Cooperstown
 Cooperstown, New York may not be where baseball was started, but it stands proudly as the internationally recognized home of baseball. Located at the south end of Otsego Lake in Central New York State, Cooperstown is at the heart of a splendid four-season recreational area.
Cooperstown is the birthplace of the Susquehanna, a wonderful river that winds through New York and Pennsylvania, reaching the sea via Chesapeake Bay in Maryland. The town is the home of Glimmerglass Opera, a nationally renowned company with an astonishing history that began in the seventies in Cooperstown’s high school auditorium.
Whether your passion is baseball, golf, opera, museums, sailing or antiquing, you'll have a great time in Cooperstown. You will find many stones unturned. The curve of the fields and hills, the color of the leaves, the shimmer of the water, the shadows and the ghosts, all will conspire to fill your senses. All the hospitality of Otsego Lake, nearby skiing, an endless array of cultural activities, distinctive architecture and tightly-knit but friendly villages, coexist in the Cooperstown area in a natural setting of exceptional beauty.
The Village of Cooperstown retains the character and charm of times past. There are no national chains or franchises in the town and all of the locally-owned restaurants, shops and accommodations are dedicated to the comfort of the traveling public. Be sure to explore the Village lanes to find the best in baseball memorabilia and don't miss the quiet beauty of Lakefront Park.
