Roscoe New York is a hamlet (and census-designated place) in Sullivan County, New York, United States. The population was 541 at the 2010 census.

Roscoe is in the southwest part of the Town of Rockland, adjacent to New York State Route 17.

It is named for New York Senator Roscoe Conkling. Roscoe calls itself “Trout Town, USA.” The town is a destination for fly-fishing enthusiasts because of its location at the intersection of two rivers popular for trout fishing (the Beaver Kill and the Willowemoc Creek).

The community is a popular stopping point for people traveling along Route 17 (between New York City and Binghamton, New York) because the facilities are right by the access road to the highway. These include gas stations and convenience stores and of course the Roscoe Diner. We discovered a fabulous restaurant on our journey. We would’t be surprised if people travel in from miles around just go go to the Rockland House Restaurant. We also enjoyed a fabulous stay at the adjoinging motel. We were out all night doing milky way photography and rolled in for a good nights sleep around 1 a.m. This very quiet and extremely clean motel is run by great management. Check out the photos of the salad bar and the serene area of the motel. This motel is often used by people in town fishing and or hunting. We greatly enjoyed our stay.

Roscoe, New York Photography Hot Spot Location

You can do milky way photography galore in Roscoe New York, a small town nestled in the deep, dark milky way skies. There is some excellent day time photography spots in the area and the adjoining cities. This small town is one of our favorites of the Catskills. There is nothing like that small-town feel.

Here are some of the dark sky night photography areas.

Here are some daytime locations where you can do photography. The town is so small you can easily find all of these areas, then venture to the surrounding towns before coming back for milky way photography about an hour after sunset.
