This is a small town beach that seems to be very popular with families with children. There is a medium sized swimming area on the Hudson, with a sand beach and surrounding picnic areas. There seems to be a kayaking launch as well. You can see that upstream there is a rope swing on the […]
This park doesn’t seem to be as popular as the nearby Million Dollar Beach, so in some ways it is nicer as it seems like a more low key place to bring young children. The swimming area is a straight away along the shore so you could do some laps, but there is less of […]
We were traveling with a dog, so they wouldn’t let us into to this park even though we explained that we just wanted to take pictures. So we don’t have the details for this location, but here are the directions and info from their website: Veteran’s Memorial Park Beach About a half mile north of […]

There are concessions, bathrooms and showers, and a large beach with multiple lifeguard stations and swimming areas. […]

This beach is right beside the main road, so don’t plan on bringing dogs who aren’t trained to stay beside you. There is […]

Park at the signed HAGUE BROOK PUBLIC ACCESS lot that is close to a little bridge. You can walk upstream or carefully walk along the left hand side of the road. The fall will be on the left just a two minute walk. There are trails running along the stream, but the one that goes […]
