About
At Makers Hospitality, we believe in the timeless power of connection. For over two decades, we have shaped experiences that bring people together - whether through carefully curated retreats, seamless event execution, or thoughtful corporate team-building programs.
Our work has taken us from the Hamptons to the Catskills, but it’s here in the Catskills where our vision truly comes alive. Surrounded by mountains, rivers, and forests, we design gatherings that allow people to step away from the everyday and immerse themselves in nature’s rhythm. These retreats are not only restorative but also transformative, helping people reconnect—with themselves, with colleagues, and with community.
The Hospitality Knot
Our emblem, the Hospitality Knot, symbolizes what we stand for: strength, unity, and the beauty of interconnection. Just as each loop in the knot relies on the others, hospitality is about weaving together people, places, and purpose into something lasting and meaningful.
What We Do
-
Catskills Retreats – immersive escapes that balance wellness, recreation, and reflection.
-
Corporate Team Building – programs that go beyond boardrooms, using nature and shared challenges to strengthen collaboration and trust.

Every detail matters. From the first spark of planning to the final moment of celebration, Makers Hospitality creates experiences that stay with you long after you leave.
