The Upstate Lifestyle at 296 Diamond Notch Road, Lanesville NY

 

Life at 296 Diamond Notch puts you at the center of one of the Catskills' most rewarding corners. The trail to Diamond Notch Falls begins practically at the end of your road — a short, peaceful walk along a rocky brook to a waterfall that feels like it belongs to you alone. For bigger adventures, the Hunter–West Kill Wilderness is just minutes away, offering thousands of acres of backcountry trails, cascading streams, and high-peak hikes that will keep even seasoned hikers busy for years. A short drive east brings you to Kaaterskill Falls, New York State's tallest two-tiered waterfall and one of those places that genuinely stops people in their tracks, regardless of how many times they've visited. When it's time to come down from the hills and sit down to a good meal, Woodstock — about 25 minutes away — delivers in style: Shelter Woodstock draws regulars with its warm atmosphere and standout empanadas, while SILVIA has earned a loyal following for its candlelit patio dinners and some of the best lamb chops in the Hudson Valley. In short, this is a home for people who want wild, beautiful nature on one side of the door and genuine, grown-up culture on the other — and aren't willing to compromise on either.
