most popular small- and mid- sized meeting space, located on the southern short of Otsego Lake and within walking distance of The Farmers’ Museum, Fenimore Art Museum, National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum, and all of Main Street Cooperstown,” says Harrington.


“Parking is free at the resort, which boasts 30,000-square feet of indoor and outdoor venues, including 14 flexible meeting rooms along with on-site cater- ing,” she continues. “The Otesaga also is home to the Leatherstock- ing Golf Course, one of the most scenic and challenging resort golf courses on the East Coast... great for small group bonding and employee development.”


Utilizing the community’s resources, many small meetings choose to host dinners inside the Hall of Plaques at the


Baseball Hall of Fame, or enjoy a cocktail reception overlooking the lake in the gardens of the Fenimore Art Museum - experiences that only can be had in Cooperstown.


Others may choose to offer their guests a chartered fishing trip for lake trout or walleye, or go on an adventure on the high ropes course at the Clark Sports Center, or take a guided hike instead along one of many local trails.


The Destination Marketing Corporation for Otsego County offers meeting planners itinerary assistance and often serves as a liaison between local businesses to streamline the reservation process.


“The entire experience that Cooperstown offers small meet- ing planners is next-to-none," Harrington asserts.


Each of these destinations provides outstanding meeting venues, opportunities for team bonding, local attractions and off-site spaces for group outings and events. The local convention and visitors bureaus are available, too, to provide an assortment of complimentary services, along with guidance and planning assistance.


Smaller meeting and retreat planners will appreciate these offerings and their attendees will, as well.


Outstanding experiences await groups who choose these and other regional destinations that cater to the smaller meeting and retreat markets.
