Wonderful stay at this cozy, vintage-inspired, dog-friendly bed and breakfast. Dorothee and Diane were extremely knowledgeable about the surrounding towns and nearly planned out entire 4 day stay for us. Breakfast was definitely a highlight of our stay. 3 course breakfast by the fireplace every morning! They even stayed with our fur baby when we stepped out during the day. Would absolutely recommend for those looking for relaxation and inspiration.

We loved everything about our stay at The Dewitt. The house is amazing and the three course breakfast is the perfect way to start a day of hiking or exploring. It was so lovely getting to know Dorothee, Diane and of course the dogs too!

I never write reviews on Tripadvisor. But our experience was so exceptional, we had to put in a little note. Diane and Dorothee were superb hosts, warm and welcoming. They made my wife and I feel so welcome, we felt like we were visiting friends. The DeWitt is very tastefully appointed, cozy, and unique. It was a perfect base to explore the surrounding towns and do short hikes in the Catskill mountains. Also, they offered great tips on activities in the region (e.g., concerts, antique auctions, films, apple picking farms, etc.). The breakfast was also hearty and delicious. They just opened in June 2015 and I know that it's just a question of time before they zoom up to the top of the TripAdvisor listings. Still a hidden gem, but probably not for very much longer. Highly recommended!

I just returned from a magical weekend at the Dewitt at Oak Hill. The owners have created an oasis of style, comfort and beauty. The entire building is filled with quirky, ecclectic, fabulous art, curios and furnishings (all, I believe, for sale). Our room had spectacular hand painted walls as well as antique furnishings, LOVELY! Clever design awaits around every corner. Dorothee, a co-owner, was amazingly welcoming! Our breakfasts were remarkable especially the baked goods which were, frankly, other worldly! I highly recommend this gem for anyone seeking a break from the ordinary!

We had such a wonderful time at the DeWitt Oak Hill! We spent a lovely weekend there and it truly made for our first trip to the Hudson Valley. The house is gorgeous and incredibly unique with all of their vintage finds, the bed was as comfortable as ever, the sound of the creek outside our window made for such a deep sleep, and the breakfast was divine. But above all, it was our host Dorothee that made it such a special time. She was warm, friendly, a superb cook (who catered to all of my dietary restrictions which was so wonderful of her!), she was helpful and informative about the area and I truly felt as though we became fast friends by Sunday.
It is definitely a B'nB experience ... as you get fed a big breakfast every morning! And you'll want to be sure you have a car and don't mind the drive to and from towns such as Hudson (we were a little unaware of the distance between everything) .. But we didn't necessarily mind getting lost driving around and returning home in the evening to a warm and cozy spot such as the DeWitt. A must visit!!

My boyfriend and I had a lovely time at the DeWitt Oak Hill. We randomly happened to coincide with another couple we know, and enjoyed delicious breakfasts together. The decor at DeWitt Oak is outstanding (very Instagram worthy!) and the B&B is right next to an amazing record store and antique store. The owners were incredibly friendly and took the time to get to know us.

May a higher power bless The Dewitt and her astounding attendants, Dorothee and Diane. We had a warm, comfortable, and constantly elegant two night stay. Dorothee, cool in Jil Sander, is an easy, ever ready, accommodating host, serving an expanded, exquisite breakfast, with house blended coffee. We'd stay here again and again. And look forward to a pop in for that great coffee or an afternoon drink, eager to chat about what's new at The DeWitt and her heroines (and give love to the dogs). Recommended.

Superb b&b. Unique, comfortable and welcoming with one of the finest breakfasts I've ever had - I didn't know you could make slow cooked oatmeal that good. With the place stylishly decorated and full of antiques for sale they've created a wonderful welcoming ambience.

Beautiful environment with exceptional hospitality. The restoration to create the look & feel of the inn was so skilled as to transport you to another, more peaceful and marvelous place. Combine this with the sound of the rushing river out back and the experience is sublime. Each room is beautifully and uniquely decorated with its own bathroom - the water was hot and plentiful - the stylish surroundings make for a scrumptious and luxurious stay. Dorothee and Diane are skilled chefs, who spoil guests with their outstanding cuisine and sparkling conversation. They are both animal lovers and it shows in the loving hospitality their dogs show guests throughout the stay as well.
The area is a hidden gem in the Catskills - the natural beauty is remarkable and there are multiple places with delicious food. There is a great flea market about 8 miles down the road that was really fun to visit. We will definitely be back!!

Dear Lisa, Such a wonderful review, thank you so much! We loved having you and Marielle, offering a quiet place after your hard blacksmithing class. Maybe next time you come, you could make door handles for The DeWitt too! Be well and see you soon we hope! Cheers, Dorothee and Diane

I have just returned from my first stay at The DeWitt Oak Hill. It will not be my last. I've stayed at some wonderful inns in my travels, and The DeWitt Oak Hill may just be my favorite. I arrived at the front door, and was greeted by name by Dorothée. The beauty of the grand building reminded me of the older homes I lived in as a child. My room was cozy, spotless and comfortable. Every morning I was treated to the most delicious multi-course breakfast, with fresh fruit (one morning strawberries flavored with rosewater and a touch of maple syrup!) along with freshly prepared hot dishes, yogurt, cereal and terrific coffee. Both of the creative owners are warm, engaging and made me feel completely at home - my visit was 6 nights, while I attended an art workshop nearby. After my day spent painting I returned to the comfort of The DeWitt. I can't wait for my next visit!
