Hemlock Neversink and The Arnold House hold the next two places.

The Catskills are having a moment, and Seminary Hill is at the center of it. The Boarding House, a 17-room boutique hotel run by local hospitality group Homestedt, sits just down from a working cidery in a pair of renovated houses done up in Shaker-inspired contemporary style. Clean lines, considered materials, and a setting that makes you feel like you've earned the fresh air. The Michelin Guide awarded it one Key.

The slogan "a friendly place for nice people" has been the house philosophy here for a long time, which either sounds like a joke or the most disarming resort pitch imaginable. This old-school Catskills property has been around forever, predating the whole Borscht Belt wave, and carries a genuinely laissez-faire looseness that most boutique hotels only pretend to. The rooms and grounds feel like a throwback, but not a dusty one.
