With the current focus on outdoor activities that allow for easy social distancing, Waterford, NY offers both singles and families lots of opportunities! The oldest incorporated village in the U.S., Waterford’s quaint and historic downtown and waterfront provide a variety of fun options if you are looking for a local “getaway”. Peebles Island State Park and the waterfront promenade offer ideal spots for fishermen and women to cast a line. Hungry visitors can seek out one of the many grassy areas along the waterfront, throw down a picnic blanket and relax outside with lunch or dinner (order some takeout from one of the restaurants on Broad Street just a few minutes walk away). For those looking to get some exercise, walking or biking on Peebles Island and along the promenade both supply some lovely water views! If you want to get in the water, launch a Kayak and soak up the sun on the serene waters of the Hudson. The Waterford recreation center also features both tennis and basketball courts. At the tip of Southern Saratoga County, a visit to Waterford is a fun way to spend a morning, an afternoon or the entire day!
