Dobbs Ferry, Riverside village in Westchester County, United States

Dobbs Ferry sits on the eastern bank of the Hudson River, with an elevation of 64 meters and surrounded by parks and natural areas.

The village received its name from an unlicensed ferry service operated by the Dobbs family across the Hudson River during the early 1700s.

The village maintains several art galleries, performance spaces, and hosts regular farmers markets that bring together local producers and residents throughout the year.

The Dobbs Ferry station provides direct train service to Grand Central Terminal in Manhattan through the Metro-North Railroad commuter line.

Continental Army troops under George Washington and French forces under Comte de Rochambeau established their encampment in this location during 1781.
