New York’s spring season is quite an exciting time, with major events like our lilac and tulip festivals taking place all around the state. If you happened to have missed those floral festivities that already took place this month though, then have no fear because there are still plenty of serene attractions that you can enjoy this year. A public garden that will absolutely leave you in awe, see why we love stealing away to this peaceful garden in the Hudson Highlands.

Hidden away at an elevation of over 1,100-feet, Stonecrop Gardens can be found just 10-minutes outside the heart of Cold Spring.
