Catskills (Livingston Manor) Travel Guide

April 7, 2021
-
Posted by Lauren Rodych-Eberle

Jordan said our winter vacations keep getting more and more remote, and he is very right! This one was our most remote yet, where we made a little home in a place without a TV (yup!), and no access to a gym. It felt even more remote by the fact that it was the middle of winter and not full of tourists hiking and exploring. But it was beautiful, and quaint, and a perfect little BabyMoon location for us!

Activities

The Catskills leaves you with a range of options. We stayed at The Arnold on Shandalee and treated ourselves to the suites by the spa, giving us lots of space! Another great hotel in Livingston Manor would be The DeBruce. Two things to keep in mind: The Arnold is right by the road, so pack earplugs for sleeping if that bothers you, and it’s not accessible via elevator, so stairs are required (even to get from the front door of the suite, into the suite, there is a flight of stairs). Now, what to do…

  • Cozy up with a book by the fire in the Sun Room at The Arnold
  • Book in at the Spa (at the Arnold)
  • Check out all the things your accommodations have to offer. The Arnold offers Trivia Night, yoga classes, and various other activities
  • Go on a hike: Balsam Lake Mountain – depending on time of year, you may be able to go to the Fire Tower. Moderate (to Difficult) hike – if you want to keep it more moderate, follow the blue tags, rather than the red. In winter, depending on the amount of snow, ice cleats or snow shoes would be beneficial
  • Walk the Main Street
  • Head to Narrowsburg for lunch and walk their main street
  • Drive to Bethel and see where the first Woodstock Festival 1969 was held; they also have a museum opened part of the year
  • See the Sonoma Falls

Other activities that I didn’t get a chance to do, but were recommended and/or researched:

  • Drive along the Delaware River
  • Go to the Catskill Art Society
  • Take a gong meditation class with Marc at River Family Wellness in Callicoon

Now to the Food…

Restaurants

  • Main Street Farm Market Cafe – soup & sandwich, and homemade baking kind of place! Plus, has a range of groceries available
  • The Kaatskeller – wood-fired pizza!
  • The Heron – American diner-ish for breakfast and lunch in Narrowsburg
  • The DeBruce – our best meal, by far! Book ahead of time if you want to do the tasting menu
  • The Tavern – stick to just the pub-type food, but if you go on a Thursday night, it will be packed with locals doing trivia

Other Restaurants that I didn’t get a chance to try, but were recommended and/or researched:

  • The Laundrette – pizza in Narrowsburg
  • Tusten Cup – cafe in Narrowsburg
  • Cochecton Fire Station – lunch or dinner in Cochecton

Don’t forget to pack your board games, books, and all other things to enjoy the quiet, relaxing journey that awaits you!

I am the owner of Miss Lauren’s Music Studio, where I teach voice, piano, ukulele, and preschool music classes – via Skype and within Calgary. I am a Senior Consultant for Pampered Chef, which has inspired me over the years to write two cookbooks (plus one mini ebook cookbook), that have food preparation made easy in the forefront.

While taking Conscious Parenting Coaching, I had t While taking Conscious Parenting Coaching, I had to be coached as well, and a lot of my takeaways were affirmations that I will now continue to say to myself constantly. 

“Just because I can, doesn’t mean I should.” “It’s okay to let go.” “Investment in help benefits the whole family system.” Always a work in progress. 

Do you have an affirmation you’re whispering in your own ear lately?!

With D coming up on starting solids, I’m going down memory lane. My midwife said something that gave me all the feels…how incredible it is that every cell of little Deacon has come from me, from growing him to nourishing him with my milk. Knowing he’s going to start being nourished with other food makes me want to pause time, but also…I love this food journey, as you know…since it brought me #collinskitchencookbook and I think it may be even more fun this time around since Collins is already planning out Deacon’s menu!!

Is there anything you want me to talk about baby-led weaning wise as we go about our food journey?! And if not, just tell me what food you think D should try ASAP!!

If you asked Jordan his biggest pet peeve about me, he would say that I never know where my keys or phone are when we are leaving the house. [And yes, I know there are a thousand good ways to solve this problem, but yet here we are…]

I would guess that his runner up is when I’m driving, I will take the way that takes longer if I like the route better…💁‍♀️

Please tell me what your spouse’s top pet peeve about you would be…entertain me!!

What “feels like” chaos to you?
