Cooperstown
Mostly known for being home to the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum, Cooperstown has much more going for it. Lying at the southern end of Otsego Lake, it has a wealth of outdoor activities and fine views for guests to enjoy, along with attractive architecture and interesting historic sites.
Established in 1786, the peaceful and picturesque town has a delightful historic district to explore that contains hundreds of well-preserved residences, businesses, and monuments. Besides the Hall of Fame, there is the excellent Farmers’ Museum and numerous art galleries, while brilliant performances are held each summer for the Glimmerglass Opera Festival.
Due to its stunning setting, Cooperstown has long attracted writers and artists. Its pristine nature and lake also offer everything from hiking and biking to swimming, fishing, and boating.
