Emerald Forest Bungalows: aka Jake's Place in Ellenville

Emerald Forest Bungalows: aka Jake's Place

Emerald Forest Bungalows is an enchanted location tucked away in Ellenville, New York.  Grandma and Grandpa could tell you a story or two about the old school cottages.  This season we are unveiling our brand new chalet style cabins.   We have two of these cabins, the Owl's Nest and the White Pine.  Perfect for those who travel in pairs.  These units were designed to blend perfectly with our forrested landscape.  Ellenville is just a 2 hour drive NW of NYC, and just over the hill from Sam's Point Preserve.

We like to think of Emerald Forest Bungalows as a sort of Walden Pond meets Dirty Dancing.  Emerald Forest Bungalows is a green community and tries to accommodate like clients.  At 1100 feet, the air is always fresh.  Here in the foothills of the Catskills, pine trees dominate the landscape.  A pond stocked with bass, a friendly bullfrog, and our saltwater pool welcome you.  Take the edge off summer in the city kickback and relax.  Our grandparents remember spending summers at Catskill resorts, singing in variety shows, telling corny borscht belt jokes.  That era is behind us, though Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey won’t let us put that memory in the corner, Baby.

Full kitchen, porch, sun room, salt water pool, pond, canoe, yoga available on site, hiking on site.

Three nature preserves within half hour drive, world class rock climbing at the Gunks, pick-your-own farms, swimming & fishing on site, Bethel Woods Center for the Arts (original site of the 1969 Woodstock concert).  Horseback riding.
