5. Cozy up with your loved ones at one of our amazing glampgrounds like Camp Orenda.

While the idea of camping can be romantic to many, sometimes the ruggedness of the outdoors can take away from the charming perks of your usual date night. So, what's the solution? Find the perfect solution in the middle and take a romantic getaway to one of our scenic glampgrounds! Throughout New York you'll find plenty of places that are great for glamping, but if you're looking to head up into the Adirondacks then Camp Orenda is the place for you.

If you're looking to hike here in the Hudson Valley you can follow the difficult Butter Hill Trail, a 2.3-mile loop on the mountain that's accessible now through November! There's nothing quite like taking on one of our many mountains to bring a couple together or serving as the perfect time to get to know someone on a first date.

7. Enjoy a boat tour out in the Thousand Islands and take a trip to one of our famous castles.

Before anyone yells at me, I'm taking a moment to acknowledge that the structure you're seeing pictured above is not Boldt Castle. Captured above you can see one of the many castle-like structures on the outskirts of Heart Island, waiting to welcome you with their historic beauty. The fairytale-like attraction that draws in visitors throughout the year, this castle of Alexandria Bay is where you'd be most likely to find Cupid if he was truly walking the face of the earth. Heart-shaped landscapes and dreamy scenic settings will quickly ignite the romance between you and your date!
