NYC Weekend Trip to Catskills & Floating Farmhouse

You look like you could use a little break from the big city. Or at least a legit excuse to leave the brunch crowds far behind.

Enter for your chance to win a weekend escape to the Floating Farmhouse, an 1820s manor-turned-modern Catskills oasis, featured in Dwell magazine and perched at the edge of  a pristine creek and ancient dam of hand-laid stone. Beyond a two-night stay in this breathtaking abode, we'll also provide round-trip transportation and a gift card for road trip snacks or stocking up on dinner ingredients. 

Just two hours from NYC, the Floating Farmhouse's stunning spaces and storybook setting—home to many a wedding and international photo shoot—make it the great Catskills escape for family and friends as well. Bring in a former Blue Hill Stone Barns chef to cook you dinner, try your hand at the wood-fired pizza oven, hit the local hiking trails, and head to the local microbrewery. Or just go full-on jammies mode, gazing out at the water and wildlife from the towering walls of glass, nodding off to the crackling of firewood and gentle rhythms of the waterfall.

Sound about right? We think so, too. Enter now for a chance to win a Floating Farmhouse escape for what just might be your best weekend all year.

  • The cavernous Floating Farmhouse master bedroom boasts centuries-old hand hewn beams, wood burning fireplace, king-size bed, and large en suite bathroom.  Four additional bedrooms feature original wavy-glass windows and vintage farmhouse bed frames and furnishings.

  • Multiple seating areas and creekside views in the Floating Farmhouse Great Room are enhanced by a massive wood-burning fireplace, 52" flat screen TV, and the waterfall's cascading rhythm as it fills the grand space.

  • An expansive covered porch and dining space, suspended over the water’s edge, puts the “floating” in Floating Farmhouse.

  • A true cooking and communing delight, the Floating Farmhouse kitchen features a 48" commercial range with dual convection ovens, multiple sinks, miles of bluestone countertop, and a wood-burning oven for pizza night perfection.

  • In the kitchen, 20 ft ceilings with ancient hand hewn beams and three sets of French doors lead to dreamy afternoons on the grand covered porch, floating above the surface of the water.

  • A cathedral-like kitchen features polished heated concrete floors and a two-story wall of skyscraper glass framing views of the water, gazebo, apple trees, and historic barn.

  • A pristine Catskills creek, lapping against the Floating Farmhouse like an ancient moat, dares guests not to believe in fairy tales.  

  • Do cocktail hour Catskills’-style, gazing out at the apple trees and rustic barns from  the classic gazebo at the water’s edge.   

  • A mix of modern architecture and old-world charm makes the Floating Farmhouse, an 1820 Catskills manor home featured in Dwell magazine, a celebrated wedding, photo shoot, and vacation destination.

  • Perched at the edge of a Catskills creek, with a waterfall cascading over an ancient dam of hand-laid stone, the Floating Farmhouse's grand spaces, dramatic details, and expansive aura are as enchanting as the landscape surrounding it.

  • A 1700’s hand-chiseled Italian marble sink and 19th century wood-and-copper tub adorn the Floating Farmhouse’s serenely spare guest bath.
