One of our favorite restaurants with beautiful large deck overlooking an apple orchard. It happens to also be Bavarian food, which we love.

Neighborhoods

The French Hugenots had to flee France in 1700s and come to America. This neighborhood is a beautiful reminder of their beginnings here. Full of old stone buildings and houses with lots of character.

Adorable and funky, this college town has it all- from great restaurants and shops to rail trails for hiking and biking, the Shawangunk mountains for rock climbing and hiking, or apple orchards for apple picking, cider and donuts. Come enjoy the beautiful vistas.
