A favorite in the Hudson Valley for good reason-- this park is tucked away and feels like a sanctuary but with tons of activities.  The lake is serene.

Tucked away in a corner of Memorial Park, the pups have a chance to hang out with their pals in their own dedicated spot near the center of town.

We recently had private lessons at this horse farm in New Windsor and it was the best experience!  Olly was a great teacher and was able to accomodate our varying levels of skill.  The horses are so well loved there and we felt pretty well taken care of too!

This is such a great themepark!  We bought season passes and have enjoyed each stay more than the last.  The lego cities near the bottom of the park is stunning and a must see!  We have always had fun there with great rides, entertaining shows and a beautiful backdrop.  Love!

If you love hiking and gorgeous views, this is a great trail.  Straight up the mountain, so make sure you have proper footwear and are able to hike a challenging course.  There are switchbacks that go all the way up, after a steep set of stairs.  The views are worth the challenge!

This is a scenic, historic Hudson Valley must see!  We took professional family photos here two years ago and the scenery was breathtaking.  Great place to explore.

This is an incredible place.  Built in a place that really looks like the Scottish Highlands, you will not be dissapointed by this day trip.  Loads of history and architecture.  Oh, and you have to take a boat to get there.
