Enjoy this unique space 1700 ft above sea level with panoramic views of the Catskill Mountains just 2.5 hours from NYC in our fabulous Sun Barn! Ideal for couples. It is one of 4 unique glamping structures on our property. Plus free unlimited Starlink internet and cozy cast iron wood burning stove for chilly nights and fan for the warmer days.
The Sun Barn is a 20 foot x 12 foot structure made from mostly recycled and reclaimed materials. Dozens of windows make it feel like you're camping outside. And you're protected from rain, wind and any uninvited animals. .
There is nearby sparkling clean 2024 issued porta-potty.
Just outside the barn you'll find your Weber propane barbecue grill with solid wood traditional picnic table and benches. Use the ice filled cooler provided to store your burgers, hot dogs and other food items. We provide all the cooking utensils, silverware, paper plates, napkins, coffee mugs, drinking water and other kitchen essentials (salt, pepper, tissues, napkins, dish soap, etc.)
