Directions

Car

Tarrytown and Sleepy Hollow are easily accessible from the northeastern United States of America via interstate highways I-87 and I-287 which cross the Hudson River at Tarrytown on the Tappan Zee Bridge. I-95 runs nearby. We are 2.5 hours from Philadelphia, 3.5 hours from Boston, and 5 hours from Washington, DC.

Train

Metro-North Railroad—Hudson line. Express service between Tarrytown station and New York City’s Grand Central Terminal is about 35 minutes, and just a few minutes longer from Sleepy Hollow’s Philipse Manor station. Local service is available between other Metro-North commuter stations. The Sheraton, Sleepy Hollow Conference Center and other local hotels offer shuttle service to and from the train station.

Amtrak. Long distance connections are available in New York City’s Penn Station and at Metro-North’s Croton-Harmon station. Amtrak connections available to VIA Rail Canada.

Plane

Westchester County Airport, 240 Airport Road, White Plains, NY 10604, 914-995-4860 (airlines). The closest airport, about 30 minutes drive from Tarrytown and Sleepy Hollow. Direct service to destinations within the United States, connections are available to major international cities. Rental cars are available on premises.

Stewart International Airport, 1035 First Street, Newburgh, NY 12553, 845-564-2100. An alternative to the congestion of the 3 major international airports. Rental cars are available on premises.

Newark Liberty International Airport, Newark, New Jersey, John F. Kennedy International Airport, and LaGuardia Airport: The three major international airports in the New York City area offer service to just about anywhere. Rental cars are available. For connections to rail, look for bus service to Grand Central Terminal. Most of our local taxi and livery cars offer service to and from the three internationals. New York City yellow cabs will take to you Tarrytown and Sleepy Hollow in a pinch, but the fares will be exorbitant. Ask if your hotel offers airport shuttle service.

Bus

Bee Line System. Westchester County’s bus service provides access to White Plains and other locations in the county. Schedules and route maps are available on-line and at the Tarrytown train station.

Port Authority Bus Terminal in Manhattan is served by twenty bus companies whose routes cover the northeast United States. Take the shuttle subway (S) from Times Square to Grand Central Terminal where you can connect to commuter rail to Tarrytown and Sleepy Hollow.

Get around

Getting around the villages of Tarrytown and Sleepy Hollow depends on whether or not you are staying in local lodging and what you want to see. If arriving by train from New York City and planning only a day trip within Tarrytown’s quaint Main Street area, you can easily get about on foot or by local taxi. Sleepy Hollow’s downtown area and historic attractions are a bit of a walk from either train station, but manageable if you enjoy walking and aren’t pressed for time.

If you stay in local hotels or motels, your own vehicle, taxi service, or ride shares are something of a necessity. Expect significant traffic delays on October weekends!
