NYC Adventure
First time on the east coast? NYC is a great place to visit, but the Hudson Valley is definitely the place to stay! If you're a long-time guest and looking for a day trip - here you are.
It's a 1.5 hour drive. I can't stress this enough, you should avoid driving into NYC at all costs. The closest train station to ride down is in Poughkeepsie (POU) and it'll be a nice ride. If you haven't gone into the city, it's worth planning a nice full day.
Amazing museum, ranks slightly below the Smithsonian in my book! There is a rotational mummy exhibit as well that is shared seasonally.
