    "I’ve lived here for 12 years and my only regret is I didn’t get the chance to grow up here. A perfect little town, with a breathtaking waterfront - only 50 miles north of NYC. "
  • Cjnaughti

  • Cjnaughti

  • Trulia User
    "1 hour 20 min train ride to Grand Central. No real jobs on town. Need to drive north or south or catch train."
  • Vandermerwede
    "Not a single traffic light and great hikes. Right next to Cold Spring. Can commute to NYC. Just South of Beacon"
  • Mollyadmana
    "I’ve been living here for 4 years now. It’s a great neighborhood for NYC expats with kids. Amazing schools. "
  • Dstracci
    "I wouldn’t call it a neighborhood, I’d call it an area. I like that it’s quiet but still close to everything and just Minutes away from the village of cold spring which always has something to do."
  • Stephanie
    "I have lived here for 6 years and know everyone of our neighbors. We all came together to help one another in the last couple of storms. Neighbors look out for each other’s kids. It’s a special community within the larger communities of garrison and cold spring."
  • Stephanie
    "Gorgeous neighborhood. Not in town, not too far from town. Nice community of neighbors and access to good schools."
  • Alexanderverron
    "You couldn’t ask for a better neighborhood to commute to Nyc from if you have a family and enjoy being active outdoors."
  • jshoffiett
    "I live here with my husband and small daughter. GREAT town, GREAT school. Beautiful location."
