Olive
Set at the eastern heel of the Catskills, the Town of Olive hugs the western basin of the Ashokan Reservoir. It’s situated near the geographic center of Ulster County and consists of nine unincorporated hamlets, the better-known of which are Olivebridge, Boiceville, and Shokan—all were relocated over a century ago when New York City flooded the Esopus Valley to create its deepest and second-largest water source. The arched Dividing Weir Bridge over the reservoir acts as a gateway between both sides of town, but it's the landmarked c.1885 covered crossing over Esopus Creek that's referenced by the neighborhood. While Olive’s past depicts a place quite literally on the move, the lifestyle here is every bit slow and relaxed, surrounded by scenic wonder at every turn. Whether you seek full-time residence or a weekend escape within easy reach of Manhattan, you’ll find Olive an ideal place to branch out.
