The Hudson Valley has a lot to offer...there are beautiful landscapes, stunning homes, a ton of cute stores and now it's home to some of the most romantic cities in the country. It's no real surprise, there are parts of the Hudson Valley that literally look like a scene straight out of a Hallmark movie and it's the perfect setting for love.
Creating a romantic evening can be done easily and it doesn't need to be a whole crazy production. Romance can be shown by going on a nice walk and hike, grabbing a great cup of coffee together, enjoying a nice cocktail or beer, shopping, seeing a movie, exploring a new town or more. Some people think you need to be in a huge city like New York City or Boston to really get romance, but that's not the case there are many smaller places to visit/are easier to get to and you'll still get the same result. It really doesn't need to be anything wild, it's really more the thought that counts and the Hudson Valley has all of this.
