Tucked away on 140 acres, Wildflower Farms alleviates your mental load before you’ve even plugged in the car. Set against the dramatic backdrop of the Gunks (aka Shawangunk Mountains), the sprawling meadowy property is akin to a secret commune for tasteful hedonists. Around the 65 bungalows, three miles of trails lead to places like the Shawangunk Kill river, a nature playground with a mini zipline and tree swing, and the farm, where guests can feed the chickens and bring eggs back to crack open at the hyper-seasonal on-site restaurant, Clay. Additional onsite activities include a new class offered daily, which can range from making your own flower focaccia or piece of pottery, to becoming a botanical mixologist. When the sky starts to blush, unwind fireside on the porch with a glass of their very own Wildflower Farms Rosé and a dip in the indoor pool with never-gets-old mountainside views.
