We often talk about the properties that define our community. That’s why I was so excited to recently tour The Eleanor—Warwick’s beautiful new Inn and venue space. It is more than just a renovation; it’s a thoughtful restoration that speaks to the level of quality and care we’re seeing across the Warwick Valley.
For years, this property sat quiet, a beautiful structure waiting for the right vision. The transformation we see today is the work of local architects DeGraw and DeHaan. They’ve reimagined the space with a rare combination of reverence for its history and a modern, luxury finish.

The Eleanor’s setting is truly unique. Tucked away with magnificent views of Sugar Loaf Mountain and Wickham Lake, it feels like a secluded retreat, yet it sits conveniently within the bounds of Wickham Town Park.
The design team did an outstanding job balancing sophisticated interiors with the surrounding natural beauty. The result is a venue that feels both deeply rooted in our local landscape and globally aspirational—a true indicator of the upward trajectory of our region.
The real magic of the renovation is found in the details. The designers leaned into the industrial beauty of the existing structure rather than covering it up. You’ll find original exposed beams, brickwork, and authentic hardware throughout.
The layout is designed for flexibility, featuring two stunning, mirrored suites:
Whether you are a neighbor looking for a local event space or a visitor traveling from Manhattan (a convenient <90-minute drive), The Eleanor serves as a perfect base for exploring the best of Warwick:
For those of us who live and work here, The Eleanor is more than a place to stay—it’s a vibrant community anchor for celebrations and gatherings. It cements Warwick’s reputation as a premier destination while remaining a welcoming spot for locals.
The Eleanor represents the best of what our valley has to offer: a commitment to quality and a warm welcome for everyone.
