Sold by The B&B Team 2022! We are very pleased to offer a top-tier Cooperstown New York boutique hotel for Sale. Almost everyone knows that Cooperstown, New York, is the home of the National Baseball Hall of Fame, a two-block walk from the Inn. Many also know that Cooperstown is home to the world-renowned Glimmerglass Opera Company. Among other attractions are a first-class art museum (Fenimore Art Museum), an excellent Farmers Museum, and a Chamber Music Festival.

A lifestyle bonus for owners is the state-of-the-art Clark Sports Center, a mere mile from the Inn. Brewery Ommegang, a nationally celebrated Belgian Brewery, partners with the Inn for several special weekend packages. The result of the very favorable location is a sensational occupancy rate, and a higher than average daily room rate.
