HVH’s 12 Stays of Christmas is back, and this is the one everyone waits for all year. Twelve wildly different dream stays, one massive giveaway, and a lineup built to make you start planning trips before you even finish reading. From waterfall views and design forward hideaways to mountain lodges, historic boutique gems, and full reset retreats, this list is pure upstate escapism, wrapped in holiday chaos, and ready to be claimed.

Two stamps down, appetite wide open. At Harvest on Hudson and Half Moon, dinner isn’t merely plated — it’s charted, stamped, and story-driven. Your Passport becomes the thread that ties each journey together: every evening earns a mark, every dish becomes a memory, and every return visit unlocks a new layer of the adventure.
