Discover Poets Walk Park RV rentals for memorable road trips

Poets' Walk Park is a cultivated outdoor space near the city of Red Hook that was designed to inspire poetry, not just passively but actively. It was created in approximately 1850 by Hans Jacob Ehlers, a landscape architect who wanted to take the next step in using nature to inspire people. The landscape is arranged as a series of outdoor “rooms” separated by walls of foliage and actual stone fences with breaks in strategically-placed locations. Local myth suggests that American author Washington Irving was inspired to write Rip Van Winkle while sitting on a bench looking at the Catskill Mountains off in the distance. Camp in an RV near Red Hook and all of this and more will be at your doorstep.
