Cold Spring is a small village with a large amount of history that was home
to important Civil War general Gouverneur K. Warren. The village is a
popular weekend getaway for many New York City residents and is easily
accessed by commuter rail from the metro area. The town is nestled in
beautiful rolling hills and features many bike paths, hiking trails, and
beautiful streams.
The downtown area features boutique and local shops that sell antiques,
clothing, and more. Coffee houses and restaurants supply a wide range of
refreshments and many have outdoor dining and live entertainment. The
park along the river’s edge is a popular place for visitors to unwind after a
long week’s work.
