Marketing description
Once known as Brookside Cottages, this rare Catskills hospitality compound offers the chance to revive a piece of mountain history in one of the region's most sought-after destinations. Tucked away on approximately 7 acres along scenic Oliverea Road in the heart of Catskills Park, the property is surrounded by the same natural beauty and authentic character that have helped transform neighboring destinations into some of the Catskills' most celebrated retreats.
The offering includes 11 cabin structures containing 16 existing lodging units (converted from 17 and a mix of 1 and 2 bedrooms), a recreation hall/lodge building with garage space, and a larger house structure across the road that should likely be rebuilt rather than restored. Set well back from the road and framed by mature trees, the property is anchored by a stream that winds through the grounds, providing the soothing soundtrack and natural setting that travelers increasingly seek.
Many of the cabins retain vintage details including original cast iron sinks, wood flooring, and the nostalgic charm of a bygone era. While all structures require varying degrees of restoration and modernization, several cabins continue to be enjoyed by the current owners in a camp-style setting, offering a glimpse of the property's enduring appeal. Existing electric service includes multiple separate meters which could facilitate the creation of individual rental units. A spring water source historically served the property, though future ownership may elect to enhance infrastructure through the addition of a well system.
Perhaps most valuable is the existing footprint itself. In an era when creating new hospitality density can be increasingly difficult, Brookside Cottages presents a rare opportunity to restore, reimagine, and elevate an established Catskills destination. The site historically operated as a year-round lodging resort. Boutique hotel operators, wellness retreat developers, hospitality visionaries, and investors will recognize the scarcity of a property offering this combination of acreage, existing accommodations, historic character, and location. And those seeking to increase housing opportunities will also see value in the number of units available.
Positioned near some of the Catskills' most acclaimed lodging destinations and outdoor attractions, the property is ideally suited for a wide range of future concepts--from a restored vintage bungalow colony to a wellness retreat, creative compound, boutique resort, or modern interpretation of the classic Catskills vacation experience.
Properties like this are seldom offered. Rich in history, surrounded by natural beauty, and filled with possibility, Brookside Cottages awaits its next chapter.
note: age of structures and square footage are both approximated.
