Welcome to the One and Only... Gouverneur, New York.

Gouverneur is more than unique. It is the only town of this name in the entire United States. Located in the lowlands of the Adirondack region, along the banks of the Oswegatchie River, Gouverneur is home to expanses of beautiful farmland and crystal clear lakes.

Located within easy distance to the Adirondack Mountain Park and the St. Lawrence River, the area is a truly international area of New York State. The region is a popular vacation destination that includes the Thousand Islands, the St. Lawrence Seaway, and Lake Ontario.

Four nearby colleges offer education, cultural events, and intellectual opportunities. Nearby, is Fort Drum, home to the 10th Mountain Division. Fabulous scenery and excellent quality of life make the Gouverneur area a great place to visit or relocate. Gouverneur offers a thriving business climate, excellent hospital, and a small town atmosphere.

Our picturesque village park is host to regular farmer's markets, Antiques in the Park and Winterblast events. The village park is bordered by churches, the library, museum and main street shops. Gouverneur is also home to the Gouverneur St. Lawrence County Fair.
