Wineries
Some of these wineries are part of beverage or winery trails but they are my favorites stops or destinations.
Bear Pond Winery Bear Pond Winery is the Otsego County’s premier winery offering tastings as well as light food choices to enjoy.
I visit this winery with my wife and bring family when they come to visit. It is a nice stop or a destination for a drive.
