“A Beautiful Sight, We’re Happy Tonight!”

12-07-2010

The Roxbury: Glamorous!  Fun!  Best access to the Catskills’ Winter Wonderland!

 

From time immemorial, New Yorkers have headed to the nearby Catskill Mountains for winter sporting at its best and most convenient.  With a few notable exceptions, that usually meant sacrificing the comforts and elegance of home for lodgings that were considerably more “rustic.”   But now there’s The Roxbury.
 
Location, location, location! Roxbury, New York is just two-and-a-half hours from The Big Apple, and perfectly sited between four of the area’s best mountains, one just seven minutes away, and the furthest just over half an hour. 
 

• Plattekill– 7 minutes door-to-lift!  Open weekends only.  Skiing and snowboarding for die-hard enthusiasts, plus tubing on Saturday nights.  For guests of The Roxbury, kids under 17 ski for free when accompanied by an adult.

• Belleayre– 15 minutes gets you to New York’s longest trails on its highest skiable peak; great ski school and kids camp.  For guests of The Roxbury, kids under 17 ski for free when accompanied by an adult.

• Windham– 30-40 minutes away, 39 trails on a 1,600’ vertical drop; snow tubing on weekends.

• Hunter Mountain – A classic.  Half an hour from The Roxbury, with a great lodge bar!

 
Deluxe accommodations:  Just in time for the season, The Roxbury has doubled its size with the new Roxbury North, right across the street.  It features even bigger and bolder accommodations – including five Big King Themes and four sumptuous two-bed-two-bath Suites, perfect for pre-ski, après-ski, everything but the ski.  Did we mention the 85-gallon two-person soaking tubs?  If you need more than a soak to rest your ski-weary bones, check in to The Roxbury’s signature Shimmer Spa.  One pass gets you in to both the North and South branches.
 
What a deal!  The Roxbury sells discounted lift tickets for Plattekill, Bellayre, and Hunter, right at the front desk.  For even more price worthy fun, consult the Roxbury website for deals like the Two-Fer-Two Winter Ski Weekend; the Two-Fer-Two Midweek Ski Sneak; and the Wild Winter Wow! Factor Weekend.  They involve things like Swedish massage and gourmet hot chocolate and all that skiing, at bargain rates.
