The Old Stone Fort in Schoharie, NY is one of those places that quietly draws you in with how much…read morehistory it holds. At first glance, it looks like a simple old church, but once you step inside, you realize you're standing somewhere that has witnessed more than 200 years of stories. Built in the 1770s as a German Reformed Church, it was later fortified and turned into a defensive stronghold during the Revolutionary War. You can still spot a cannonball hole in the wall a little visual reminder of how real that history was. The museum complex is spread out beautifully, with several old buildings and scenic grounds that make it easy to wander around at your own pace. Each building feels like a glimpse into a different part of Schoharie's past from farming and school life to vintage machinery and military history. The volunteers here really add to the experience they're kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about the history they're sharing. It's the kind of museum that doesn't feel overly polished, but that's exactly what makes it charming. You can sense the age of the wood floors and the craftsmanship in every display. It's quiet, peaceful, and even a little haunting in the best way, especially if you walk through the small cemetery nearby. If you enjoy exploring local history or hidden gems off the main tourist path, the Old Stone Fort is definitely worth a visit. It doesn't take long to go through, but you'll likely leave thinking about how much life and resilience are preserved in those old stone walls.

The drinks, food, service, staff and vibe were great. They accept/prefer credit cards and allow leashed, well-behaved dogs, even in the Beer Garden. Bathrooms are limited to one person or family group at a time. Masks required when ordering. Hand sanitizer available, and staff was wearing masks CORRECTLY! With such a dearth of fun activities these days, I don't know why they're not sold out every night! Get tickets with the FB page links. It's only 17 miles from Delmar- a beautiful drive less than a half hour. Follow on FB or check the Albany Times Union for movies. There are several each week. My description for those who know these places, is: if the Indian Ladder Brewery and the quirky Strand Theater in Schroon Lake had a baby, it'd be this!

Definitely want to go back. I'm gonna do a little side rant about Yelp reviews here because there's something I don't get. I see a lot of great reviews and then a 4 star review. If everything was awesome just give it a 5. Those 4s add up and I feel like people that use Yelp are always looking for the great reviews. You get a 5 and 4 from two people that love something. Now you have a 4.5 that should have been a 5. Definitely order a cookie.

This is a fun little railroad museum describing the history of a five-mile railroad that ran in…read moreSchoharie County which was torn up 80+ years ago. It is small in size and cannot compare with larger train museums, but if you are interested in the history of the area or trains in general you probably will enjoy your visit. They have an authentic railroad combine passenger car on display which originally ran on the line, as well as an old wooden D&H caboose, a flat car loaded with old farm equipment, and a boxcar. Inside the coach are magazines to read, a small Brio train layout for the kids, and a small model railroad to watch with three different track scales (N/HO/O). Inside the larger building is the D&H caboose which you can go in, as well as a recreation of an old workshop and freight house with lots of various period-correct tools and freight to move. The smaller building is the old station house and it has a working telegraph, a recreation of the waiting area inside (with lots of train pictures and train decorations), and some newspaper articles. Sadly, a map showing the route of the railroad and how it fit into the local area was absent. They had an excellent D&H system-wide map but that just showed Schoharie as a dot. Other facilities on the premises include an old water fountain, some barns or mill buildings, and a weigh-house. We didn't go in them except to use the bathroom, but apparently some are open at certain times for public events. The staff were super friendly and knowledgeable. I didn't let on that I was a railroad buff and let the tour guide tell me lots about railroad history. It is a nice, though small, museum. There is no charge to enter, but donations would certainly be welcome. There is enough there for a train fan to be interested in local history, but I am not sure how much kids who just want to "see and play with trains" would get out of it.

When the Albany & Susquehanna Railroad (later Delaware and Hudson Railroad) passed through the northern portion of Schoharie County in 1828 from west to east, through Cobleskill and Central Bridge, the people to the south in the Schoharie Valley thought that the A&S would possibly build a branch south to serve the valley, but the A&S had no such plans. It wasn't until 1865, after the end of the Civil War, that the valley people got together and chartered the Schoharie Valley Railroad. By the next year the railroad had completed 4.2 miles to the town of Schoharie. With no additional funds, the railroad couldn't extend any further. Seeing as how the SV wasn't coming to them, the people in Middleburgh took matters into their own hands and chartered the Middleburgh & Schoharie Railroad in 1867. With connecting railroads, they formed a continuous stretch of nine miles of railroad through the valley. After several rough first years, they got on the right foot and operated together as a single operation, but never consolidating, for many years until the early 1930s. Then the M&S began not paying bills and taxes, and lacked in maintenance, and it's locomotive, built in 1895, was worn out. The SV stopped running to Middleburgh and in 1936 the M&S was closed and torn up. The SV soldiered on, but new paved roads and more trucks in the valley took it's toll and it to closed in 1942.
