Perfect spot for a long weekend at Cooperstown…
We loved, loved this lake home for our family. My children were able to fish from the dock each day and take out the paddle boat and paddle boards. It was the perfect getaway for our family of 5.

Buck list trip
This trip was a Bucket List trip to the Baseball Hall of Fame. My husband is a huge baseball fan but had never gone to Cooperstown. We had a great trip, the house location was perfect and the view was beautiful!

There's No Place Like Home (plate)
Very relaxing and quiet. House was very clean. We were so happy with our experience that we booked the home for another week the following year. The house does not have a washer and dryer, but if you pack knowing this you will be fine.

This home is a great little home for a family to enjoy a getaway in the woods. Only 12 minutes from the cooperstown feilds it is perfect for a family needing a place during the tournament. The lake is quiet and clean and a wonderful place to relax. The house is clean and stocked with anything you might need! Enjoy.

Another amazing stay with the kids
The weather didn't cooperate and even with that we all had a BLAST! The kids were in and out of the lake all day and we booked for next year an even longer stay. This place really is a hidden gem!

Cooperstown baseball trip
I couldn’t be more pleased with our accommodations at this Lakeside Retreat. The place was clean, well stocked, and absolutely perfect. The property manager Lisa made sure we had everything we could possibly need and even threw in extras like ingredients for s’mores, extra propane for the gas grill, and extra firewood for the outdoor pit. We spent our days watching the kids play baseball and our evenings fishing off the dock, boating, and enjoying the outdoor space to the fullest. We already can’t wait to go back!

Autumn Lake Vibes near Cooperstown
We traveled to the Cooperstown area as a celebration trip for my husband‘s birthday. He chose the trip destination, the Baseball Hall of Fame, and this was a great location/cottage to use as “home base” for a few days. We thoroughly enjoyed exploring the areas of Cooperstown, Milford and Cherry Valley. It was a laid-back time of year to be a tourist in this area. We have used VRBO several times, and give this cottage 4 stars for a couple of reasons. I would highly recommend that you thoroughly read the description of the cottage and acquaint yourself with all of the idiosyncrasies of this rental. I am usually pretty good at doing that but there were a couple of things I missed. The running/tapwater is not potable, however drinking water is provided in a large cooler. Not a huge inconvenience however something to be aware of. We were not informed ahead of time that the dock would be taken out of the water at the time we arrived. My husband is a fisherman as well and was looking forward to sitting on the dock to fish and was not able to do that. Basically all of the outdoor amenities were closed down for the season and we were not informed of that. It was very cold at night low of 29° and the heating was by a woodstove which took us a little while to figure out, no central heat or A/C. Having never operated a woodstove it was a bit of an adventure! Two things I would recommend to the owner are more comfortable seating in the living room - need a new couch and the linens and bed pillows were a bit shabby. That being said, we enjoyed the cottage by the lake, the view is fantastic and the proximity to all attractions in the area worked for us!
