The waterfront in Newburgh is a great place to check out if you are looking to grab a drink and/or a quick bite! There are several restaurants and bars along the waterfront and it's also less than 5 mins from the church (tip: may be a nice stop after the ceremony before the reception). Billy Joe's Ribworks has a large outside patio great for enjoying a drink and a cool breeze.

If you are more of a history buff, the beautiful West Point Military Academy campus is about 25 mins away from the Four Points by Sheraton hotel.
