There is nothing worth seeing/doing here except visiting the winery and buying organic vodka at the distillery across the street. If you have problems with alcohol, run away!

Clermont is a beautiful park on the Hudson River. One may tour the former home of Robert Livingston or stroll through the gardens. The rolling lawns among the tall trees are the perfect place to enjoy the rive views or have a picnic.

This was a great evening. The tour starts with a walk down a garden path lined with carved and lit jack-o-lanterns. You are met at the door to the Clermont mansion by the family’s maid. Various ghosts appear as you walk through the mansion - each from a different era of the home’s history. The tour ends at a wood fire where you roast marshmallows. There is hot-spiced apple cider and penny candy in the museum gift shop. We had a fantastic time. This is something historical/educational, fun and different to do - no Jason, Freddy or zombies jumping out at you. Kudos to all the actors/volunteers who put this event together.

This is one of the oldest and most historically significant of the old Hudson River estates that is open to the public. The house itself is of some architectural interest, and the grounds also feature an interesting little museum, which provides info on the history of the Livingston family and their role in American history. If you're in the mood for a low-key history lesson in a very pretty spot, then this, or several of the other nearby estates, represents a good choice. For a little taste of the tail end of the Gilded Age, be sure to watch the video interview with the elderly Honoriah Livingston in the visitors' center. If you're into this sort of thing, I'd also strongly recommend the Roosevelt estate a half hour to the South.
