Welcome
to Historic Huguenot Street, the site of a unique American
Story
In
1678, a small but brave group of French Huguenot
refugees set out to create a community of
their own . . .and so began an American Story
that continues today.
Here
on the banks of the Wallkill River, they
toiled and their families thrived. Around the community
they started, a special and diverse village grew. |

At
Locust Lawn, just minutes away, the story
of these hardy families continues. Here the grand Federal-style
mansion of Josiah Hasbrouck, a Jefferson-era
congressman, sits proudly at the center of a
gentleman's farm that also features the Evert Terwilliger
home, a 1738 Dutch-style stone house.
Nestled
in the Hudson Valley, steps from the shopping and restaurants
of New Paltz, minutes from the cliffs of the Gunks
and historic Mohonk Mountain House and surrounded
by the natural beauty our special part of the world has to
offer, 300 years of history await you. |
