Perfect for Cooperstown visit!
We came to Cooperstown with our neighbors whose son was playing at Cooperstown Dreams Park for the week. This was such a great spot for us to come back and relax after venturing out for the day or watching lots of baseball games. The pics of this property don't do it justice. It's gorgeous. The owners are right next door and available if you need anything. There is a pond that's perfect for fishing. There are kayaks provided, and a great fire pit with all the wood you could hope to burn. The owners have thought of everything. The barn has plenty of space for everyone and is fully stocked with everything you'll need. The house is about 10 minutes from downtown Cooperstown, and maybe 20 minutes from the field. Super convenient. It's very close to Glimmerglass state park. We also checked out Howe Caverns which was only about 40 minutes away. Great location, great house. We hope to be back here in 2 years when our son will hopefully be playing here!

Awesome property
We loved staying here! Gorgeous property. Excellent location only about 12 min from Cooperstown Dreams park. Had everything we needed for two families. We used the fire pit, kayaked on the lake and played whiffle ball on the expansive, beautiful grounds. Would highly recommend this property.

It is just my husband and I and we still work for a living. However we have the luxury of working from home so can be around for anything you need or want.

Really important for you to know
We didnt build this home intending it to be a rental so it is built with quality. We don't sleep or live in there and move out when you want to rent it or pick up some check rental money by renting it out when out of season. It is just truly a vacation rental waiting for you to come and enjoy the area and your time here.

We can comfortably sleep 9 guest in beds 6 pairs and 3 singles and we don't allow blow up beds or sleeping on our sofas

This is why our home is immaculate and we want guest who will appreciate this and keep it this way.

Why they chose this property

WITHOUT QUESTION ONE OF THE NICEST PROPERTIES IN THE AREA.......I WOULD SAY ONE OF THE TOP 3 IN COOPERSTOWN. WELL KNOWN IN THE AREA. ONCE A BUSH (BEER) ESTATE.

What makes this property unique

PEACE, QUIET, LUXUARY, IMMACULATE.
WE HAVE WEEKLY STAFF TAKING CARE OF THE HOME AND GARDENS TO MAKE SURE THE MAINTANCE IS KEPT UP AND YOU’RE STAYS WITH US IS THE BEST
