Hey Friends
I’m Ben. I’ve been a local in Cooperstown, NY for 13 years. In that time, I’ve done a lot of exploring.
I played at All Star Village for 4 summers and worked behind the information desk at the National Baseball Hall of Fame for another 4.
Now I’m in college and I made Coop Drop: your insider guide to Cooperstown.
This guide is packed with real local tips you won’t find in an Airbnb handbook. Every pick is my own! No paid spots, just honest recommendations from 13 years of living here.
