From land that had no power or running water and only a narrow logging trail, today what is known as Star Ridge has 4 distinct accommodations to support the varied needs of our guests. The Cottage is perfect for couples, friends or a family. Little*Star offers a great upscale camping experience in the comfort and convenience of one room tucked in the forrest. The octagonal Studio is versatile and aside from offering surreal mountain top lodging, it has been used for a variety of needs, such as group retreats, meditation hall, lecture space, Reiki Circles, Sathsang, prayer sessions with our Swamiji and our Tibetan Monk friend. The Energy is awesome A special feature available on the ridge is an unique outdoor hot water shower with great mountain views and also an upscale heated tiled outhouse with a view. The ensuite offers private space with home like comfort and convenience for a lone traveler or a couple. The multi-sensory experience of rain on the steel roof, song birds, aroma of the surrounding forest, breath taking views and mountain breezes are magically delicious.
Because the ridge faces a 180 degree (SW, W & NW) view of the High Peaks and Whiteface Mountain, the majestic scene makes for a surreal experience at sunrise and sunset. Starry nights and meteor showers are common experiences around the bonfire, (conditions permitting). It's also a great opportunity to share travel and life stories with other guests and make new friends.
