Turquoise Barn Catskills 1800s Carriage House Barn w/Pond/Mtns on 13 acres

Located just 3 hours from NYC in the beautiful Catskill Mountains on a former16th-century dairy farm, Turquoise Barn is a former Green Certified B&B that has evolved into a full-house rental, retreat, and event center.

Our Home:
Rustic . . Simplistic. . . Elegance........We are located in the Western Catskills on a former dairy farm. Our 3-story 3,000 sq. ft, converted 1800's Carriage House Barn has large loft-style open spaces with high ceilings, artist designed & renovated with handcrafted furnishings and art throughout the house. Sleeps up to 16 people.

Set on acres of meadows, mountains, wooded areas, organic flower & veggie gardens, a fishing/swimming pond and streams, barns, and an amazing event field (with stage) nestled in the Catskill mountains.

This fully furnished home is ideal for your next vacation, retreat, or gathering with friends & family. It's also the perfect spot for a country wedding, family reunions, group or corporate retreats.

Upstairs are four large bedrooms (comfortably sleep 4 in each room), each equipped with a full private bathroom, tastefully designed and decorated, and each with AMAZING views of the sunrise, sunset, moonrise, mountains or pond.

Downstairs has an additional 5th full bathroom, open kitchen, large handcrafted dining table, radiant heat floors, wood stove and back sun porch.

NATURE THERAPY.......Outside are acres of meadows, mountains, wooded areas, organic flower & veggie gardens, a fishing/swimming pond and streams. Fire pit for evening gatherings and open large field for special events. Hiking in our backyard or up the mountain road and just minutes away from the Catskill Scenic Trail for biking/walking/running/skiing.

We are an eco-friendly chemical & pesticide-free environment both inside and out. Fresh spring water is available throughout the house and property; you can drink, swim and even shower in it! We use only natural soaps & cleaners as well as organic cotton linens.

Our property is the perfect location for large outdoor gatherings or small indoor events. Create your perfect country WEDDING; host a RETREAT, dinner party, or family and friends reunion. In addition to the house, we also rent our indoor/outdoor event space - Turquoise Barn and we have a large OUTDOOR EVENT SPACE nestled in the foothills with plenty of parking.

What to do? Watch the sun set, moon rise, stars sparkle, relax by pond, build a bon fire, curl up with a good book next to the wood stove, schedule a massage or reiki treatment, hike or snowshoe the foothills in our backyard, visit the historical graveyard across the street. And if you want to explore, there are plenty of activities in the area.

We also offer private chef services, a variety of workshops including wild edible ID walks, botanical cooking classes (including wild vinegar making), essential oils, and yoga. Contact us for more details.

Wedding Accommodations

Michael and Michelle have put their hearts into this property - outside it sits on a hillside with a pond with frogs and carefully landscaped. There is a grill and a fun outdoor eating area. It's beautiful and well cared for but not so much that one is intimidated by being there. Inside it's thoughtfully decorated to balance the historical sense in the house. Each bedroom has a private bath which is a plus for individual families. So glad we found the Turquoise Barn. Thank you.

Fun Getaway

This property was exactly as described in the listing. The property manager Michael is very responsive to any attempt at communication. There was a small issue with one of the showers at the location and within 30 minutes of contacting him, he had it addressed. Very quiet area but close to the nearest town. (Only a 15 minute car ride) Natural drinkable spring water. Plenty of space for 16 adults. Grounds were well kept. I would recommend this location,

Beware of Renting this Place for a Small Event

We rented this place because of the recommendations, photos, and experience that the owners said they offered. Our experience was not the most pleasant for many reasons; from the start of the booking process, the manager took a long time to respond to our requests, but we thought it was due to the high demand for other events they could have at the property. They offered us several vendors of food, decoration, etc., but they were not useful to us, so we were able to find our own vendors. The only thing we needed from them was tables and chairs that, according to the photos on the listing, were good quality, which was not the case; they rented us horrible tables and chairs that were old and all of different styles. In addition, we wanted to check in earlier, and they told us that every hour was $50 extra for each hour early we were. When we arrived, we had not received any information from anyone about the check-in process and had to guess how to get directions. Regarding the house, the beds, bathrooms, wardrobes, and other rooms had mouse poop on them; the toilet paper they provided was half-used, and you could see mice creeping around in the middle of the night as if they owned the place. I guess since we were a very small gathering, they were not interested in giving us good service.

Beautiful Location - Poor Communication

We had a great time while at the house and we threw an event on the property which ended up having perfect weather and made for a wonderful day in the mountains! Unfortunately, our experience with the landlord and property management wasn't so great. We were clear from the beginning we were having an event for about 100 people. We were told the large barn could work for it. We were told it was clean and had working bathrooms. Our parents drove up to view the barn but found it unsanitary for food, drinks, and kids as there were birds living in it, poop on the floor, and non-operational bathrooms. So, we opted for the field instead. We rented a tent and paid for outdoor bathrooms. We were initially in contact with Kaislyn who managed payment. However, Kaislyn became increasingly difficult to reach so we primarily worked with Michael. As we were on our way to the house we were suddenly bombarded with messages that we hadn't paid for the field and that there were extra charges for mowing and setup which were never communicated to us. Michael and Kaislyn also accused us of not being transparent about the size of our event even though we had our parents view the big barn and always told them about 100 people (90 in the end). Ultimately, we paid any fees they requested (we couldn't possibly cancel by that time) and we even mowed the lawn ourselves. When leaving, we asked if a later checkout was okay and were told "no problem" - after we left they said it was an extra $100.

Rustic and cute

This house fit all of us perfectly, 2 families with room to spare. Our only negatives would be no microwave, toaster did not work well, and 1 TV for the whole house which we never got to work 😞. But if you are looking for a rustic place to stay with family or friends without a lot of amenities, I recommend this house 👍 ski resorts were within a half hour drive as were most places, FYI phones don't work most places in this area, however the WiFi at the house worked great! We brought board games and stuff to keep the kids busy and it worked well for our group. Hope this helps

Artful, Eclectic, Charming Carriage Home

Loved exploring all the wonderful art details and vintage charm of this home! It was a pleasant backdrop that several artsy families, all with young children (2yrs - 6yrs), felt safe and comfortable--plenty of space and privacy. Property was beautiful and centrally located for our needs (Buffalo -- Syracuse -- Hudson Valley -- and Providence RI travelers). Thankful that there were four primary bedrooms with private baths each. Would highly recommend and stay again. Thank you!!

July 4th Family Gathering

Our family thoroughly enjoyed gathering at this truly unique property. The carriage house provided comfortable & artsy space for family connections and enough nooks and property space for folks to find their own space when desired. The early July weather was perfect, with nighttime temperatures in the 50s and day temperatures in the mid 70s. Night sky is dark and great for astronomy and astrophotographers. We also enjoyed an evening bonfire 🔥 in the back yard.

Perfect place for a large group

Our family group of 16 stayed here for a wedding in the area. It was a beautiful location with a rustic place to stay that allowed us to have fellowship and spend time together. Michael was very easy to work with and we enjoyed hearing about the origin of the carriage house. Sixteen of us were there very comfortably. Only thing to note is that there is no microwave but you can adapt with the other amenities offered. If we ever return to the area from Kansas again, we will stay here!

What a lovely and spiritual weekend! We adored this charming property in Bloomville. Our party of 11 explored nearby trails, walked up the property, enjoyed the wood-stove, and experienced beautiful March snow. It was our first time booking through Vrbo, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. Mike was extremely available and the property had everything we needed. Will absolutely come again!
