Kingston New York has always been a destination for travelers. Its rich history will tell that story. Having been the first capital of New York State, Kingston has an amazing history. Not only was it a state capital but it was also a great port. Kingston's location on the Hudson River with the Rondout creek made it the gateway for one end of the D & H Canal.

Modern-day Kingston is proud of its history and happy to have many thriving communities that draw people to the area to visit and enjoy not just the waterfront, but also Uptown Kingston where you find the Stockade District. Kingston also offers easy access to day-tripping into the Catskills for hiking, kayaking, and other eco-tourism opportunities.
