Just up the road from the Catskills' Blue Hole is a calming waterfall that feeds into the stream that becomes the Blue Hole.

The Blue Hole and the surrounding area was once a place of peace and reflection. It was a secretive location, one loved by locals, but during the course of this past summer it has been taken over by tourists. Now, you may wonder why this has a negative connotation and let me explain.

This is state park, the glorious Catskill Mountains with all its splendor, but it's a little less wonderful when tourists visit the location in droves, double parking on the already tight roadway, leave their trash in the water and shoreline, and are disrespectful to the land and those who live nearby.

I hope this location will return to the quiet sanctuary it always was for me when I was a teen. I hope others can return to this place and see the beauty of it for what it really is, rather than a collection of trash and rude people.

The Kartrite Resort & Indoor Waterpark

10/10 Excellent

"Very beautiful resort / waterpark, stayed with my husband, two kids under 2 and my mom. We loved it only thing is the food is pricey for something that isn’t as good and also room service should be better as in front desk answering the phones to restock room amenities but other than that staff was great our room wasn’t ready at 4pm which is check in kind of frustrating since we drove over 2 hours, but around 6pm I went to ask and they gave us an upgrade and accommodated us with another beautiful room grand family suite with a balcony. Overall loved it we came here for my sons birthday they both had fun which is all that matters! "
