You'll feel like you're in a storybook when strolling the Main Street of Catskill with its colorful Victorian houses, delicious local restaurants, and a vintage movie theatre marquee. This Hudson River Valley town is only 100 or so miles from bustling New York City, but when you've reached the slow pace and natural wonders of the town of Catskill, you'll feel like you're in a different world. This riverside sanctuary is very accessible, seeing as it's close to Interstate 87, US Route 9W, and in manageable driving distance of most major east-coast cities. Residents in Catskill are less than a half-hour drive from Kaaterskill Falls, a breathtaking and often snow-coated two-tiered waterfall. The locals stay entertained at the Catskill Animal Sanctuary, and a host of exciting local events. This laid-back riverside community offers several historic homes as well as affordable apartments and townhomes available for rent.
