And you can bet you’ll make a splash at the Kartrite Resort & Indoor Water Park, whether you choose to stay a few days or get a day pass to the 80,000-square-foot water park.

Fonder of outdoor sports outdoors? The Thompson hamlet of Kiamesha Lake has been known for decades as the home of the Concord, which has hosted generations of New Yorkers and is now home to the “Monster,” one of Golf Digest’s 100 best American golf courses. Wolf Brook Multiple Use Area is nearby for more simple recreational amusements, as is the Neversink River Unique Area and all the wonderful lakes around the Thompson hamlet of Rock Hill.
South of Monticello is the 60-acre Sackett Lake, where Louis Armstrong once blew his horn, now a quiet residential community. Then there’s Dillon Park & Pool in Monticello, complete with a fishing dock on the pond, basketball courts and a skate park. Thompson is home to several parks, including DeHoyos Memorial Park & Pond, with six tennis courts.
To add to all of the above, you’ve got to remember Sullivan County is the home of the Delaware River and the Willowemoc and Beaverkill creeks. We’re talking world-class trout fishing, exciting canoe trips, swimming, wading or simply breathing in the fresh Catskills air or watching the waterfalls crash. Whilst you’re there, check out some of the other quaint hamlets and towns in the region, like Callicoon, Livingston Manor, Roscoe and, a bit further east, the unforgettable Cragsmoor.
Did someone say Bethel? Just 10 miles west of Monticello is the real home of Woodstock 1969. Yasgur’s Farm is now Bethel Woods, and the original homestead is the site of the Yasgur Road Reunion. So you’ve got your pick if you’re looking for a trip down that lane and want to hear some music in a bucolic setting.
The only thing missing from our visit is a coffee shop, and though it’s not in Thompson, it’s not far to Floyd & Bobo’s Bakery & Snack Palace in Liberty. Make a special visit. They’re nice people with nice ideas about community, and they serve some wonderful things, including very good pastry!
Whether you’ve come to Thompson for horse racing or because you were there in 1969, you’ll find new and fun things to do!
You can live in Monticello near your business or find an old farm for raising goats: It’s all possible in Thompson! And especially at Sackett Lake.
