Experience It

Canal Place

The quaint shops, antique malls, galleries, restaurants, old mill buildings, and scenic views along the waterfront of Canal Place in Little Falls, offer visitors everything from the arts to natural history all in one area. After taking in the history of the old mill buildings and shopping the hundreds of antique vendors, be sure to walk to Benton’s Landing to see the remains of an ancient aqueduct connecting the old canal to the port facilities that once existed there. Next take a short walk to Lock 17 and Moss Islands to witness the giant potholes carved out of stone by a Pleistocene-era water fall. When you get back, take in an exhibit at the Mohawk Valley Center for the Arts and enjoy a meal at one of the canal-side eateries. Canal Place is a 12-minute drive from Grand Colonial Bed and Breakfast.
