Cross River places you at the quiet heart of northern Westchester County, minutes from the galleries of Katonah, the horse farms of Bedford, and the boutiques of White Plains. The hamlet blends wooded backroads, stone walls, and a true small-town rhythm with practical convenience: dining, everyday services, and quick connections to neighboring Pound Ridge and beyond. Commuters appreciate the easy drive to the Katonah station and frequent Harlem Line service.
Outdoor time here is a way of life. The trail network at the county’s flagship Ward Pound Ridge Reservation spreads out just south of town, offering miles of hiking, birding, and winter snowshoeing. The Cross River Reservoir frames stunning sunrise paddles and scenic overlooks, while local fields and pocket parks host youth sports and weekend picnics. Cultural escapes are close by, from open-air concerts at Caramoor to seasonal festivals and farm stands.
Families are drawn to the highly regarded Katonah–Lewisboro School District, with acclaimed programs at John Jay High School right in Cross River. Town services are responsive and community-focused through the Town of Lewisboro. For an easy NYC connection, Metro-North’s Katonah stop keeps the city within reach via the Harlem Line’s official station hub.
