Your ride to Cooperstown will take you through some of the most beautiful country on the east coast. We invite you to take a back road or two and seek out the stories many of these towns hold. Like Truxton, NY, birthplace of the “Little Napoleon” John McGraw, legendary manager of the great NY Giants teams of the early 1900’s. There’s a wonderful statue to commemorate him at the crossroads. And did you know that Mark Twain is buried only two hours from Cooperstown, in Elmira, NY? Talk about a town with stories!

Cooperstown is easily accessible from Albany, Syracuse and Binghamton, NY airports, approximately 1:45 from each. Our Cooperstown bed and breakfast offers one of the best places to stay in Cooperstown and is located at 64 Chestnut Street, just two blocks south of Main Street.
