Otsego County is hillier and has a greater proportion of woods than the counties to the northeast. That makes for good hunting, snowmobiling and 4 wheeling. There are more places to hike as well along with an abundance of State Forest land. Many properties have that "Currier & Ives" look and feeling. In the northeast of the county are a few Amish farms. There are also 10 golf courses. Otsego and Canadarago Lakes are huge and offer ice fishing as well as regular water sports. You will find at least 10 public campgrounds and several golf courses. In addition to the well-known Brewery Ommegang, there are several other micro-breweries and wineries. Otsego County is also famous for the Bassett Hospital and its many fine museums. Cooperstown has been considered one of the finest small towns in the US. There are many churches scattered throughout the county and you will find fine dining in the largest towns..
