Getting to Know: Stanfordville, New York
Stanfordville is not a big place - it’s actually part of the town of Stanford, in Dutchess County. It’s in the southern part of New York. In fact, it’s only 31 miles to Mount Washington, Massachusetts. Salisbury, Connecticut, is even less of a drive; it’s 24 miles east of Stanford.
While Stanfordville is located a bit to the east of the Hudson River, it’s still in the Hudson River Valley. For a Stanfordville vacation rental, that means more than just spectacular scenery and great fall colors. It means that you’re not all that far from any activity you choose: shopping, hiking, golfing, cross country skiing - you can do it all and not leave Duchess County.
Dutchess County also offers a few more relaxed pursuits. For example, there’s theatre and concerts, fine dining and comedy. Thanks to generations of wealthy New Yorkers such as the Vanderbilts, Roosevelts, and Livingstons, there are also historical mansions that you can tour.
So whether you plan to explore Dutchess County or just settle in for the local Stanford-area experience, you’ll enjoy your stay in one of New York’s vacation rentals. As always, the combination of scenery, sports, and history is waiting for you in the Hudson Valley.
