Southern Dutchess County presents an ideal family community, with its expansive Tymor Park – at 500 acres, it’s the largest municipal park in New York State – offering a year-round menu of outdoor activities from fishing and camping to swimming and ice skating.
For those who like to take to the links, there’s the Union Vale Golf Course, one of the area’s finest. The Clove Valley is home to the Clove Valley Rod & Gun Club for hunting aficionados. Housing ranges from affordable to luxury, in a relatively undeveloped corner of Dutchess County.
