Cold Spring is a village in the town of Philipstown in Putnam County, New York, United States. The population was 1,986 at the 2020 census. It borders the smaller village of Nelsonville and the hamlets of Garrison and North Highlands. The central area of the village is on the National Register of Historic Places as the Cold Spring Historic District due to its many well-preserved 19th-century buildings, constructed to accommodate workers at the nearby West Point Foundry, a Registered Historic Place. The town is the birthplace of General Gouverneur K. Warren, who was an important figure in the Union Army during the Civil War.

Commuter service to New York City is available via the Cold Spring train station, served by Metro-North Railroad. The train journey is approximately one hour, ten minutes to Grand Central Terminal.

The village, located in the Hudson Highlands, sits at the deepest point of the Hudson River, directly across from West Point. The town and its surrounding landscape has been a popular subject for Hudson River School painters.
