Hobart Book Village Banner

Hobart - The Book Village of the Catskills - is located along the beautiful West Branch of the Delaware River.  Come and make a day (or weekend) of it. Nearby attractions include the Delaware County Historical Association Museum and Library, Hanford Mills Museum, the Delaware & Ulster Rail Ride and, of course, the 18-mile Catskill Scenic Trail, which passes right through Hobart.  Nearby are Cooperstown, home to the Farmer's Museum, Fenimore House Museum, and The Baseball Hall of Fame; Oneonta (Soccer Hall of Fame) and Cobleskill (Howe Caverns).  Good food and lodgings are available in the area.  We look forward to seeing you here!

The Hobart, NY area has many features to recommend to its tourists, second home owners, and retirees.  Hobart is located 3 miles from NY State Route 23, on NY State Route 10, between Stamford and Delhi. 

To Quote an article in the November 25, 2005 "Escape" section of The New York Times by John Motyka, "This part of the state, North of the Catskill Park proper in rural Delaware County, rich in scenic views framed by undulating lines of hill, field, and sky, is known more for quiet than for commerce. But drive down into Hobart on rural Route 10 and you'll find an adventurous group of entrepreneurs who have decided to make Hobart... a destination for book lovers."





Coming Events:





A Christmas Celebration will be the focus of the December Second Saturday, December 13

Holiday stories will be read to children of all ages by some of our local volunteers and

Bette Chien-Reed promises to bring her dulcimer and play some old Appalachian Christmas songs.
