From the travel guide. Select a place for details, a map and what is nearby.
Maybe someday the museum and mill will re-open for tours (it's been closed since 2020), but it's generally allowed to park and walk the beautiful grounds. The oldest Jewish dwelling in North America. Built by Sephardi Luis Moses Gomez in 1714, on what was named "Jew's Creek" for his family (but also known as Mill Creek these days).
A pleasant sight of the Lattintown Creek before it flows into the Hudson. Best viewed from The Falcon (see Do section below), day or night. Look to the bottom of the falls at the "Sucker Hole", long-rumored to be a site for witch covens and prohibition-era mob hits.
Quieter orchard with multiple sites and good variety. Depending on season, strawberries, cherries, peaches, apples are available. Also a pumpkin patch, tractor rides, and bakery!
Pick-Your-Own orchard with apples and peaches, open from late spring through fall. Tractor rides, kids' playground, bakery, pizza, non-alcoholic (sweet) cider, and wine all readily available.
Visit this small local farmers market featuring fresh Hudson Valley fruits and vegetables, meat, eggs, bread, and a small rotation of other vendors. Near to 'downtown' Milton.
See a performance at this excellent live music venue with year-round weekend lineup. No tickets or cover, but suggested donation is $30/person (and 100% goes to the performers). Food and drink also served. Seasonal outdoor seating has the best (only) view of the Marlboro Falls in town. Reservations are highly recommended and can be made online.
Hike this easy 1-mile loop, down to "Two Creeks Point", where Lattintown Creek meets Mill Creek before flowing into the Hudson. Watch for wild wineberries in July.
Upscale Italian dining, great for date night. Reservations recommended.
Italian bakery with old-school feel. Good cookies and biscotti.
A classic New York Italian-style deli. Good hot breakfast and lunch sandwiches on a "hard roll" or sub.
Very good farm-to-table restaurant at Buttermilk Falls Inn.
Great pizza in the local style, right in the village; pizza by the slice is available for a quick bite.
Historic building that overlooks the Hudson River and Lattintown Creek (and the infamous "Sucker Hole"). Well-known for their burgers.
New coffee shop in 'downtown' village of Marlboro. Hours are in flux during opening months.
The oldest vineyard in America, holding New York Farm Winery license No. 1. Well-respected and known locally. Wood-fired pizza available on weekends (cash only for pizza, ATM on site). Regular weekend events (e.g., rosé festival, grape stomping). Reservations for fall weekends recommended.
Excellent, certified sustainable estate wines, from this very well-regarded winery owned by the same family as Benmarl.
One of the largest and oldest kosher winemakers in the world, with concord grape vineyards in Marlboro. Huge variety of wines in an old-world winery atmosphere. Closed Saturdays.
Nice beer and cider in a casual pub setting, on a farm that's been in the Kent family for 200 years. Rotating selection of food trucks, popular on Thursdays and Fridays for happy hour. Close-up views of the Hudson River.
Nice wines and sangrias. Good views, well-liked wedding venue. Friday night happy hour is popular with locals and industry insiders.
Quiet distillery with fantastic spirits and unique natural wines. Locavores: take note of the brandies and applejacks made from local fruits and incorporation of locally-sourced botanicals in gins and genièvres. Distiller Steve owns the property with his wife Kim, and they are often working the tasting room. Private in-depth tastings also available.
100% estate wines made with grapes grown on the attached farm. Outdoor seating with relaxed atmosphere and outstanding views of the Hudson River.
A very nice inn, spa, and grounds, with restaurant on-site (see below).
Small bed and breakfast in the village of Marlboro, open seasonally.
Farm stand and garden center with fruits, vegetables, and flowers grown on-site and throughout Marlboro. Cash preferred. Well-loved vendor at New York City farmers markets.
The family used to operate a bigger farm market on Rte 9W, but now only does retail from the home stand. Great fruits and vegetables at good prices.
Local family farm for over 100 years, commercial-scale producer of apples. Regular vendor at farmers markets throughout the Hudson Valley.
Hepworth's organic fruits and vegetables are well known in the area and often available at the Milton Farmers Market, but owner Amy Hepworth branched into commercially growing hemp a few years ago. CBD flower and derived products like lotions and balms are available for purchase at this roadside shop.
By train
The Metro-North railroad has nearest stops in Beacon and Poughkeepsie. The Beacon station has a cheaper fare to/from New York City and a shorter total travel time.
By bus
Regular buses run from New York City to nearby New Paltz and Newburgh. Charter buses and wine tour buses can be a good option for travel to and between local wineries. A non-exhaustive list:
By bus
As of 2025, there is no regional bus service from Kingston, Poughkeepsie, New Paltz, or Newburgh.
By bicycle
Bicycling on Marlborough's hilly roads can be dangerous and difficult, and is generally not recommended for local transportation.
By foot
Walking within the villages of Marlboro or Milton is pretty reasonable, as most businesses are within a 5-block radius of the village centers.
Choose an airport to see hotels, stations, taxi ranks and car rental desks around it.
