Livingston Manor is a hamlet (and a census-designated place) in Sullivan County, New York, United States.

But it was not part of the original manor, a huge estate granted by the English Crown about 60 miles (97 km) east in present-day Dutchess and Columbia counties that extended on both sides of the Hudson River.

Records show some of their descendants migrated to in Sullivan County in the late 18th century from Connecticut, purchasing a large tract of land in what is now known as the Township of Liberty.

Other families who acquired land and settled in the surrounding area were the Bascoms, Stewarts, Wests, Harringtons, Williams, Cochrans, Motts, Kimballs, Darbees, Sherwoods, Woodards, Barnharts, and Joselyns.

[5] The area claims to be the "birthplace of fly-fishing in the United States"[6] largely because of trout fishing on the 27-mile (43 km)-long Willowemoc Creek.

The Catskill Fly Fishing Center and Museum is on the northern edge of the town on the Willowemoc Creek.

[7] Since 2004, the community has sponsored an annual Trout Parade (organized by the Catskill Art Society and the Chamber of Commerce).

Livingston Manor's Varsity softball team won the Class D Section 9 State title in 2010 and 2011.

The Boys Varsity baseball team won the Class D Section 9 State title in 2011.

[9] According to the United States Census Bureau, the CDP has a total area of 3.1 square miles (8.0 km2), all land.

The downtown of Livingston Manor, mostly along Main Street, has several restaurants, a large grocery store, several art and antique shops.

It is the scene of an annual "trout parade" in June that draws marching bands, fire trucks and other local amusements.

[10] Numerous times in recent history, heavy rain storms significantly increased the flow of the Willowemoc Creek causing flooding of main street and other low lying areas of the hamlet.
