The Pines Inn is a luxury property in Pine Plains, NY (Dutchess County). The Victorian manse was built in 1878 and has been restored to its full grandeur. After a meticulous eight-year restoration, we are pleased to announce the reopening and document the exciting happenings of The Pines right here.

Ski & Stay at The Pines
The post-Christmas snowstorm resulted in 18+ inches of snow in our backyard here at The Pines. That means one thing -- Skiing! We are located 35 minutes from Catamount, which makes for a great day on the slopes. After a hearty breakfast at The Pines, head over to Catamount for some fresh air and exercise. Finish the day back in Pine Plains enjoying country French food by the fire at The Stissing House (stissinghouse.com) before you return to your cozy room at The Pines. Molly, the Manager, is happy to coordinate ski arrangements or suggest other winter outings. To book, please call 518 398 7677 or email mclauhs@thepinesinn.com.  |

Food & Farm Photoshoot
It has been a busy and wonderful Fall at The Pines.
This week we attended the Int'l Hotel, Motel & Restaurant Show in NYC, then headed back to the Hudson Valley for a photoshoot featuring the food and beverage program at The Pines, as well as some local farms.
It was a pleasure working with Gemma and Andrew Ingalls of Ingalls Photography. I cannot possibly say enough things about them. They were wonderful and put so much energy into every single photo!

Here a few photos for your enjoyment. Many more are on Facebook.
