As the only American journalist who covers baseball and travel exclusively, I have visited Cooperstown on many occasions. I discovered during those trips that the best place to stay is also the oldest and most time-tested: the Otesaga Resort, right on the shores of beautiful Lake Otsego (Glimmerglass Lake in James Fenimore Cooper's Leatherstocking Tales). A venerable member of Historic... More

I really loved staying here. The staff is lovely. The room are amazing. I loved our room with the lake view. Breakfast was great. Historic hotels are very special to me, and this one is a gem. The rocking chairs on the porch are so civilized.

This hotel is absolutely fantastic. The service is great and the food is second to none. I attend a conference here every year and it's one of the highlights of my job. The hotel is a well maintained property that's over 100 years old and the service is definitely a nod to yesteryear. Every where you turn there are staff... More

My husband and I stayed at the Otesaga Resort Hotel in Cooperstown, NY in April 2013 and thoroughly enjoyed our visit! We loved the history in the 100 year old hotel that is extremely well kept. We stayed in a spacious lake view room that was beautifully decorated! It is well worth the few extra dollars for the lake view.... More

Walking into the hotel is like taking a step back in time. The hotel staff are incredibly polite and work hard to accommodate your needs. It's clear they take pride in their jobs. The grounds are beautiful as is the hotel. I travel to the Otesaga from Baltimore at least once if not twice a year to get away and... More

My husband and I frequent the Otesaga for weekend getaway and have always had a wonderful experience. The staff is wonderful, always freindly and helpful. The rooms are always welcoming and meticulously maintained. We just wanted to say thank you again for another wonderful trip and we will be returning in the warmer weather once again.

The minute you step onto the veranda at The Otesaga, a real change happens. Suddenly the worries of the day seem to escape right out over the beautiful lake and dissipate. This enchanting resort offers a nostalgic charm and comfort that is hard to match in the region, or beyond for that matter. Whether it is a meeting or personal... More

While not in the Adirondacks, this hotel is everything you imagine of a grand Adirondack property. Fantastic views, right on the lake. Impecable & friendly service. I might be slightly bias as I'm an addicted golfer and the Leatherstocking course is equally impressive. Excellent greens, great hole variety and challenging finishing hole right over water. What could be better to... More
