A New York vacation rental is the perfect choice for anyone wanting a "bright lights, big city" vacation rental experience, a secluded and wild wilderness vacation rental experience, or even a spa vacation rental spent rubbing elbows with the rich and famous. The Empire State can provide all of these and more!
 
Of course the first destination that comes to mind for a New York vacation rental is The Big Apple itself, New York City. Home to Times Square, 42nd Street, and the Great White Way of Broadway, New York City is the city that never sleeps and a New York vacation rental means nonstop entertainment. In New York City, you can eat cuisine from a different country for every meal; you can visit the Statue of Liberty, the first sight many of our ancestors had of this great nation; and you can catch a Tony-winning Broadway show – and that’s all in just one day! But a New York vacation rental has so much more to offer!
 
New York is home to two gorgeous flower festivals: Rochester, New York is home to the Lilac Festival every May where almost 400 lilac varieties are in bloom, and Albany, New York is home to the Tulip Festival, also in May, in which thousands of tulips bloom in celebration of the town’s Dutch heritage. If celebrating food is more your style, Coney Island, New York is home to the annual Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest while Long Island is home to the Long Island Pizza Festival and Bake-off…or head on up to Buffalo and snack on a buffalo wing at the Anchor Bar, the bar that first served the American favorite.
 
If you like a little history with your vacation rental, stop by White Plains, New York and see General George Washington’s former headquarters at the Jacob Purdy House. White Plains alone has nine official sites listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Speaking of George Washington, the Montauk Lighthouse in the East Hamptons was commissioned by our first President himself! And Buffalo, New York has both the Edward M. Cotter fireboat, the world’s oldest active fireboat, but can also lay claim to being the first city to have electric street lights.
 
But if the New York vacation rental you’re looking for is just one full of rest and relaxation, The Empire State can provide that, too. Syracuse, New York gets more snow every year than any other large city in the nation and continually wins the Golden Snowball award among upstate cities – a perfect destination for some snow-filled, winter fun. Letchworth State Park in Rochester, New York is often called "the Grand Canyon of the East." And Long Island has the Hamptons and Fire Island National Seashore, a long, Barrier Island, for recreational fun.
 
So come to New York on your next vacation rental – chances are you’ll go home singing their state song, "I Love New York."
