A very nice place to stop and grab a bite in downtown Fishkill. The Tomato cafe serves some fantastic sandwiches and pasta in a cozy little cafe setting. The service was fantastic and the setting was relaxed. The side salads and the bread were delicious. My wife absolutely loved her pasta primavera dish and the ability to get it in a smaller half portion was appreciated as we were traveling and unfortunately couldn’t take left overs with us!

We absolutely love Across the Way! The owners of this store are truly fantastic and friendly people! We stop in here every time we visit the area and they always have some of the most unique items and gifts here. Everything from the toys to the cards, gifts, and jewelry is always interesting and unique and we leave with something.

The Cape May Point State Nature Preserve is always one of our daily routines while vacationing in the area. The trail system is a wonderful way to enjoy the solitude of nature with the family and to unwind from the crowded activities while on vacation. There are many loops in the trail system so the hikes can range from a half mile to 2 miles or more depending on your schedule. There are also nice bird observation areas along the trail and opportunities to enjoy the flora and fauna along the trails!

Cape May Point State Park is a must do when visiting Cape May County! The entirety of the Park is just so beautiful with the dunes, lighthouse, bird observation areas, walking trails, and educational exhibits. We find ourselves here frequently when we vacation in the area because the natural setting of the park is just so very relaxing!

The State of New York Monument at Antietam is just north of the park’s Visitor Center. It was dedicated in 1919. New York’s losses at the Battle of Antietam were 65 officers and 624 enlisted men killed or mortally wounded; 110 officers and 2687 enlisted men wounded and 2 officers and 277 men captured or missing, making a total of 3765.
