Excellent place for a great weekend!

This was a fun and modern place to stay. The owners were very attentive and welcomed us very well. We loved the fire pit and the ample televisions, they made for a very relaxing weekend. 10/10

Wonderful Stay!

Beautiful home and property for our stay while our son played at Cooperstown. Very clean and has everything you will need for your visit. My family enjoyed the game room downstairs and watching deer from the deck. Would highly recommend for families coming to the Cooperstown area!

One of the very best short term rental properties we have ever stayed at

This property is so nicely done. The owners have such a good attention to detail. Notable features we appreciated were the amazing coffee bar, incredibly comfortable beds, large TVs, remodeled great room, outdoor fireplace, and fun game room downstairs. Location is also perfect. Close to Cooperstown and has a picture perfect lake nearby. This is one of the very best short term rental properties we have ever stayed in and we 100% recommend staying here!

No detail overlooked!

The Silliman House was perfect! The hosts thought of every detail to make our stay wonderful. The house is very spacious and nicely decorated. We loved the coffee bar in the kitchen and the fun video games in the basement. The outdoor deck and firepit area were also wonderful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would rent this house again.

Great stay!

We were in town for my son to play at Dreams Park. We have been to Cooperstown multiple times and this is by far the nicest rental we’ve ever had. The house is very nice and updated. It was extremely clean and neat. The owners were very accommodating. They communicated with us before our stay and during to make sure everything was ok. Overall it was just a fantastic stay.

Perfect Gem!

Home owners Phil and Kelly were awesome and very welcoming. House was super clean with a well stocked kitchen. Location was great for visiting the Baseball Hall of Fame. Even though it rained all weekend, the home was well stocked with fun board games and the game room downstairs provided great family time! Thank you Phil and Kelly!

Top notch stay with amazing amenities and super clean.

The house was so clean and nice with every amenity you could think of. Even the little details were not overlooked. Perfect for convenience and ease. The hosts were very thorough and nice from beginning to end. Very accommodating if we had any questions or needs. I would definitely recommend staying here and would stay here again. Great location, only 15 min from Cooperstown Dreams Park.

The Sillman Experience

When we arrived, power was out due to heavy snow on powerlines. The hosts Kelly and Phill Scrambled to Get the house on a generator, which was absolutely sufficient enough to make us comfortable. Everything in the house worked beautifully as it should and we enjoyed our stay to the fullest with great communication from the house.

Perfect for a Group

We are a group of 6 woman that take an annual girls trip. This year we drove to the Silliman House and it was perfect for our needs. Perfect number of beds and plenty of space for us to sit around the table to eat/play games. The game room downstairs and wireless charging options through the house were great bonuses. Not to mention the owners met us at the home for a quick tour and they were nothing but nice and charming. Great proximity to local wineries and restaurants too. Would definitely stay here again if we ever find ourselves out that way again!

Amazing Home away from Home

The Silliman House was amazing from beginning to end. The comfort and amenities offered fulfilled all our needs and then some. Philip and Kelley were amazing hosts. They checked in on us regularly and were available any time of day to address any concerns and also offered insider suggestion for day activities and food options. They genuinely cared for our family’s experience at Cooperstown and we are looking for to the next time we can stay!

Amazing

We had a wonderful time there! The property was just as described and the owners were so kind and very accommodating. One of the best stays we’ve ever had for a short term rental. Home was spacious and had lots of amenities available for us to access. Both parks were 15 minutes away so that was very convenient as well! Most restaurants and the Walmart are also very convienent my nearby as well. We really enjoyed our trip and hope to come back and stay at the Silliman House again when our 10 yr old comes to Cooperstown in 2 years.

Perfect Cooperstown Baseball Family Home

We had an amazing experience staying here. Perfect place to come back from ASV (short drive) and recharge in between games and unwind after games. Everything is super clean, organized, stocked and cozy and inviting. The hosts are super on top of everything and welcoming. Beautiful deck and backyard to BBQ and 5 minute walk to Goodyear Lake siblings to swim or fish. There’s also a fun game room too for kids and Dads to hangout. 5 minutes away from post office, grocery stores & gas stations. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful place with us!

Wonderful Stay in a Beautiful Home!

We had the pleasure of spending a wonderful week at the Silliman House in July 2024. The home is beautiful and looks just like the pictures. The hosts are amazing and very responsive to any questions or concerns. The amenities for kids are amazing, from the game room in the basement to plenty of games in the bunk room. They really thought of everything in the home, even providing to-go coffee cups and skewers to roast marshmallows over the fire pit! The home is very centrally located, being a quick 15 minute drive to Dreams Park and a 10 minute drive to Oneonta. We highly recommend this home to future visitors to the area!

Perfect!

We just stayed at the Silliman house for a week while our son played at All-star village. The house is absolutely perfect- they ah e thought of everything you could need for your trip, and are helpful and responsive to their guests during their stay. The game room was perfect for younger siblings, beds were comfortable, and the house was quiet and cozy. We were about 15 minutes from all-star, making it easy for us to get to games. We plan to stay again when our younger son goes to Cooperstown on a few years!

Perfect for Cooperstown ASV

We had a great week at the Silliman House! Kelly and Phil met us at the house to check in, at 9pm! Gave us all the info we needed. All of the extra touches in the house were appreciated. Light switches and remotes all labeled to know what controlled what. Wireless charging stands on all of the nightstands. And a lovely welcome basket including a custom travel coffee mug! Would highly recommend to anyone going to Cooperstown ASV or Dreams Park!

Perfectly appointed home in the country.

The Silliman House is a terrific place to stay in the Cooperstown area. The house is well appointed and has virtually every amenity you could ask for. And honestly, if there was something you needed that the house didn't have, hosts Phil and Kelly would take care of it. The house feels brand new and a lot of thought and effort has gone into making the space as warm and welcoming as possible. Phil and Kelly are fully committed to taking care of their guests and it show in every detail. Looking forward to a return trip!

Beautiful serene upstate NY home

My family and I stayed at Silliman House while our boys were competing at Cooperstown Dreams Park. The house was perfectly appointed with all you need to relax for the little time you are off the fields! It was immaculately clean, better than I could've wished for. It was stocked with coffee, paper towel and other products you'd need. The beds were comfy, and the hosts were superb in communication and recommendations. They live next door and were very kind to every need (we had none - the house was amazing). The house is a short 15 min drive to the fields, and its a lovely drive to take. We wish we could experience Cooperstown again - and would love to stay here again!

A stay we won't soon forget!

Absolutely first class property and hosts. My family (wife, 15 year old daughter and in-laws) were in town for a tournament at Dreams Park for our son. To say this was the best VRBO property we've ever stayed at wouldn't be doing it justice. Phil and Kelly have thought of everything when it comes to making your stay as enjoyable and comfortable as possible. From the integrated sound system allowing you to fill the property with your favorite tunes to the arcade like experience on the lower level keeping the kids (and adults) entertained, the house provides everything you would ever want or need for your stay. Place is immaculate and if we ever travel back to Cooperstown, the Silliman house is where we'll be staying! Thank you, Phil and Kelly. You two are the best!

Perfect Cooperstown Stay!

The Silliman House was perfect! Phil and Kelly were great hosts and their home was more than accommodating. The spacious living room allowed all 7 of us to relax comfortably. The cleanliness and modern upgrades made the stay even better. There was no need for us to pull out our numerous phone chargers as they provided those in just about every room. The property is beautiful, peaceful and well maintained. We even had deer visit us while outside enjoying the fire and eating s’mores. Bonus was the laundry room in the basement and play room that the kids enjoyed playing foosball, air hockey and arcade games. The area allows for a beautiful drive to Cooperstown Dreams Park. We were very happy with stay and could not have thanked Phil and Kelly more for their quick response time and checking in to make sure our stay was pleasant.
