Cool spot where locals hang. The best stuff on the menu is the simple classic stuff. The burger, the pulled pork, etc. Good craft beers on tap.

There are two places you can eat here: the Restaurant or the Lounge. The Restaurant is pretty fancy. The Lounge is cozy and less expensive. Local vegetables when in season. Nice views of Beacon Falls in a cool restored factory building.

Humanely raises locally sources meats. Grass - fed stuff. Really good hot sandwiches. Grab their sausages to grill. They're excellent. Check their menu service hours. I think they stop serving at 7pm.

Seriously good, locally sources food. These guys find the best of everything they carry. Their sandwiches are not subtle. Get ready for some flavor and satisfaction. Good coffee and beers too.

This is really a restaurant, and a cafe, and a specialty food market. They find the best one of any items they carry. The best butter, the best canned tomatoes, the best olive oil. Lots of imported stuff, but they'll carry a lot of local seasonal stuff too.

Often they have local and seasonal veggies. The best spot on main street for salads and sandwiches. The salads are big. If you're vegetarian, they have an excellent tempeh Bahn-Mi sandwich on Thursday's! Good stuff here. And a beautiful garden eating area during nice weather.

Parks & Nature

Amazing views. It's a workout though. Not long, but pretty seriously uphill. Go all the way to the fire tower. It's plenty busy on the weekends, but not so much during the week. Ask us about other trails.

Stunning views of the Hudson River, the Hudson Highland's Mountains, Beacon Newburgh Bridge. A great place for a sunset picnic. Beautiful sunsets when the weather is right! Rent kayaks or stand up paddle boards at certain times.

It's a park, it's hiking, it's a beach. About a 10 minute drive from our place. It's a good place to hike with kids because it's short and pretty tame. And you get a good view at the top too. Plus it's fun to peruse the beach. Very busy on the weekends.

Good easy hike with amazing views of the Hudson river and the mountains. Bannerman Island and castle is visible, although pretty far away. You can sneak around the old brick factory a bit. You can see bald eagles from time to time.

World Class Contemporary Art. The building itself is worth the price of admission. It was a Nabisco Box Printing Factory. Half of it has these creeky old hardwood floors with ink stains in some spots. I want that floor.

Getting Around

This is how you get to NYC or Poughkeepsie if you don't have a car. I believe taxi's to our house from the train are $7. It's a 45 to 50 minute walk.
