in 2002, I bought 70 wooded acres on the western edge of the Catskill Mountains with a friend to build a retreat center with the intention of creating a space where one could have respite from a busy life, could feel the peace and sounds of surrounding nature, and still have all the comforts of home. And so in 2005, Harmony Hill Lodging and Retreat Center came into being.
