Top Cottage

Poughkeepsie

"Amazing views of the Shawangunks and Catskills from the back porch"
Drive right up, no hike required
House has limited hours, grounds open sunrise to sunset

This was FDR's private hideaway, where he and Churchill once sat on the porch plotting Allied strategy. Today you can wander the same grounds, peek into the modest cottage, and soak up those same sweeping views of the Shawangunks and Catskills.
