Reviewed By TheGranddad - Washington DC, District of Columbia

The house is intriguing, with many of the rooms and their furnishings taken from Italian castles and chateaus and built into the house. Quite incredible. The gardens are lovely as well and the concerts can be exceptional, with a choice of venues to suit the music and the size of the audience,

Rockefeller State Park Preserve

Reviewed By lindaofny - South Salem, New York

We often go to Rockefeller to walk around the lake for our token exercise. There are many trails for those interested in long walks along the well groomed sandy carriage trails. Every one is surrounded by trees or grass. After storms the debris is cleaned up quickly. There are regular events to raise money and volunteers run the office. Seniors can apply for free weekday parking.

Grand Prix New York / Spins Bowl

Reviewed By nochum - Monsey, NY

We went on a busy day, as Grand Prix was having a special event for families with disabled children. I mistakenly booked a reservation for the wrong times, and only realized upon arrival. Carol, the manager at the front desk checked with Mike, the track supervisor, and they accommodated us by opening a track up just for us! That by itself was "above and beyond". To top things off, Mike took my 11 year-old for a few private "lead and follow" rounds to make sure that he understood the safety rules and how to operate the go-kart before we started. Wow.

I would highly recommend Grand Prix as a great place for family fun. They are clean, friendly, and very safety-conscious. In addition to the safety video, Rob reiterated the rules, and got us buckled in with helmets and neck braces.

We all had a great time, and look forwards to going back. They also have an arcade and bowling (we did the arcade, not the bowling) so you can plan to be there for a few hours.

Great place for a walk or longer hike Favorite is the Hidden Valley Trail. Many diverse sections that will make your walk entertaining. Beware of some steep elevation changes Plenty of parking and not particularly crowded, this is definitely a local go to place

Turkey Mountain Nature Preserve

Reviewed By John M - Cut Bank, Montana

Turkey Mountain Preserve / Trail is nothing but dirt walking trails created by people who have never ventured outside of the county to experience real forests.

This place has been destroyed by yuppies who cry anytime the park is utuilized. No hunting, fishing offroading, camping, as it is surrounded by an urban-surburban area.

Meander through an historic, 18th-century riverside landscape and discover a breathtaking display - all made of jack o' lanterns!

Reviewed By alp250 - Scranton, Pennsylvania

We really enjoyed the walk-thru pumpkin blaze! It took us about 45 minutes to walk through with our 1 year old and 3.5 year old! They seemed to enjoy it! Dress warm with hats and gloves as it gets cold; it was about 35 degrees when we went to the 6:30pm time slot on November 12th! Also, get there about 30 minutes early so that you could get the kids in their warm gear! We didn’t use a stroller, but kind of wish we brought one!

Muscoot Farm

Reviewed By jam711jam - Somers, New York

The food is always good and the service efficient and friendly. You will be pleased whether you order a burger, fish or a hearty Neapolitan specialty. The bar is usually crowded.

The place itself is very rustic and noisy but that adds to the charm. If you are looking for a romantic evening this is not the place. But if you are looking for a good meal or an unpretentious place to have a few drinks then this is the place.
