Formal and Relaxed Meeting Spaces Our size affords the unique opportunity for a group to have our entire country estate to itself, if need be. In addition to our master seminar rooms and amphitheater, meetings can be held in the large living rooms, dining rooms, and libraries as well as on the porches of our estate homes. Guests enjoy the manicured estate when going to their meetings, to the restaurant or their residence. The Huyck Preserve with its lake, stream and waterfalls, along with the quaint village of Rensselaerville, border the edges of the Carey Conference Center.
