Escape from NYC

Recalling the rustic elegance of the Adirondack Great Camps, The Chapin Estate is a private, four-season, gated residential preserve that has become one of the most sought-after retreats from the hustle and bustle of city life.

On approximately 2,500 acres, The Chapin Estate is nestled amidst the tranquil beauty of a pair of freshwater lakes, surrounded by pristine forest lands, and adjoining 14,000 more acres owned by New York State and kept as a “forever wild” expanse.
Those who acquire a Chapin home, on a minimum lot size of five acres, will experience the antithesis of urban: an unspoiled landscape of trees, coves, cliffs and trails—all bathed in a kind of otherworldly natural light of which the Catskills are famous.
