Town of Copake, Administrative town in Columbia County, New York, United States.
The town of Copake extends across the eastern part of Columbia County, with the Roeliff Jansen Kill flowing through its center and multiple lakes dotting its landscape.
The town of Copake, established in 1824, developed through iron mining operations that influenced its growth during the nineteenth century and left behind the now-recreational Ore Pit.
Copake preserves its Native American heritage through its name, derived from Cook-pake or Ack-kook-peek, meaning Snake Pond in the indigenous language of the region.
Residents access building permits, hunting licenses, and community services through the Town Building Department and Town Clerk office in the municipal administration building.
Camphill Village in Copake functions as a residential community where adults with developmental disabilities participate in farming, crafting, and social activities.
