Most downtown villages in upstate New York look like ghost towns. Not Saugerties. It appears to thrive. It appears to attract tourists. It has lots of little galleries, cafes and bistros, a movie theater, nice parks, and a world class bookstore (see below). We think it is a jewel and it should be on everyone's list of places to visit. We plan to stay here three days.
An absolute delight is the Inquiring Mind Bookstore. It is an old fashioned bookstore. Lots of non-mainstream books. Quiet, comfortable, sells coffee & snacks, plays jazz in the background. Sometimes they have live music and/or lectures from local talent. This is kind of bookstore that one wishes would never expire. You could do far worse than spending a few hours here.
