Beneath the crystalline skies of Chautauqua, New York, opportunities for outdoor enjoyment unfold in a kaleidoscope of vivid images as scholars, artists, and sports enthusiasts follow their passions. Rainbow-striped sailboats glide across Chautauqua Lake during summer; families pedal bicycles down tree-lined brick pathways; golfers navigate the sloping greens of legendary courses. From cozy garden vantage points, watercolorists capture the surrounding untamed beauty on their canvases. A convivial spirit characterizes this picturesque Victorian hamlet, where neighbors eschew electronic communication in favor of face-to-face exchanges.
Glad you are coming to NYS; we have so many wondrous places and such incredible scenery that you could spend the summer here. And Chautauqua is a marvelous place; we attended a Garrison Keillor radio show there, and also stayed in that wonderful hotel pictured above. Hopefully anyone who comes this way will have a wonderful time.

Boulder , Colo also has Chautauqua !
Petoskey, MI also has a Chautauqua! There are quite a few throughout the U.S.
Tell me more about Petosky’s Chatauqua. My mother and family have gone for years to the New York site but I am from Michigan and would love to take my husband to northern Michigan. Thank you for your information.
I grew up in this small town. Its wonderful place to visit in the summer but the area has its attractions all year round.

I love Chautauqua! I played in the Chautauqua student orchestra when I was in college! When
My husband and I visited Chautauqua we enjoyed it together! This past summer I returned to Chautauqua. In one way everything was as good as I remembered, in another way it was even better! Chautauqua offers a combination of charm, history and ideas relevant for living in today’s world. I can hardly wait to go back!
