Yoga & Wellness Retreats
in the Catskills

A forty-four-acre estate for teachers and organizers to bring their own practice — quiet, whole, and ready in every season.

Orchard & Star is an 18th-century farm in the western Catskills, three hours from New York City. It was made for gathering and for slowing down. Retreat leaders bring their students, their rhythm, and their intentions; we hold the space, the meals, and the quiet around them.

A barn built for light

A climate controlled barn keeps practice going in any season. Walls of black-framed windows, stone floors, and a balcony open to the mountains and orchard — bright enough for a sunrise flow, warm enough for a winter restorative.

A grand piano sits in the main room, for the teacher who likes live sound to close a session.

Move outside when the weather turns soft

Practice spills into the orchard, the open fields, and the garden, planted thick with lavender and sage. As the light drops, the gathering circles around stone firepits, with the Catskills going blue behind the tent.

Gather and be fed

A long communal table and a full catering kitchen sit at the heart of the barn. Farm-to-table meals are built around what the season offers and prepared on-site by licensed caterers.

Lodging in the farmhouse is included, with the barn and nearby inns for larger groups, plus a hot tub and optional massage for the slow hours.
