I'm spending Xmas in New York and thinking of taking my wife + 2yr old up for a few days to visit Beacon. I've been to it years ago while single. Curious if it's family-friendly, cozy, fun to spend a a few days in after Christmas?
I am hoping to get my husband some gift cards to local coffee shops, breweries, etc for christmas. Anyone know of places around Beacon that sell physical gift cards?
Hey all,
I just moved to Beacon and I'm looking for either a BJJ or a CrossFit gym to join. Looks like the main options are:
BJJ - Evolution Grappling in Beacon (and Fishkill) and Black Hole BJJ in Wappingers Falls
CrossFit - Ascension Athletics in Fishkill and Orchard Valley CrossFit in Newburgh
I'm interested to hear if anyone has trained at any of these gyms, or others in the area, and can provide recommendations or feedback on programming, coaches, community, etc.
Also if any of the CrossFit gyms include any strongman programming (stones, tires, yokes, kegs) that would be a huge plus.
Thank you!

Hi all. I was wondering if there were any support groups for men in Beacon or surrounding areas? Any shared experiences would be greatly appreciated.
Does anyone know what happened? Their website is down and they have an updated social media in a while. I walked by there last week and didn’t see anything about them closing. It’s a really great spot and the owners are awesome, I’m shocked.

Hi all.. wife & I will be in weekend this weekend and looking for bar, brewery & food suggestions. We are staying Fishkill and were planning on Ubering (are Ubers usually available) over to Main Street in Beacon. A few places caught our eye Happy Valley Arcade bar seems like a good spot to start (4pm-ish?) and maybe check out Roosevelt bar. Two Way Brewing Company & Hudson Valley Brewing Company seemed like cool spots too. Any other places we should consider? Places with music, good shareable apps & laid back vibes are what we are looking for.
Heya, does anyone know any good volunteering opportunities in the area?

Hello! Anyone know where I can buy a good German chocolate cake in Beacon/Fishkill/Wapp/HJ? Ty!
I'm 24F moving from Staten Island to Beacon. I used to live in Westchester and fell in love with the Hudson Valley while I was there but moved back to SI for a little when in between jobs. I'm just scared about moving by myself and meeting people in both the friends and dating sense. I know NYC is usually suggested for young singles, but I much prefer nature, quiet, and community and want to live somewhere with people who enjoy the same. Anyone have any experience/advice they could lend me?

Just a light vent haha, Beacon is so beautiful. My family has lived here for 25 years, and I cannot get over how much the powerlines kill the views here, I wish they put them all underground when they were tearing up the sidewalks this summer.
Anybody know if that’s in the cards for the future?
Hello - Looking for a new vet here. We have been using the Beacon Veterinary Associates on Main St. for a while. It's a great vet... if you're wealthy. The people at BVA are very nice and the place is fine, but the costs are totally ridiculous. They are more expensive than when we lived in NYC. It feels like straight up price gouging IMO. Had to do some routine checkup stuff and get annual allergies addressed this summer and it required 2 visits and cost over $1,000 for an otherwise very healthy doggo. I have had dogs for almost 20 years and rarely, outside of emergencies, have I paid this much money.
Any other recs in the area? I would go back there if I had to, but I don't want to be exploited on price bc there's high demand.
Any other VHS enthusiasts in town? Anyone looking to hang out every now and then for a watch party?
Wow. That is all. More funny that more parents from Georgia were visiting. Little taste of home in the Hudson Valley.
Does it feel like the shelves are always empty to anyone else? It seems like they’re perpetually one day away from a restock. Do they just under-stock for demand? Is there ever a “good” day to come?
Any recommendations for an appliance repair person in town? Our fridge constantly drips water from the freezer to the fridge portion and would love to have someone take a look at it. TIA!
Hello! My family is planning a move to Beacon around May next year and we need to find a daycare for our twins, they will be around 1 yo when we move. We did some research online and we’re struggling to find an affordable daycare that will have two openings. We’re aiming to find an in house daycare because they’re usually more affordable. The daycare doesn’t necessarily have to be in Beacon, Wappingers Falls, Fishkill or surrounding area works too. If anyone has any recommendations please share. Thanks!
Hello - Wanted to start a thread here with some suggested activities or clubs for adults in and around Beacon, Wappingers, and Fishkill. For instance, I saw there is a frisbee golf league at Beacon Glades. Any suggestions would be helpful. Interests include hiking, gaming, ping pong, darts, bowling, dodge ball, kick ball, cooking, other stuff.
It’s getting closer and we want you to make connections!

Hi everyone, I'm going to Beacon and Cold Spring on a foliage cruise from Manhattan to see the foliage colors. What is the best weekend to see the peak of the foliage in Beacon? My cruise is on Saturday the 12th, but I think it would be a bit early or do you think the peak will be there by that weekend?
