Zenwood Manor is just over 2 hours from New York City. A car is essential for getting there and exploring the area. The main access routes are the NY-17 E, US-6 E and Palisades Interstate Pkwy S. We strongly recommend a 4x4 or a car with four-wheel drive, especially in winter, to handle snow and gravel roads.
