I was born and raised in my beloved Hudson Valley. It is indeed lovely all through the year - but, it's especially bewitching in autumn. One of my favorite haunts is Sleepy Hollow and wandering the grounds of Sunnyside.

Awww thanks Seester, always remember our time in the hollow together 🧡

My husband and I live in the city so decided to take a little adventure to Sleepy Hollow yesterday via Metro North after seeing this guide. We walked through the cemetery, it is so peaceful and the views together with the foliage were amazing! After that we walked to Tarrytown and ate at horsefeathers. Food is delicious, so is the Hot Cider! I added rum in mine for a little kick, LOL! We hopped back on the train to go home at Tarrytown. We had such a fun Sunday!

[@itsacharminglife]

So glad you got to visit Sleepy Hollow in October and that our guide could be helpful on your journey 🎃

This is how I found you guys. I love Sleepy Hollow, old and new. I actually think that's how my late-grandmother came up with my name via Disney. In 2019, I took my kiddos to Disney for Halloween and I was more excited to see the Headless Horseman than they were lol. Your videos have brought a nice respite from the hectic nurse/singlemom life; they're simply so beautiful. Thank you!

[@itsacharminglife]

What a fun story behind your name! Glad these videos can help 🎃
