Day Trippin | Hudson, NY

Spring has almost sprung and that means a trip to Hudson!! My favorite Hudson Valley town! (Besides Newburgh of course.)

My husband and I first visited Hudson, NY when we were planning our wedding a couple of years ago. We stumbled upon Hudson because we (as many others now) wanted our wedding location to include a barn. We explored many locations, but once we found Hudson and Oak Hill - Livingston House the search was over.

The town of Hudson is basically a slice of NYC in Columbia County, NY only 2 hours north from NYC. It's full of antique shops, great food, lovely B&Bs, and above all else a great community spirit. (I think they have a parade or festival every weekend...no kidding!) Many residents live in NYC and have summer/country homes here. You can spend the entire day walking up and down Warren St. shopping, eating and browsing. 

Here are some of my favorite places to explore in Hudson (Besides Bacon Fest..haha). I hope you get a chance to visit this special town in New York for a day trip or a weekend. By no means is this a complete list of all the great things Hudson has to offer, just some of my favorites (with pics). Visit this resource to explore even more: http://www.gotohudson.net/
