Company description

Originally built in the late 1920s as The Clubhouse for the once popular Rip Van Winkle Golf Course, Shandaken Inn has welcomed guests to the northern Catskills for almost one hundred years. Following an extensive renovation and reimagination of the property, the Inn has welcomed guests back since the fall of 2019. With over 12 acres of bucolic country grounds, bordered by the Esopus Creek, Shandaken Inn features 15 unique and artfully furnished guest rooms. The Inn is meant to pay homage to the storied past of the Catskill Mountain region, its former great resorts, and camps. It evokes the glory days of a time gone by when the Catskills were the premier vacation and recreation destination for the entire region.

Since opening our restaurant in 2020, we at The Clubhouse Restaurant & Bar have passionately focused on creating seasonal, approachable, and quality dishes with every guest interaction. Our concept pays homage to the once-famous Rip Van Winkle Club, The Clubhouse. Featuring a hearty yet simple cuisine crafted from the freshest seasonal produce and sourced by the Catskills and Hudson Valley region’s most notable artisans, purveyors, and farmers. We pride ourselves on great service, integrity, passion, and teamwork. We strive to offer casual fine dining throughout our restaurant, bar, in-room dining, events, pool, and other areas throughout our property, with menus that change regularly with the seasons.
