Dutchess County

Some of New York’s major attractions like the New York State Military Academy at West Point, LEGOLAND® New York Resort, Storm King Art Center, Woodbury Common Premium Outlets, and Angry Orchard Tasting and Innovation Center are found here. As one of the original New York counties, Orange has a vast history reflected in its museums, historic homes, and small towns. Brotherhood Winery, The oldest winery in America is here, joined by twenty-eight other craft beverage locations that all offer delightful tastings of their beverages. We have the designer dress you’re looking for, the perfect antique for your house, and that unusual handmade craft that speaks to you. Stay in one of our charming villages and you’ll dine at farm-to-fork restaurants and find wonderful boutiques while staying at a cozy B&B or full-service hotel. One-quarter of Orange County is open space with vast parks that offer recreation from golf and tennis to hiking, biking, and kayaking. We are the only county in New York located between two rivers, the Delaware for canoeing and rafting, and the Hudson for cruising (we have 2 excursion boats). Between those rivers, the interior rolling hills of farmland provide numerous farm excursions and delicious farm-to-table dining options, and locavores will love the restaurants that source their menus from the county’s fields. STAY WITH US. We’re the vacation you’ve been looking for.
