Peaceful Hike in Chappaqua Woods

Sure, there's no place like home for the holidays; but it's still fun to have a local adventure. Living in Brooklyn, my boyfriend and I decided to take a little jaunt about 45 minutes to Chappaqua, New York, famous home of the Clintons (we even saw their house!). We enjoyed a giant restored farmhouse @Airbnb with fireplace, as well as local hiking in the trail-filled Whippoorwill Park. New Yorkers -- and those visiting New York -- should definitely take a day or two to reconnect with nature and a slower pace of life in this beautiful place. Shameless plug: while you're in the city, though, make sure to book my @NYCPhotoTour for a custom tour with high res photos of your group included! What's your favorite NYC getaway? * ** ***
