2013 Map of Richfield Springs

About this map

Richfield Springs serves as the primary hub of this northern Otsego County landscape, situated at the head of Canadarago Lake. The village is dense with local history, marked by the Presbyterian Cem and Lakeview Cem, while the surrounding hills are dotted with family-named burial grounds like Marshall Cem and Thurston Hill Cem. To the east, the map captures the northern reaches of Otsego Lake, featuring shoreline landmarks such as Sixmile Point and Hutter Point. The terrain between the lakes is defined by prominent elevations including Rum Hill and Metcalf Hill, which overlook a network of small water bodies like Weaver Lake and Young Lake. This region maintains a mix of agricultural and recreational character, evidenced by the Vaughns Poultry Farm and the Meadow Links Golf Course, illustrating the transition from traditional farming to modern rural use in the early twenty-first century.
