Have you been to any of these 15 places that Thrillist.com has dubbed the “15 Most Beautiful Places in Upstater New York You Didn’t Know Existed“? While spots in upstate upstate New York like Rochester, Watkins Glen, Lake George, and Canandaigua get their due on the list, it also included Devil’s Path, a notoriously dangerous hiking trail that spans four peaks in the northeastern Catskill Mountains.

Also included on the list is Beaver Brook in Barryville, Sullivan County, over in the western Catskills. The hidden retreat with cabin, waterfall swimming hole, riverside hot tub, and sauna is akin to a spa in the woods, owned by Vimeo’s co-founder. It has an artist in residence program. Otherwise, you’ll probably never clap eyes on it. Bummer.
