About The Domes at Catskills

Luxury

Domes at Catskills is a lakefront glamping adventure for adults (16 and older). This natural wooded environment on the shores of a pristine lake in the heart of the Catskill mountains, is just 90 minutes from NYC (GWB). Our geodesic dome combines the best parts of camping, along with the amenities of a 5 star hotel, all while relaxing in a serene forest.

Sustainability

In addition to providing luxury accommodations, we are committed to a clean and healthy environment.  We use only Attitude products for hair, body and bath products.  Attitude uses only clean naturally-sourced ingredients, are vegan and cruelty-free, as well as dermatologically tested.  All products are EWG VERIFIED (Environmental Working Group).  We replenish our products from larger eco-friendly refills.  Bar soaps are donated after guest use to shelters and others in need.

What a spot! Beautifully decorated and beautifully located. We went in the winter and very much enjoyed the atmosphere. Even though it was 17 degrees outside it was warm and toasty in the domes — Now we very much want to come back in the summer to explore more and canoe on the water nearby!

About the host

Jerry M. Feeney created the Domes at Catskills as a unique accommodation giving guests the "experience" of camping while also enjoying the amenities of a 5 star hotel. "I hated camping as a kid. Sleeping in a tent on the cold ground was just not for me. But I loved the outdoors and always dreamed of creating a resort that combined all the best parts of camping without the downside." A NYC real estate lawyer for many years, Jerry is enjoying this next chapter in the hospitality arena. A super host for several years on Airbnb, guests are sure to enjoy his keen eye and attention to detail, as well as his natural interior design talents.
