Planning to visit the Catskills and wondering if Uber/Lyft is reliable with a reservation. Or should look for a local car service?
(on the way back I'm going to NYC so I'll just take the Trailways bus back from Hunter)
I'm planning to visit the Catskills from NYC and stay at Scribner's Lodge over the weekend, but unfortunately I can't drive. I'm looking for some insights on what to expect and any advice you want to give. I have a few questions:
I'm planning to take MNR to Poughkeepsie and Uber/Lyft to Hunter from there. Is that feasible? Are there Ubers/Lyft available in Poughkeepsie that are willing to drive to Hunter?
Seems like the Kaaterskills trolley has permanently ceased operations. Are there any other public transit options in Hunter? Is there any way to get around town to nearby areas without your own car? Uber/Lyft/taxis? Is Hunter walkable (like if I want to visit cafes/restaurants in the area from my hotel)?
Is it feasible to visit Kaaterskill Falls without a car? Are there any shuttles or car services there for tourists?
Any hiking trails that are accessible without a car from Hunter?
Any other advice would also be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
