Opus 40

This sculpture park was intended to house the works of the designer, but the setting itself became the artist's masterwork. It is possible to visit by appointment on non-open days.

It was part of my Month long fall color trip to New England area and I was looking for something to do while in Poughkeepsie NY. Opus 40 is amazing place lots of hard work put into build the stone walls and the monument by oneman! The place is not very big but this is the place where you can take a walk and has picnic table so you can pack your picnic and enjoy.

My girlfriend and I visited the sanctuary today and we had a great time. Our guide, Kaden did a tremendous job of bringing us around the farm to meet all the animals, describe their various situations and give us information about the different species.It's really a terrific way to spend a few hours, get some fresh air and learn a few things. On a side note, I'd like to address comments in some of the reviews I've read about so called " vegan lectures." We experienced no such thing. What we did learn is that all these animals, big and small have feelings, quirks and characteristics much the same as people. If that's something you can't handle for some reason? Your problem. Anyway, fantastic day! Thanks CAS!

Tiny park by the river. A few picnic tables and benches. We were staying in a house nearby and walked down to enjoy the sunset. I'm glad we did.

Saugerties Marina

Reviewed By ilikemyopinions - New York City, United States

If you're looking for a great way to spend a couple of hours exploring the Esopus Creek and Hudson River, this is it. Our family rented single kayaks and explored the creek and Hudson River for 2 hours. It's peaceful and beautiful, especially if it's a slightly cloudy day.
