Welcome the Season
Celebrate the longest days of the year at Solstice Sizzle, our midsummer weekend of food, fire, and community. Golden light stretches late into the evening as we gather in the Catskills for open-fire cooking, seasonal feasts, and music under the stars. It’s the perfect way to welcome summer — full of connection, nature, and adventure.

The Flow of the Weekend
On Friday night, campers roll in and settle under the wide Catskills sky. We kick things off with a tapas-style welcome spread and a fire circle that sets the tone for the weekend.
Saturday is a celebration of summer at its fullest — guided meditation, time to explore trails or dip your toes in the river, and a long evening feast featuring seasonal produce cooked over fire. Laughter and conversation carry late into the night as we gather around the flames.
On Sunday morning, we linger over coffee and breakfast, soaking in one last moment of connection before heading home, grounded and recharged.
