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.

"We enjoyed our stay very much. For me, the tastefully appointed rooms, mellow vibe and friendly atmosphere really hit the mark. For my husband, the comfortable bed and walkable location. For both of us, the tapas dinner and breakfast options were top notch! We would highly recommend it and would return again if the fishing calls us back to the area."

"It was good but our room key wouldn’t work after numerous keys and running back and fourth and reserved and did online check in with time of arrival and had to wait almost an hr for a room anyway"

5/5 Excellent

"It was a very nice stay. I liked Ramona at the front desk; she was super polite and helpful. We requested extra blankets before checking in over the phone. Although she was busy with other guests, as it was check-in time, she made sure we got the blankets when we arrived at the hotel. Thank you!"
