The Cooperstown Pitch.

Located on Main Street in the heart of picturesque Cooperstown, New York, the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum opened its doors for the first time on June 12, 1939, and has grown to become one of the country's most popular destinations. The Hall of Fame is the home of the game’s treasures, where the magic of baseball’s stories and legends are passed on from generation to generation.

With its character and charm, the Village of Cooperstown is an American treasure. For many Cooperstown means baseball, but it also offers golf, shopping and dining, hiking, biking, snowmobile trails, a pristine lake, unique museums, world-class arts, and a wide array of craft beverages.
