Welcome to the Arcabuco Woods! (Taíno Woods) (You cannot drive up to your site) Our Fairy Magic Sweet Land of 12 acres in the Catskills is the perfect place to pray with the fire, the water, and to pitch your tent, gaze up at the stars, and unwind next to a nearby fire.
We provide all our guest with cedar so they can set intentions, release what no longer serves them, and pray in nature. This raw, soft, organic land is a home teeming with life. Listen to the birds as they sing throughout the day and into the night. (We call them the fairies). Look for the curious creatures that walk the earth like the frogs and newts. Open your ears to the sweet sounds of the East Mongaup River; and perhaps take the brief walk down to visit her.
