Our History
In 1992, Glenn Carlberg and Bea Sattler opened the Hurley Country Store, a wonderful treasure trove of old-time general store goodness. Located in historic Hurley, NY, the Hurley Country Store is a stone's throw from a collection of early Colonial American stone houses. The building currently housing the Hurley Country Store has been a gas station and a general store, but never did its walls contain the variety of wonderful specialty items that they do today.

Historic Hurley
Established in 1662, historic Hurley was, in fact, for two months the capital of New York State. In 1777, after the British burned the city of Kingston, the government moved temporarily to Hurley while the buildings in Kingston were being reconstructed. The Old Guard House - known as The Spy House - was built before 1685 and is the oldest in Hurley. Designated a National Historic Landmark, it was here that a British spy was imprisoned in the cellar and later hanged on a nearby apple tree. One of the stone houses in Hurley is credited with the honor of hosting George Washington in 1782. The entire area was designated a National Historic Landmark District in 1961. Nestled between historic old stone houses and a thriving corn-farming community, Hurley is a fitting location for a general store. It was a stop complete with a train depot on the New York, Ontario and Western Railway. Its presence can still be felt along Depot Street. It is the perfect place for the Hudson Valley's mecca of model railroading supplies!
