Cooperstown

Welcome to Cooperstown

About 145 miles northwest of New York City, the village of Cooperstown was founded in 1786 by William Cooper, father of James Fenimore Cooper, famed author of The Last of the Mohicans and other novels about early American frontier life. Situated on the southern tip of pristine Otsego Lake, area outdoor attractions include beaches, watersports, fishing, hiking, biking, and more. Baseball is said to have been invented in 1839 by village resident Abner Doubleday, and Cooperstown is most famous for its National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum. A vintage railroad line, the Farmers’ Museum, and the Fenimore Art Museum at the Cooper family’s lakeshore home are other highlight attractions.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Top10Adventures® over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
