The Estate

Where the Mountains
Come Home

Perched on 16.93 acres of Catskill Mountain splendor, Elliot Place is a magnificently restored 19th-century farmhouse — a six-bedroom sanctuary where light pours through every room and the silence of the mountains settles in like a long exhale.

The wrap-around veranda stretches the full length of the house, furnished for long summer afternoons. An original fireplace commands the ground floor. A dramatic master suite opens to a private balcony with mountain views. Outside, a bluestone patio, fire circle, bocce court, and the historic three-story barn complete the picture.

This is not a hotel. It is a private estate — entirely yours.

The Land

Beyond the Walls

Seventeen private acres of meadow, forest, and mountain — a historic barn, a fire circle beneath the stars, a bocce court, and grounds made for wandering.

The Grounds

The Barn

A dramatic three-story barn, original to the property, with hand-hewn beams and weathered siding that tell the story of this land. A striking backdrop for gatherings by firelight.

Fire Circle & Bocce Court

A stone fire circle glows against the old barn on autumn evenings, ringed by red Adirondack chairs. Steps away, a bocce court invites friendly competition until dark, with the windmill turning above the treeline.

Words from Our Guests

★★★★★

"An extraordinary property — the scale of it took our breath away the moment we drove up. The mountains, the barn, the deck at golden hour... we didn't want to leave."

— The Morrison Family, New York
★★★★★

"We've rented many Catskill properties over the years. Nothing comes close to Elliot Place. The space, the quiet, the setting — it's in a category of its own."

— Sarah & James T., Brooklyn
★★★★★

"Our annual family reunion finally had a home worthy of the occasion. 12 of us stayed and felt we could have had 20 more. The barn alone is worth the trip."

— The Chen-Williams Family
