The Sablewood is truly unique among an ever-growing number of event spaces. Around the farm herds of deer and flocks of turkeys roam the fields and drink from the hillside pond where you can see our favorite little turtles sunning themselves on a giant rock.

Set in the immersive landscape of the northern Catskill Mountains, The Sablewood is home to a rich and vibrant history.  

The Schoharie Valley is known as “The Breadbasket of the American Revolution,” and played a significant role in the formation of the United States. The agricultural output of the region including wheat, corn, and vegetable crops fed much of George Washington’s Continental Army during the war.

The Sablewood was originally built as a multi-functional barn for cows and horses, with abundant hayloft storage upstairs. Local craftsman hand hewed the massive native timber of the valley to create the impressive barn beams, several of which measure 40' in length.

Inside ambient light floods The Sablewood making it a photographer’s dream. The warm wood walls soar an impressive three stories high to a forty-foot peak. 150 years of artisan craftsmanship surround you from the impressive framing architecture to the breathtaking 1920s crystal chandelier and every detail of handcrafted custom lighting, hardware, and carpentry.

As the sun sets the candle lights glow and the barn takes on a magical feel. This place was here long before us and we have attended to every painstaking detail to ensure its rugged post & beam structure will stand for hundreds of years to come.

Because love knows no season.
