Fishkill, N.Y., which means Fish Creek in Dutch, is located on the Hudson River (great boating)about 70 miles north of NYC. Both IBM and Gap have large facilities here. NYC is easily accessible via train or major routes. West Point is 40 minutes west, Danbury, Ct. is 30 miles east, and there are several colleges in the county, including Vassar and the Culinary Institute of America, which is why we have such great restaurants. We're about 1 1/4 hrs to Catskill Mtn skiing. This region is known at the Hudson River Valley and is quite beautiful, nestled between mountains and with the mighty river running through it all.[read more...] |
