Our Notes
Rip Van Winkle was a fictional character from a short story by Washington Irving published in 1819. The story’s setting takes place in the mountain range behind the restaurant.
While hunting one day Rip came upon the ghosts of Henry Hudson playing Nine Pin. After drinking some Ale that was offered to him, Rip fell asleep for twenty years.
