No experience required.

Spa, Hiking and Lakeside Activities

Pair a guided group hike through our trails and meadows with dedicated spa time at the Hemlock Spa. Or host canoe races on Kenoza Lake and field days across our grounds. Your team moves through the Catskills landscape together, then unwinds individually with massage, bodywork, or a session in the sauna— active mornings and restorative afternoons, all without leaving the property.

Scavenger Hunt Team Building Activity

Fifty-five acres of lakefront, meadows, gardens, and hidden corners of the property become your team's playing field. Our scavenger hunts are designed to get your group exploring together—solving clues, navigating the grounds, and discovering Kenoza Hall from a completely different perspective.

Cocktail Making Class

A hands-on session where your team works with our bar staff to craft seasonal cocktails using locally sourced ingredients. Set up lakeside or in one of our indoor gathering spaces, it's the kind of team activity that pairs well with everything—especially the bonfire that follows.
