Downtown New Paltz

Our campground was not far from New Paltz which is a cute college town about 20 minutes from the Hudson River up in the Catskills. It has a fun artsy vibe and draws people all the time for long weekends. We spent a few hours walking around the main street which had lots of fun art and lots of little shops. There were some awesome vintage and antique shops we hopped into, too!
(not the Hudson River -- this is the Wallkill River)
New Paltz has a lot of NY state history and there are many original buildings in the downtown area. Many dating back to the 1600s when the town was founded! Today it is a funky college town with a lot to explore!

Finding cool vintage shops and seeing those original 17th-century buildings must have been a treat. And that photo of the Wallkill River looks so peaceful.

All I knew of New Paltz was there is a SUNY there! Cool to see what it's like there.
