Boscobel House and Gardens is a historic house museum in Garrison, New York, overlooking the Hudson River. The house was built in the early 19th century for States Dyckman. It is considered a significant example of the Federal style of American architecture, augmented indoors by a scheme of decorative elements and a collection of furniture, which, while not original to the house, are considered to be representative of the Federal period.
Dyckman built the house in the Westchester County hamlet of Montrose. In an effort to save the house from demolition in the mid-20th century, preservationists arranged for it to move 15 miles (24 km) upriver to its current location, one mile south of the village of Cold Spring, Putnam County, along New York State Route 9D.
