Stone Ridge
The historic hamlet of Stone Ridge, where our office is located, has a population of about 2,000 people. Stone Ridge's Main Street is Route 209. You'll find stone structures and gorgeous farmhouses, many built in the 18th and 19th centuries, along your drive through town.
Route 209 runs north to Kingston (about a 20-minute drive) and South to Ellenville (about 25 minutes), and it also intersects with Route 213 right in the center of town. Stone Ridge is just 20 minutes to exit 18 on the Route 87 thruway. The hamlet, which is part of the larger town of Marbletown, is in the Hudson Valley, with lots of farmland and orchards nearby (check out Stone Ridge Orchard in the fall for pick your own apples). Convenient for hikers, both the Ashokan Reservoir and the Shawangunk Ridge are just a few minutes away.
Locals shop on route 209 at MyTown Marketplace for groceries and household basics, and the local farm stand Davenport Farms offers some of the best local produce, as well as meats, baked goods and a seasonal greenhouse. Twilight Acres Farm offers over 100 varieties of fresh-cut flowers for any occasion. Then there's also the locally owned Marbletown Hardware (the World's Only Rock and Roll Hardware Store, complete with mini-museum) right in town. MAMA is located in Stone Ridge and offers adult exercise classes, camps and activities for kids, and hosts many community meetings.
