The 57-acre Minisink Battleground Park is located on the site of a Revolutionary War battle, its hiking trails dotted with relics of that historic past. The park also offers picnic areas, trail maps, and an Interpretive Center with informative displays. 8 am until dark, free admission, dog-friendly.
Across from Bethel Woods Performing Arts Center and Yasgurs Farms, site of the original Woodstock Festival, the Dancing Cat Saloon serves up simple but elegant fare, like the Hendrix Hamburger, Buratta, and Salmon L’orange, plus unlimited sides of live folk music on weekends.
A brickhouse microbrewery a mile down the road, Shrewd Fox Brewery is a bite-size venue with big hops, from local Honey Wheat to Oak Cask Bourbon Porter, offering flights to savor, growlers to go, and front-row seats to the brew-making process at work. A must for beer-lovers of every taste. Open Friday to Sunday.
Home of the original Woodstock Festival at Yasgurs Farm, and just 15 minutes from the Floating Farmhouse, Bethel Woods features performances by such varied artists as The New York Philharmonic and Dave Matthews Band, as well as arts events for the whole family and farmers markets Spring through Fall
