About this venue
Escape the city to the historic hamlet of Jefferson in Upstate New York and immerse yourself in over 30 acres of photogenic countryside. Once an active horse farm, Catskill Ranch remains vastly untouched from the 19th century. Modern amenities have been added amongst the old wood & stone to provide comfort and convenience. With flexible layouts, we can spaciously accommodate upwards of 250 guests and also make smaller parties feel cozy and intimate. Our venue offers a 3,300 sqft. reception barn, a 10,000 sqft. rose garden cocktail area with bar & lounge and a cozy farmhouse with bridal & groom suites.
Our event spaces
Reception Barn
Rustic, elegant, open-air reception barn.
Our main hall is a converted horse stable, elegantly repurposed into a 3,300 sqft industrial reception area. As you make your entrance from the rose garden, you pass under our grand chandelier towards a 40x20 elevated patio that extends out to rolling hills and endless forests. This open concept pulls in the famed beauty of the Catskills into every corner of the barn.
