Silent G Farm & Getting There

Our home for the weekend consists of a classic white Catskills farmhouse perched above a spring fed pond (yep, we can swim in it, and it's stocked with fish if you are a renaissance fisherwoman who travels with her tackle box), a charming guest house, and a fully refurbished 130-year-old barn featuring a huge open loft space and living quarters…plus a state-of-the art music studio, sauna (!!!!), hot tub, and outside deck perfect for finishing your latest smut er…esteemed literary novel.

Silent G Farms is located in North Branch, New York, just east of the Delaware River, about a 3 hour drive from NYC/Brooklyn.

New Yorkers can take a bus from Port Authority to Villa Roma, NY, which is about 10 minutes away from the farm and we can help arrange pick up from there.
