I really liked this place. It really is very beautiful and peaceful. We went with a range of ages including kids from 7-15 but we all enjoyed it. Not much to do except enjoy the scenery; ramble about; eat picnics and generally relax - but that is it's charm.

This is a great outdoor water park. Although it's been around quite a while, the attractions are always in good working order, looking fresh and clean. There are lots of new attractions too, seems each year they add another big one! I always feel safe with my child here, lots of lifeguards who are not distracted and lots of employees always smiling and ready to help. It's big enough to enjoy for the day but small enough that you won't tire yourself out running around. If you're local a season pass is a great deal and would definitely recommend.

Walkway Over the Hudson State Historic Park

Walkway Over the Hudson State Historic Park is a 19th century railroad bridge transformed into the world's longest elevated pedestrian park.

Reviewed By Miguelstvz - Weehawken, New Jersey

My Family and I just did the Walkway Over The Hudson River. It was great. A fantastic and relaxing view of the Hudson River. Somehow this beautiful walk gave me some time to meditate and I felt some type of melancholy about life and goals ( achievements that I personally need to adquire ). Kind of strange. Maybe because the cloudy day. Anyways, if you get a chance to visit this place please do it. You won't regret it

Large selection of books. This library regularly houses community events, such as stretching classes and other classes. Many are tailored to seniors. There is a separate community room for such events. Some are held during the day, others at night. Nice place, large parking lot.

Stormville Airport Antique Show & Flea Market

Reviewed By antiquerescue - Pennsylvania

An improvement over our last visit, but it's still a bit deceiving that it's called an antique flea market.
Sure there is a good selection of antique vendors, but there is a whole lot of vendors selling sunglasses, socks and underwear, and China knock offs.
I have noticed lots of buyers being suspicious of actual Antiques.
Takes away from the honest vendors.
All in all we found lots of good things and met some interesting dealers.
On this holiday weekend, they were really caught off guard with the lack of Port-O-Pottys and the ability to service them. The lines were incredible!

So wear your walking shoes and don't drink too much.
It's a large market and you'll enjoy the hunt.

My husband and I visited Crown Maple over the weekend for brunch and just to relax and loved every minute of it. The brunch was amazing, i had the pumpkin pancakes and he had the huevos rancheros and both were delicious. The property is beautiful and i would absolutely return.

Barton Orchards

Reviewed By AdvancedCake - Thornwood, New York

It happened to be a gorgeous Saturday afternoon in October, the heady aroma of sweet vinegar from the piles of apples under every tree that had begun to rot. sweeping views of the Taconic hills & Catskills in the distance. Corn maze, haunted house, trampolines, and a bar with 4 flavors of hard cider on tap - something for everybody.

4 stars because it is on the pricey side, $15+tax per person including toddlers. we got lucky with lines, but others complained about long waits at both main entry and the haunted house.

Walkway State Historic Park

Reviewed By Stephenbkk20156 - Okayama Prefecture, Japan

Hadn't planned on stopping here but we saw signs and followed them. They didn't exactly lead us in the right direction, but we found the appropriate parking lot in the end. Walked out pas a cutified former railroad station and found ourself suspended above the Hudson River. Great stuff.

It used o be a railwa bridge linking Highland Poorkeepsie. Now disused, with a lot of flair and marinating, it's been turned into a walkin/cycling route with a view. Nice to stroll out, along with other walkers, bicyclists and babies in their strollers. Pausing yo read informative signs about the history and wildlife if the area. Lots of view of the water and the two banks below.

Made it to the halfwa point from the Highland side. Sat and watched a jade blow bubbles into the wind. Walked back.

Highly recommended.

Wonderfully run operation. Staff is always friendly and willing to help. Chocolate shop is excellent, butcher shop is great and willing to accommodate your requests. Produce is excellent as is nursery. If you have never been there, treat yourself to the cider donuts made on the weekends. The bakery at the Wappingers store is excellent. The whole experience is worth the trip.
