2478 NY-145, Durham, NY 12423, Durham

Tucked into the rolling hills of East Durham, where the Catskills echo with music and memory, lies Five Furlongs—a storied tavern, restaurant, and event haven where past and present meet in celebration. This isn’t just a property; it’s a place of gathering, laughter, creekside weddings, and fireside songs. A place where lights glow long into the evening and the scent of something delicious always lingers.
Set along State Route 145, Five Furlongs evokes the warmth of an Irish countryside inn—fitting for a town known as the Emerald Isle of the Catskills. Irish heritage pulses through annual festivals, Gaelic melodies, and stories passed down through generations.
The venue is extraordinary in both scale and soul. Indoors, the tavern and dining room seat up to 100 guests. Outdoors, a 90ft x 30ft Amish-built pavilion with stage, JBL sound system, chandeliers from The Boathouse at Central Park, mobile catering trailer, bar, and dining tables awaits. A covered back deck, fire pit circle, and creekside cabanas beside Cornwallville Creeks complete the setting. The grounds are vast, beautifully maintained, and ready to host weddings, concerts, reunions, and celebrations of every kind.
Behind the scenes: commercial kitchen, full bar, prep/storage rooms, walk-in freezer/coolers, two wells, new septic, ten bathrooms, and two parking areas. Upstairs, four en suite hotel rooms offer accommodations for owners, staff, or guests. With two liquor licenses and a NYS Gaming License with Off Track Betting, the business is ready for hospitality and entertainment.
This turnkey opportunity invites you to step into a fully operational, beautifully maintained legacy. Whether you dream of running a destination restaurant, hosting unforgettable events, or living above the place where joy is made daily, Five Furlongs is ready to welcome you.
