Your itinerary made easy.
Sullivan County offers a wealth of activities to choose from year-round and The Arnold House Team can help you craft the perfect itinerary for your time away.
Work up an appetite snowshoeing on our expansive grounds featuring 80+ acres & hiking trails.
Take a nap - fireside in the sun room or in the greenhouse or even outside in the meadows!
Grab a board game from the cabinet in the Sunroom and challenge your friends to some friendly competition.
Don't forget to bring your four-legged pup with you for your escape - and run him around the trails and pond on property - anytime of year!
Have a picnic lunch in the fields or in our Barn & Greenhouse.
Help out in the gardens on premise. Nothing is more therapeutic – or rewarding - for some than to get their hands dirty and work in the garden (in season).
Take a scenic drive through the wonderful surrounding towns, along country roads and rivers.
Enjoy a summer concert or winter event at Bethel Woods Center for Arts. Peace, Love & Lights is open from November 29th - December 29th, 2024!
The Greenhouse
Work from home in Our Greenhouse at The Arnold House, a 24 x 70 foot tropical oasis where the temperature never dips below 60°. With over 150 exotic, tropical, and sub-tropical plants collected from far and wide you will feel as though you’ve stepped from a meadow in Catskill Mountains to a jungle in the tropics.
Outfitted with plenty of tables, you can work or enjoy a meal from The Tavern amongst Alocassia from Viet Nam; Orchids from Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands, and Hawaii; Fragrant Night blooming jasmine and cereus, Rare Midnight Tryst Hibiscus, a collection of six different passion flowers, and various fruit trees: Meyer lemon, kumquat, papaya, avocado, and bananas to name a few.
This climate controlled environment, where friends and family may gather to celebrate or share a meal, sink into a yoga class nestled amongst botanical splendor, or just walk around and smell the flowers, feels like summer all year long—no matter the weather outside on Shandelee Mountain. Just watch out for the spikes on our cactus collection, they tend to be prickly!
