As
one of America's truly great
villages, Cooperstown indeed feels like the most special place in the
world. The pristine, glimmering nine-mile long Otsego Lake, the toy
village-like appeal of Main Street, the
well-maintained older Victorian and Colonial homes on picture-perfect
tree-lined streets and the wonderful green rolling hills create a
special sense of place. Additionally, landmarks like the esteemed
National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum, Farmers' Museum, Fenimore
Art Museum, Glimmerglass Opera and Doubleday Field help make this
friendly central New York state location in the heart of peaceful and
pure Leatherstocking Country a truly memorable travel destination. So
many things to do during your Cooperstown vacation, so little time! We
personally return to Cooperstown quite frequently as the four seasons
bring real magic to our travel experiences here.

relax, take in the breathtaking
imagery of our vacation and travel photo essays, and ultimately picture
yourself in this truly remarkable New York state village. Cooperstown's
old-fashioned charm, family values, high fun quotient, and a commitment
to locally-owned businesses make the community a model place to
vacation in grand style, raise a family or start a business. It is
simply a wonderful place to be. Enjoy your visit to Cooperstown!
