The Catskills

Explore in The Catskills

Stonewall Glen is located in the charming town of Windham, New York, known as the “gem of the Catskills.” Founded in 1798, Windham is one of the region’s oldest small towns, home to a historic Main Street, excellent restaurants and a range of specialty shops. Windham has also earned a reputation as an ideal adventure hub, given the abundant recreational opportunities and natural beauty on offer in the area.

Discover the Catskills in all four seasons.

Summer through Fall Season

The change of seasons in the Catskills brings fresh delights at each turn. Hike to see the wildflowers and free-flowing waterfalls in spring. In summer, plan camp-outs, bring a picnic to an outdoor music festival, or drop your kayak in a nearby lake. In fall, enjoy Oktoberfest, horseback riding or scenic drives through changing foliage that annually transforms the region into a color explosion.
