About Us
Who We Are
Hudson Valley Writers Residency is a Live/Write/Work/Create community at a Victorian House in the downtown historic district of a quaint village The New York Times and Times Union have called the new “it” spot in the Upper Hudson Valley.
Perched hillside atop the main street in an idyllic village setting, this beautiful Victorian house is a creative oasis. Next door, visit the Heermance Memorial Library, and from bedroom windows, enjoy views of the village and Hudson River.
Spend a few days, weeks or months in deep focus on your project; take meals with a multidisciplinary cohort of up to four other artist/writer/housemates; enjoy access to the storied and revitalized village center, with its cafes, wine, vintage clothing and antique stores, speakeasy, apothecary, and health food general store; and benefit from country living along Coxsackie's unrivaled, pristine section of Hudson riverfront.
Where We Are
Area residents from Albany, Athens Cairo and Catskill venture to Coxsackie to dine at our Yellow Deli, Che Figata and brick oven pizza Patrick Henry's restaurants, as well as to imbibe and take in local culture at the speakeasy, Ravish, and new oyster bar at the James Newberry Hotel around the corner.
Connect with high speed WiFi internet, cozy up with fresh linens and revel in the house's architectural charm. Take a break, get coffee or just go for a walk along historic Reed Street and find out first-hand why Coxsackie enjoys a reputation among Hudson Valley hamlets for its warm, friendly culture of welcoming residents and business owners.
We would love to host you and your project!
