Located in the quaint village of Sharon Spring, The New York House is a luxurious B&B that will immediately feel like home – or the home you wish you had. Sharon Springs was a bustling society watering hole in the mid-19th century and the playground of Vanderbilts, Roosevelts and Rockefellers. The New York
House is a Bed & Breakfast in a former boarding house built in 1885. Today Sharon Springs is a step back into a quieter time with trendy shops. Some may know Sharon Springs as the home of the Fabulous Beekman Boys. And, yes, their store Beekman 1802 is just down the street from the New York House.
