We visited this beautiful park on a cold winter morning. Even though it was a Saturday, there weren't too many people around. Along with the beautiful views of the Hudson River, you get a chance to walk along the river in the path that runs parallel to it. We met some friendly locals who offered to take our pictures. Parking was available right outside the park and it was free. The town centre is at a walking distance from here and is totally worth visiting. Loved our visit here and we will be back one day for sure!
Very peaceful park with gorgeous views. Look across the river, and you'll see Storm King Mountain. After a rain storm, if the sun comes out, you might be able to catch some cotton candy skies!
Small local park with a benches, beautiful views of the Hudson River and West Point.
Beautiful. After walking the Main St in Cold Spring, its so nice to make your way down to the water front and relax. Lots of benches to sit and enjoy the view of the mountains. Lots of food near by so you could get some good to go for a little park picnic :)
Take it from a local: the park is not open after dark. It's a beautiful place but on weekends is utterly inundated and overrun with tourists. Not really fun like it used to be unless you like gobs of tourists. Avoid the restaurant on the corner - second-rate.
Pictures are of landscaped shoreline - the newly renovated Dockside Park, and next some 400 tourists queuing for a 75' riverboat in Dockside. When the boat docks, it blocks the views of the mountains, so don't plan on hanging there.

This place should be like a ‘Editor’s Pick’ location. It is so beautiful and serene. Pictures don’t do justice. You can easily spend your evening sitting at one of the benches by the river and enjoy the view of the mountains. Come here with some time here so that you can also enjoy the foods at any local restaurants in the area followed by a scoop of ice cream from moo moo’s creamery maybe.
The most beautiful and enjoyable view of the Hudson River. Amazing town with the best Icecream shop and friendly people.
I used to come here as a child with my family. It's always held a special place in my heart. Tonight was the tree lighting. I didnt think cold spring still did this, but they do. It's a very nice park right on the hudson. Bundle up during this time of year, its freezing. When its warmer out, it's just as lovely.
