TWENTY YEARS AT THE DAIRY FEST
A tradition worth keeping — and a weekend worth planning for There are events you attend and events you return to. The Meredith Dairy Festival is...

There is no time for a scenic getaway quite like the fall. As the leaves turn and the weather cools, the Catskills shift into their most cinematic season—golden hillsides, crisp air, and that unmistakable sense that it is time to slow down and reset. The allure of a mountain hike or an off‑season beach trip is as strong as the desire to cozy up before a fire with a good book and a warm drink.
The question, of course, is how best to balance the two impulses: the call of the trail and the comfort of an armchair; the desire to explore and the need to nest. In Hobart, NY—known as the “Book Village of the Catskills”—you do not have to choose. Here, a morning can begin with a walk along quiet country roads or nearby mountain paths, and the afternoon can be spent browsing beautifully curated bookshops, talking with local owners, and discovering new favorite authors.
It is precisely this blend of culture, nature, and small‑town authenticity that has caught wider attention. Vogue offers a view of Hobart, NY you will not want to miss—highlighting not just a weekend escape, but a way of life that many of our buyers and sellers are increasingly seeking out: intellectually rich, visually stunning, and deeply, peacefully rural.
