Things to Do Upstate!
Storm King Art Center
Just south of Newburgh, NY, Storm King is a massive outdoor sculpture park.
Hudson Valley Brewery
Really cool brewery space right next to The Roundhouse!
Happy Valley Arcade Bar
Great beer menu, awesome retro arcade games to play and lots of space to hang with a group of friends!
Kingston
New York's first state capital, Kingston is just 45 minutes north of Beacon and the place where we got engaged! There's great shopping and excellent bars and restaurants. We love it there. If you plan on going, reach out and we'll give you our specific recs!
Fishkill Farms
If you're going to be upstate, you have to go to one of the many farms/orchards! Only 10 minutes from the hotels in Fishkill, this one was great to walk through and pick apples and flowers, as well as sitting outside at their cider bar and trying the many varieties they make. Also, apple cider donuts. Gotta get some apple cider donuts. Sloop brewing is also just down the road and in addition to tasty beers, their kitchen is churning out some solid eats, and they've got some fun arcade games in their taproom to play! Worth the visit for sure.
New York Renaissance Faire
The New York Renaissance faire happens weekends starting in August in Tuxedo Park, NY. Obviously, you're busy on the Sunday, but it's a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon ;-)
