If you would prefer to stay near Nevis (in which case you should also rent a car), the following hotels is convenient:
  1. Ardsley Acres Hotel
    Tel: (914) 693-2700
    For those of you staying at the Ardsley Acres directions to it are quite simple. Just follow the directions for getting to Nevis. Once you're on the Saw Mill River Parkway going North instead of turning left as you get off the Parkway at exit 17, turn right. Take the next possible right and you'll be on the road that runs in front of the Ardsley Acres. In fact you can see the hotel from the Parkway on your right just before you get to exit 17.
