My Lighthouse

If you’ve got little ones under 10 and haven’t checked out My Lighthouse yet, you’re missing out on one of the better indoor play spots along the Hudson. There’s a big main playroom plus two smaller themed rooms loaded with toys — good for sensory play, imaginative stuff, the works. Parents consistently rave about how clean everything is, including the bathrooms (yes, there are changing stations, which matters more than people admit). The staff actually seem to enjoy being there, which makes the whole vibe noticeably more relaxed. Birthday parties book up here for a reason — it’s a solid, low-stress option for the under-10 crowd in Castleton-on-Hudson.
