Visit Sleepy Hollow

Where the Legend Lives

Bird and Bottle Inn in Garrison, NY.

Inns and Bed and Breakfasts

Small inns and bed and breakfasts for a quieter stay in the Hudson Valley.

For the most characterful way to stay in Sleepy Hollow Country, look to the region’s inns and bed & breakfasts — the kind of lodging with fireplaces in the rooms, honey from the innkeeper’s own hives, and a story behind the front door. Most are set 10 to 25 miles out, tucked among the rolling hills, river towns, and historic estates that define this corner of the lower Hudson Valley. Warm yourself by a working fireplace at the eight-room Bedford Post Inn, raise a glass in a tavern that’s served travelers since 1761 at The Bird and Bottle, unwind at The Abbey Inn & Spa in a former Episcopal convent, or settle into RiverView, a onetime firehouse overhanging a Hudson tributary — and, as a bonus, next to a stretch of road with its own 1887 haunting. It’s an ideal fit for a romantic weekend or a fall foliage escape.
