Why choose the Hudson Valley for a corporate retreat
The Hudson Valley is the easiest real escape from New York. Ninety minutes north of Manhattan, teams trade conference rooms for farm fields, glacial lakes and the white cliffs of the Shawangunk Ridge. Mornings can start with a ridge walk, afternoons with a climb or a cooking class, and evenings end around a fire. Travel is short, so you get more time together and fewer lost days.

In their words
Why teams keep booking with Wilder
As a remote team, it's important for us to create an intentional space for us to come together and connect as more than co-workers. We believe there's no better way to do that than in nature and Wilder Retreats helped us do just that.
Chris ClarkCEO
We've worked with Wilder Retreats on over three retreats now and it's been the best experience ever. They have great locations in their pocket, work closely with you on budget and details, and are always a step ahead with planning. I don't know how we'd execute on our team offsites without them!
Britt CooperVP of Talent
Our time with Wilder Retreats in Yosemite was nothing short of magical. We explored, we laughed, and we grew together. It was a humbling reminder of the beauty and power of nature, and of the importance of fostering connections with those around us.
Lily BakourHead of Communications
Wilder Retreats ran our firmwide offsite this year. It was clear we had a true partner in Wilder. From the earliest planning chats through the final goodbye for the airport, our Wilder Retreats team was responsive, organized, and upbeat, so much so that our own staff who worked with them to plan could simply enjoy the retreat instead of juggling logistics. The result was a relaxed, engaging few days where people could focus on connecting with colleagues and re‑energizing for the year ahead. We came away feeling both cared for and confident that we’d choose Wilder Retreats again without hesitation!
Emma DysonChief of Staff
Wilder Retreats presented, organized and executed a company retreat in Big Sky for us. The details were communicated in a timely manner both prior to the event and during. Our group had an amazing time! I would highly recommend Wilder Retreats.

Frequently asked questions
It is close. Teams from New York, Boston and the Northeast can be there in 90 minutes to three hours, often by car or train, without a flight. Once you arrive it feels far from the office, with farms, lakes, cliffs and small towns all within a short drive.
It depends on your group. Wildflower Farms is an Auberge resort with 65 rooms and cabins on 140 acres below the Shawangunk Ridge, a strong fit for teams of up to about 50 that want a polished, farm-to-table stay. Mohonk Mountain House has 259 rooms on Mohonk Lake with meals included and room for 100 or more, best for larger groups. Inness has 40 cabins and rooms on 225 acres near Accord, ideal for a leadership team that wants the whole place to itself. We’ll recommend the best fit for your group size, goals and budget.
September and October are the most popular, with fall color and harvest season. May and June are green and mild. Summer is warm and busy on weekends, and winter works well for smaller groups who want fires, snowshoeing and quiet.
Most groups fly into JFK, LaGuardia or Newark and ride about 90 minutes north by coach. Stewart International (SWF) is about 30 minutes from all three venues. Teams based in New York can also take Metro-North or Amtrak up the river, and we handle transfers from the station.
Yes. Wildflower Farms, Mohonk and Inness are all within about 30 minutes of each other, so we can base the group at one and plan dinners or activities at another.
Beyond the featured experiences, teams can hike the Mohonk Preserve, tour a cidery or winery, take a guided fly-fishing trip, ride e-bikes on the Wallkill Valley Rail Trail, or visit Storm King Art Center.
Yes. Mohonk Mountain House can host several hundred people, with ballrooms and parlors for general sessions. For larger groups we can also split lodging across nearby properties.
Yes. We use lawns, porches, barns and fire pits for sessions and breakouts when the weather is good, with an indoor room held as a backup.
Yes. Boating, the cooking class and the bonfire need no experience. The Via Ferrata and ridge hikes are guided and paced for the group, and there is always an easier option.
Bring layers, since mornings and evenings are cool most of the year, plus comfortable walking shoes and a rain jacket. In fall and winter add a warm coat and hat for evenings by the fire.
Most retreats run $750 to $1,500 per person per day on average, depending on the venue, season, group size and experiences. The sample pricing above shows what three nights could cost at each venue, and we’ll build a custom proposal for your team.
