Traffic Advisory for Sleepy Hollow
The charming village of Sleepy Hollow, with its scenic streets, historic sites, attractions, and special events, is one of the top destinations in the country in fall. Visitors to the area can experience traffic congestion, particularly during October. Allow plenty of time to arrive at your destination and plan to arrive 30 minutes before a scheduled tour or event. Please plan to arrive on time, as we cannot guarantee accommodating you later than your admission time and we do not offer refunds for late arrivals.
