Happy Monday Tumblr ☕️🌿💖🥰 Hope everyone has a beautiful start to the week!

This piece is called Orphic Origins and Fine Art Prints are available in my Etsy shop 💙🌼

B-52s lead singer Kate Pierson and her wife, artist Monica Coleman, bought this 6.5-acre Catskills property in the early 2000s, turning it into a retro “love shack.” With a total of 10 guest accommodations- the motel, called Kate’s Lazy Meadow, is just outside Woodstock, New York. But, b/c they own other properties, they decided it was time to pass the torch and hope that someone who will turn it into a family compound, buys it. 

It was, coincidentally, built in 1952, and Kate & Monica outfitted the cabins with mid-century furnishings, bright colors, and loads of kitschy decor. Everything is included in the $2,200,000 sale.

Kate said that she warmed up to the idea of owning a hotel after so many years of staying in them while traveling with the band.

Another fun thing is the authentic 1950s refurbished kitchens you’ll find throughout the cabins.

Each of the 10 units was curated to perfection in a style that Kate described as “midcentury-modern fantasy land.”

Classic knotty pine!

She acquired a lot of the tchotchkes antiquing while on tour with the B52s, but, she says, “I just shopped ’til I dropped,” after buying the property.

Included are some high-brow pieces like Eames chairs and a Scandinavian vintage Malm gas fireplace.

In total, there are 13 bedrooms, 11 bathrooms, and 4,795 square feet of interior space. This is spread over three buildings with eight, three, and two bedrooms each.

There’s also a Japanese-style plunge pool.

The property is just two hours from New York City, on the banks of Esopus Creek, which is famous for fly fishing and tubing. You can enjoy the mountain views from Adirondack chairs, picnic tables, and a fire pit on the grounds.
