Tucked along a quiet creek in the heart of the Catskills, The Leeway in Mount Tremper is a reimagined boutique inn that perfectly captures the region’s modern revival. Originally a 1950s roadside motel, this intimate nine-room property has been transformed into a rustic-chic retreat that blends nostalgic charm with elevated, design-forward details. The result is one of the most stylish boutique hotels in the Catskills—ideal for travelers seeking a cozy yet curated escape from city life.
Each room feels like a thoughtfully designed cabin, complete with bespoke wood furnishings, artisan textiles, and elevated touches like Brooklinen bedding, Marshall speakers, and Apotheke bath products. The vibe is warm, creative, and effortlessly cool—appealing especially to design-conscious travelers and weekenders from New York City looking for a nature-forward escape. Surrounded by forests, rivers, and hiking trails, The Leeway offers a secluded yet accessible setting for a Catskills getaway focused on relaxation, connection, and the outdoors
