 clianninij; village; is located, to wliirii tiie tide of lashion turns ever}' summer as its 
 reudc!Z-vou8 and resort. Twenty-five years ago Riclifield Springs was scareely ivnown, 
 but now it comjietes vvith older and larger places for the first rank among summer and health 
 resorts. Tiie village nestles at the foot of hills which rise on three sides, tempering tlie high 
 winds and lending charm to the landscape. Every pathway that leads through the neighbor- 
 ing forests and every lake within the scope of its view has l)een made famous in romance by 
 Fknnimoke Cooi'er. The Sulphur Springs first attracted attention to Richfield, and now there 
 are sixteen mineral springs in and about the village, with as many different compositions. 
 Amusements are in great variety; sailing, boating, fishing, hunting, and sports of field and 
 lawn. Nature has generously prepared for the summer population's reception, and her gifts 
 of the waters, of hills and dales, of woods and shores have been supplemented with all facil- 
 ities for comfijrt and pleasure, and with safe-guards against disease. A line of omnibusses 
 make regular trips to Walnut Grove, the Lake House, Gano's Grove, to Waiontha Observatory 
 and other points. Famous is the twelve-mile drive around Canadarago Lake, whicli is but 
 one mile distant from the centre of the village, and stretches out its lovely surface for 5 miles 
 by 2 miles in width From Lakeview the best view of the lake is obtained. A drive of six 
 miles by stage or tally-ho brings one to Otsego Lake. The Van Horuesville Caves and Falls, 
 ten miles distant from Richfield, are in a romantic glen, such as the hills in this lake region 
 are rifted with. 
 
 The Spring House and New American Hotel are the principal hostelries, both highly 
 comfortable and furnished with such improvements as passenger elevator and the electric 
 light throughout. Allen's Lake supplies the village with the purest of water. Withal Rich- 
 field's hygienic conditions and picturesque situation, 1700 feet above the sea, seem to have 
 foreordained it as a Mecca for the seekers after health and rest.
