Newburgh, New York — Offering Resplendent Views Of The Hudson River

Newburgh is located on the Hudson River in Orange County and offers pristine views and a small city feel replete with access to New York City in about 60 minutes by rail or by car.

Families can enjoy boating, shucking for oysters, perusing the area’s shops, galleries, and eating at various cafes, and students can attend St. Mary’s College. Those who enjoy history can also visit the headquarters of George Washington used during the Revolutionary War stationed at the river where he kept watch and that now is also the site of a lovely park.
