Right in downtown Albany near the capital building and scenic Empire State Plaza.. and it's free!

A 40 minute drive from the wedding venue - even though it won't be track season, beautiful downtown with shops, restaurants, and parks

Lots of hiking opportunities in the area! If you're feeling adventurous you can go check out the view from the top of Sleeping Beauty mountain where we got engaged.

Cute town right on the lake with plenty to do and beach areas

Relatively new casino. On the smaller side but you can get food, drinks, and spend some time on the slots or at the tables.
