A scenic three-and-a-half-hour drive north to Neversink, a picture-perfect mountain town in New York’s Catskills, might be the cure. Whether you’re seeking a total reset or simply looking for a little relaxation, it’s impossible to wrap up your stay amid the region’s seemingly endless fall foliage without feeling like a reinvigorated version of yourself.</p><h3>Where to stay</h3><p>Originally opened as a health spa in the 1970s, <a href="https://www.hemlockneversink.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Hemlock Neversink</strong></a> (rooms from $399) recently underwent a massive renovation to its entire property. The 230-acre campus is located just past the beautiful Neversink Reservoir, and feels a bit like an upscale summer camp: Expect an earthy color palette; locally crafted blankets and sustainable bedding; and the constant presence of the natural world thanks to the sunny relaxation room, expansive windows, and indoor/outdoor areas.</p><div id="FreeStarVideoAdContainer"><div id="freestar-video-parent"><div id="freestar-video-child"></div></div></div><h3>Where to eat</h3><div id="attachment_4093330" style="width: 970px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-4093330" class="size-large wp-image-4093330" src="https://cdn10.phillymag.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2024/09/2410-Jaunt_03REV-960x609.jpg" alt="Neversink new york" width="960" height="609" srcset="https://cdn10.phillymag.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2024/09/2410-Jaunt_03REV-960x609.jpg 960w, https://cdn10.phillymag.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2024/09/2410-Jaunt_03REV-605x384.jpg 605w, https://cdn10.phillymag.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2024/09/2410-Jaunt_03REV-300x190.jpg 300w, https://cdn10.phillymag.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2024/09/2410-Jaunt_03REV-115x73.jpg 115w, https://cdn10.phillymag.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2024/09/2410-Jaunt_03REV-600x381.jpg 600w" sizes="(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px" /><p id="caption-attachment-4093330" class="wp-caption-text">A dish from Bittersweet / Photograph by Clay Banks</p></div><p>Breakfasting on the patio at <a href="https://www.hemlockneversink.com/restaurant" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Bittersweet</strong></a>, the on-site restaurant, is a delight — particularly in the autumn, when the hills are ablaze with color. But dinner is transformative. The multicourse prix-fixe menus are seasonal and plant-forward (though fish, poultry, and meat options are available), with lineups like oysters topped with chamomile and chili oil, skirt steak with a side of charred chicory, and olive oil-drizzled chocolate mousse. And if you feel peckish between meals, pop by the kitchen for daily rotating snacks.</p><h3>What to do</h3><div id="attachment_4093327" style="width: 970px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-4093327" class="size-large wp-image-4093327" src="https://cdn10.phillymag.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2024/09/2410-Jaunt_02-960x815.jpg" alt="Neversink new york" width="960" height="815" srcset="https://cdn10.phillymag.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2024/09/2410-Jaunt_02-960x815.jpg 960w, https://cdn10.phillymag.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2024/09/2410-Jaunt_02-605x514.jpg 605w, https://cdn10.phillymag.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2024/09/2410-Jaunt_02-300x255.jpg 300w, https://cdn10.phillymag.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2024/09/2410-Jaunt_02-531x451.jpg 531w, https://cdn10.phillymag.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2024/09/2410-Jaunt_02-115x98.jpg 115w, https://cdn10.phillymag.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2024/09/2410-Jaunt_02-600x510.jpg 600w" sizes="(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px" /><p id="caption-attachment-4093327" class="wp-caption-text">The pool at Hemlock Neversink’s Spa House / Photograph by Lawrence Braun</p></div><div align="center" data-freestar-ad="" id="phillymag_in_content" class="gpt-ad in-content-ad"> <script data-cfasync="false" type="text/javascript"> freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: "phillymag_in_content", slotId: "phillymag_in_content" }); </script> </div><div align="center" data-freestar-ad="" id="phillymag_in_content_2" class="gpt-ad in-content-ad"> <script data-cfasync="false" type="text/javascript"> freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: "phillymag_in_content_2", slotId: "phillymag_in_content_2" }); </script> </div><p>Book the two-hour <strong>Detoxifying Waters Ritual</strong> — a full-body treatment that includes an exfoliating scrub, a clay wrap, and a lavish soak followed by a deep-tissue massage.
