You don t have to go far for luxury, it s right in the Hudson Valley.
You could say that luxury only exists in big cities with people who have the money to pay for it. You could say that, but you d be wrong. Luxury is right here in the Hudson Valley. Specifically, I m talking about New Paltz. Even more specifically, I m talking about the Mohonk Mountain House.
According to Travel and Leisure, Mohonk Mountain House was named amongst the best all-inclusive resorts in the U.S. It ranks number 10 on the list of 14. It was highlighted for their well-planned kids program, outdoor hiking, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, and skating on the rink. Mohonk Mountain House is a 251 room Victoria Castle surrounded by the Shawangunk Mountains, which is a world-class rock climbing spot.
