New York Honeymoons
If you’re looking for a great place to spend your
honeymoon without leaving the country, you can’t go wrong with New York State. Although it’s most often associated
with the bustling and densely populated New York City, the state also has plenty to offer in the way of natural beauty. Here is a list
of some of the most coveted honeymoon spots in New York State.
- The
Catskills – The Catskills are truly a sight to behold. These breathtaking mountains contain
over thirty peaks with six major rivers running through them. The Catskills are just a short drive from New
York City, but they are much less crowded and have a decidedly rural atmosphere. Among the most romantic places
to stay in the Catskills are Mohonk Mountain House, a Victorian castle in the midst of a
forest, and Scribner Hollow Lodge, which offers spectacular views
and some of the area’s best wine and
dining.
- The
Adirondacks – The Adirondack Mountains are a separate mountain range located in Upstate New
York. Situated in the midst of the 6.1 million-acre Adirondack Park, the area is rife with natural beauty.
Within the park are numerous bodies of water, including the famous Lake Placid. This nature lover’s paradise
offers an abundance of recreation options, including hiking, fishing, boating, mountain climbing and more.
Romantic accommodations in the Adirondacks include Highlands Castle, Golden Arrow Lakeside
Resort and Lamplight Inn Bed and Breakfast.
- Niagara Falls – Perhaps New York’s most recognizable honeymoon
attraction, Niagara Falls is located on the Canadian border. These majestic waterfalls were popularized as
a romantic destination by the Marilyn Monroe movie Niagara, released in 1953. There is certainly no shortage of
places to stay in Niagara Falls, with many hotels located within walking or viewing distance of the
Falls themselves. Some of the best include the Seneca Niagara, Sheraton at
the Falls and the
Giacoma. There are also a number of romantic bed and breakfasts nearby, as well as
some campgrounds within easy driving distance. (For more ideas, go to Niagara Falls

- New
York City – There’s plenty of romance to be found in the Big Apple. New York City is loaded
with arts and cultural attractions, including the famous Empire State Building and the Statue of Liberty.
Newlyweds can catch a show on Broadway, stroll hand-in-hand through Central Park, take a boat ride on the
Hudson River and enjoy outstanding views of Ellis Island from Battery Park. Some of the city’s finest
honeymoon accommodations include Affinia Manhattan, 70
Park Avenue Hotel and the
Brooklyn Sheraton. (For more ideas, go to Honeymoons in New York
