Dutchess County Reviews
Rating 4.14 out of 5 7 reviews
It is very rural and small. Unfortunately it is not very diverse. A lot of issues regarding race are overlooked. Especially in the public schools. The private schools are very nice though.
Beautiful scenery is offered and every season can be enjoyed. Many lakes and rivers provide wonderful boating and fishing opportunities in the summer. There are many mountains and hiking trails to enjoy in the spring. Fall brings beautiful ambience in nature. With winter, people can enjoy snowmobiling, skiing, and ice skating. Great hunting/fishing land. Wonderful restaurants and historical places to visit.
I Love the foliage especially in the Spring and Fall. I really like the hiking experiences and beautiful rock formations. There are some very fine and cheap eat places to dine or takeout. There is lots of shopping and bus transportation if you don't have a car! It's a great place with many experiences to be had at your fingertips!
