A lot of people make comparisons between Brooklyn and Hudson. Sure, they may be a couple of hours away from one another, but they both boast a creative food scene, beautiful antique shops, and a fun vibe. Couple that with the ability to explore the nature of greater Hudson Valley, Hudson will certainly become a Brooklynite's home away from home.

Our furthest suggestion on the list, but well worth the drive. The Finger Lakes region consists of eleven lakes named that because of their long skinny shape. This region is New York's premiere wine-producing region, so it's a popular destination for wine tastings. From hiking and biking, to boating and fishing, outdoor enthusiasts will have plenty to explore. If epic waterfall selfies are your thing, visit Watkins Glen State Park which sports 19 scenic falls in the park alone.

Lancaster sits in Lancaster County, which contains one of the largest communities of Amish in the whole United States. So not only should you see all the beautiful scenery you can, but take time to chat with the locals and eat some of the made-from-scratch Amish foods and pastries. For some theme park fun, check out the family-friendly Dutch Wonderland, or nearby Hershey Park for some sweet thrills.
