This is a very popular place with very good food. Has become a go-to place for Brooklyn hipsters....but don't hold that against it.

Generally thought to be the finest dining in the area, although perhaps a little overrated. What isn't overrated are the tables next to the beautiful stream that runs next to the restaurant.

The pizza here is probably the best in our area. It’s about a half hour from our house. Call to make sure of their closing time. We’ve cut it close a time or two by getting there close to 8pm.

This is one of the hottest non-natural attractions in our area. West Kill Brewing has been an up and coming boutique brewer for about 4 years now and has excellent reviews. Visit the beautiful tap bar, with plenty of outdoor seating and fire pits. They also have an assortment of food trucks that are there on any given day. Food can be excellent, but also can be a bit pricey.

Magnificent falls. Taller than Niagara. It's better after a rain, but the newly expanded trail next to the falls is always a pleasure to walk and see. If you want to avoid the crowds, go during the week. Be careful to only parking in legal parking spots. The town of Hunter gets a fair amount of their budget by giving out parking tickets to tourists for parking illegally.

One of three ski areas within 15 minutes. The most challenging and by far, the most crowded on the weekends/holidays. Better during the week. If you don't like to ski or hike, take the chair lift up to the top 365 days a year. There are also zip lines and other tourist attractions.

State Owned Ski area with lower ticket prices than all the rest. Great place for a beginner because of a very good education program with excellent prices. This is a very family oriented resort. The trails are good for all levels of skiing. The snow making here is the best of all of the local areas. They are masters.

It used to be our favorite ski resort in this area because it has challenging trails and a good choice for all other levels. It feels the least crowded in comparison to the others. BUT it is also the most expensive, and the snow making has been problematic the last few years.

This place is the worst! Avoid it like the plague, unless you need to buy a lottery ticket, which is their major source of revenue. Even the dirtiest bodega in the Bronx is cleaner than this place.
