Ashokan Reservoir and Rondout Reservoir, Two of Ulster County’s Most Beautiful Resources

April 3rd, 2008

Ashokan ReservoirAshokan ReservoirHere in Ulster County, water bodies are abundant. We have over 36 bodies that are considered significant enough to be referred to as a lake or pond. Of those 36 lakes or ponds, 20 of them are used as reservoirs. Of the different types of reservoirs, the type that exist in Ulster County are “dam across a valley” reservoirs. This type of reservoir relies mostly on naturally formed features to effectively hold the water. The result is a beautiful body of water that not only supplies humans with drinking water but also contributes greatly to wild life habitat. The two largest and most popular reservoirs in the Ulster County area are the Ashokan Reservoir and the Rondout Reservoir that are owned by New York city and provide some of the water used to supply the city. Thanks to both the Rondout and Ashokan reservoirs, Bald Eagles have made a spectacular comeback from near extinction.

Ulster County Home Value

If you have been reading some of my other blogs, you will remember that the Ulster County real estate market differs greatly from other markets around the nation. Due to this difference, national averages and real estate statistics associated with today’s market usually don’t apply to Ulster County, this is especially true with Ulster County home value. During the current downturn, Ulster County listing inventory has increased creating a slight shift resulting in better pricing but has not dropped at rates consist ant with that of the rest of the U.S. Our Ulster County home values stay this way due to the impact of the NYC home buyer segment on our second home market. This balances out our market and lessens the decline.
