Home to around 500 residents, Bovina is a refreshing, step back in time kind of place. People wave when they drive past you. You may see kids doing wheelies down the street in the summer. And the fresh country air brings people outside year round to bike, run and walk dogs. A short walk down the street brings you to library, playground and general store. Delaware County NY is a four season vacation destination. In the summertime there are yard sales, farmers markets, fairs and more. Outdoor activities include hiking, biking and fishing. Fall is for leaf peeping. Drive down the country roads, pick apples and pumpkins and enjoy nearby town harvest festivals. Winter is packed full of activities. There are two ski centers nearby that offer tubing, skiing, snowboarding and cross country skiing (as well as summer activities like hiking, biking and concerts). Restaurants often showcase locally made or grown food like cheese, bread, meat, fruit and vegetables. Shops abound, there's always something to see!
