I wanted to say, I at first had a hard time spending the money we did for our stay here, but a year later, my husband and I talk so much about our two days here last year, that we are going back this March. The staff, the smells, the ambience, the drinks, the food, it’s perfect and so romantic. Not a place for kids, but an amazing place for parents to reconnect and relax in the Catskills, looking forward to going back in March.

I want to thank the entire staff for their amazing hospitality from booking our reservation to check out, it was so smooth. The check in experience was so welcoming. The Walden suite with the balcony hot tub was so perfect. Dinner service, and breakfast service was Beyond my expectations. We booked the sauna for pretty much every day we were there, which is a must do. when we asked for them to set a fire for us, there was no hesitation really set the mood. we also booked the cinema room, which was so comfortable and romantic. We really loved it. thank you so much for such a perfect memorable experience.

Unbelievably beautiful views, incredible room, and overall an amazing experience.The restaurant had amazing food, particularly the Jicama as well as the Braised Lamb Pasta. Cocktails were great.What stood out most, perhaps, was the staff and how accommodating they were. Chloe upgraded our room and was helpful with answering all of our questions regarding our stay.Can't wait to come back next year!

Wow!!! Where do I start?? Friendly warm smiles from every staff member, craft cocktails that will make your head spin and taste stellar. The restaurant has a menu nothing short of spectacular food! The challah bread with the special butter, the Caesar salad, like I’ve never tasted, the pork chop that melts in your mouth, and the fresh made pasta- all Divine! What a great surprise in the middle of nowhere ?The bed was like sleeping on a cloud. The ambiance in the lounge and the fire pit outside was something I wish I could bottle up and take home. Thank you Urban Cowboy Lodge ❤️

Yes go there so you can feel like you are roughing it in the wild. The cabins are great and very cozy.The hostes was very nice and the night meal they served was also pretty good. It's a little pricy but worth it.

I’ve never left a negative review before as I understand these can be detrimental to small businesses, but this experience was easily one of, if not the worst I’ve had at a hotel. It’s unfortunate as the hotel itself was nice and this could have been a great experience, but the total lack of customer service, false advertising, and high price of the hotel is leading me to write this.- For starters, we booked a “Mountain View” room - I’ve posted a photo of what this view actually was (first floor). We were told “technically this is a Mountain View” as our patio had a view of the mountain, however, there were no windows from our room that faced the patio, nor did we want to sit outside in 29 degree weather to enjoy our “view”. Receiving an answer that includes the word “technically” isn’t conducive to finding a solution or making guests feel their purchase is worthwhile.- From there, we requested another room as this was clearly false advertising - we were given a “suite” room which had a slightly upgraded version of the same view (second floor view). Our next problem arose when we came back from dinner to find our room was permeated with pork and chicken scents. We were given no heads up that this room was right above the kitchen and absorbed every iota of food scent from downstairs.- We were then given “linen spray” as a solution (image) and when we asked for assistance, we received the response “what do you want us to do about it?” when we pushed for something else to help us or make this stay even remotely comfortable or worth the value.- Finally as we checked out a full day early and complained that we simply couldn’t stay in the room any longer due to both of us getting nauseous from the breakfast smells that also came into the room in the morning, we were only offered half of our second night back despite us leaving before check out the next day. There was no flexibility or understanding from anyone at the hotel that we were misled and uncomfortable, and the general tone was “welp, deal with it I guess”- If all the above wasn’t enough1. Expired snacks at the mini bar (image)2. The hot water from the shower came in and out3. Three of the four windows in the replacement room were broken, although, the front desk did offer to come up whenever we needed to help us with the window. I don’t particularly love having a stranger in my room to close my windows on a supposedly romantic getaway.4. Dirty/dusty nightstandsI’ll end with saying this - make sure you know the room you’re staying in before you begin your stay. I can absolutely see this hotel being a great time, but unfortunately we were one of the few that got the short end of the stick, and their customer service isn’t geared to assist.Rooms: Make sure you know the exact room you're booking - the rooms we were given despite the "Mountain View" description was anything but. The rest of the rooms do seem like they could have been fantastic.Food & drinks: The dinner was great and the challah was the shining star.

Lodge looked great with a party atmosphere, but we were only guests for dinner. Great vibe, perfect setting, terrific hospitality, really good food. The mixologist really knew his stuff and our server was very accommodating. Despite a limited menu, we enjoyed several apps that were good and my chicken sandwich off the Parlor menu was fantastic.

Wow is pretty much all I can say. The Lodge is beautiful and everyone supporting it is incredibly friendly, helpful, and professional. A special thanks the Kyle Menard and Erica Johnson for helping me pull off an amazing proposal! I couldn’t be more thrilled with how things went. Didn’t hurt that she said yes ;)

I had no idea what to expect from the Urban Cowboy, but I knew that I was excited to arrive! The photos on the website painted the picture of a great lodge and cabins that really resembled what you would think of when you heard the term "Urban Cowboy". There was plaid, taxidermy, wooden logs, brown leather couches, fireplaces, and more. Plus, a few days before I arrived, I received a creatively written email that fully prepared me for my stay, as it included all kinds of details on amenities, the check-in/out processes, and more. (I also highly recommend using their local area guides, as they were very helpful!)We found the resort on a hill, which was down a small street in basically the middle of nowhere. There was no cell service, but the resort had Wi-Fi. We parked our car next to the lodge and went inside to register. We were told to wait a few moments for a tour of the property and to enjoy a welcome beverage in the meantime. The bar had a hipster hunter vibe with antlers and tree branches adorning its edges. The bartender told us that we could have our choice of cava or Old Forrester Bourbon as compliments of the place. I had the cava, which was sweet and refreshing, while my boyfriend enjoyed the smooth bourbon. We relaxed in the upstairs lounge and finished our drinks. Then, we were then escorted to our room. The Walden Sunrise Bathing Suite included a king-sized bed, a spacious bathroom with a walk-in shower, and a patio with 2 rocking chairs, a small table, and a giant Japanese cedar soaking tub for two. The bed was extremely comfortable and felt like you were sleeping on a cloud. The bath products smelled of the woods. There was a small treat area with a mini-fridge with various beverages and a handful of snacks available for purchase. Everything was perfect, and then there was the soaking tub, which was heavenly! It did not have jets, but was heated to 104 degrees, making it a perfect temperature to enjoy for an extended time.In addition to the outdoor bathing, we enjoyed several other amenities back in the lodge. They had a lot of vintage board games, so we challenged each other in a few rounds of Scrabble. We also played billiards in the downstairs den, which was located outside their movie room, which could be rented for $25. The lodge also had a canteen for late-night needs and local trinkets, as well as a gourmet restaurant and the bar. On that Thursday evening, there was a happy hour that started at 5:00 pm and offered a $2-off discount. I tried their Margarita, which was delicious and clearly made with high-quality ingredients. Our dinner in the dining room was also a winner. We started by ordering the Weiss Ferments bread plate with pickles and cultured butter. I thought the 3 slices of bread and 4 tiny pickles were decent, but not exactly worth $10. The butter was great, though...When it came to our entrees, my boyfriend simply adored his pasta with pulled lamb, while I enjoyed my Steelhead Trout in a light saffron-coconut broth. There were also mushrooms in the dish, which added texture and earthiness. I also should mention that, while there was a happy hour on that Thursday evening, there were so many other interesting events planned for the upcoming weekend. Friday night offered a live DJ, while Saturday's schedule included yoga, axe throwing, and heavy metal bingo!The Urban Cowboy Lodge was a fun, well-maintained, and gorgeous resort with a top-notch staff. I cannot wait to go back!

My partner and I celebrated our anniversary at Urban Cowboy Lodge in the Catskill Mountains, and it turned out to be a much-needed and lovely getaway from NYC. The place was smaller than expected but still provided a cozy atmosphere, and we had access to a beautiful expanse of land to explore. The nearby creek and Japanese sauna were delightful additions to our stay. We saw other people bring dogs and we could tell their dog had a blast playing in the giant field.The lodge's breakfast and dinner menus were delicious, although the dinner menu was somewhat limited, prompting us to venture out for drinks and dinner at Peekamoose, which offered fantastic options. We enjoyed a peaceful walk on the small trail behind the Alpine building and while we did not personally participate, we saw others had a blast participating in the extra axe throwing event. The gameroom in the main building was a highlight, offering vintage games and a relaxed ambiance to enjoy them all night long.Our Alpine top-floor room was spacious and luxurious, featuring a California king bed and a delightful copper bathtub. We appreciated the fully stocked fridge and other amenities, although the fact that nearly everything came with an additional cost was a slight disappointment. The welcome drink options were limited (Bourbon or Cava), but the view from the bathtub overlooking the Catskills made up for it.While the cocktails were not outstanding, they were still enjoyable, and the overall atmosphere was delightful. The automatic 20% gratuity charge was noted at checkout, and we found ourselves exploring the Phoenicia Diner afterward, adding to our Catskills experience.The stunning views and the luxury of relaxing in the bathtub overlooking the Catskills were memorable aspects of our stay. We do wish they had included complimentary bath bombs or bath salts, considering the price of the room. Despite the extra costs for many services, we would still recommend Urban Cowboy Lodge to anyone seeking a peaceful and scenic retreat, as the experience is well worth it. Just be prepared to splurge a bit for a truly memorable stay in this breathtaking location.
