Crystal Connection
116 Sullivan St, Wurtsboro NY 12790.
A hidden gem In this quaint village, at the foothills of the Catskills Mountains, Wurtsboro is a surprisingly charming village. At the crossroads of Route 17 and Rte 209 between Middletown, Bethel Woods and Monticello & between Port Jervis & Ellenville via Rte 209.
We have become a Crystal Mineral Destination for many throughout the area close and far away. We are a Sacred Space one must experience for themselves to Feel, Heal and Connect.
Hours: Open everyday Except Wednesday.
Winter Hours 11am-5pm
- From the GW Bridge, take NJ 17 or the Palisades Parkway
- To NY 17 West / US-6 N [to be renamed Interstate 86]
