Nevele Grand Hotel, Former resort hotel in Wawarsing, New York, United States.
The Nevele Grand Hotel was a large resort property featuring 430 guest rooms spread across multiple structures, including a ten-story tower completed in 1964. The buildings housed accommodations, dining areas, and recreational facilities across its sprawling grounds.
Charles Slutsky founded the Nevele Country Club in 1901, beginning as the Nevele Falls Farm House before developing into a sizable resort operation. The property underwent significant growth and renovations throughout the decades before closure in 2009.
The property served as a destination where guests from across the Northeast came together for entertainment and leisure activities throughout the year. This type of resort represented a distinctive era when such places were central gathering spots for vacation experiences in the region.
The property is not accessible for public visits as the site has been closed since 2009 with redevelopment plans underway. Visitors may view the exterior from nearby areas and observe the remains of the former structures depending on current development phases.
The name Nevele comes from spelling eleven backward, a reference to a group of eleven schoolteachers who discovered a waterfall on the property. This unusual origin story ties directly to how the location first became known.
