Caspary Estate

The Caspary Estate in Livingston Manor, New York has been a retreat for HSS residents, fellows, and their families for many years. The Main House has five bedrooms, the Guest House has two bedrooms, and Canfield Cottage has four bedrooms. Canfield is open only in the summer (June through September), as it does not have central heating. The houses do not have air conditioning.

Summer Lottery

The maximum period that can be reserved is seven nights, to include one weekend. In the event of conflicts, Residents have priority, then Fellows, followed by Attendings and Management. If there is a conflict within these categories, names will be randomly selected. Because July, August, and September are some of the most popular times at Caspary, we schedule these months by a lottery. Contact alumni@hss.edu for lottery forms.
