Hudson is a beautiful riverside town in the Catskills with a lot going on.

It has tons of cute cafes, lively restaurants and bars, locally owned shops, beautiful waterfall hikes, and more.

It's one of our favorite places and the perfect place to spend a long weekend in the summer. We hope you'll love it as much as we do.

There is also nearby Woodstock, NY (namesake of the famous festival) which is also a super cute town if you've never been!
