Hudson, NY - 2hrs 20mins from NYC
Hudson, NY is one of the Best Weekend Getaways From NYC. The reason Hudson is so well-known is because of its food and antiques. The location excels at both—a it's top choice for rustic fine dining (Ca'Mea) and unique vintage treasures (just about any storefront on Warren Street). But the town's location along the Hudson River, filled with charming historic homes, is another important factor drawing large numbers of New Yorkers and, appropriately, DIY enterprises and developments to the area.
