Lighthouse Thrift

Lighthouse Thrift is a small, cozy thrift store in Richfield Springs, a village in northern Otsego County. The shelves hold household décor, clothing, books, furniture and jewelry, and the mix changes with whatever comes in the door. Secondhand shopping is a good way to stretch a budget and keep useful things in circulation.

Thrift stores reward a slow browse, and a small one like this is easy to look through in a single stop. Donations are accepted, so clearing out a closet or a spare room can go hand in hand with a shopping trip. Richfield Springs is a short drive north of Cooperstown, which makes the shop a good stop for travelers passing through.
