Nature is calling! \*\*History of The Awosting Club\*\* In the mid 1950's John Atwater Bradley, then a graduate student, attended a conference in Cragsmoor, the site of a celebrated art colony not far from what is now the Awosting Reserve and The Awosting Club. The next morning at dawn, he went out for an exploratory hike and did not return until long after dark. Bradley hiked through evergreen and hardwood forests, along bubbling streams, roaring waterfalls and shimmering mountain lakes. He discovered an incredible wilderness like none he'd ever seen, populated by whitetail deer, black bear, fox, raccoons, bobcat and coyote as well as a natural aviary of hawks, peregrine falcons, owls, eagles and pileated woodpeckers. That day he fell in love with the Shawangunk Ridge. The Bradley family still lives on the property, and after 50 years of sharing the property with educational organizations, schools, artists, writers, explorers, camps, family and friends, are excited to invite others to fall in love with the Shawangunk Ridge as John Bradley had over 70 years ago. Bradley's daughter, Camilla, and her family are keeping the Awosting traditions alive by sprucing up the camp buildings and platforms while maintaining the trails that have been used for decades for outdoor adventures: from sleeping to eating to playing to communing with nature in all her glory. ## Property amenities ### Ski - Cross-country skiing nearby ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi (surcharge) ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Food and drink - Refrigerator ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - Outdoor shower - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Entertainment - Books - Stereo ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Firepit ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed - Note from host: We prefer non smokers. ### Location highlights - In the mountains - On a river ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Rock climbing nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property;

THE AWOSTING CLUB Spent two wonder-full nights in a dome at THE AWOSTING CLUB last weekend. Deep in the forest, with a babbling brook for company, and Scott as a terrific host, the dome was comfy, well designed and well decorated. Scott was always available, had fresh baked goodies and coffee waiting for us on our porch in the morning, and regaled us with some of his life stories along with the very interesting history of the Club. We went to the annual Moosic Fest at Kiernan’s Farm on Saturday and the air show at the Rhinebeck Aerodrome on Sunday for a full weekend. And our pup Cozi loved exploring the Awosting forest. We will be back!! ##### christopher b. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maria D.

We just needed a place to lay our heads for a very quick and last minute trip to the area and this rental far surpassed our expectations. Katie was super welcoming and accommodating. She was kind enough to quickly show us the ins & outs of the Dome upon our arrival as she knew we were in a rush to get to a concert. The Dome was cute, modern, and SO cozy! Camping vibes (fire pit, outhouse, outdoor shower, hiking access) but with all the amenities (mini-fridge, heat/ac unit, electricity, comfortable bed, and outlets to charge our phones). If you’re looking for a peaceful and unique place to stay this is definitely the place! 10/10 ##### Maria D.

Beginning with the beautiful continuous sound of the running stream and waterfalls as soon as you exit your vehicle my senses immediately awakened being a city person. Beautiful mountains, endless nature, numerous hiking trails on the property… I felt like I was in a private national park. In addition to the endless natural beauty, is an overall terrific staff who was extremely helpful, and responsive. And a host in Camila, who was just super… everything! Just above and beyond what I was expecting and I couldn’t be happier. Not to forget the biodome accommodations, it was clean and well appointed, has everything I needed to be comfortable, and take in all of the natural beauty of the surroundings. On my drive away from the property I started calling and recommending it and I will definitely be back! ##### Shalema S. Stayed 2 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sarah W.

The dome is so unique & beautifully decorated. It's the perfect outdoorsy, yet cozy getaway - comfy bed, relaxing Adirondack & hammock chairs, and all the fresh air you need! The grounds are beautiful and we enjoyed hiking through the property & adjacent reserve. Communication was excellent during the booking process & with the on-site manager. Scott was so accommodating & helpful throughout our entire stay! We had meals delivered to our dome - and they were delicious - highly recommend this add on. ##### Angie M. Stayed 1 night in May 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller May 6, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication I cannot recommend this stay enough. The property is beautiful and the dome is such a unique exprience. The bed is very comfortable and you really feel like you're at a luxary resort. Note -- you do have to walk outside and off of your platform to get to the bathroom. It is the nicest outhouse I've ever seen, but still an outhouse, so no running water. If you can work with that, then this is the stay for you. Scott went above and beyond to make us comfortable and make our trip special. My (now) fiance told him he was going to propose to me a few days before our trip and together they planned some incredible surprises. In addition to the delicious meals Scott cooked for us and delivered to our dome, he also made up a lovely backpack lunch for us to bring on a hike. He recommended an easy walk to a nearby lake because it was dog friendly and we brought our pup with us. We found the perfect picnic spot at Tillson Lake and it was there that my fiance proposed. We had a picnic blanket, wraps, and snacks packed by Scott to make the moment all the better. When we got back to the dome, Scott set up a lovely charcuterie board, three bouquets of flowers, and had the champagne my fiance had brought chilling on ice for us. Later, he came back to our dome to take some photos for us and then went out of his way to pick up dinner from a local resturant he recommended for us. It was a perfect weekend due in large part to Scott. We will be back! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2021 ### 6/10 Okay #### Josh A. May 5, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, location Disliked: Check-in #### Nice room but a strange experience (for such a high price, we expected more) The geodome itself is very nice and cozy, and it overlooks a ravine where you can hear running water. Overall the place was clean except for some of the dishes and cups provided. The outhouse was actually very nice for an outhouse (clean and no smell) but there is no shower (which they advertised in the VRBO listing.) The main thing that made this experience strange was the host. When we arrived, without an explanation, he made us take a tour of this old house that belongs to the property owner. It was cluttered and messy and we did not understand why we were there. Before we arrived, we had arranged for him to make dinner for us. We regretted this decision when the host gave us a tour through a dirty kitchen in the old cabin and showed us the piece of salmon he planned to cook for us. I do not suggest getting the food. It was loaded with butter and just not very good. After the very strange check-in process, we were able to settle in and enjoy the natural surroundings. However, as mentioned above, there is no shower, so extended stays may be challenging if this isn't expected. Overall, it was a neat thing to do but in order for this to feel like a real getaway, they need to work on their professionalism and hospitality. The high cost per night made us expect a little more. ##### Josh A.
