Baseball Hall of Fame
The National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum is an independent, non-profit educational institution dedicated to fostering an appreciation of the historical development of baseball and its impact on our culture by collecting, preserving, exhibiting and interpreting its collections for a global audience as well as honoring those who have made outstanding contributions to our national pastime. |
Doubleday Field
Just a few blocks from the Hall of Fame is the birth place of baseball where (as the legend goes) Abner Doubleday played the first game on what was Elihu Phinney's farm. 2012 Game Schedule |
The site of The Farmers' Museum has deep roots in New York State's rural past. The land has been part of a working farm since 1813, when it was owned by James Fenimore Cooper. The Farmers' Museum opened its doors to the public in 1944. At that time, the museum had 5,000 tools and objects. Today the museum's collections number more than 23,000 artifacts.

The Fenimore Art Museum is the showcase of the New York State Historical Association, which is the not-for-profit corporate entity governing the operations of the museum. The New York State Historical Association was founded in 1899 by New Yorkers who were interested in promoting greater knowledge of the early history of the state.

Otsego Golf Club
Just across the street is The Otsego Golf Club. Established on the shores of Otsego Lake in 1894, it is one of America’s oldest courses. The course features nine picturesque, challenging holes. The par 35 layout plays over 3000 yards from the back tees and has a USGA rating of 67.8. Elevation changes, tree-lined fairways, breezes coming off the lake and creeks meandering through the fairways make the course as interesting as it is beautiful. |
