The Best Hotels in the Hudson Valley, New York | Condé Nast Traveler

"If you're looking to truly escape, this secluded sanctuary sits on a spectacular mountain preserve overlooking a lake and delivers the purest form of relaxation. Homey, classic rooms come with porches and rocking chairs, and a daily schedule means there's always something to do: yoga, golf, archery, horseback riding, even wine tasting. Food is included in the room rate, there's afternoon tea and cookies every day, and a library (complete with spare reading glasses) where you can read the paper by a warm fire." - Jessica Chapel, Jessica Sulima
