HOMETOWN GUIDE The Town of Fishkill is nestled in New York State’s lush Hudson Valley in majestic Dutchess County. It is a town steeped in history, culture, and natural beauty. The intrigue and charm of more than three centuries of New York history are captured forever in the town of Fishkill and the surrounding area. You can tour the Van Wyck Homestead Museum, visit the birthplace of Franklin Delano Roosevelt or stroll through the sunny meadows and formal gardens surrounding the elegant Vanderbilt Mansion National Historic Site. There are also a number of cultural and recreational opportunities to take part in. You can grab your clubs and play a round at one of the area’s many challenging golf courses, take a hike on the scenic Appalachian Trail, or cheer at a minor league baseball game at Dutchess Stadium.
