In the tradition of art colonies in the Catskills, Smokey Belles Catskills is a Q***r friendly artist & writer retreat homestead, hosting since 2007. The property features seclusion, private river frontage, campfires, outdoor showers, wildflower gardens, and an authentic 1955 Catskills cabin, writer’s shack, & a New England style house with wild antique decor.
For those wishing to foster a reconnection with nature, & escape the urban bubble seeking inspiration, Smokey Belles is a respite for hiking, swimming, biking, reading featured books in library from , fishing, exploring nearby Narrowsburg, NY the “P-Town of the Catskills,” or just laying in a hammock on the bucolic Ten Mile River.
