A Victorian Legacy from Windham’s Resort Era
Albergo Allegria Hotel preserves a fascinating piece of Windham’s history as a fashionable Catskills summer destination. Its two original Queen Anne Victorian cottages were once part of the Osborn House, a sprawling resort that welcomed generations of vacationers to the northern Catskill Mountains.
The hotel’s distinctive front cottage, built around 1892, follows Design No. 142 from architect George F. Barber’s 1890 pattern book, *The Cottage Souvenir No. 2*. Its ornate wraparound porch, decorative woodwork, stained glass, and unusual keyhole-shaped window reflect the elaborate architectural tastes of the Victorian resort era.
In 1982, Vito and Lenore Radelich purchased the historic cottages and began transforming them into Albergo Allegria. Two years later, they moved one of the cottages about 400 feet and joined it to the original buildings with a carefully designed connecting section, preserving much of their historic architectural character.
The hotel’s Carriage House accommodations, opened in 1996, were created from the former Osborn House horse stables.
Today, Albergo Allegria is recognized as a Greene County Registered Historic Site, combining authentic Victorian architecture with the comforts of a contemporary boutique hotel.
