Closer House 11.7.25 - 11.9.25 | Catskills, NY
3 PM, Friday, November 7, 2025
to 12 PM, Sunday, November 9, 2025
Every few months Closer takes over a destination share house for an unforgettable member getaway. Our next Closer House is set in the heart of the Catskills, just steps from Scribner’s Catskill Lodge.
Think mountain views from the deck, a private sauna to unwind in after the day, dinners around the extendable table, and cozy movie nights by the fireplace. By day, we’ll explore nearby trails, stop into cafés and shops in Tannersville, and maybe even wander over to Prospect for a farm-to-table meal.

What's Included: Accommodations are covered; meals, groceries, and activities are yours to customize.
How To Get There: From the Hunter bus stop, the spot is about 5 minute by cab. By train, take Amtrak from Penn Station to Hudson, NY, and book a car service. Best option is to rent a car and drive (you can coordinate with your housemates).
What to Expect: A Closer facilitator will be there to help the group shape your own adventure—whether it’s hiking local trails, exploring Tannersville’s cafés and shops, or visiting nearby wineries. Dinners will be a group effort, with everyone pitching in to create memorable meals in the fully stocked kitchen. The schedule is flexible, with plenty of room to make the trip your own, but the spirit will be collaborative and fun.
