It is closest to the house if you need anything. I'm not a fan but sometimes it makes sense and now they even have organic options. Open 42/7.

A most enjoyable full day tour of a Shaker village as they left it in the 1950s. Exhibits of woodworking, farming and metalsmithing continue. Worth the 45 minute drive!

The estate was home to Frederic Edwin Church (1826–1900), one of the major figures in the Hudson River School of landscape painting. The centerpiece of Olana is an eclectic villa which overlooks parkland and a working farm designed by the artist. The residence has a wide view of the Hudson River Valley, the Catskill Mountains and the Taconic Range. Church and his wife Isabel (1836–1899) named their estate after a fortress-treasure house in ancient Greater Persia (modern-day Armenia), which also overlooked a river valley.
Olana is one of the few intact artists' home-, studio- and estate-complexes in the United States; it was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1965. The house is also a prime example of Orientalist architecture. It is owned and operated by the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation, and is also supported by The Olana Partnership, a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization. The main building is an architectural masterpiece designed by the architect Calvert Vaux working closely with Church. The stone, brick, and polychrome-stenciled villa is a mixture of Victorian, Persian and Moorish styles. The interior remains much as it was during Church's lifetime, exotically furnished and decorated with objects from his global travels, and with some 40 paintings by Church and his friends. The house is intricately stenciled inside and out; Church designed the stencils based on his travels in the Middle East. The house contains Church's last studio, built as an addition from 1888 to 1890.

There is an old iron bridge that crosses the Kinderhook Creek with an amazing tall waterfall just past the bridge. On the West side of the bridge stand several huge brick and stone mill buildings from the 1800s. North of the East side is a town park where you can barbecue and picnic, with the town watering hole within walking distance below the dam.

This is really a great bar besides a very happening restaurant. The food is good and the locale is popular. There is the noisy pub room as you enter, a larger grand dining hall just beyond and in good weather the outdoor backyard with fountain. This is a scene if you are looking for it.

Great food served in a converted factory building. The food here is very good, wine list is big. There is a performance space that also serves food and liquor, one of the few large venues in these parts. Look for its roster of entertainment.
