The Western Catskills. Redefined.

Atop the hill, overlooking the Delaware River and the old Franciscan seminary at sunset, you’ll discover why Condé Nast Traveler called us “James Fenimore Cooper’s America with a dash of Tuscany.” Planted in 2014 and opened in 2021, Seminary Hill is a working orchard and cidery in Callicoon, N.Y., inspired by our grandparents’ and great-grandparents’ simple yet rich lives on the family homestead.

Walk the rows of a 12-acre organic orchard, see inside the world’s first cidery built using Passive House standards, eat in the farm-to-table restaurant, and sleep at a Michelin-key hotel.

We’re not just a Catskills cidery, restaurant, or hotel — we invite you to a holistic cider experience that immerses you in all we do.
