Points of Interest

Red Hook was inhabited by the Esopus and Sepasco Indians prior to the European settlement of the region. Until the mid-19th Century the modes of transportation were the horse and river sloop or steamboat. The fate of river commerce was sealed with the opening of the Hudson River Railroad (now CSX/Amtrak) in 1851. The area is well known for the many mansions perched on the banks of the Hudson River. The town has retained its small-town charm, while offering many fine restaurants, “pick-your-own” farms and a historic village with many antique and specialty shops.
