Columbia County

Along the banks of the Hudson river beyond the suburban counties to the south, Columbia County has retained its its rural quality of rolling, rich farm lands, 18th and 19th century buildings, its reverence for the history that shaped its communities and unparalleled views of the Hudson River and the Catskill Mountains.

Every town in Columbia is unique in its features and attractions. From the orchards and horse farms of the central highlands, to the historic estates strung like pearls along the Hudson river, from the high rolling hills of Chatham and Austerlitz to the vibrant antique, arts and theatre life in the city of Hudson, Columbia County offers something unique for everybody.

The county is uniquely accessible, with high speed rail service to New York City along Hudson River and by car via  the Taconic Parkway an the NY State Thruway.  Our small Columbia County airport is a full service facility.

Albany International Airport is 35 miles to the north, boasting world connections without all the mind-numbing stresses of big hub airport.
