About this venue

Your Dream Oasis for a Magical Catskills Wedding. This secluded, breathtaking estate is situated on 10 acres and 3 private bodies of water, with its own private island. The property emanates sacred energy. Over time, it has served us a venue for weddings (from Chassidic to Hindu and all in between), as well as yoga and intimacy retreats, and concerts. The landscaping is designed around a sacred octagonal shape — w/ an octagonal gazebo on the island, and the main house being an octagon as well. Parking for 80+ cars, and lots of vendor staging areas. Hold your ceremony near a majestic lakeside weeping willow tree, on the island (inside or outside of gazebo), or in a clearing surrounded by flowers, facing the lake. Includes a 1,400 sq ft separated poolhouse for indoor cocktails, a beautifully appointed honeymoon suite w/ private kitchen/living room, and a 3BR main house, w/ wrap-around balcony overlooking the water, 20-foot tall stone fireplace, and a majestic 700 sq ft main BR.

    We loved celebrating our special day on this exquisite nature escape in the heart of the Catskills. It’s a completely private setting and our sixty person event didn’t feel like we used a fraction of the space. Between the pool house, gazebo, willow trees, and yoga clearings, everyone felt like they had retreat tailored just for them. The honeymoon apartment was just what we needed and the energy of the beautifully designed main house is as spiritual as it is practical. Highly recommend using this space for your special once in a lifetime occasion like we did.

    The private approach to Casa del Monte is the entry into special time in a gorgeous setting. The custom-built octagonal home is stunning. The view from the deck, over the pond to the Zen pagoda is breathtaking at all times of day. The flowing layout to a spectacular pool house with an impressive bar and soaring windows is dreamy. I appreciated having easy access to bathroom and kitchen from our lawn party. This place is unforgettable! I’ve had the privilege of attending a few events at the estate, and it just keeps getting better. The couple’s tasteful decor from their global travels and their art collection are just marvelous icing on the cake. It’s an inspiring and relaxing place, where magical moments naturally arise.

  • Stunning venue!

    •Michele F.•Sep 6, 2024

    Absolutely stunning venue! I was fortunate to be surrounded by nature’s beauty while working a post-ceremony party there as a bartender. Lea and Dov were equally warm and communicative with partners/vendors and their end-clients.They foster peace while some venue hosts foster discord. They addressed questions and concerns easily and quickly. The property is beautiful and well maintained. All of the guests were enjoying the vastness of the grounds and views of the lake on such a gorgeous day. Overall, a wonderful, easeful experience and an atmosphere that is captivating and picturesque.

  • Gorgeous Wedding at 59 Hazelnis

    •Thomas S.•Sep 5, 2024

    59 Hazelnis proved to be a gorgeous, ideal wedding site for my 100-person gathering. I'd give it my highest recommendation. The owners were delightful to work with. The estate centers on an octagon-shaped house with a big homey fireplace. The spacious pool house was ideal for the reception. We held our wedding ceremony in a gazebo surrounded by nature on an island in the center of the pond down the slope from the house. It was a picturesque meditation in nature. The fresh air of the Catskills and the vivid greenery provided the perfect backdrop. The gardens and grounds surrounding the property were beautifully manicured and inviting. This is a wonderful site for a sacred ceremony!
