Betty and Wilbur Davis State Park
Perched atop a hill in Southern Otsego County, Betty and Wilbur Davis State Park provides spectacular views to the south and west. Nearly two thirds of the park is blanketed by a forest of hardwoods, intermixed with smaller areas of conifer plantation. The remainder of this 200-acre property is occupied by gently rolling meadowlands and two ponds. The park offers 6 newly built full-service cottages and a variety of recreational opportunities. Its expansive views and tranquil surroundings make it a particular favorite among birdwatchers and hikers.
