness Classes including yoga, Zumba and mat pilates.

Dining. The Phoenix invites you to savor a bounty of taste and culinary technique with the Contemporary Catskill Regional Cuisine created by Chef Curt Robair. The Catamount Restaurant and Coffee Bar incorporate menu selections made with fresh, local ingredients with many vegetable items picked daily from the Emerson garden.

Shopping. Unique gifts, pieces by local artists, antiques and kaileidoscopes are a few of the items you’ll find in the many alcoves of the Country Store.  Our Country Store is also home to the World’s Largest Kaleidoscope.

Amenities.  Stroll along the River Walk, play cards and chess in the Great Room, or watch our furry guests at play in the Catamount Dog Park.

The Great Outdoors.  Hiking, biking, kayaking, tubing, fishing and winter sports at nearby Belleayre Mountain will introduce you to the stunning Catskill region we call home.

Local Charm. The Emerson is within easy reach of shopping, dining and exploring in the nearby towns of Phoenicia, Woodstock and Kingston.  Peruse our Attractions page to find even more interesting and fun activities.

Hudson Valley Events. The Emerson is the site of a diverse range of special music events, gallery exhibits, antique shows and more.  Our Specials page keeps you up to date on everything that’s happening at our resort.
