We recently held a guys weekend at the G T Summerhouse. What a great venue for this! The house was spotless and there was plenty of room for everyone to sleep. The property itself was incredible -- lots of room for us to throw the baseball/football/frisbee around and hit pop flies. We also really enjoyed exploring the hills and the creek. Theresa and Gary were incredibly welcoming and very helpful in making this a memorable trip. A really fantastic experience.

Looking for a place to stay while our grandson played at a Cooperstown tournament, we found the GT Summer house - and what a find! Quaint, exceptionally clean, beautiful area and lovely, hospitalble hosts, this was the perfect home away from home for our family. The grandsons and nephew LOVED the outdoors and fishing stream - we loved the privacy, quiet and views. All the comforts we like with thoughtful consideration including very comfortable beds, fully equipped kitchen and additional entertainment items for the boyz - fishing poles, sports equipment, horseshoes, and a great fire-pit! Gary and Theresa are so warm, helpful and considerate --- they loved showing our 'city boys' things around the farm and shared wonderful veggies from their garden which we eagerly enjoyed. If you are looking for a special place, immaculate and well-cared for, grab this wonderful home and location first --- the pictures just don't do it justice. Highly recommend this great place!

GT Summerhouse is perfect if you are looking for a country getaway, baseball hall of fame location, or are participating in the Dreams Park Baseball tournament. The new house comfortably sleeps 8 and compared to houses our friends rented it is not cluttered with full time resident items. Owners Theresa and Gary are great, before you visit or while on property have them make a "lucky horseshoe" for your Dreams Park team! We had one made for our team and the boys won the skills competition and finished 7th overall in the tournament. They had fun and touched the "lucky horseshoe" before every game... it works! One more bonus... the Cooperstown Bat Company factory is 1.5mi away and you can visit to watch them make wood bats, very cool and a hidden non-tourist spot in the small town of Hartwick. You can't go wrong with GT Summerhouse, we will be back in 2-years for the 12u tournament!

What an absolute gem of a place. Gary and Theresa feel more like family then someone just renting a place. Very very clean and spacious house and wonderful yard - fire pit included. Very close to Cooperstown and Dreams Park. I would not hesitate to suggest this house to anyone looking to stay in Cooperstown.

The house was clean, new, comfortable and roomy. The huge lawn, bbq and firepit were awesome. My daughter had a great time fishing in the creek. The house is very close to Cooperstown, the Dreams Park and anything else you need. Theresa and Gary were great and very accommodating. I highly recommend this house.

I can't say enough good things about the house and Theresa and Gary. The house was perfect. Clean, comfortable, spacious, and homey. We played sports all afternoon on the huge front lawn and BBQ'd on the front porch under a clear star-filled sky at night. Close to Cooperstown and the grocery store. Really, couldn't have asked for a better spot to get away to. Theresa and Gary were wonderful as well. Kind, thoughtful, and available should you need anything. And, as the other person commented, the eggs were delicious. Thanks and will definitely look forward to staying here again.
